This collection of stories was not only intriguing, and entertaining, but really refreshing to delve into erotic fiction without feeling like it had to be a secret! Each story is tastefully written and the artwork is a perfect addition.
Each woman in the series is a successful, confident and comfortable in her own skin and with her sexuality. The "Encounters" with their partners range from a first meeting, a weekend getaway, an encounter with a famous Brit, the cougar and the young cowboy, even a best friends ex-lover.
L A Powell enlists the help of her good friend Danielle Fraser, a very talented artist, to illustrate each story with a relevant sketch of nudes.
As a first publication for L A Powell, I enjoyed ENCOUNTERS. The collections of stories was just perfect. I can't wait to see what else she has published.
My husband even read some of it.....and enjoyed it!
"You walk toward me, closing the space between us, and you
kiss me again, your tongue so deep and so welcome in my
mouth, creating a cascade of sensations that vibrate down my
spine. We forsake all sense of reason, letting our hands and
mouths at long last have their way as we discover each
otherβs body. You inhale sharply when you recognize my
absolute nakedness beneath the peach silk of my sundress."
- From the short story 'Taboo'
"He pulls away and lifts her up, carries her to the vast
kitchen area and sits her on the newly installed marble
island. She unbuttons his white polo shirt and uses her
hands and mouth to feel and taste her way across his chest,
tracing his collarbone with her lips and tongue. As she
lifts her head to kiss him, she realizes they are of equal
height now that she is perched on the marble island. He
touches her chin and kisses her, slowly, deeply. She
impulsively brings her legs up to wrap around him, but he
places his hands on each of her thighs, preventing it and at
the same time pulling her closer to the marble's edge." -
From the short story 'Opposites Attract'
