my!
This was extremely erotic, Extremely. The whole premise of men genetically engineered for sex is a totally guilty pleasure, Totally ridiculous, yet i couldnt resist purchasing and reading it, I liked the universe this author created, and how these hot men became second class citizens who have to struggle to find true happiness in a corrupt system.
I like how they have their own unique, sexy brand of nobility,
This is the first in the series, and I feel like the author may have overplayed her hand by presenting her readers with Rees, the ultimate shareem.
He seems to be the sexiest of all the shareem, according to his backstory, Should she have saved his story for the last of the series I kind of don't want to read any of the others, since I don't see how any of the others could possibly top Rees.
None of the others have, shall we say, his range I liked how Rees fell hard for the heroine, which was touching, But I didn't like the heroine that much, She was not very interesting, Rees needed a more worthy partner, though I know her sweetness i, e. blandness was part of her whole appeal to him, I really wanted to like this book a lot more than I did, I had no connection with the characters, The beginning of the story lacked a setting so it took a while to figure out exactly what was going on and then in chapteryou got the background story.
As soon as the story was picking up it was over,
This was really astar story but I gave the extra star for the cover, yummy!!!!
"Rees" by Allyson James, Bookof the Tales of the Shareem series,
So this book is a scifi erotica romance, Not what I normally read but the author writes the Shifters Unbound series under the name of Jennifer Ashley and I really enjoy those books, so I decided to give this series a try.
. . you know for something different.
Interesting background concept, The males in this series are genetically engineered males called Shareem and they were designed to fulfill a woman's every sexual fantasy, Now, I don't usually do spoilers in my reviews but it's kind of difficult with this book because the story line is really very basic,
Rees is a Shareem but not an ordinary one, There arelevels to Shareem and Rees is not in any of those categories, When he meets Talan, a highborn female, he is instantly attracted to her and is determined to make her his, Talan has found a diary of a woman who fell in love with a Shareem, Now she wants to experience what a Shareem has to offer before she follows the way of celibacy and meditation, as is custom for females on Bor Narga.
She just didn't think she would end up having feeling for Rees,
Now, I won't get into explaining the details of how the world of Bor Narga works, but needless to say, this is an erotica novel, so there is a LOT of sex in this book.
BDSM, voyeurism, m/f, m/f/m menage, No m/m. A big issue throughout this book is trust, acceptance and control of oneself,
I actually liked both Rees and Talan, I found their characters quite interesting, And when you take out all the sexual stuff, their emotional states are really quite, well, emotional, I also enjoyed the other supporting characters as well, They gave this world a lot of depth and insight into being a Shareem and how the world of Bor Narga works,
I really enjoyed this book so I will continue to read this series, /stars
Just a little too much about sex, I'm no prude but when there is so little story, you lose me, WARNING! Do NOT attempt to read this book at work unless you work at home, work with your SO or maybe in a adult store of some kind.
Yowza. Also not a good idea to read some of it before going on a first date, Lessons learned the hardway. Loved it. Can't wait to read more of the series, I didn't read the short that came before it and didn't feel lost at all, This was my first book, by Allyson James, but it will not be my last, I loved the premise of this book a ladyTalen, is curious about the Shareem after reading another lady's diary, So she follows oneReesand the both feel a connection,
This book is highly erotic and it had the perfect measure of eroticism and romance, I don't think I have ever met a hero quite like Rees, but I am looking forward to learning more about Riosecondary character and Rees friend.
Since I tend to babbleas you can see above, I will end this by saying that if you like erotic romanceand who doesn't,lol, you should definitely read this.
You will not be disappointed in the least, Oooooookay. So yeah, there was a lot of sexytimes right after I posted my last update,
I knew this was sci fi erotica, but um, . . I didn't expect the DP, Not at all. From what I remember, the blurb didn't suggest anything like that,
Still scratching my head over it,
Wasn't really drawn in by the storyline, either, Props for the attempts at creating this alternaworld, though, Ok well this book was exactly what I was expecting it to be, A short hot loads of sex with a dash of story book that had me hot and hunting out my husband,
There isn't much I can tell you about it except that it is what it is,

Actually pretty good! Yea lots of sex, but I thought the characters and story were pretty interesting! I'll definitely continue this series! After about one quarter of the book I have to move it to my DNF shelf.
I expected a sizzling hot story with a good portion of sexytime and some adventure and excitement,
What I got was only sexytime and no story, NO STORY AT ALL.
I'm not against sex in books at all, just take a look at some of the books I like and you will see that quite clearly.
However, if I am to read porn, I would just buy one from Amazon, That is not my cup of tea though, I need some PNR in the mix! Some action, a story, some excitement, This book, for me, is just a whole lotta sex scenes and nothing else, Quick "review": I liked the story which wasn't only about sex, although there were many love scenes to please erotica/romantica readers and I really liked the characters Rees, Talan amp Rio.
I didn't like the ménage scenes not only because I'm not into sharing, but mainly because those scenes didn't fit the story, I mean, Rees was extremely jealous and possessive, to the point of warning Rio to stay away from Talan so how am I supposed to believe that he was more than OK with sharing her with his friend Sorry, it didn't make sense! As it was, I felt like the ménage scenes were included for titillating purposes only.
All in all, this was a very enjoyable read to me and I plan to read the next books in the series, Where can I find my own Shareem Oh, that's right, this was fantasy, Bummer. Lol! I loved how human Rees was, Yes, he was created, and yes, his creators had no idea how to control him, but he did an impressive job of making a life for himself after he escaped DNAmo.
Talan was so sweet, and like Lady Pet, I was glad when she started standing up for herself, Ultimately, she knew what she wanted and she went and grabbed it, Rio sounds like a pretty decent guy himself, though oddly, he seemed less human than Rees,
An enjoyable story, . . lots of good steamy sex, I'll probably continue with the series eventually, but I'm going to wait a bit, Well, what can I say about this book,
Not the first erotica on my bookshelves but it is the first one Ive read, the others still lie there unread, . . but maybe not for long,
It was easy to read, of course there were quite some erotic scenes but it wasnt all about the bed scenes, There was also the story between a man created to please women and a woman wanting to discover how its like to be pleased by a man.
And along the way they discover that theres more between them than just wanting to teach and learn about sex,
I cant quite put my finger on it but something was missing or off and I cant describe what it was exactly, Maybe it was a lack of intensity, maybe it was a lack of emotions, maybe it was a lack of witty humor, maybe it was a combination of all of the above.
I only got pulled into the story at the very end when Rees lost it and was afraid of hurting Talan and Rio was called in.
That was when I thought: “Yes! This is what I want to read, "
But still I cant say I didnt like the book, I was intrigued by these Shareem and their levels, I was intrigued by the friendship between Rees and Rio, so there is certainly more to be explored here and I most definitely wont dismiss Ms James or the erotica genre after just reading this one.
I cant say it was a keeper for me but it surely was a nice and fun read when your in the mood for something different.
In the year, women are supposed to not to want carnal pleasures, to study instead to reach fulfillment, Impregnation is done in sterile facilities to avoid human contact,
Lady Talan is curious, shes found a diary where a lady describes her falling for a Shareem, how he taught her love and sensual pleasure.
Scientists created Shareems as an experiment to give satisfaction,
They come in three different
levels, sensual pleasure, games or domination, Alana stumbles upon Rees, a Shareem, and convinces him to teach her what he knows, not knowing that hes a level all to himself,
Futuristic, smutty fluff and dominating Alpha males,
Woah! Hold the whips and chains!! This sounds cute and maybe a little sexy, but, when the hell did I add this to my TBR O, o
looks around suspiciously,
