Totally boring and not erotic in any way whatsoever. Narrator sounds as bored as I was. Impossible to finish.

Rubbish

Would you recommend this book to a friend? Why or why not?

It's ok for a little titilation but no more than that. I haven't really listen to this genre before but it was slightly weird at times even for someone who considers themselves open minded.

Not that erotic
