This book sounds amazing! I like an erotic read but as you said, this one offers so much more than just an erotic read. I will definitely be checking this one out. Thank you for your enthusiastic review! It's always great reading about someone's love for a book.

I don't chase after erotica, yet I don't repel them. So I would like to give this a try. Congratulations on being BOTD

Thanks for the review, but I am SO not interested in this tale of three women who engage in "daring sexual experiences, challenges, and fantasies." Not my cup of tea.

In the sample pages that I read, it sounds like these two women had enough with being tied down in serious relationships. From your review, it sounds like they go on to have sexual experiences in place of being tied to one person. I have no interest in that type of story at all. I know Amsterdam is known for its sex trade and such, and the lure of jumping from one man to the next might sound great to those who have been disappointed, but it feels empty to me. Glad you enjoyed this one, but I’m skipping it.

Wow,
I definitely love books like this.
Well developed characters and a real storyline with romantic encounters mixed in. It's also great that the female characters are portrayed as strong and independent who know what they want and go for it, taking charge of their own lives.
Great review.
