Editor Marilin Jayne Lewis presents a not very wide selection in The Big Book Of Hot Women’s Erotica. There are 21 stories included, all by lady writers and according to the author’s bios in the back all well known contributiors to the field. That said this is a 2004 edition and of the listed website I researched none are still in operation.
I had made it a goal to look around in erotic works but I hope to avoid the sullen billionaires and obvious crotchless panty rippers (Bodice Ripper seems too dated) titillation romance novels churned out like so many marshmallow peeps. The Big book proved to be what I intended. It has both heat and a reasonable level of craft. Even better it is a chance for a male reader to get a sample of what the ladies might like for their prurient interests.
Stories one (Albert’s Lunch ( Lisa Wolfe) and two (the titles are not always the language allowed in some reviews, authored by Kate Dominic) are so nearly like male fantasies that a man might have written these same stories. I began to wonder if the authors were ladies in name only. The rest of the stories are from a clearly female POV and I presume to female taste.
The repetition of a few themes lead me to believe that the editor had no intention to appeal to the wide variety of preferences one can find now that the field of the erotic romance novel has exploded into hundreds of subcategories. Most of the stories presented have a common element of dominated women, if domination lite, and more than a few of the vampire erotic. No mummies, werewolves, furries in general, SEALs, or average Joes, need apply.
My entirely non-trained opinion is that for at least these readers, the rape fantasy has been replaced with the magic or dominant male fantasy. The impression I get is that these are women with a taste for the wild, but who want the cover that it is the devil that makes (allows them) to express their appetites. The giveaway to me is that we are told that these are extreme appetites, but rarely what about them makes them extreme. The essence of what is here published as women’s erotica is that it is certainly hot, but almost never as anatomically explicit as would make any of these stories pornographic.
There are a few nicely placed turn arounds. The Permanent( Catherine Lunduff) has an extra spice added to the end making it more than just your average erotic short story. The ending of the Orange Grove (Kiini Ibura Salaam) changes everything you thought you were reading and is one of the most definitely woman’s POV of all the stories. In a few sentences, hers becomes a lovely stroll in the secret garden.
The Ping Pong Vampire (Janice Eidus) is wonderfully droll. Erotica is a field that needs satire and this is brilliant.
Possibly the best tiled: Need a Push to Swing (Maria Isabel Pita).
Since we all know that size does not matter. – Right? The Big book of Hot Women’s Erotica, 2004 is not that big. Less than 200 pages of stories split among 21 titles or an average of less than 10 pages per. If this is to your taste, likely you will not read it more than a few stories at a time.
