I picked this book to review because I have read other works by Cassandra Carr and have been thoroughly impressed every time. Now I have two new authors to add to my ‘must read’ list. That would be Cristal Ryder and Jami Davenport, of course.

I’m not going to go over each story in this book. That could get kind of lengthy with my usual long-winded self, and I want you to read the book much more than I want you to read my review. But let’s go with a general description.

This book is a collection of stories, which, as I’ve said in the past, are not always my favorite. But the way these authors worked this angle was superb, and I am frothing at the mouth to find other books like this – especially if it contains these authors. Cassandra Carr opens the collection with a story about Mara and Dmitri. It is beyond hot. I mean seriously, it sizzles and pops. Mara and Dmitri decide to go out to a park, sort of like a nature trail type of place with canyons and lots of semi hidden and not so hidden areas. They are a Dom/sub couple with a flair for exhibitionism. The story was terrific.

But here is where this collection is different – all of the stories after this one are connected, and all points start from Mara and Dmitri. It was so exciting to me to see how this played out, with all stories connected. And trust me – Cassandra Carr wasn’t the only star in this book. Cristal Ryder and Jami Davenport definitely made this an exhibitionist’s or voyeur’s dream come true, depending on which side of the line you may fall.

If you love reading about BDSM, outdoor sex, and exhibitionism, then this is the story you have been looking for. And on top of that these stories were all written with great heart and just the right amount of emotion to keep it all feeling real. This book didn’t at all feel like a collection of sex stories, aiming to just get you hot. It was fun to read, interesting to see how one act has such an erotic butterfly effect. And yes, every story scorched with its heat level. It was definitely a winning combination, and I really hope these authors get together for some more collection fun!
