Ok

I read these sorts of erotic candies shortly after having read a good, thick novel. I guess they represent my dessert. This particular one was,at times, good enough as a main course.

Missing the 2nd Half of the Best Story

I'm not the only reader who thinks that "Blue Light" by Aaron Travis might be the best gay sub/dom erotic story ever written; several well known critics of the genre have said so. The inclusion of that story was the reason I chose to listen to this audiobook. It was the last story in the collection, so I patiently waded through the other stories to get to "Blue Light". However, just as things are about to get interesting (and intense), the story cuts off and suddenly I'm listening to the very unwelcome voice of Susie Bright telling me what a wonderful job she did in selecting these stories. If the Audible Inc. was going to screw up, I really wish it had been on any other story in this collection.

Great Collection of Erotic Stories

The collection of stories here is pretty good. There is something for everyone. Several were down right hot. Highly recommended.

Let down

Extremely boring, it just didn’t keep my focus. Passion was slow. Narration was lacking a bit

Heads and tails above the rest!
