How realistic is it to believe that one lover can satisfy a woman's every fantasy?
Nia Simone Bijou is a woman who has it all - and is driven by the desire for more. Born in Trinidad, reared in Los Angeles, living in Atlanta, Nia is a writer, a thinker, and a woman in conflict. She's dealing with two sides of her Gemini self, feeling as if there are two women living inside her, both struggling for domination. One side of Nia is a logical yet heartbroken person who has never let go of an old pain, while the other side is a sensual woman who will not let her rest, desiring intimacy and sexual freedom, demanding Pleasure.
In the sweltering heat of July, loneliness, desire, and a struggle with both the sensual self and fantasy inspire Nia to become sexually adventurous, meeting lovers who arouse her in diverse ways, lovers who give her unimaginable experiences, generous lovers who desire to please her as much as she desires to satisfy them. Fantasies spiral out of control, and with her life on the line, Nia discovers that Pleasure does not come without pain.
Filled with passion, populated with characters that are sexually uninhibited, Pleasure is an unforgettable journey into a free-spirited world.
Nia Simone Bijou takes an erotic journey through summertime Atlanta, exploring the wilder sides of her sensual nature. Meeting identical twin brothers, Nia races with them into an emotional and seductive storm of graphically described sexual acts. Susan Spain tells Nia's first-person story as though she were reading her own diary out loud. Passion is tempered by detachment, and screams of pleasure never reach the full fever pitch they would in real life. This slight holding back enables the listener to stay with the story in a way that might not be possible, at least in public, with a fully performed presentation. Even so, both story and narration provide a healthy dose of imagined erotica. R.L.L. (c) AudioFile 2008, Portland, Maine
