  <default_description>How realistic is it to believe that one lover can satisfy a woman&#8217;s every fantasy? &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Nia Simone Bijou is a woman who has it all - and is driven by the desire for more. Born in Trinidad, reared in Los Angeles, living in Atlanta, Nia is a writer, a thinker, and a woman in conflict. She&#8217;s dealing with two sides of her Gemini self, feeling as if there are two women living inside her, both struggling for domination. One side of Nia is a logical yet heartbroken person who has never let go of an old pain, while the other side is a sensual woman who will not let her rest, desiring intimacy and sexual freedom, demanding Pleasure.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;In the sweltering heat of July, loneliness, desire, and a struggle with both the sensual self and fantasy inspire Nia to become sexually adventurous, meeting lovers who arouse her in diverse ways, lovers who give her unimaginable experiences, generous lovers who desire to please her as much as she desires to satisfy them. Fantasies spiral out of control, and with her life on the line, Nia discovers that Pleasure does not come without pain. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Filled with passion, populated with characters that are sexually uninhibited, Pleasure is an unforgettable journey into a free-spirited world.</default_description>

    <body><![CDATA[This book was off the hook.  I was a Dickey virgin before I read this so I was blown away by the fantastic erotic journey he sent me on.  After reading some others I understand he is a great writer of mystery and action, but can also make your insides tingle on a sexual journey.  Love it!]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[OMG!  EJD was acting a fool in a whole new way in this book.  It was so sinful that I actually had to take the paper cover off the hardback book so other people wouldn't know what I was reading out in public.  lol.
