Erotica Book Reviews
Sunday Smutday is where we get naughty, nasty, and NSFW between the covers. If that doesn’t sound like your kind of thing, then you should most definitely stop reading now.
Seriously.
Still here?
Great!
Then let’s get kinky!
Trade Bait is the follow-up to November's Flesh Trade and it's just as crazy and just as confusing as the first - in a gender-bending good way. Having fallen for the wealthy woman's scheme, trapped in a woman's body until he agrees to become pregnant and give birth to her chid, Donnie has picked up the pieces of his life and is going on the offensive.
Gender is such a beautiful mess in this book, you really do have to read the first to appreciate it. First there's the body-swap itself, which has Donnie trapped in Marion's female form, Marion trapped in Phil's male form, and Phil happy occupying Donnie's male form. Confusing matters is the fact that Donnie has begun expressing himself as a transman in Marion's body, while Marion has been crossdressing as her feminine self in Phil's male body. To further confuse matters, Donnie and Marion address each other with their true names and genders, even as others refer to their bodies' respective names.
We delve deeper into the mystery in Trade Bait, exploring the history of the family curse that's led to all this confusion, while searching for a way to undo it without stranding one of them in the wrong body. That leads to some rather messy sex-magic that's grossly erotic and shamefully amusing, but the story ends on a cliffhanger before we can know whether it's worked. Taedis further develops another layer in this second book as well, revealing more about Amanda, the woman Donnie loved who triggered the whole mess, leaving us to wonder what she knew and when.
Most definitely not your typical body-swap sexual romp, Trade Bait is a drama, a mystery, and a romance - yes, with it's share of erotica - that will keep you guessing.

For its seeds of controversy, its seasoning of dubcon, and its flavor of social justice, Sweet Torture is actually a happier, more positive story than you may be expecting. Thena Davison crosses a line of kidnapping and confinement, but walks a careful line between seduction and coercion, stopping shy of sexual assault.
Sarah is an outspoken anti-LGBTQIA demonstrator with a massive online following, preparing to lead a protest against gay marriage when she's snatched off the street by a pair of women. Jessica and Emily are two young lesbians who intend to show the other woman what she's missing.
It's largely a story of exhibitionism and seduction, forcing Sarah to confront the beauty of women loving women and the passion of lesbian love. Their plan is to get her aroused, to break down her hatred, and to tease her into exploring what they believe is her hidden sexuality. It's a tense story in some ways, leaving the reader to wonder how far Jessica and Emily will push her, but it's also an incredibly sexy tale that leaves you hoping they may just be right about Sarah.
