Publisher's summary

I just want a taste of you. Or a touch. My fantasies about you plague my every waking hour. My only comfort is imagining that similar fantasies might obsess you too. When young librarian Gwendolynne Price starts finding increasingly erotic love notes to her in the suggestion box at work, she finds them both shocking and liberating. But who is her mystery admirer and how long will he be content to just admire her from afar...?

Bravo Awsome Narration and great writing!

The performance from Imogen Church was incredible! She reads so well you think you are at a movie watching the story unfold. The book was interesting, characters very likeable, I could actually see this story being played out in non-fiction. The writing was hot and erotic w/out being gross, predictable, unrealistic or stupid (as some erotic scenes can get). There was humor in Guendolen's first party thoughts that she frequently shared, created a little suspense all while the writing created vivid depictions of the story.

I listened to this book by myself first and liked it so much I thought my wife would like to hear it as well. So I listened again with her while recently driving on a trip. She enjoyed it and I equally enjoyed it the second time as well.

Enjoyable. sweet and sexy.

Any additional comments?

Nice and light. A little like 50 shades but not too much. Something i will listen to again.

"You've got mail!"

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?

Absolutely! This a delightfully sweet and sexy story. A believable, different twist to the usual erotica books. The story gradually pulls you in through the erotic notes and emails. The characters are regulars human beings, size 16 libarian pursued by "nemesis," living out their sensual dreams.

Who was your favorite character and why?

Professor. Portia describes this character well. He is intelligent, famous in his work, strong, well built, well endowed, creative, fun, and thoughtful man.

What does Imogen Church bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?

Imogen has done a fabulous job portraying the characters!

Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?

I did neither laugh or cry, but it was a lovely story with a sexy twist.

please please please More Portia de Costa ASAP

Just amazing and utterly brilliant.

This is now on my top 10 favorites list. It's creative, sexy, erotic as hell, tender, loving, funny and very different. I am so glad I found this book and the author because
it's always a bright spot in my day when I find an original story that isn't just about the sex but actually has a wonderful and clever story.

What a delight!

I really love this book for so many reasons. Gwendolynne is fun, spunky and grabs on to life (and love) with both hands. And the book is of course very sexy and sensous. The narrator is doing a superb job and I sincerely hope Audible will publish more of Portia Da Costas books!

Really good, different.

I really liked how this story was told. Kept me interested all the way through.

Warning "TOTAL BLUSHFEST' Hotter than hot!

Would you listen to In Too Deep again? Why?

Absolutely YES! The combination of Da Costa's intriguing, romantic ,character of Gwendolyn and the narration of Imogen Church is inspired......and scorchingly SEXY! It overwhelms from the second you press play.

What was one of the most memorable moments of In Too Deep?

Gwen's reading of "the Letter" to the Professor ...."Oh my...."

What does Imogen Church bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?

Her voice in the mind of Gwendolyn is a sultry purr. You feel the silence of the library, the whispers of voices, the clicking of high heels on stone steps. In the quiet of the library she turns up the heat to a constant burn. This has to be one of the sexiest books I have ever listened to. Her voice transports you and never disappoints ! The second I finished this book I looked for more from the narrator and author.....as soon as I cooled off!

If you were to make a film of this book, what would be the tag line be?

I'm not really sure you could make a film of this book....Not a mainstream one anyway......Well.......maybe in France.
How about: In Too Deep "EROTICALLY BRILLIANT"

Any additional comments?

With all the pseudo sexy FSOGish books it seems every publisher is racing to the shelves Erotica is definitely the new black. In Too Deep is one of my favorite of this genre so far. No copycat here! It is an original romantic story with witty, sexy, intelligent, entertaining characters who sizzle through the amazing velvet voice of Imogen Church.

Who could it be?

Living quiet and safe Qwendolynne starts receiving very explicit notes from a secret admirer. This excites her and she thinks she knows who her man is, but does she really? As she imagines her dream lover you’re swept along with her and you wonder if she’s right. As the tension builds it makes you anxious because you do wonder if she is correct as she enters into an affair with him.

It’s an interesting listen but not great. I would save my credit for another choice and purchase this one if it’s on sale.
