I thought I knew everything there was to know about this book from the painfully hot cover photo by Nick Betts—painful because I read this book mostly on my lunch break in a busy pizzeria with no privacy for certain private functions. The book promises steamy true stories from bathhouses, back room bars and sex clubs. Bad Boys delivers and then some. I challenge any open-minded, adventurous man or woman to read this book and not get hot.
The opening story, Immersion by Bob Vickery is both erotic and heart breaking, as it tells of one man's long night before the days of sorrow that are to follow. Greg Wharton's Cock Sucking In America, is a surreal rhythm and cum soaked comedy of hallucinogenic yum. Another couple of my favorites include Steve Montagna's naughty yet poingent Freak Show, and Zach Addams's Boot-delicious Boot Black. Felice Picano's Expertise makes real the old adage "practice makes perfect" and is another reason why I think I'd give up a year or two off the end of my life to be the proud owner of my very own fleshy man meat (wants a penis of her very own).
The most memorable story in the lot, and given this lot that is saying something, has to be David May's Having Once known Abandon. May gives the reader a look into sex-club sex before anyone knew condoms were necessity, then he shows you after. I could go on like this forever, or at least until I have listed every single story in this anthology, but I wont. There isn't a single steamy tale to be found that isn't worth the time it took to read it.
This is what every anthology should be. Each story stands well on its own and is immediately, unmistakably different from the ones before and to follow it. Bad Boys doesn't just stop at well penned and raunchy. Every tale has something extra and all are my favorites. It is a perfect example of what can happen when anthology editors give more attention to spectacular writing and pacing than anything else.
If I were to devise a rating system wherein a gently used condom was the numerical equivalent of a one and a blindfold and handcuffs the numerical equivalent of a 9, Bad Boys would be a 10.
