Sex with a mysterious stranger aboard a train leads Rita Holly to an initiation into the exclusive and secretive Mount club. Sophisticated and deviant rituals await Rita, as do the endless intrigues and power struggles deep within the heart of the organization. Rita learns that membership of the Mount Club is not for the sexually repressed. During her initiation, sex with her new lover from the train, Edward, is forbidden but Alex the dance instructor is happy to take his place and Leo the zoo keeper is happy to encourage Rita's animal instincts. With more and more titillating punishments in store and the club's sexy head Vivienne intent on her failing, will Holly succeed in her lengthy and lurid initiation?

I received this book as a review copy in return for an honest review.
What an enjoyable book to read. It starts off with two strangers coming together in an erotic encounter when the power goes out and their train is stopped. And while the train eventually makes it back to the station, the erotic train ride has just begun. The book takes the reader through a variety of adult situations as the two main characters try to develop a relationship. While the sex was steamy the plot kept you reading right until the end because Ms Grace has weaved a tale complete with cast of very interesting and unique characters, a good vs. evil plot with a need for a happy ever after and lots of drama. Due to the caliber of her writing and the depth of the story line, readers are kept hanging until the very end. Well done. I would definitely recommend this book to those who enjoy erotica that also has a bit of substance to it.

The Initiations of Ms. Holly
May 30 2011
By Loves FAB Romance
- Published on Amazon.com
Format:Paperback
Rita Holly is on a train when the power goes out. She's feeling claustrophobic, but lucky for her, Edward, the gentleman who bumps into her in the dark aisle, wants to help her out...a hot kiss to take her mind off things soon leads to mind-blowing sex, on the train, and when they part, she realizes she never even saw his face.
Once she's home, she wants to find him again. Her roommate playfully texts him, pretending to be Rita, and he texts her back that he'd like to see her again. They arrange to meet at The Mount, an exclusive club that is rumored to be a sex club. Rita is excited to be invited, and once there she's overwhelmed by the opulence and sexuality of the place. She soon learns that there are rules, and if she wants to be with Edward, she must follow them. If she is well-behaved, she'll be invited to become a member, at which time she will be able to see Edward's face. In the meantime, she must go through an initiation period with each of the members.
My thoughts:
I'm going to be up front, I did not finish this book. I like reading erotica, but for me there was just too much sex. I like sex in my books - lots of it. But The Initiations of Ms. Holly wore me down. I read 74% of the book before I set it down for good. I think I would have enjoyed this book much more if it had been a collection of short stores instead of one long one.
There was also no real character development - what is the basis of the attraction between the main characters? I know she eventually decides she's doing it as an expose for her magazine, but it doesn't feel true - this reader knows she's doing it for Edward. Why does Vivian, the Mistress of the Mount, hate Rita so much? Why does Edward want Rita so much that he'll endure whatever Vivian dishes out? Halfway through, Rita's mother becomes an issue - she's stalking Rita? It was a bit too much to throw into the plot. I also found the word the author used for her sexy bits - a "pout" - to be distracting. I've never heard that expression; I asked on twitter and checked urban dictionary but couldn't find anything. (I am still curious about where it came from if anyone knows)
The sex in The Initiations of Ms. Holly was very steamy - if you're looking for a very sexy read this might be a good choice; it was just not a good book for me.

Great book, even if you're not into erotica

Format:Paperback
I read this book based on a recommendation. Although I don't tend to love erotica, this book was really good. It is so very well written. The plot is great. It would be great even without all the juicy bits (which I think certainly can't be said of all erotica novels). KD Grace is an excellent writer and, although she is great at writing erotica, I'd love to read a non-erotic novel by her, as well!

Very Enjoyable!

Format:Kindle Edition
This was my first reading experience with erotica! I was not disappointed at all! K.D. weaves a tale of mystery as she takes you through Miss Holly's experiences. As the plot evolves, the author manages to entwine erotic scenes with modern mythology. The story takes a surprising and entertaining twist toward to the end. This is a very satisfying and enjoyable story!
