Ecstasy/ Bound and Determined/ Dark Desires/ A Lady's Preference
(Paperback)
Do yourself a favor. Buy this book, but save Robin Schone's "A Lady's
Pleasure" for last. If only it were a full-length novel! "Captivated" by
Beatrice Small seems to suggest that erotica is best served in a
fantasy setting. It didn't take long before the incessant focus on the
Prince's manhood became laughable. The "hero" of Susan Johnson's "Bound
and Determined" was so vulgar at the beginning of the story that I
never came to care for him. If you like lots of bondage and what
amounts to mental abuse, you may enjoy Thea Devine's "Dark Desires."
Too bad the "hero" couldn't figure out a more romantic way than keeping
his unwilling wife naked and in a thrall collar to make her love him. I
won't deny that the first three stories lack in plenty of sex. They're
just completely devoid of heart. Robin Schone proves time and again
that erotic tales can have emotional depth, that the two people
involved can truly care for each other and increase the depth of that
caring even as they satisfy each other sexually. In "A Lady's
Pleasure," Robert Coally is a true hero and Abigail a true heroine.
Their happy ending was the only one that brought me a sense of joy.
Thank you, Robin.

Five Stars For Robin
Schone's "A Lady's Pleasure"!!!!!!!!!!!, August 4, 1999
Captivated:
Ecstasy/ Bound and Determined/ Dark Desires/ A Lady's Preference
(Paperback)
While the cover of this book announces it as "Tales of Erotic Romance" I
found "romance" in only one of the four stories, "A Lady's Pleasure" by
Robin Schone. While the other three stories were erotic and
titillating there was no feeling of romance or real emotional
connection between the characters where love or relationships are
concerned - bondage and degredation to be sure - but not romance."A
Lady's Pleasure" is the true definition of "Erotic Romance". It
combines tenderness between two people, emotion, the bonding of two
souls and beautifully written erotic sex, as well as some great subtle
humor and dialogue. I do not think I have ever seen the act of sex (in
all it's forms) described so graphically and in such a beautiful way.
This story truly touched my soul. The first time I read this
story I loved it, the second time I savored it and felt it. It will
satisfy your erotic pleasures, make you laugh and make you cry too. Robin
Schone is an exquisite writer as witnessed in "Awaken My Love" and her
latest, "The Lady's Tutor", but to just describe her writing as erotic
would be to do her an injustice for she is truly the reigning queen of
ROMANTIC erotica. I believe that even women who love romance reading
but do not particularly like erotica would adore this story as well as
Ms. Schone's other work. It is tender, loving, and the sex, while
EXTREMELY HOT and erotic is written in a way as to be appropriate to a
loving and sexual relationship. The hardest thing about
describing Ms. Schone's writing is that it is INdescribable! Her
honesty, uninhibited, and loving views on romance and sex are truly a
breath of fresh air in the romance genra. Do yourself a favor, buy
this book and get to know ROBIN SCHONE!!!!!!!!!!!!
