Desire: The Dining Club Part One by Marina Anderson

I received an advanced reading copy of this story on Netgalley and I'm glad I did. It's a short story - only 10,000 words, so took me only a short while to read it, and is designed to be read as part of a series. So far I know there are 4 in the series and I think there may be more as well.

It is in the 'erotica' genre on Netgalley because it is a very sexual story - in fact the first paragraph is a description of a sexual act between Grace and David. Their relationship is going well, but David wants to introduce Grace to The Dining Club, which is more than what the name suggests.

Although I really enjoyed this story I did feel that it was far too short. It ends on a cliff hanger - will she/won't she - which makes the reader want to go out and read the next instalment, but if I had bought this I would have felt a bit cheated. It's shorter than a short story and feel that perhaps part 1 and 2 could have been combined together. I was surprised when this story ended as it hadn't really begun.

However, it was well written - the characters were built up well in a short space of time and the descriptions certainly did what they were meant to do.

I would certainly recommend it to fans of the erotica genre, but it's just a small snippet into a larger part and you will need to read all of them to feel satisfied!
