Legs by Dee Dawning
Publisher: eXtasy Books
Genre: Erotic Romance
Summary: A rising star in the modeling and acting fields, Mallory Robbins, is captivated by Drew Stevens, the most beautiful man she has ever seen after he helps her out of an embarrassing entanglement with a drunken, would-be suitor. Her attraction for Drew is so great that she uncharacteristically spends that night joyously and blissfully making love with her newfound dream lover—only to be later kidnapped, along with Drew and whisked to some unknown location.
The next morning, Mallory awakes having no memory of her whereabouts or the events leading to her being there. Enduring a severe headache, she becomes absolutely terrified when she catches a glimpse of herself in a dresser mirror wearing the authentic coverings, including a veil, of a devout Muslim woman. Things become even more confusing when a young woman, also dressed in traditional Arab garments, visits Mallory and informs her that she has been brought there to become Saudi Prince Ali’s fourth wife. WHAT IS GOING ON?
Thus begins a bizarre and sensuous odyssey, in which Mallory is scheduled to marry a Saudi Prince and Drew is in danger of being beheaded for soiling the Prince’s fiancé.
Author’s warning: There is a scene in Legs, which includes a flashback to a gang rape.
My Review: I really, really wanted to like this book. The concept of the plot is actually interesting and fairly well-developed. Dee Dawning also added in a little action and tons of erotic sex, making the book a little more enjoyable. The descriptions of people in places in t
he book were also very good. I even liked all of the characters and their development. My main problem with the book was the very unrealistic dialogue and circumstances. For instance, Mallory has a discussion with her friend that she would never have oral sex with a stranger and five minutes later, she is doing just that. Another example was when the detectives went to interview Mallory’s friends and within a few minutes, they were doing a lot more than just interviewing. I could never imagine two detectives going to interview a couple ladies in a kidnapping case and end up having sex with them. In addition to the dialogue and circumstances, was that the writing just did not flow well enough to keep my attention. I suppose if someone was looking for a book that had a lot of hot sex, this book would be good, as long as you don’t mind the unrealistic situations surrounding the hot bouts of sex.
