He Said with guest reviewer Loush from The O'Raven Chronicles.........

 

 

It is a collection of 5 short stories; each short is a sexual fantasy set in a strange, terrific venue.

 

 

The first important thing I really have to say about this story is that the characters are compelling and the descriptives are truly wonderful. I could see it all played out like a movie in my head a times, and at other times it was like a series of paintings that were painted in sequences to reveal a story in images. A few parts were disturbing or violent which made me like them all the more. It is hard work to disturb a mind like mine.

 

The references to blood in the first section really resonate with me personally because I have a vampire fantasy fetish and have since I was a young boy. Who was the king, and who was his warrior who ruled him so? What were they? Their total need for each other had me excited before I even got into the rest of the story.

 

The part with the sovereign and his “unwilling” artist lover in the elevator played into my personal darker sexual fantasies and that made for a nice literary change that I don’t normally see most people having the guts to right in books as of late.

 

This book was strange, vague, erotic, beautiful, and wonderful and I came out with far more questions than I had going in... which is always surprising. One of the best aspects which I saw mentioned on several other reviews of this work was how the author related the feelings and emotions of the character couples for each other; how she described their absolute internal needs for each other. This is something the author excels at! It is my fervent wish that she take these strange shorts and put them all in a full length series, so that I can get to know the world she created and also these wonderful characters.

 

Loush rates this short story as 4/7 which I will translate to 3/5 stars since his rating system is quirky!

She Said, Tam's review of Sovereign Pleasures..............

 

 

Let me start by saying if you aren't a fan of Male on Male stories, this short isn't for you. There are some extremely graphic, steamy and sensual aspects to this writing. I would almost describe this as a BDSM M/M short as it skirts that genre in 3 of the 5 shorts.

 

 

Only 28 pages, this is a series of short stories (couple pages each) introducing us to several couples that I hope J will pick up and write full length stories for each. My personal favorite was Sinful Love with Deril and Ash, I must have a full length novel giving me more background for this couple.

 

 

I liked the way J expressed the feelings of the various characters throughout; what they saw in their partner, their feelings toward said partner and what was happening during the scene in that particular characters mind. There is a carnal pleasure and domination aspect in most of these shorts as well as a bit of paranormal.

 

 

I give this one 3.5/5.. but that's just my two cents!
