A collection such as this gives you a good introduction into the variety of sex scenes that are popular with romance readers today. If you've been thinking of trying a different genre of romance this collection (along with the previous Skip to the Good Parts series of books)gives you a little taste of everything - thought mostly m/f scenes, there are also ménage and m/m featured as well. My favourite scenes in this collection turned out to be those written by Annika Martin from The Hostage Bargain (a ménage a quatre); Viola Rivard's story Honesty (shifter m/f/m); Amber Lin and Shari Slade's One Kiss With A Rock Star (m/f); Eileen Griffin and Nikka Michaels' In The Raw (m/m)and Sarina Bowen's The Understatement of the Year (also m/m). There were a few scenes that were not to my personal taste but that's the beauty of a compilation like this - you get a feel for what kind of scenes/ writing style/and author you like and know that when you purchase the full story you'll be happy with the content. 4 stars for another great entry in this series.

Note: a copy of this collection was provided by one of the authors for review.

I loved this Book! I received this book in exchange for a honest review and it was great! If you love the hot, steamy scenes in a story that's what this book is full of! Like the title says, it skips to the good part! There are many different parts from many different authors full length stories. I discovered many new to me authors and books I want to read now and also authors I already love. Every story in the book was great! You definitely want to read this!

Ok, let's admit it. We all love to skip to the "good parts" in any type of romance. This book is HOT!! Each and every story in this bundle was so much fun to read. My favorite was the excerpt from "Flight" by V.M. Black. It is from her series "The Alpha's Captive, #3". I have read each and every book written by this author, and this scene is one of my favorites! Sexy and quite entertaining, PICK UP THIS BOOK!!!! Now I just need to pick up the first 3 volumes! Wink! Wink!

What could be better than a group of talented authors sharing their steamiest scenes? I couldn't think of anything else either!! Love this collection and by far my favorite is Jami Denise, and Damned Sinner, Janye Series #4. The electricity between Vince and Kelsey is intense and so well written. Can't wait to read the whole series.

I was given this book to read and review. I rated this book four stars and four flames. I am a fan of the authors that I had read before this collection and now I'm a fan of all the authors. This is a collection that gives you a taste of the authors writing. The characters are are handsome, sexy, captivating, engaging, well developed, intriguing and exquisite! Be still my heart! They come to life and jump off the page right into your imagination. I loved it! There are stories that will dazzled the readers with amazing talent and exceptional skills. Some will teased, tantalized, and entertained us. Some are on fire, powerful, compelling, deliciously dark paranormal tale of love, murder, suspense, and intrigue! I didn't think it was possible but this set of books is intense and exciting! Some of the books delves deeper into danger, death, suspense, dark plot twists Oh my goodness! I was completely enthralled from beginning to end! The stories are imaginative, exciting, action packed, riveting, thrilling, compelling, gripping, suspenseful, mysterious, romantic, sensual, steamy and let's not forget scorching HOT! The dialog is intelligent, eloquent, beautiful and very well written. The books was quite a fascinating and riveting revelation as metamorphosis becomes complete. Sexy check! A fascinating menagerie of human and supernatural characters-check! Danger, abduction, murder, suspense and intrigue-check! Exquisite romance, undying love, a fealty for all time and beautiful sex-you got it! I was on the edge of my seat from story to story. This is hands down some of the best introduction to twenty serial that I've ever read!! Absolutely unbelievable ! Fabulous introduction of short stories!! Strong entertainment and an awesome read!

I was frustrated with this bundle. First and foremost many of the books in the bundle are a part of a series. Some of which I have read granted but it's a pain when you go to read a story and you feel like you are missing something because you are in the middle of a series that you haven't read. Second, thing was that I had read many of the stories in the bundle. Those stories are really good and worth rereading but I was hoping for new content. The books that are stand alones or the beginning of series are really good as well. I was not disappointed in the stories themselves because those are all well written and developed and are easy to get into. I just think they should have put in the summary available that many of the books are part of a series or at least list the stories in the bundle so people are aware of the fact they are a part of a series.

This book was not exactly what I was expecting. I was kind-of expecting to have what the authors thought were their steamiest stories, instead it is just a steamy scene from each of the stories. This was very frustrating to read when you have not read the rest of the story, it was much easier when it came to a story I had already read and didn't feel completely like I was left hanging waiting for an ending that was not there. While I enjoy the steamy scenes in a story I just didn't find myself enjoying them as stand-alones with nothing else surrounding them. I just felt like there was so much missing in what I was reading with this set of scenes. As for the stories I had not read previously, I think this made me a little less likely to go out and find the rest of the book in the future.

A LITTLE "SOMUM SOMUM" FOR EVERYONE !!!
Yowza! Good Golly Miss Molly! You know when you're reading a good romance and you think to yourself, I wish they would hurry up and get to the good part, well in this book - they do! Oh my! Nothing but the best, the most erotic and hands down, the sexiest love scenes ever and nothing else throughout the entire book, and from some of the most popular and most well known darlings of romance today! And best of all, it has a little - somum, somum - for everyone, no matter your taste. If you can't find something you like in this collection, then you have a serious problem. LOL... My only problem was I found I liked everything! Romantic, Sexy, Erotic, Steamy, Sensual, Well Written and Hot! Fabulous entertainment and an awesome read!

do you ever read a book with a sizzling hot scene and re-read that scene over (and possibly over ) again, because, well because it was so good ? ( and maybe for ideas !) yes, then this is the set for you.
All those erotic, hot , steamy scenes have been brought together for our pleasure ! like V M Black's flight (the alphas captive #3) you wont forget Harper and Levi in a hurry, or. or the scene in the river from Viola Ricard's Honesty (running with the alphas #2). Suzy and City from Throttle me (men of inked #1) by Chelle bliss, had me wanting more.
I could go on but with 20 yes 20 erotic scenes to choose from, it'll be hard to pick your favourite, but it'll be fun re-reading them while you try to decide !

I received an arc in exchange for an hones review.

This book was amazing. It was HOT and STEAMY; just a taste of a delectable course. Complied from a lot of talented authors, this book does not disappoint. This was a great way to discover new authors as well. I can't wait to dive into some of these stories to see how they play out and hopefully get more scenes like those.
