Dream Lover Anthology has 17 short erotica stories and all has been well written. They all are hot and steamy, just the way I like it when I read erotica. What I love about this novel is the difference in species the authors use.

Of course some stories were better than others, but that is normal when you have that many in one novel. I have to say that “Vanilla” was definitely one of my favourite; I cannot use the ingredient vanilla anymore without thinking about that steamy scene.

I have to say those authors done an amazing job with these very short stories, some of them had me right from the first paragraph, and there were only three stories that I really have mixed feelings about. Maybe it’s because of the weird mechanical devices they use.

I have to say this anthology very entertainment. So if you are looking for some small hot sexual stories and love to read about different species, then this is definitely the book for you.
