Tiffany Reisz
Genre: Erotic short stories, Romance
Rating: 3
Derek Prince's night on the town takes a sexy turn when he meets a mermaid. No, not a real one, but one of the nearly legendary beautiful, virginal women who entertain Manhattan's most prominent men. Entranced, by her beauty and charm, he follows her into the infamous nightclub, Fathoms where he discovers how the other half really live!
I really liked this sexy, contemporary adaptation of The Little Mermaid. Although there is no actual magic or mermaids involved, this erotic short still tinged my nostalgia for the Disney film even as it turned up the heat.
What I loved about Immersed in Pleasure was that the hero, Derek, doesn't try to sweep Xenia off her feet and take her away from her life. The heroine is not some damsel in distress, but a strong woman who can take care of herself. Unlike many popular romances today, Xenia doesn't just throw her life away for her man. I won't spoil the end for you as it has an interesting little plot twist, but I enjoyed it very much.
I also really loved that the narration of the story unfolded as Derek told his guy friends about how he and Xenia met. The funny little interruptions of his buddies asking for more info had me chuckling and added to the fun tone of the book.
Recommended for those looking for a sweet and spicy short!
