Imagine a sixth star! This was brilliant and so descriptive! I loved the cleverness and the tense dialogue.

With your vivid descriptions, I could imagine what the entire scene looked like. I see why it's best of the best!

Love the laconic humour in this well-constructed story. eg You fucker!" he growls at me.
"Well, I used to,"

The twist is superbly crafted. Never saw it coming, even though it emerges organically from the earlier part of the story.
A tough one to beat in the contest.

I like your story, Rachelle. It's both funny and evocative. You have a knack for dialogue and banter. But, I'm not sure you have the male voice, nor the male psyche correct. I may be way off base, Rachelle, but your male protagonist sounds like a character without enough dimension.
I think you can do better, Shelley. Don't buy into FS praise. I love you, and I'm telling you straight.

Wow! And I just finished reading your zen poem!! In my review, I perceptively stated that you have a knack for peaceful zen. Now I must say that you have a knack for titillating sexual prose. You can do anything, girl. This was riveting. And you even managed to capitalize on your fashion expertise using the absence of fabric in those bikinis.
This was great!

You're destined to be the site's female Lancellot. This was so funny, too. Vito's last name, which I won't try to write, makes him sound like a gangster. Great description of the characters and their behavior. Vito has himself the perfect trophy wife in Lilianna. Turns out she's not so dumb, though, as she will soon be awarded $400 million dollars. (Hope I read that right.) Jesse also has reason to divorce his own wife, as he's a PI and has the goods on Vito and Cleo. This is not a scene that I'm in any way familiar with, but it is probably the norm among some of the Hollywood elite. Great dialogue. I like the turn-the-tables ending with Lilianna beingJJesse's client.

    Hahaha. The female Lancellot. So then, Lancellette?

    Thanks for this absolutely fantastic review. Yes, sometimes people underestimate bimbos. Gawd knows Vito did!!

    Thanks, Judi! Xoxo

    You're welcome. Thoroughly enjoyed. I was wondering what particular state this might have occurred in. It's easier to see this happening in some states than in others. judi

    It's in DC...you know, where all our lawmakers congregate...

    Oh, my. No wonder Jesse can afford to live in such a ritzy neighborhood. He must have the goods on a lot of politicians. judi

Well done! I enjoyed this story. You did a good job of creating a wonderful story of revenge when it appeared to be a story going in a completely different direction. I don't know if you needed the adult warning on this. It wasn't vulgar or graphic.

    The warning was a requirement of the contest., so that's why I did it. Unlike the members of that neighborhood, I, personally, am a rule follower.

LoL. Wow, this erotic story flows well and the characters are well developed. It's easy to visualize the scene .. Sodom and Gomorrah-ish. It has all the eye candy for the guys and the humor for us ladies. Hahaha

I went through a period when I wrote a lot of erotic poetry, now I'm more into romance but sometimes can be steamy (*÷*) u la la


Great job, Rachelle, I love the ending.... I didn't expect it...
An awesome entry for the Erotic Writing Contest. Makes me want to write something lol...nah, I'll leave it to the pros, like you.

Good luck!!!!

Gypsy

What a hoot! Great fun, Rachelle. I discovered it by looking at the pictures , then I started in to the intro copy. But I couldn't stop there so I ventured on. Best line: She opened her legs like barbeque tongs...

    Yessss! Brad, thank you times a million zillion, because that was MY favorite line, too, and no one mentioned it until you.

    Thank you for this terrific review!! Xoxo
reply by Brad Bennett on 05-Feb-2025
    Favorite line for me, Rachelle. Sometimes, I wonder if some people are really reading my stuff or just skimming through it.
    I must read more of your postings. I'm learning a lot from your style.

    Hmm! Now you have me intrigued. Xo o

    I will start reading soon. In the meantime, I gotta rewrite some of my stuff; someone told me I use too many adverbs. That is a recurring, upsetting, but improving, informing message. :>)

LOL! Okay, so the pen went there, I see... you could do a stint on the soap opera Broken Hearts Club... :) ;) Certainly has the heat and back-stabbing and surprise necessary... :) ;) Thanx for sharing (I think... wink, wink!) and best of luck! ;) Yvette
