This was a very challenging book for me. I’ve given it a grudging but well earned 5 Stars.
The wife and husband have a great relationship but the intimacy fire has fizzled. Having heard the stories from her friends, Tanya broaches the subject of a fling with the student she tutors. Brian’s all in. The scenes are very intense, particularly the final scene which Brian watches.
What bothers me is how Tanya treats Brian. At one point she asks: “Would he be rougher than you?” She moved faster, ignoring the ache. “Would he slam into me? Pin me down and take me like a real man?”
At the same time, what she feels about Brian is: “She owned him completely. … “. He needs to “warm her up” gently, she’s told him to hold off, she’s ruined his orgasms and she’s taunted him.
Frankly, she ticked [expletive deleted] me off! Brian certainly deserves a fling of his own at the least.
This book ends after this 3rd/4th set of trysts (we only hear about Arnelle’s). What we don’t know is what happens from here: for the women, the men and the lovers. I doubt these genies go back in their bottles easily. I’m eager to read how this works out for all of them. I’d be VERY disappointed if we’re at the end of these 3 women’s stories.
But based upon the ending, it looks like more are coming.
Getting back to this one, it’s sexy with a story that is believable. It’s not over the top, but you can imagine it happening to your next door neighbor.
The wife is tutoring a college athlete in English literature. She’s turned on by him and senses that he is as well. She decides to use the budding sexuality between the two of them as incentive for him to do his work.
Of course the couple’s own sex life is not good and as she talks to her husband about the feelings she is having, he gives her the proverbial green light in a round about way.
What I liked about the story was that the players had to take small steps to do it, rather than everyone immediately jumping in with two feet.
The husband is not a good talker and the wife has to surmise his feelings.
She, herself, is somewhat scared about proceeding sexually with the student. In fact she actually runs away when the first mention of sex is obliquely discussed with her student.
All in all the sexuality of the story is believable and makes for a very enjoyable read.
Let’s hope that further books in the series follow this format.
This is the third installment of Mr Lenov’s latest book. All three of the books involve members of a breakfast club of married women in their upper forties to mid fifties.
The three women primarily covered all voluntarily become involved in affairs. All three have told their husbands about their desire and the husbands reactions are very interesting.
The conflict between the spouses is a major part of the stories. That, and what happens in their sex lives. All three, had sex lives that would be best described as ‘vanilla’ and ‘boreing’.
The arc of those three relationships, and the heat,.. both at home, and with the new ‘bulls’, is ‘off the chain’ HOT.
