Recommendation
To have the pleasure *ahem* of being taught by a delicious hunk of man candy how to be sexy at a hands on *ahem* retreat is pretty much the fantasy of every housewife everywhere. If only Justice Drake lived in real life and I had the cash to enroll in his course, I’d be the next Dita von Teese. I JUST KNOW IT. But in this story, Justice gets sidetracked from his task at hand *ahem* and becomes enamored by Ally, an under-sexed housewife. Lucky, lucky Ally. SL Jennings brings out the sexy in Taint, especially as I read it with her muse, Michael Thurston, the cover model. Picturing all of those abs at my fingertips *ahem* made for a very healthy and enjoyable beach read. ~ Angie [4 stars]
Taint has such a fabulously smutty premise, it’s hard not to get sucked into it. Blisteringly hot Mike Thurston is the perfect muse for the Adonis sex-instructor, Justice Drake. The friendship and relationship that grows between Justice Drake and Ally caught me by surprise. Justice get points for not going to full-on seducer mode to woo the (unhappily) married Ally. ~ Nelle [4 stars]
Part romance, part sexual counsel, part “what is going on here?!”
Sex, scandal, and the social elite.
I liked to imagine Michael Thurston saying all the really dirty parts to me. *giggle* ~ Kyleigh Jane [4 stars]
This book is sexy as hell, even before there is any actual sex. Justice is commanding, gorgeous, confident and very broken and alone. It’s no wonder women swoon at his voice and shiver at his touch. This book is thick with sexual tension and I loved every word of it. ~ Adrian [4-1/2 stars]
When reading the book blurb, you think it’s going to be nothing but hot sex every 20 pages, but you actually get a great male POV storyline, with character depth, touching moments, humorous moments, and the “house-crashing-down-around-us” moments. Yes, there is hot sex, but not overly done or in massive quantities, which I think fits the storyline. You see and hear the internal struggles of Justice, his wants and needs, and the dawning realization of being in love. This book surprised me on the story and twists, plus how much I enjoyed it. Granted, I’ve loved everything SL Jennings has written. It helped me get over a book slump and I would definitely recommend it. ~ Marissa [4-1/2 stars]
Oh SL Jennings… You give good cover!!! Michael Thurston is hotness personified, so he is the perfect muse for Justice Drake.
Sexual life coach, Drake, has a new class full of uppity wives who have some issues in the husband-pleasing department. To his surprise, he has become enamored with a spunky redhead named Ally.
Humorous, sexually fantastical, romantic, and just plain fabulous! Read in one sitting; would absolutely recommend! ~ Theresa [4-1/2 Stars] [May 2014]
Publisher synopsis
Right now, you’re probably asking yourself two things:
Who am I?
And, what the hell are you doing here?
Let’s start with the most obvious question, shall we?
You’re here, ladies, because you can’t f*ck.
Oh, stop it. Don’t cringe. No one under the age of 80 clutches their pearls.
You might as well get used to it, because for the next six weeks, you’re going to hear that word a lot. And you’re going to say it a lot.
Go ahead, try it out on your tongue.
F*ck. F***ck.
Ok, good. Now where were we?
If you enrolled yourself in this program then you are wholly aware that you’re a lousy lay. Good for you. Admitting it is half the battle.
For those of you that have been sent here by your husband or significant other, dry your tears and get over it. You’ve been given a gift, ladies. The gift of mind-blowing, wall-climbing, multiple-orgasm-inducing sex. You have the opportunity to f*ck like a porn star. And I guarantee, you will when I’m done with you.
And who am I?
Well, for the next six weeks, I will be your lover, your teacher, your best friend, and your worst enemy. Your every-f*cking-thing. I’m the one who is going to save your relationship and your sex life.
I am Justice Drake.
And I turn housewives into whores.
Now…who’s first?
