Lock the door and get ready to follow your bliss…

Kara is a sex columnist who believes lovemaking is a natural physical function and nothing more. When she meets a J.M―a Tantra master who thinks sex is the way to reach a higher spiritual plane―she thinks he's whacked. But when he volunteers to tutor her in the ancient sensual arts and show her what Tantra is all about―one look at his smoking hot body and wildly good looks, and it's an offer she can't refuse.

After a few intoxicating nights in J.M.'s arms, Kara feels a deep connection to the man who's brought her most decadent fantasies to life. And she wonders if the soul-shattering bliss she's experienced has something to do with Tantra--or if J.M.'s simply stolen her heart…

Hi. I'm Opal Carew, a New York Times and USA Today bestselling author. I write erotic romance for St. Martin's Press and Samhain Publishing, and I self-publish stories. I also write romance as Amber Carew.

So why do I like writing erotic romance? I like being able to push beyond traditional boundaries. I like dealing with a female character who is growing and evolving - questioning her sexual boundaries and pushing past them. My stories usually include menage a trois. It is great fun to write a heroine choosing between two equally appealing heroes... or more.

These aren't women who just jump into bed with anyone. They find themselves in an unusual situation - something exciting and erotic - but a situation where they have to push themselves beyond their comfort level. As a result, they grow as a person. So often fear holds us back - of what others will think of us, of what we will think about ourselves - and we don't follow our hearts. These women push past that fear.

This was a book I couldn't, nor did I want to, put down! The story line progresses nicely as does the sexual content...nice balance of both. I also enjoyed the fact the book is written well and is a quick read - easy to get entwined in the story. I recommend this book, this author and look forward to the other experiences Opal has written.

If you are offended by graphic sexual content, do not read this book (or any of Opal Carew's books). If, on the other hand, you like spicy sexy stories about strong women who know what they want and go out and get it, then start reading all of her books - they are great!!

I really like this book I would give this a A++. But when I got it I had no idea that it was kind of a series. The first book is Blush and Bliss is the second half. I kind of picks up for the main male role.

4.0 out of 5 stars Lust leads to HEA, with a little Tantric sex along the way
Reviewed in the United States on October 21, 2010
Verified Purchase
Although the hero, J.M., believes in love at first sight, the real story here is about Kara's reluctant passage from simply being "in lust" to being in love with J.M. Along the way, the hero arranges for her to experience consensual anonymous sex with a stranger, a M/F/M threesome, light bondage and even four male partners (the latter sort of a mini-gang-bang). The Tantric sex is discussed more than actually practiced in the novel.

With so many taboos violated, I found it puzzling that the two lovers did not also engage in a F/M/F or F/F/M threesome. It certainly would have been a natural development given the plot. After all, the book is as much about indulging in hot, recreational sex for sheer physical pleasure as it is about Kara inadvertently finding her HEA.

The author writes very strong, highly titillating sex scenes, and she uses some good plotting techniques to carry most of it off. I found Kara's initial one-night-stand with a stranger she met just a few hours before(J.M., the hero-to-be of the novel) somewhat believable, but the consensual anonymous sex with another stranger she's never even laid eyes on, not very believable.

3.0 out of 5 stars Sex scenes needed more emotional development. Tantra sex ideas were interesting. Heroine was disappointing.

REVIEWER'S OPINION:
It felt like most of the book consisted of sex scenes, but the actual page count puts them at about 34%. Kara was ok in the beginning, but by the end of the book, I didn't like her. She was like a selfish kid in a candy store. She meets JM and has amazing sex with him. Then she says can we do it with two men? Then she wants to do it with more than two men. Then she wants men kidnapping her, tying her up, and having their way with her. She keeps asking for more. JM is happy to create and fulfill all of her fantasies. He's doing it out of love. She's not. She is insensitive to JM at one point by going off with another man, hoping JM won't know, but he does. I did not like her when she did that. It felt contrived for the purpose of conflict. Sure she has some issues from her past (fear of abandonment and hurt by someone she loves), but her actions make her unsympathetic. I didn't see any reason for JM to fall in love with her. But since JM had been visualizing someone coming into his life, the mystical connection is supposed to provide the validity for his "love at first sight." I reluctantly accepted that.

I like sex scenes that are emotionally charged, but there wasn't enough emotional development. As a result I was kind of bored with the sex. I liked the sex in the beginning, but without the emotional element, it became repetitive. There wasn't much story, so read this for the sex, not the story. Tantra ideas are part of this including the idea of whole body orgasm which was interesting, but I wanted more details. There is group sex (multiple men with one woman), rear door activity, and light bondage.

STORY BRIEF:
JM is a (sex) tantra master and author of a book. He will be a speaker at a week long sex conference. Kara writes a sex column for a woman's magazine. She is attending the conference for the purpose of spicing up her column. They first meet on an airplane sitting next to each other. The trip is delayed due to weather, and they spend the night together in a hotel. Kara is doing "sex with a stranger for one night" and thinks she'll never see him again. She is shocked to see him at the conference. JM has been visualizing a perfect woman coming into his life. When he sees Kara he feels she is the one and falls in love at first sight. He hopes to convince her of the same thing after a week together at the conference.

DATA:
Story length: 238 pages. Swearing language: mild. Sexual language: strong. Number of sex scenes: 17. Approximate number of sex scene pages: 81. Setting: current day Cleveland, Ohio, and Indianapolis, Indiana. Copyright: 2010. Genre: erotic contemporary romance.

JM - the Tantra master - has decided he needs to find his soul mate. After a brief meeting at the Airport he decides this person is Kara. Problem is Kara only believes in "lust" and not love. JM therefore has to convince her otherwise.

The book does has plenty of sex scenes, mainly dealing with Kara's fantasies rather than Tantra. Although by the end of the book Kara does believe Tantra can take her to a different level of enjoyment.

If you are looking for a book of erotic fiction this is for you.
