Maya Tayler Finds The G-Spot With “Push & Pull”

“Push & Pull” by Maya Tayler: An erotic slippery slope of what fidelity truly means.

Maya Tayler’s offering to the world of erotic fiction, “Push & Pull,” blows the load of what readers expect in the genre. That’s not to say it’s bad. Hardly. The tale of her protagonist Claire Reynolds is in complete control of her own pleasure even when she thinks she isn’t. Hired to test the fidelity of men, you can imagine how many ways this can go wrong in all the delicious ways.

Claire gets in over her head with our hero Liam, who has his own kit-n-caboodle of secrets. Liam is not only hot, but he comes off hot-n-heavy, rough-n-ready, and takes what he wants when he wants it. Still, it’s not Liam with all of the control. Claire absolutely is.

It’s refreshing to find an erotic story that is more about the woman’s pleasure and not about the man giving her what she thinks she wants. Claire knows exactly what she wants, and she knows how to get it and she doesn’t apologize for it. At long last, an erotic story that doesn’t set Women’s Lib back a century or so!

Tayler has confessed while she’s longtime writer, she’s new to writing erotica and it shows in little ways. For starters, some of the word choices are geared far more to getting a reaction out of male readers rather than female readers. Though your mileage may vary on that point. It’s been shown word choices geared at men are more direct and vulgar, word choices for women are a little more, how shall we say, softer?

If you’re not prepared for it, the sex of “Push & Pull” is front loaded into the story and may turn some readers off as a “Porn without Plot” tale. If you stick with it, and get through it, you will learn there is indeed a tangled plot, and you worry for the well-being of Claire and Liam. And the cliffhanger ending will leave you craving to know what happens next in this series of short stories.

My only overall complaints about the story are two points: As a short story it doesn’t stand on its own. It’s not a self-contained unit but instead a chapter in a longer story. Which I believe is Tayler’s intent, but if you’re looking for a complete short, you’re out of luck, she hooks you in with needing to know what happens next. I have to admire the shrewd business tactic. Tayler knows her audience, and she knows how to keep them paying for it.

The second point, and this is a small thing, the sex in Liam’s apartment at one point has the most impossible sex position I have ever seen. I had to diagram it with stick figures to figure it out and it still didn’t make sense. I know the actions portrayed are possible, but not the way the people are placed in the scene. Tiny thing. Tiny. Don’t think about it too much because, hey, hot sex!

“Push & Pull” by Maya Tayler is available for Kindle on Amazon.com for 99 cents.
