It’s getting hot in here (so hot!)

July 6, 2015 by katie71483 11 Comments

WARNING: Alisha Rai’s GLUTTON FOR PLEASURE is an erotic romance with a higher percentage of scorching hot sex scenes than your usual romance novel. As in, probably 60-70% sex scene. If that is not what you’re looking for, put the book down and back far away, far, far, away. You may want to find one of those silver fire suits or asbestos gloves at the very least. This book will scorch your fingers right off.

Devi is the youngest of three sisters from an Indian family, and a gifted chef at the family’s restaurant. In spite of the fact that she is named after a powerful goddess, her mother and two older sisters treat her like she is incapable of managing her own life.

Above is an image of the goddess Devi. Notice the multiple arms. They’ll come in handy when Devi is enjoying herself with the two new men in her life, brothers Jace and Marcus. Devi’s sister Rana actually set them up in a meet cute having decided that her little sister needed to get laid. It was just supposed to be for a one night stand – the brothers are notorious for those – but the parties involved have an instant connection that goes deeper than that.

Since we’re talking bad boys, twin brothers who are pretty much identical, this is pretty much my default:

I’ll be the filling in that sandwich any day. Or at least give it serious consideration. (I honestly don’t understand how poly relationships can be successful. No judgement, it just seems like someone would always be getting the short end of the stick emotionally.) Seriously, who wouldn’t?

The brothers come with their own baggage to complicate matters, in addition to the objections of Devi’s family. I’m not going to go into more detail, because to say anymore would be to give away any parts of the plot that are not sex- or sex-related scenes. Since this is a romance novel at heart, the ending will surprise absolutely no one, but maybe there can be a surprise or two on the journey.

And with that, dear reader, I’ve accomplished something I thought impossible: I’ve completed my first cannonball. Thanks to all of you for being supportive and encouraging, but most importantly to Patty for being my partner in crime, enabler, sounding board, and friend.

A pop culture junkie, Katie's addiction to tragically bad romance novels is managed and supervised by Cricket, a 20lb. terrier mix. In addition, Katie is resolute in her belief that Evans is #BestChris and doesn't understand why people live where it snows. That shit is terrifying. View katie71483's reviews»

      Thanks, llp! I’d forgotten how much I love writing (especially snark!) until I signed up for CBR at the encouragement of Mrs. J, Mswas and emmalita. It’s been a blast.

        There is this book called The Chamomile Lawn by Mary Wesley that involves a twin threesome as well. It’s a strange British family drama with some tawdry sex. I have been trying to remember the title since yesterday. You know, if you wanted to develop a theme!

    Happy Cannonball! Your reviews are always so creative and entertaining, whether you write with Patty or by yourself. You should be proud of yourself, and please continue to review. Maybe read some things that you don’t need to snark so much about too, just so you don’t get bored?

    Cannonball!!!! Don’t you even think of stopping. We’re only half way through the year and there are so many books begging for snark.
