Erotic

Friends recently reunited from college, Lilli and Caroline, both share a past of painful memories which prevent them from ever letting go and enjoying the life they were meant to have. Leading two very different lives, Caroline runs Exotica; a resort for sexual fantasies, where a woman can receive pleasure that is out of this world. When her best friend confides her pain, Caroline knows that this is just the thing that will heal Lilli.

Lilli DeForrest's deceptive ex-fiancé' has left her with scars that may never allow her to trust again. Arriving at Exotica, she is amazed at the lush Kama Sutra suite, but even more so with her new companion Rajan. Realizing that Rajan is paid to seduce her, how can she ever trust that what he is actually saying and feeling is real? Can seven days of pure heaven lead to a life time of happiness? Is it enough to heal her past wounds that she has been harboring so tightly?

Caroline Winter is known as the Ice Queen by her staff, and rightfully so. She must take control of every situation. It is what makes her good at her job, but less than excellent in controlling her own life's happiness. She has created fantasies for numerous women, but can or will she allow herself to be vulnerable enough to succumb to those same urges? The new Arabian Night suite at Exotica has yet to open to the public. This may be the perfect opportunity for her to have a little private showing with the new employee. Kian, the new companion for that suite, takes immediate control the minute he walks into the room, but there is something about him that is mysterious. Caroline can tell he comes from money and distinction, so why is he here? True, Kian has a secret, but for the time he is in control Caroline will just have to let it go. That is until it blows up in her face. Will she be able to ever recover from this devastation? How could she have been so foolish to have given this man control?

What are the chances that these two very different women can find sexual and lifelong healing in the same fantasy desert? Are they the same chances that bring actual love along with desire? Exotica truly is a place where fantasy can bud into a beautiful flower.

Eden Bradley's EXOTICA is an intelligently creative novel of pure erotica. Attention to detail makes the fantasies ignite off of the page. The characters are electric and the passion fierce. Any woman's desire is quenched within this desert resort. It makes the reader want to find a place like Exotica to escape. What a great read.

SUMMARY

Welcome to Exotica…
a lush, sensual retreat where women can experience their most taboo fantasies.
Step inside—and leave your inhibitions at the door….


When her old friend Caroline invites her to Exotica for a week of pampering and pleasure, Lilli DeForrest has no idea what to expect. But when Rajan steps into her suite, the attraction is intense, immediate, overwhelming. He is her ideal lover—by turns tender, commanding, erotic. But, as Lilli is about to discover, Rajan’s masterful touch is just the beginning…

As manager of the luxurious retreat, Caroline Winter creates thrilling escapist fantasies for other women. Now she’s about to live out a fantasy of her own: dark, exotic Kian will challenge her to accept the exquisite pleasures he offers. But what Caroline doesn’t expect is the power of Kian’s sensuality…surrendering to him means abandoning herself completely—and giving up all control.

For Lilli, it’s the chance to test the limits of her sexuality. For Caroline, it’s trusting Kian with her most hidden desires even as she’s uncovering his own guarded secret. And for both women, it’s a journey into the hidden depths of fantasy—as they discover just how far they’ll go in search of seduction, surrender, and pleasure beyond imagining.…
