I did not expect to like this novella as much as I did. After reading the synopsis, I really wanted to read it, especially since I have a thing for romance/erotica featuring chefs. Meat did not disappoint. Overall, it has likable characters, steamy scenes, and an alpha male who isn’t a sexist bore! The only downside, is that the story is highly predictable. I am not sure if the twists were supposed to be twist because I picked up on them right off the bat (and I am a bit slow at these things.) Not that it detracted from enjoying the story. What I appreciated most, however, was how realistic the erotic scenes are. I won’t give anything anyway, just that you should read it.

If you are looking for a hot, sensual and thrilling (on more than one level) quick read, then I suggest you try out Felicity Heaton's first book in the Vampire Erotic Theatre series. This book lets you dip your toe in the vampire's world. It gives you a run down on the difference between the two sets of vampires and gives you a quick insight into what their world is like. There are characters in here that make the story very intriguing - and not just Javier and Lilah!

I love the groundwork that the author has put down, these details are what makes a book special and very, very readable.

If you want something bland and boring, then pass by this Novella. This is hot and spicy - loved it!

Movie Favorite

"A film that is the cinematic antipode of The Battle of Algiers. Photographed by the great Jack Cardiff, designed by Alfred Junge (both of whom received Oscars for their work here), this film was considered by Michael Powell to be the “most erotic” of all his films. That it takes place within a community of nuns gives his claim a deliciously profane edginess. It is the film that made me first realize how much cinematography can and should contribute to the emotional, dramatic thrust of a movie. It was also a great influence on my own film, the never released Mariette in Ecstasy, a bittersweet experience that made me realize how much more freedom I would always have as a cinematographer than as just another struggling director trapped in the Hollywood system."

*I won a copy of this book through a giveaway on a blog*

3.5 stars.

I'm not a big fan of menage books, there's generally too much going on for me and in this there were a lot of erotic scenes involving more than just out two main characters and it didn't do anything for me.

I don't mind a bit of kink but some bits of this book were a little too much for my tastes.

That being said, if those scenes were removed and it was just Sam and Mitch I would have given it a higher rating as what they shared from early on was something special.I loved the beginning and the end but the in between went a little awry for me.

Nevertheless I liked it.
