5 Kisses, Recommended Read, TwoLips Reviews, Feb 1 2012
By Linda D. Crooks - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Simply Carnal (Paperback)
Reviewed for TwoLips Reviews, LLC. 5/5 Kisses, RECOMMENDED READ, 2 1/2 peppers (M/F/M, M/F/M/M, oral sex, anal sex, toys, D/s)For anyone following this series (and if you aren't you really should be), Simply Carnal is Helene's son, Christian Delornay's story. He's seen so much fornicating in his lifetime that it has ceased to be anything special for him. Elizabeth "Smith" comes to the pleasure house owned by his mother, hoping to meet with Helene. Elizabeth is bedraggled, says she's a widow, and is willing to sell her body because she has no other choice. Christian likes her spunk, but says he can't employ her in her present half-starved condition, but offers her a meal and bed for the night. He says to do any less or to let her starve to death would be bad for business. He has compassion but doesn't often let it show. A week later she's still there, feeling fortified by the food, shelter, and safety she has been provided. Helene tells Christian he doesn't have what it takes to run the pleasure house, and he says he has plans to make the business thrive despite the increasing competition from other establishments.
Then Helene meets Elizabeth and suggests Christian hire her as his assistant. A very straightforward Elizabeth tells him she's willing to do anything, including the use of her body. He still doesn't believe she's fully prepared to see what she would be getting herself into, but she assures him she has plenty of experience in carnal matters. As her situation is revealed, the tension is ratcheted up and so is the explosive passion between Elizabeth and Christian. The depth of characters in this series is amazing. I didn't even realize how much I had missed some of the secondary characters (Paul, for example) until I started reading this. Kate Pearce has a way of writing very empathetic characters that are also charismatic, sensual and delightfully sexy. And speaking of sexy, Ms. Pearce continues to deliver lava-hot sex, book after book. Grab the oven mitts for this one.
If you haven't read this series yet and you're a fan of edgy, erotic historical romance, you have no idea what you're missing. Simply Carnal has a twisted plot of deception, and life-changing passion. Brilliant!

Didn't live up to expectations, Mar 6 2012

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
I've been a big fan of this series since book 1. This one didn't even come close to good enough. Both the sex and the storyline were fairly boring and I just couldn't get into Christian or his problems. His issues with family make him seem a bit whiny and the attraction between him and Elizabeth is lukewarm at best. After paying the (imo) exorbitant price of $8 (for an e-book no less!) this should have and could have been much better.

Didn't live up to my expectations, Feb 26 2012
By Alphalover - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Simply Carnal (Paperback)
I was very disappointed in every aspect of this book. The plotline involving the mysterious Elizabeth was only mildly interesting. The hero, Christian, meets his half-brother, Richard, for the first time and I thought it was an unbelievable coincidence that Richard was involved in the mystery surrounding Elizabeth. There were about seven sex scenes and, oddly enough, I was only interested in the first one.We were introduced to a new sex club called Demon Club and I would like to read more about that in future books.
Despite my disappointment, this book is a keeper because it's part of a great series that I hope will never end. The next installment, book 8, is called Simply Voracious and is about one of the employees we've read so much about in previous books, Paul. It's due out in August 2012.
I received this from the publisher in exchange for an honest review.
Listmania!
