Polly is a curvaceous red head with low self esteem. Her long-time relationship with her semi-fiancé – semi since she caught him in bed with another woman during a surprise trip several months ago – is most definitely on the rocks. Not only because he has continually put her down and been unfaithful at least once, but also because her attraction to her personal trainer is very close to boiling over. Having been convinced by her slimy semi-fiancé it is her fault that he strayed, Polly took to comfort eating and piled on the pounds. Not hard to do when her business, Polly’s Provisions, specialises in decadent foods. Finding out her weight focused fiancé is to arrive home in ninety days after an absence of over a year, she has very little time to shed the weight she had put on and was quick to sign up to the Apollo Health and Fitness Club, who provide a personal trainer free for three months to those who sign up for three years. Her personal trainer is Nikolas Kokoris. He is a Greek God personified. This Greek born hunk has most definitely got Polly’s creative juices flowing...and other fluids besides. My, my, my...the fantasies she has spun about the two of them. Of course, she’ll never act on them...Until a bottle of Ouzo releases her inhibitions and loosens her tongue at the celebratory dinner she cooks and shares with Nick at her home, after she reaches her thirty pound weight drop target with days to go before her semi-fiancé arrives. But what exactly happens during that steamy night after she admits she feels more towards Nick than friendly? Does Nick feel the same attraction towards her? What is she going to do about the man that she considers herself unofficially engaged to? Will Nick find out exactly what a Merry Widow is?
Nick, joint owner of the Apollo Health and Fitness Club with his twin brother, Yorgo (George), has had a semi hard-on for the past three months thanks to the most gorgeous woman he has ever met – Polly Patrick. She is everything he has ever wanted in a woman. There is just one little problem – she is at his fitness club to tone her body for another man, her fiancé at that. Nick despairs that she’ll ever see him as more than a friend, and so he acts as if friendship is all he wants – until he finds out differently at the end of their three months together as trainer and trainee. Now it’s a whole different ball game. But there is still a fly in the ointment – on the night he finds out about Polly’s attraction to him and they share some of the most amazing sex he has ever experienced in his life, Polly is still semi-engaged. Unable to share the woman he is secretly in love with with another man, he tells her to make her choice – and he can’t be more delighted when she chooses him over a wastrel of a fiancé. Thus follows their steamy courtship as the couple get to know one another as lovers, as well as friends. But are Polly’s feelings for him as deep and all consuming as his are for her? Can this younger man keep up with his older lover’s insatiable sexual appetite? What is to come of Polly’s ‘curiosity’ about a threesome with his identical twin brother, George?
Polly’s Perilous Pleasures will most definitely have you reaching for the fire extinguisher to put out the fire created in you and the flames consuming your computer monitor. Polly’s Perilous Pleasures is hot, hot, hot! Ms Dexter Dobbs has created many sizzling and detailed love scenes in this tale which is undoubtedly a contemporary erotic – very erotic – romance. Polly’s love of role playing in her sex life is brilliantly described and brought to life in many a scene, all of which will leave you panting, some of which may leave you laughing and others of which will make you wish you had her stamina – and ability to bring your man’s jungle vine to full attention even after a vigorous workout for yet another go around. The threesomes towards the end of the novel are just as steamy and...satisfying as those with only Polly and Nick, though if threesomes aren’t your scene, even with identical twins who are identical in every way, then you might want to give this one a miss, since the threesomes are not casually mentioned but are as detailed as the steamy encounters between just Polly and Nick. I’ve never read a story with role playing before, but this heroine’s love and enthusiasm for this method of sexual play definitely got my attention. Polly and Nick are very well developed characters who each have their own insecurities, desires and wants, though some of these are very similar. Whilst they seem total opposites, their chemistry – on the screen and between them – makes them extremely well suited to each other. Overall, Polly’s Perilous Pleasures is a brilliant novel that, whilst having a large focus on the physical side of a relationship, also fully and eagerly addresses the emotional, making Polly’s Perilous Pleasures one to add to the keeper collection and Ms Dexter Dobbs an author to look out for.
