Product Description:
The pleasure is all yours if you're ready to let your fantasies take control and surrender yourself to desire...
'The Principles of Lust'
Sleek and sexy erotic art gallery owner Teal Jamison knows what she likes and isn't afraid to let carpenter Zack Dillon know that her current fantasy features him in all his masculine glory. But Zack has a deliciously different game in mind for a woman accustomed to taking charge...
'Passion Play'
Quick to follow where passion leads, then back off when things get too close, jewelry designer Mia Jones's sensual odyssey with singles columnist Dominick Jamison is perfect: hot, sweet, and with no risk of complications. But how long can her heart stay cold--when she's lost in the heat of a man devoted to every forbidden pleasure her body craves?
'Sexual Healing'
When massage therapist Caitlyn Ellis shows photographer Jack Lowell the joys of sensual self love for the camera, he can't resist the erotic invitation to take pleasure in her lush curves--or deny himself the hands-on ecstasy of loving a beautiful woman determined to heal his battered soul...by setting his body on fire.

To be fair...I read this book AFTER reading "Against The Wall" by Rhyannon Byrd. The cover of this book is beautiful & the 3 stories seemed like they would be VERY interesting. The bondage scenes in "Principles of Lust" left me lukewarm. And while I'd never read a story in "first person" before, like "Passion Play"...I soon discovered, that as far as reading goes...that's not what really does it for me. For me, the best story was "Sexual Healing". I like Caitlyn a lot. But I thought that Jack was a rather selfish lover and I didn't find anything really "erotic" about that. Not necesarily a bad book...but in my humble opinion if you're looking for SMOKING HOT chemistry and really erotic sex scenes buy "Against the Wall" by RB. Trust me, you won't be disappointed.

This book was OK. It wasn't one of those books that I couldn't put down but I finished it and it's now in my box of books to be donated to the library.

The Principles of Lust
Inspiration comes from unusual places, so when Teal Jamison very first saw the erotic photo, she knew exactly what she wanted to do. Starting her own erotic art gallery from the ground up is a daunting prospect, especially for someone without an art background. Still, Teal has always known what she wants and pursues it with a single-minded determination that more often than not gets her exactly that. Now, she wants finish carpenter Zach Dillon.
Although sexually attracted to Teal, Zach isn't sure she's the right woman for him. He likes his women a bit more submissive and willing to give up some control. Yet, when Teal begins her pursuit, he can no longer deny the feelings he has for her. Will he be able to show her that sometimes giving up control is exactly what they both need?
Passion Play
When they meet, Mia and Dominick Jamison are both at crossroads in their lives concerning their careers. Their meeting, a collision in the park, is as unexpected and explosive as Mia's personality. The attraction is immediate, and when they see each other again later that night, neither wants to deny it. They agree to a sex-only relationship but soon it becomes much more.
Mia and Dominick must decide on the paths for both their careers and their relationship. Although Mia was the one who initially wanted a sex-only relationship, she pushes Dominick to reveal and follow his dreams. Did she push too hard or will it bring them closer? Dominick cares for Mia and wants to help her be successful as well. Will asking his sister, Teal, to look at Mia's jewelry be something that pushes her away?
Sexual Healing
Caitlyn Ellis never expected to meet the perfect man for her while acting as a model for her best friend Mia's handmade jewelry. As soon as she sees photographer Jack Lowell, she knows he's the one. Even with his muddied aura, she instinctively knows it and knows she was meant to help heal him. Now, if she can only convince this closed-off, obviously hurting man that she's perfect for him...
Jack takes what Caitlyn so generously offers after the photo shoot and enjoys it immensely. He can't get her out of his mind but knows nothing can come of it. His past has colored his view of life and now he's just living day by day, trying to forget. So why does he open himself to this strange, yet sexual woman? Will he allow her in or push her away?
Sasha White's Lush is filled with fantastic characters and their stories of love and lust. Connected through the erotic art gallery, these couples are all different and face different challenges. What I really enjoyed was that each story within Lush is compelling and sensual, and the fact that each couple is searching for something. I enjoyed Teal and Zach's search for control in love and dominance, Mia and Dominick's quest to discover just what they need in their careers and partners, and Caitlyn and Jack's search for belief in good in the world and each other. And of course intertwined in all that searching is some sizzling hot sexual encounters that will keep you coming back for more from Ms. White.

I originally posted this review in a discusion and thought it'd be best to move it out to the general review section. . .
This anthology by Sasha White is a scorcher, so break out the oven mitts and get to reading!
In The Principles of Lust, Teal, overcome by the sensuality presented in a painting, her own passion motivates her to open an erotic art gallery. Nothing and no one will distract her from doing so. Not the pranksters who are trying to keep her from opening the gallery, not the hot carpenter she's hired to help her. . .well, maybe not. After all, Zack IS one hot Dom, and her libido is in overdrive with all the sexual 'reminders' all over her gallery.
This story made me laugh as it seemed the roles were reversed somewhat. She was the randy, ready for sex, skip the foreplay kind of woman and He was the one who wanted her to feel the connection, revel in her emotions. The intensity of their bond, his patience with her as she re-discovers her inner sensual energy is wonderful, making the story fairly hum.
The second story Passion Play is about Mia and Dominick, Teal's brother. Have you ever wished, in your own journey for a heart mate, you were able to just know who he/she was? Perhaps fate would bonk you over the head with him? This is what happens to this couple. Literally. Of course, Mia is not going to allow a man into her life, and she just walks away, even after a sizzling kiss. But don't you love Love at work? They meet again, and as it's said, 'there's no such thing as coincidences.'
There are many readers out there who don't care for stories in very first person. However, this story is a bit unique as it weaves a tale of two, alternating between his and her points of view. Almost like a he said, she said and it takes you on an almost voyeuristic ride, peeking into their personal diaries, as they discover each other and themselves. You have to love the scene when Mia takes Dom to a family event. Most of us have family members who are too self-absorbed for their own good. This scene left me cheering. My favorite part of the story was when Mia realized that perhaps she did want to love and be loved. And the way Sasha tied this story into the first? Seamless transition.
The last story, Sexual Healing, I'll admit, is my favorite. While I'm not a massage therapist, Caitlyn and I share a lot of similar traits. I just love how she's so incredibly REAL and comfortable with herself. Caitlyn is Mia's best friend and soul sister. There's another seamless transition in novellas, as she's sent to Jack, a photographer to be the model for some of Mia's jewelry. Caitlyn doesn't need fate to intervene, she's intuitive enough to know that Jack is meant to be with her. Now, she just has to convince HIM, and heal his fragile heart in the process. Can she win him over? Will he realize she's what he needs? Did you REALLY think I'd share the ending with you!?

"The Principles of Lust". Teal Jamison is opening up Lust, an erotic art gallery, but with all the hot work and the sensual artists, she craves carpenter Zachary Dillon. He feels the same way, but he plans to be on top of this take charge female masterpiece in the boudoir.
"Passion Play". Erotic jewelry designer Mia Jones and singles columnist wannabe novelist Dominick Jamison enjoy their sexual trysts, but both fear permanence even as their bodies crave more.
"Sexual Healing". Massage therapist Caitlyn Ellis "reads" the battered aura of hurting photojournalist Jack Lowell. She decides to show him the healing power of sex between two caring attracted adults. She did not expect to find his heat would mend her heart too.
These three erotic contemporary romances star likable protagonists learning how much greater sex is with the right partner. Although the BDSM scenes seem forced (no pun intended) appetizers, readers will enjoy these fine torrid novellas
