💋 READER REVIEWS 💋

The Italian Affair just got me hot and bothered... Love all the details... Food, sex, wine, Italy. Does it get better than that? What I wouldn’t do to have a quarter of what Sabina and Gianmarco have. Have you read it? You should...

I love so many things about this... especially how the main character is so open about her sexual needs. She never plays games, never holds back, always tells him exactly what she wants without fearing rejection—which she sometimes gets. That is so refreshing in erotic literature! She is a great protagonist that we can’t help but love and identify with. And that is the heart of good storytelling.

First, I love the historical details, making the story breathe with life. Second, even though Sabina is insatiable with Gianmarco at all times, she is a lady: elegant, cultured, and refined. I was excited by the fact that she’s so high society, but yet so basic.

A hedonistic, bohemian, sexual foodie’s delicious drive through Italy. I devoured every morsel of this forbidden love affair, one succulent page after another.

Culture tells us we need to be more romantic to woo women: poetry, flowers & wine, dancing plus candlelit bedrooms.
In truth, both sexes enjoy receiving these tokens of love; however, romantic gestures performed by women are rarely depicted in traditional romance novels.
And why would they?
Men aren’t reading them!
The Italian Affair is clearly a great exception that breaks from the norm,
and that is why I find it so compelling.
Sabi showers her man with all sorts of romantic gestures--I lapped it up!
Believe me, this is NOT your ordinary romance novel!
