Pillow Talk by Maya Banks
Chase and Zoe are a couple that know each other through and through and they tell each other their secret sexual fantasies. So when Chase’s birthday is coming up, Zoe wants to give him one of this fantasies, but she needs help and turns to their two housemates and friend Brody and Tate. Being the man he is Chase wants to fulfil one of Zoe’s fantasies too and Brody and Tate are just the right men to get involve.

Neither Chase nor Zoe could have imagined the outcome when they started these fantasies, it seems Brody and Tate both feels more then friendship for Zoe. Will this destroy their friendship or Chase relationship with Zoe?

Pillow Talk by Maya Banks was hot, I’ve read some of her books before so I knew what to expect, but damn she wrote one hell of an erotica story. She created a realistic storyline, where the reader will be drawn into the moment they start.

Chase and Zoe are a great couple; they love each other so much that they want to try to fulfil some of their fantasies. But it requires more men, so they invite their two best friends into their sexual fantasies.

I can relate to fulfilling your fantasies, but when you want to make it a permanent one at the end, that is the thing I have a little trouble with. This sexual relationship between three men and one woman can cause jealousy and I wonder if that is worth putting you relationship on the line with your boyfriend. I do love the story and found it very entertaining.

Her Fantasy Men by Shayla Black
Kelsey has three men in her life and she loves them all, her best friend Tucker, her neighbour Rhys and her boss Jeremy. She would love to have a relationship, but because she cannot choose between them, she keeps her love a secret and act normal around them. But when she gives in and spend one night with Rhys, the other two aren’t far behind.

Neither of the men are willing to step down and let Kelsey be happy with one of them, so she has to make a decision they all are happy with, but it won’t be without any struggles.

Her Fantasy Men by Shayla Black was one hell of an erotica story. I found myself drawn into their emotions and decisions from the start.

Tucker, Jeremy and Rhys are three different men and for some reason I can understand Kelsey’s attractions towards them, but as individuals not all three together.

Almost from the beginning I found myself drawn to Tucker and really wanted Kelsey to choose one of them and of course my heart was cheering for Tucker. But we all know that authors has a mind of their own and we cannot have a say in this, so she created a situation that all four of the character would be happy with.

I really enjoyed reading this and at the end I found myself at peace with the choice Kelsey made, even though I would have done something different.

Maya Banks - Sweet Temptation

Micah Hudson has lost his wife and best friend in a car accident. So he left Miami and their memories behind and moves to another city and start over. But Micah has special needs, so his membership to the exotic sex club gives him the opportunity to explore those needs, without falling in love again. Then one night he notice a beautiful woman in the club, receiving pleasure in a way Micah wants to give. But the moment the woman turns around and sets her eyes on him, he is in total shock…it’s his late best friend’s sister Angelina.

Angelina Moyano’s left alone after her brother died in a tragic car accident. She understands that Micah left her behind too, in order to forget his pain. She grew up with Micah, her brother David and their shared lover Hannah, but now she’s alone. She knows Micah comes back once a year to mourn his loved ones and she has the feeling that this year she will see the last of him. So it’s time to find out if Micah has feelings for her or not, so she leaves Miami too and follows him, so she can prove to him how much he means to her.

Sweet Temptation by Maya Banks is the fourth novel in the Sweet Series and just like the previous one, a very steamy novel.

Micah has been one of my favourite characters from the first novel and I was very curious to read about his past and why he joined the exotic club, what his sexual desires were…well I definitely know now….he has some wicked sexual fantasies and I have to say Angelina is just the woman for him. She already knows everything about his past and the way he shared his wife Hannah with his best friend Davis. Angelina has a strong personality, she leaves everything behind to follow the man she loves, and not really knowing she will put them both in danger by doing that.

It seems when Micah and Angelina finally found a way to give their relationship a change; a stalker makes his presence know. This man won’t stop to have her for himself, even if that means getting rid of Micah once and for all.

I only can say that this is one hell of a steamy, but also an emotional novel. You will be taken on a roller coaster, but the ride will be worth it. Micah turns out to be the man I thought he would be.

Maya Banks - Sweet Seduction

Julie Stanford had always has the hots for Nathan Tucker, but he doesn’t seem to realize it. So Julie decides to give Nathan one more chance to take the bait before giving up on him completely. Julie is going to give him one last “hot” massage to remember before moving on with her life, even if that means without Nathan. Her two best friends Faith and Serena have already put her in contact with Damon Roche, to fulfil her sexual fantasy.

Nathan Tucker is very frustrated after his last “sexual” massage Julie gave him and then fires him as a client. But when he hears about her fantasy and her contact with Damon Roche, he’s angry. No other man is going to give Julie her fantasy, it doesn’t matter what he has to do to be that man.

Sweet Seduction by Maya Banks is the third novel in her Sweet Series and another great novel, although I have to say that this was no my favourite.

Julie Stanford is the stubborn one of the three friends, she likes Nathan Tucker for ages, and every small hint she throw his was is ignored. And after her last attempt, she has enough. She wants what her friends have, so she decides to fulfil her fantasy, hoping to forget Nathan. But she’s in for a ride, because Nathan cannot forget Julie and her last massage.

Nathan will do anything in his power to be that man in her fantasy. He heard that she wants a threesome; luckily for Nathan she will be blindfolded the whole time, so he can take the place of one of those men. Even though he doesn’t want to share her with another man, he asks Micah to be the other one.

First I thought Nathan and Julie weren’t the perfect couple, because for some reason they couldn’t find the way to each other. But from the moment Nathan hears about her fantasy and start planning his seduction, the storyline gets interesting. It was great to read about their sexual seduction and their realization that this was a fantasy and that they belong together in real life.

I also love the little look into Micah’s world, because I’ve been dying to read this story from the first novel in this series. Thank goodness Micah’s book is next.

Maya Banks - Sweet Persuasion

Serena has her own business, she helps people to fulfil their dreams and it’s very successful. But Serena has a wild fantasy of her own and when she is with her best friend Faith and Julie one night, she confides them with her fantasy. Serena wants to be owned by a man, giving him complete control and let him love and cherish her.

Her friend Faith puts her in contact with Damon Roche, the owner of the club “The House”, where men and women can fulfil their sexual fantasies. When Damon hears Serena’s fantasy he knows he found the woman he’s waiting for all his life. Now he has to convince her to let him be that man and make it a permanent relationship.

Sweet Persuasion by Maya Banks is the second novel in her Sweet Series and another steamy hot novel.

Serena is an independent strong woman, who has a successful business, but there is something missing in her life, because she has a wild fantasy and doesn’t really know how to fulfil it. The only thing she wants is to have a man for a time being, who will own her in every way, giving him total control of her life. When she meets Damon she isn’t really sure if another man is capable of that job, in her heart she wants him.

Damon Roche always had a dream of finding that one particular woman who isn’t afraid to let herself go and let him control her in every way possible. When Serena contacts him and tells him about her fantasy, he knows she is the one. It will take some time for him to convince her to let their temporally relationship go and make it a permanent one. Luckily for Damon their mutual friends will do anything to help them on their path.

The love and trust between Serena and Damon is huge, it’s great to see Damon in command but with Serena’s interest on top, he will make sure her pleasure comes first. I have to say, I really enjoy reading this book because the characters are awesome, but I have to be honest I couldn’t give myself to a man in that way.

It was great to see the other characters again, Faith and Gray are a fabulous couple, Micah is growing more and more; he is definitely one of my favourites. But I also cannot wait to see more of Julie, Nathan, Connor and Cole. I hope Miss Banks will write stories about them all.

But that’s not all, he finds himself attracted to Faith Malone, his boss’s daughter and the one who could give him the information he needs to solve this murder. But can he use that information when he knows he could loose Faith forever?

Sweet Surrender by Maya Banks is the first novel in her Sweet Series and I have to say its one hell of a book full of passion, danger and true friendship.

When Gray starts to work at Malone and Sons Security he has one goal on his mind, to get as much information out of Faith Malone and hope to solve his partner’s murder as soon as possible. But he never dreamed to find the love of his life.

Faith is happy with her life, but at night she is craving for the touch of a man, but not like any other woman, she want a dominant man who can call the shots in the bedroom teaches her to be submissive. In order to fulfil her dream she makes an appointment at “The House, a mansion where those dreams can come true.

When Gray finds out what Faith is doing, he cannot ignore the feeling inside him. If Faith’s wants a dominant man in the bedroom, then it should be him and him alone!

Holy Moly, I love this book…where can I find someone like Gray…I’m not a submissive person, but after reading this book you keep wondering if you should try it. I love Faith, after a rough childhood she is finally happy and when she misses something in her life she isn’t afraid to go after it, even if that means go to a club to see if that scene is something for her.

I’m glad to know that there are more books in this series, because I really want to find out more about Micah, Nathan, Connor and Damon, because those men are HOT. You can sense that is a story behind all of them and I’m looking forward to find out what that story is.
