What begins as a naughty little game of footsie under the conference table between Jack, an older lawyer, and his younger secretary, Liz, explodes into crazy, wild sex. Neither of them can afford to take chances, yet are unable to resist exploring their wildest fantasies. Liz soon finds herself dominated by Jack and does everything to satisfy him, at the risk of them being discovered.
Potent imagery, perfect for mature men or frustrated personal assistants.
Most erotic short-shorts concentrate on one thing and only one thing. “Fully Exposed” was a pleasant surprise. Larson manages to create potent imagery of actions, places, and emotions using a minimum of text. I could feel the tedium of a daily office routine, and felt like a voyeur with an overly large peephole during the adult action. Using a single sentence, the office desk was swept clean and I swear I heard the nameplate bouncing on the floor. Short-shorts usually begin with a poorly written ramp leading to extended adult action. Larson broke that template. The text flowed seamlessly and lent itself to what was previously read, or the next sentence. From page one, the female protagonist, Liz, creates concise images of what was, is, and what she hopes will be. I could feel the bustle of the daily office routine and recognize the different personalities of people working with Liz. From professional detachment to the purveyors of the office rumor mill, Larson creates them all in the briefest way. Usually, when I see this attempted, it falls short. Sometimes such an attempt feels abbreviated, and at others, greasy and extraneous. The adult action was formidable with no feeling of being forced or hurried. Lust built to tension, and the act to a “temporary” sating. At no point, did either protagonist get all they wanted from the other. I knew there would be more to come, and I was eager to see what it would be. A scene about phone sex near the end of the book, was so hot that, I want Liz’s number! Larson left me heated and eager as much as Liz left Jack feeling the same. The book seems to be, written for a mature male demographic; however, I see no reason women would not enjoy it just as much. Particularly, I can see women who work in a large office setting substituting Jack for the ranking stud muffin in their office. I’m glad this book is the first of a series and you can bet I’ll be buying the second book. I usually rate even the hottest short-shorts as four stars, but to give this book less than five would diminish an outstanding effort. I recommend this book to any adult (over the age of eighteen) searching for a great late night read or a hot, morning eye-opener. Satisfied, but eager for more!
