In BEDTIME STORIES, Jean Johnson takes a collection of fairy
tales and makes them her own. Told in a whole
different way, they are definitely stories for grown up ears
only. I think most of us grew up on these tales and will
recognize them.
The eight stories include reimaginings of Snow
White, Sleeping Beauty, The Frog
Prince, Beauty and the Beast, and Puss in
Boots, just to name a few. Each story is a good read,
making it hard to choose just one as a favorite. Instead, I
would like to mention a few to show you just how
enjoyable this book can be.
In The Frog Prince, I enjoyed seeing things from the frogs
point of view and watching him learn his lesson, and even
maybe fall in love.
In Puss in Boots, we meet a woman trapped in the body of a
cat by a fellow mage; an interesting take on the
childhood character. I enjoyed Siona and the smarts she
displayed while working through her predicament.
Beauty and the Beast tells Viktor and Raisa's story.
Proving that, no matter what, love conquers all.
In Snow White and The Seven Dwarfs, the readers are treated
to a connection to the Sons of Destiny series.
These, and many other, stories in this book make for a great
read.
BEDTIME STORIES: A COLLECTION OF EROTIC FAIRY TALES is a
wonderful diversion from the sweet childhood stories of our
youths. Being able to read one or two short stories at time
makes it a nice bedtime read, just as the title proclaims.
This was a nice introduction to this author's writing style.
Hopefully you will enjoy these stories as much as I did.
All-new! Fairy tales retold with an erotic edge, by the
national bestselling author of the Sons of Destiny series.
Jean Johnson sneaks between the covers of such
classic fairy tales as Beauty and the Beast, Puss n'
Boots, and Sleeping Beauty, and refashions them
into bedtime stories for adults only. With clever gender
twists, hot fetishistic turns, other-worldly desires, and
explorations into forbidden territories, Bedtime
Stories reveals a veritable garden of sensual delights
that gives new meaning to the term "happy ending."
