Sam Crescent is passionate about fiction. She loves a good erotic romance and so it only made sense for her to spread her wings and start writing. She began writing in 2009 and finally got that first acceptance in 2011 by Total-E-Bound.
She loved creating new characters and delving into the worlds that she creates. When she’s not panicking about a story or arguing with a character, she can be found in her kitchen creating all kinds of havoc. Like her stories the creations in the kitchen can be just as dubious but sometimes things turn out great.

"Taking Control" is the story of Melissa and Bruce.

Well, I wanted no menage. I got menage. I grumpy.

A married couple in which the wife is inhibited spices up their life by introducing dick #2.

Again, hot but not what I wanted atm. Also, a wife who is afraid of being labelled a slut made to deliberately go into a threesome to explore some wild fantasies.. there has to be some irony there.

My trying to end 2019 on a good note is going bad.

BRIEF SUMMARY
Melissa and Bruce have been married for five years. Everything about their marriage seems prefect, until the night Melissa faked her orgasm with her Husband. Bruce is shock and decides to take matters into his own hands with his wife’s sexual desire. Melissa’s childhood was sheltered, an also includes verbal abuse from her mother, which explains her innocence. Although she’s been married to Bruce for five years, she hasn’t allowed herself to let go.


THOUGHTS

This book will have you needing a shower when you’ve reached the end. The blurb for this book seems so innocent, but the author once again did not disappoint sexually with this erotica story. When Bruce wants to prove a point, he proves it. The night his wife faked her orgasm, he didn’t get mad, he got even the next day in his own way with a surprise that was extremely a turn on. Melissa begins her sexual journey throughout the story and it was exciting. The author never created a dull moment. The mixture of Melissa’s innocence and Bruce’s boldness and aggressiveness sexually, will have you at an all time peak.

Bruce’s best friend Chris was just as sexy and I really hope the author gives us his story, as I definitely would want to know his conclusion. Again, I praise the author’s ever growing talents with each erotica that she writes, along with her story lines involving couples and or married couples.

The story contains explicit language, graphic acts and an m/f/m scene. I would give this story a special Romance Novel Junkies rating of 2 D.R.I.Ps. Erotica fans will not be disappointed.

Story: GOOD
Intimacy: D.R.I.P (Don’t Read In Public) / Off the Charts SPICY
Enjoyment: GOOD
Novella: Short Read

Married for five years, Bruce can not believe his wife faked an orgasm. He always prided himself in giving his partners pleasure and this was his wife, his woman. Was he so off base, that he couldn't connect with her? Couldn’t give her what she needed? Melissa was taught that sex was a bad thing. Now she was having trouble letting go of her inhibitions and enjoying sex with her husband. As much as she loved him things had changed. She needed more. Bruce needed to change things, make things better for both of them. Make Melissa feel safe and comfortable with her sexuality and with him. And so their journey begins.

This story is short, fast paced and hot. I read this book in one sitting and was satisfied throughout. I liked the storyline for this story. I liked that Bruce was determined to satisfy his woman. I liked that Bruce was able to get Melissa out of her shell. He truly loved his wife and wanted her to open up and express and act on her desires.
The storyline for this book is easy to follow and a hot read.

Short story, there were a few kinks, literally and figuratively speaking. LOL! I actually wanted more of the novel itself, found that a lot was missing out but in the end the 'happy' ending we got made the novel great. I'd of loved to see it expanded though!
