Guilty Pleasures

by Maria Isabel Pita

Guilty Pleasures explores the passionate willingness of women throughout the ages to offer themselves up to the forces of love. Historical facts are seamlessly woven into intensely graphic sexual encounters journeying down through the centuries to the present and beyond. Beneath the covers of Guilty Pleasures you'll find eighteen erotic love stories with a profound feel for the times and places where they occur. An ancient Egyptian princess, a courtesan rising to fame in Athen's Golden Age, a Romanian Count's wicked bride, and many more are all one eternal woman in Guilty Pleasures.

"Maria Isabel Pita takes us through a collection of 18 erotic stories which capture the enthusiasm and passion of different women throughout the ages, with astounding precision. The author displays an unusual, albeit ingenious, imagination."—Women's Fiction Reviews

"Reaching across the continuum of time, space and history, the stories in this collection will sear into your consciousness and arouse within you an intensity of emotional and physical reactions... Anyone who relishes literary erotica will thoroughly enjoy this book!
—The Romance Studio

"Maria Isabel Pita is already one of the brightest stars in the erotic romance genre. If you’re unfamiliar with her work, she specializes in transporting her readers effortlessly between the past and present, while indestructable true love weaves its eternal spell on her characters’ minds and souls... What will amaze you, if not even alarm you, is Pita’s eye for detail and her uncanny feel for the everyday lives of her distant characters. When you read her stories of ancient lovers, for example, you will believe that Pita herself has visited those times and is merely recounting to you first-hand what she observed, endured, and felt while she was there... Guilty Pleasures is an absolute must for any fan of literary erotica."—Marilyn Jaye Lewis, Erotic Author’s Association

About the author

I was born in Havana, Cuba. My family moved to the U.S. when I was eight months old and I grew up in Fairfax, Virginia. Reading, writing and history have been my abiding passions ever since I can remember. In college, I majored in World History, and minored in English Literature and Cultural Anthropology. My most recent works are the Biblical Romance, "Dreaming in Egypt-The Story of Asenath" and Joseph, and the non-fiction "Lucid Dreams and the Holy Spirit."

Before becoming a practicing Catholic, I wrote several erotic romances. An experienced lucid dreamer, I am a member of the International Association For the Study of Dreams, and a regular contributor to the Lucid Dreaming Experience Magazine.
