Three women, three stories, three transformations. Well I would not quite term them transformations, they are more a discovery of self and exploration of possibilities (smile). This is a great follow up to Ms. Rostova's first novel, The Captivation.

Reviewed in the United States on April 2, 2001
of an erotic novel but I certainly could not classify it as one of the best in the genre.
The story is based on the a few months of the lives and loves of three young professional women. Lydia the top exec at a womans mag, Cassie the English Lit professor and Molly the socialite that arranges parties debutante balls etc etc. If the HBO series of 'Sex in the City'comes to mind you are on target except that the book isn't funny.
The men are cut outs from Harequin novels from Nicalas the bearded geeky bookstore owner to Harker Trevane the strong willed author. Both of them of course have those rugged good looks and hidden sophistication and where would we be without the craggy lines around their eyes to show maturity. There are also of course younger men in the book, like Zack, who I believe were written in to provide filler and gratuitous sex entertainment. HO HUM .... YAWN
Except for Olive, the young clerk at the book store that stops Nicolas half way down the ladder for a 'snack' that refreshes I found the book has little eroticism but a lot of vanilla bean grade sex. I also got the impression that the three girls were very uptight no matter how many times they wear leather or get tied down.
Sorry haven't read the captivation, but I LOVED TEA AND SPICES by Nina Roy. Looks like the third is the charm for these authors ... now there is detailed and erotic book worth reading
