FIRST SENTENCE: [From the first story] They say you only get a few seconds to make a good first impression.

SUMMARY: [From barnesandnoble.com] Agent Provocateur by Liz Maverick: A deadly agent is assigned to prepare an exotic beauty to be the ultimate seductress and perfect spy - lessons that will require long hours of personal instruction to perfect her ability to pleasure a man and, ultimately, conquer him.

Unrequited by Kimberly Dean: After years of secret longing for his brother's wife, Tyler rejoices when she is set free and ripe for new love - though it may take a prolonged seduction to convince wary Trista to open herself up to pleasure once more.

Victim of Deception by Lynn LaFleur: When a woman moves into an old house, she is suddenly tantalized by erotic dreams that cause her to shed her every inhibition leaving her vulnerable to the very real, very irresistible ministrations of the man who'd once broken her heart.

REASON FOR READING: It was on my shelf, taking up space.

THOUGHTS: Maybe this will be the book that finally reminds me that I don't really like romance anthologies and I really have to be in the mood for erotica to enjoy it. I like my books to have depth and development. There was nothing endearing about the stories in this volume for me. Then again, that might be because I really do hate anthologies. I wish I would learn that before I waste my time. So, in all fairness, my dislike of this book was more of the "It's not you, it's me" variety.

MISCELLANEOUS: I don't want my bed to talk. That would scare the dickens out of me.

RATING: 1/10 [Don't waste your time]
