BURNING UP anthology

 

“The Flame” by Nina Bangs has Erotic Museum curator, Serenity So-Fine traveling back through time, from the year 2700 to present day, in order to collect the famed erotic sculpture, ‘The Flame’. But she arrives too much back in time, and the sculpture isn’t ready yet. Justin requires inspiration and he wants Serenity to provide it! He awakens in Serenity a passion which is dead in her time, and together they set each other alight. As passion soars, creativity is abundantly inspired! 

In Cheryl Holt’s “The Wedding Night”, a saucy American woman, Ellen Foster, decides to seduce her new husband, the Viscount Banbury, on their wedding night. Theirs is a marriage of convenience, his title for her money. But she is determined to make her husband fall in love with her and she will use every weapon nature has gifted her with, in order to win! Can any man, least of all her lusty husband, be able to resist this passionate temptress?! 

Kimberley Raye explores the world of erotic videos in her story, “Burn, Inc.”. When her partner suddenly elopes, producer Gerry Baxter has no choice than to don the mantle of director and shoot the last film in a series of ten for which the deadline is fast approaching. But this outwardly confident woman has little experience of passion and then a case of mistaken identity, leads her to experience the most sensuous night of her existence with a mysterious man, Logan. Is this love or just plain lust? 

In “Possessing Julia”, Patricia Ryan spins the tale of a widow who’s desperate to lose her virginity before she marries for the second time. But the man she hires to do the deed, is someone who makes her realize the true meaning of the word ‘passion’ and together they explore the world of love. But what about her betrothal? 

These four tales by four of today’s most versatile authors, are teasing, tempting and darn right interesting! Passion, longing and pleasure spill forth from these pages and make this volume a ‘burning’ read. Each story is from a different period in time, each evolves in a different manner, but they’re all equally compelling and affecting!! Simply delightful.
