The Emerald Room (Sexy Erotica Book 10)

Scarlett Knight

Fear of Dying , with its twin themes of ageing and mortality, gently satirises the fact that the sex lives of the middle-aged are now fair game for multinational corporations. What are they doing? You can only show them in side-by-side bathtubs. On the one hand, our vulture capitalism; on the other, our puritanism. I find it hysterical. Whether gay or straight, they think: But there are a million ways of making love.

You can be impotent and still have wonderful sex. Jong lives in an apartment high in a tower on the Upper East Side of Manhattan, a home that is so close to what I imagined for her, I might as well have stumbled on to a stage set for a biopic of her life.

I had an affair with a woman, well, it was just a little overnight fling, and it was silly. I almost forgot his alien tongue Waste of space on my e-reader and of time.

The dining room is mirrored, and in the kitchen there toils a maid. Jong herself is all dolled up, her photograph having just been taken.

She wears heels and an orangey dress, the colour of which matches her lip gloss; on one finger is an emerald the size of a Subbuteo pitch. But these are the kind of features that wear well, especially when animated by her kind of personality, which is — how to put this? Not for Jong the false modesty and winning self-deprecation of her British colleagues. Her cleverness, her attractiveness, her sheer brazen talent: Jong has been famous for so long now.

But an hour in, and something closer to what I imagine to be the real Jong emerges: Fear of Dying was supposed to be about an older Isadora Wing, the heroine of Fear of Flying , the novel with which Jong made her name — and how — in She had too much baggage. It was just overwhelming.

But if Wonderman sounds selfish and needy — this is how she sometimes reads — she has an excuse. Her beloved parents are dying, an unmitigatedly grim business that only increases her desperation not to give in to old age herself. Jong has always drawn closely on her own life in her novels: This one is no exception. Long ago, the paperback editor of Fear of Flying suggested to her that there had never been a bestseller about a woman over 40; she longed to remedy that.

As you get older, the gap [between you] gets tremendously bigger, not smaller. I was scared he would be depressed.

So this week, April and I read another book together. I love reading these with her because we see eye to eye on these types.

We can make fun of the dumb ones like this one and have a good time. I'll start off by saying that I can sum this book up in about two words.

In every sense of the word. But the best part is that the entire time we were reading this, April and I had a blast making fun of it. So I'll get to it We meet Meredith while she is staying at her grandmother's bed and breakfast. She's at her grandma's place because she found her ex-fiancee in bed with not one but TWO ladies. That must've been awkward While she's there, she's mourning her broken heart when her grandma tells her to get up off her ass and do something.

So she goes into town. I'm not even sure where this is even at but I have no clue what town would have a shop that is both a jewelry store and a fudge shop. While she is standing in the unbelievabley long line at the fudge shop, she peers over the counter at the jewelry store and see a gorgeous emerald pine tree pin. Feeling the cheese yet?

While she is looking at the necklace, a handsome man mentions that she would look lovely in it. So he tells the cashier to pull it out and he proceeds to put it on her. Then buys it for her. All the while explaining that in ancient Egyptian times, emeralds were considered to bring out your sexuality. Okay, so first of all I mean even if he is gorgeous, who does that?!

I'd be reaching for my mace right about now. So after he buys the necklace, he offers to share his fudge he just purchased. Of course she agrees.

That's the main story. I mean this had the ability to be a really cute love story but the reason why I could not take this seriously I highly doubt that the author meant to be serious , is because of the writing, wording, and the phrasing. I don't really know how to put it except for putting a few gems on here. His breath hissed as his eyes feasted on her weeping slit um so gross!! And Connor's big body looming over her, every muscle straining with his cataclysmic release cataclysmic?

I almost forgot his alien tongue His tongue swept against the roof of her mouth and licked the insides of her cheeks. Seriously, how does this happen?

I don't quite comprehend that. One of the worst things about this book is the author's use of the c-word. I am not a fan of the word. Especially if you're a woman. But I counted how many times she used the c-word. I mean, there are only 3 chapters in the book. Can you not think of any other word to describe it? One sex scene in particular will be forever burned into my brain. I'll just say this: I going to touch a little bit into the scenarios that had the thoughts of a rapist going through my brain Warning bells were ringing in my head.

Anyways, I'm really glad this was free because if I'd paid money for this I woud've wanted a full refund. But it was fun making fun of it with April. Because that's how we roll yo!

Needing some privacy, Meredith is staying with her grandmother at her bed and breakfast.

With her grandmother pushing her to get out of the house, she takes a walk into town to buy chocolate fudge. She spots a beautiful emerald necklace and bumps into an equally beautiful man, named Connor. Everything about this man screams sensuality and he seduces her into wearing the necklace. He pays for the necklace and asks her to join him for fudge. Their flirting becomes intense and they drive to a secluded area on the beach while Connor tells Meredith about the magical powers of the Emerald necklace.

They have hot and crazy sex on the beach, in the water, and again on the beach. Just then, Meredith is awoken by her grandmother. I would have given this book a 2 out of 5, but the sex scenes were absolutely incredible and push it up another star. This book was not something I enjoyed reading. There was no real story and the main character irritated me from the start by just going along with a stranger she met seconds ago. Even steps into his car. Just because he's handsome. Sorry, but in this day and age that's not something women do anymore. Too many bad things happened to those who did that women now know better than to trust a stranger.

Besides, didn't you tell seconds ago that you just swore of men because recently you found your fia This book was not something I enjoyed reading. Besides, didn't you tell seconds ago that you just swore of men because recently you found your fiance in bed with two other women? I'm sorry, but I don't think that woman step into cars with strangers when they just experienced something like that. Oh and that was the whole story by the way. The rest is one long, boring sex scene. Now don't get me wrong, I don't mind reading a lot of sex scenes.

As long as it's written well. Not something like this. It totally lacked feelings and some of the things they did just felt wrong to me.

Then there's also the ending. Which I didn't get at all. Was this really necessary? Did the book really have to end with this? It only served to make me very confused and unsure of what I just read. Thank god this book was free and only 48 pages long. Aug 28, Caro rated it it was ok Shelves: This was an ok freebie. I wasn't really that impressed. The basic story line was good and the characters were ok. There wasn't much depth or emotions to this story, and that dampened the appeal to me. I couldn't really get into this one and didn't really feel a connection between them or to the book at all.

It also had a crude tint to it throughout instead of a sensual or romantic feel. Not really my style. There were quite a few mistakes too that had me having to read a part over and that didn' This was an ok freebie. There were quite a few mistakes too that had me having to read a part over and that didn't help any either. I wouldn't say I hate this, but I gave it two stars for the good basic outline. It could have been better, by a long shot, but it wasn't completely terrible. Pretty much a 'you get what you pay for' cliche. Nov 11, wade rated it liked it. Let me first say that I have not read the first two books in the series and I read this as an arc from the publishing company which I appreciated.

I would say that I don't think this is a stand alone book. Media in category "Paintings of couples having sex" The following 49 files are in this category, out of 49 total.
