For His Pleasure was 100% filthy and I was absolutely here for all of it! The title speaks for itself so, y’all know what it is. However, I really wish we could’ve gotten a stronger storyline. The author has said this book wasn't meant to be plot heavy but, given the subject matter, I think that was a missed opportunity. I would’ve loved more background on Ivy and Declan than just the surface level we got. With that said, For His Pleasure was still a very good book that will have you clutchin’ your pearls and looking for a moist towelette.
I loved the role change, normally it’s the woman who’s inexperienced & a little insecure, but Miss Author said we’re switching this up. & this was everything I wanted & more!
This couple was so sexy & filthyyyyy.
The author dumped all the filth she could in these pages!
Ivy teach me your ways sis!!!! 🌶🥵💦 This was a two piece spicy read for sure!! Just 100+ pages of erotic nastiness and I was here for all of it! Now I will say that there was no real storyline and after reading this, I don’t think that was necessarily the authors intention! When you take into consideration that the story covered the timespan of a week or so minus the epilogue then there wasn’t really time to develop a storyline. I do think the story gave enough for you to piece together what Kimberly wanted readers to walk away from.
You have Declan who is a 28 year old virgin and after being in a relationship with Ivy for 6/9 months is finally ready to explore the sexual part of their relationship ( with a push from Ivy of course). The story to me was meant to show moment of them taking their relationship to new heights. Sis said she was creating The Ivy Experience and not one lie was told. Sis turned out Declan in a matter of days! Their bond grew stronger and the ending was the absolute cutest! I loved how neither Ivy nor Declan allowed anyone to disrespect their relationship. What was for them was for them and didn’t need to be explained or justified to outsiders.
What in the filth I just read. My goodness. It was non-stop. Eroticas aren't usually my forte. So whenever I do indulge, I prefer the ones that are attached to a story. This one really wasn't a story. Like there was no plot, really. It was põrn. I skipped a lot of it cause it was just sex. It got old pretty quickly for me. But we need to take a sec to talk about KB's imagination, cause my goodness 🤯 it was wild. I feel like I need to go repent or something. Now I need sappy mushy, blushing, hallmark channel like (for black people) romance to balance the filth out. KB is still my girl tho! 2.7⭐️
Thoughts: THIS BOOK WAS JUST NASTYYYYY IN THE BEST WAY POSSIBLE!!!!! Chile let me get me a lil nerd like fine ass Declan’s ass! MY GOD i dont know what to say but this book was everything i needed and more!!! I also like how Ivy wasnt with the shits when it came to her friends talking about her man! Chile this book was so damn good!
Well this was for HIS pleasure, but Sis was absolutely getting HERs as well. Sometimes you just need to read a book full of filth and this was that lol.
The storyline was really minimal, but I did like the fact that the aggressor was in fact the woman 🤭 When I say she turned this man all the way out, that is exactly what sis did.
SN: This is the second Black Declan I've read about and they are wild under that sensitivity.
I this was unexpected. But he had a wonderful gf who was willing to stick it out. I'm glad she didn't give up on him. But he treated her like the queen she was. They did a lot of exploring together and safe s3×ual play. I love that she stopped and let him know everything they were doing would be fun and comfortable and she would never emasculate him or do something without his permission. They had great communication and the spice was perfect. This was a beautiful relationship. I think I found a new author 🤤😉
IF YALL WANT SOME GOOD GOOD🌶 it’s right here this book had me screaming giggling and everything and I wasn’t even in the damn book😭 I love how the plot was mainly spice but you got a backstory about his pass and somewhat her pass. Then you the the kinda after story, but this was a good spicy and quick read. Kimberly always gonna do her thing♥️♥️ 🌶🌶🌶🌶/5 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️/5
I'm not sure how to start this review off so I'll start with the most important detail. IT IS FILTHY. Please don't walk into this book thinking it's a cute little read about a virgin losing his virginity because this ain't that but it's so much better.
It's not often we get a book with a male virgin learning the ropes through his sexually experienced girlfriend and boooooy did Kimberley Brown deliver. I love that she saw readers asking for a book on this topic and gave the masses what they wanted.
Declan and Ivy were so cute together. I love the way they learned each others bodies while deepening their love connection. The ending was so cute!
Declan & Ivy whewwwww! Just them two, draining each other & addicted to each other the entire book!!
Favorite Quote- “You figured out how to please me by paying attention to my face and my body. You don’t have to be a man that’s slept with a bunch of women to know how to be an unselfish lover.”
Now this was a different erotic read that had me in a hold. A must read…an experience. Once the ‘cherry was pop’ 😆 Declan got the Ivy experience. I loved that they both loved and accepted each other for who they are. Different strokes for different folks. Declan and Ivy complimented each other. This was sexual, sensual, intriguing, nasty 😉. Pure pleasure.
This was a pretty good and sexy book. I like that the main character, Ivy, was vocal about her needs-including her sexual needs. She loved herself some Declan, as he did as well. I was a little worried about how Declan would perform in the bedroom but baby, I was clutching my pearls! Whew, a fast learner, he was! Short and spicy read.
DNF @ 12% I just can’t even with this book☹️ I tried I REALLY tried but it’s too cringy and I’m so sick of the over usage of slang and modern celebrities and things in romances. It irks the hell out of me
The story started at a normal pace and then skyrocketed down the story with hairpin turns that shook me up. I did not get a chance to take a deep breathe before the couple was at it again. Now I need a cig.... Okay, this was too much for little old ladies. See what you think, but you will need an AED defibrillator during the reading. You've been warned.
I had high hopes for this as I was really looking forward to reading about a virgin MMC as usually it’s the other way around. So I will say that this book delivered on that. And also the MMC did seem nice and i enjoyed just how observant he’s been prior to popping his 🍒 with her.
Sadly that’s where my positives end with this book. I didn’t like the FmC. She just irritated me.
The dialogue was awful! It felt like I was eavesdropping on a bunch of 17 year old boys talking.
Now I love a good smut read but that basically all there was in here. I’m not against books that are all smut and no plot but I find the ones that are able to pull that off are where it’s like 1 or 2 🌶️ scenes and just going into great detail. Here I lost count how many 🌶️ scenes there were and if felt like they were doing a smut bingo card. Every possible cliche was thrown in. It takes a lot for me to want to DNF a novella and this is probably the closest one I’ve almost given into.
how are u progressive with the smut but regressive with normal misogyny?
the constant use of ‘females’ to refer to women, the constant ‘i’m not like yall that like hood n*ggas and that toxic stuff’ like u don’t need to put ppl down to express what u like.
it’s giving ‘i like white women because i hate black women’ … like okay??????????????????
i think it’s hard to read more urban romances because this is the bs i have to put up with just because i’m looking for representation.
This was such a sweet, WILD, unexpected story. Kimberly Brown is a new author to me and I love the way she told this story with care. We often read about new experiences from a woman’s perspective, this was the first I’ve read from a man and I enjoyed getting to see the vulnerability that went along with the ride. And honey a ride it was!
My Lawd if you want something spicy that is going to have you fanning… pick this up right now. Kim has done it again and I’m still trying to figure out was I ready 🥵🥵🥵
I love it! This was my first book about virgin man and confident woman working as influencer. I adore it! It’s fast and spicy, respectful couple.✨ Thank you for this book, I really enjoyed it!

Kimberly Brown doesn’t miss with her pen! Outside of the AMAZING smut content, I loved the plot of this story. It’s rare that we get a plot point where the male is sexually inexperienced so it was interesting to see that unfold throughout this book. I loved Ivy and Declan’s relationship; how soft and gentle he loved her and how patient she was with him. Their love and connection was very refreshing to read. I loved this book and have absolutely no complaints!
This was a great story. I loved the relationship between Declan and Ivy. They didn’t care what anyone said about their relationship. It worked for them and that was all that mattered. Ivy definitely turned Declan out and I was here for every bit of it. Very enjoyable book.
