Tracy’s review of Fairy Tale Lust: Erotic Fantasies for Women
Award-winning novelist and top erotica writer Kristina Wright goes over the river and through the woods to find the sexiest fairy tales ever written. Playfully seductive, supernaturally sensual, and darkly erotic, Fairy Tale Lust showcases clever twists to classic tales and introduces new stories inspired by the ever-popular genre. Here, a walk in the forest is likely to lead to an erotic encounter with a mysterious stranger and the silver light of a full moon might illuminate an orgy of sensual delights! Highly imaginative and downright stimulating, these stories take fairy tale erotica to the next level. Top erotica contributors deliver sizzling work, including Janine Ashbless, Rachel Kramer Bussel, Delilah Devlin, Shanna Germaine, and Saskia Walker.
Fairy Tale Lust takes the fairy tales we’ve heard for years and puts a big ole erotic twist into them. While not a large book it holds 18 short erotic stories from a multitude of authors. The stories range in subject matter but most are well done. There’s really something for everyone in the book ranging from a woman trying to find her perfect mate, to adulterous men, to a little woman on woman action.
A couple of my favorites:
Ducking by Craig Sorenson – a story about a woman who was constantly ducking out of the way so that people wouldn’t notice her. She never considered herself beautiful but was shown by a stranger that she could make the most of what she had and men would find that attractive. Cute and funny.
Gildi and the Unwieldy, Ineffectual Committee of Bears by Jeremy Edwards – This was about a woman in a rock band who was playing for a college. Her room wasn’t ready on campus and all she wanted to do was find a room, dream about college dudes and masturbate. A wonderful take on the Goldilocks story and quite sexy to boot.
There were others that I enjoyed as well and a few that I found a little too dark for my liking. I think what I discovered about myself while reading this book is that while I found all of the stories erotic I decided that I like my fairy tales on the lighter side. Add some humor and I’m good to go. The darker stories I just didn’t find as enjoyable. But I’m one woman and what I like some others may not, and vice versa.
I would definitely recommend this book if you’re looking for short, erotic reads.
Rating: 3.5 out of 5
