On a hot summer night, Cassie manages to find inspiration from the least likely places. Not only Megan and Trevor, but their neighbors Gail and Dean demonstrate that everything isn’t as it seems, that love takes many guises. Even Craig is full of surprises on their night out, showing Cassie how hot a summer night can be. You’ll race through this, but the images linger; always the sign of a good read!

The characters are very real, their lives drawn in clear detail so that you feel for them and their struggles. Unlike a lot of shorter erotic stories this one really worked for me, and the sex scenes were very hot and intense. Brava to Jenna Allen for a story well told.

I loved this funny tale. Cassie tries everything she can think of in order to spice up their sex life and save her marriage. The characters are wonderfully portrayed and the lives believable between these pages. This is a great read from Ms. Allen. I look forward to more from her in the future.

A great read! I liked how Cassie realized that the lack of a sex life meant that her marriage needed help, and searched for a solution. Ms. Allen is an author I'll be sure to read again.

Erotic Romance Reviews for Women
Jenna Allen does a great job portraying three young wives and
their struggles and accomplishments in keeping there marriages interesting and their husbands excited. The plot is a good one and progresses with each encounter the wives have with their husbands. The sex scenes were vivid and stimulating. They added to the heat of one sweltering night in a neighborhood much like any neighborhood, and make you wonder what your neighbors are doing when their lights go out.

I enjoy this story, especially in how the author compares the
hot-and-beautiful couple of Megan and Trevor having sex to the out-of-shape couple of Dean and Gail getting it on only to prove that hot sex isn't exclusive to Kens and Barbies of the world. The sex is frank, coarse, explicit, and erotic, with an underlying strong romantic undercurrent in the explicit scenes especially between Megan and Trevor. A truly an inspiring read as it gives me an insight as to how an author can actually combine elements of erotica and romance and come out with a fun and sexy read. I really want more. My toes aren't curled enough. Why can't this
story be longer? Dang.

This is a good and hot read! I wish it was a bit longer, as I was so curious to find out more about the couple. Jenna Allen pleased me with how well her characters came to life on these pages.

Jenna Allen has brilliantly depicted the troubled marriage with its lack of communication, desperate loneliness and heart wrenching hurt. Her characters have depth and, even though this story is short, grew right before my eyes. The resolution to their troubles is neither quick nor easy and Ms. Allen made me cheer for both of them as they ended the story “on again”. I found this a refreshing read–hot and sexy, but gut wrenching as well. I recommend this story for anyone who knows what it’s like to watch a relationship fall apart and hope for the miracles that frequently happen to bring healing. I loved this story." -- Jennifer Leeland, author of Naughty Notions

The chemistry between the couple is sultry, the situation is poignant and romantically depicted as well. -- Fallen Angel
Reviews, 4 Angels

Jenna Allen pens a great plot, an interesting couple and learning to get past the heartache. By taking a deepening hurt and no communication, she shows how a relationship often sees past the hurt in this stirring read. -- Coffee Time Romance, 4 Cups

Ms. Allen did quite a nice job of describing her characters and I found the plot to be interesting. -- The Romance Studio, 3 Hearts

A quick read, filled with emotion and passion. Perfect for a lunch hour read -- Dirty Girl Reviews, 4 Stars

Sensual Reads Reviews:

"Ms. Allen, in my opinion, has wrote the absolute perfect short story. Passion, desire, and heart warming love all rolled into one. I truly enjoyed the read, and loved the outcome between the characters. I highly recommend this book to lovers of erotic romance with a very happy ending."

"This was the sweetest fantasy/roleplaying story I have read in a long time."

Fallen Angel's Reviews ::

"If you're looking for an erotic piece of short fiction and indulge in many fantasies yourself, then this could be the tale you are looking for."
