It should be present with purpose. You are right. Purposeless sex is not exciting.Brandi Noelle wrote:Far too many sex scenes that did nothing to further the plot, other than make the heroine look trashy. It started to read a bit like a porn film...girl relaxing at home, pizza guy arrives, they have sex. That was how purposeless some of the scenes felt.
Did you feel like it is a story of a sex-hungry woman

I hope it helps!BoyLazy wrote:Great I'll try to read some books of Belle..Christina Rose wrote:You may want to look into Belle Ami's books. They have been reviewed through this site. I am not familiar with the books myself, but if I remember correctly from the reviews I read, she did a better job with the erotic scenes.BoyLazy wrote:Is there any good book with such scenes which are likeable? I need few references for a story that I am writing..

The only scene I feel has any relevance is the first erotic scene with Marty. Don't get me wrong, it could have been left out, but it wasn't as out of place as the numerous other erotic scenes.Miriam Molina wrote:I don't think those explicit scenes were needed at all. I was also fearful that each new character introduced was a potential "playmate." The sex became more frequent than even the meals.

They are definitely in excess, while not driving the plot forward. I would recommend against reading this book if senseless erotic scenes bother you. It’s hard to find enjoyment in the remainder of the novel, since it is so often interrupted with these scenes.esthernn wrote:sounds like scenes of sex are too much to handle, won't go for a copy right now.

Vickie, that is really important to put the clear voice to the world and not controlling normal stories.

Ha ha.. good point about her friends ?Emie Cuevas wrote:I thought that the story was just sex. I also thought it very unlikely that everyone within her social circle was swingers, but didn't know that about one another.

Author needed to focus more on sci-fi..CaitlynLynch wrote:I think the author has gone overboard. He would have done better to focus more on the plot and less on the protagonist's sex life. This isn't an erotica novel.
