THE BIKE SHOP - Kristin Lance

Sage runs his father's bike shop. Jay is torn because he's completely infatuated with his partner, Sage, but hates the small Colorado community he lives in. Lily is on vacation in Colorado and can't believe how hot the guys in the bike shop are. They happen to find Lily equally attractive.  Turn up the heat ... the three will get together in different combinations, alone, together, and with a few others.

I got this mostly based on the author's general reputation and book ratings, but I found this to be fairly boring.  I really didn't need to spend so much time on angst. I don't care how hot Jay was - he was annoying.

Sex scenes were pretty typical to this kind of erotica, but I just didn't get into it.

ENTWINED: JANE IN THE JUNGLE - Colette Gale

Victorian woman Jane Clemons is on a mission to find her lover, Jonathan, who disappeared three years prior. She, her father, and one of Jonathan's most trusted friends, set off to Madagascar where Jonathan was last known to be. Here, Jane becomes entranced with the lush beauty of the jungle. It's so different from the crowded city. But little does she know that a wild jungle man is equally entranced by her.

The 'friend' tries to force himself on Jane but she manages to rebuff his advances. How will the wild man respond? 

This 'Tarzan'-like erotic short was really enjoyable.  I liked that I could identify the setting from my Tarzan reading days. And while it wasn't billed as a Tarzan story, the connection was clear. And yet author Colette Gale didn't change things to fit this story. It was as if we were reading Tarzan but from Jane's point of view and uncensored.

There are ten books in the 'Jane' series and I'm definitely keen to read them all.
