3.0
A collection of stories by redacted authors. The hype unfortunately did not live up the expectation of an erotic collection of short stories. The stories were really tame in comparison to some of our current romance authors.
I can see what Russell Smith was trying to do with the collection and with a little more finesse and authors who really want to let loose from dipping their toes in PG-13 style of writing, and letting their inhibition let go, it would be great. There is a market for this style of book with people who don't read dark romance and morally grey books on a daily basis.
Secret Sex (limited) explores different sexual appetites from bondage to sadism without causing the novice reader to blush to much.
Favourite story of the collection is Portrait of a Lady and the most erotic story was Mirror Mirror.
Will keep an eye for other collaborations from Russell Smith.
