Overall review:
Solid anthology - if you don't mind plot-lite/mood-pervasive stories. Five pieces in this eighteen-story collection are excellent; the remainder, with the exception of one, are worthwhile in a generic sex fantasy way.
The story I didn't like, Regina Kammer's "An Age Play," starts out great, but the female protagonist's selfish opportunistic betrayal of her husband's reluctant goodwill and weakness proved to be a mood- and story-killer for me. Too bad, because it was an otherwise standout story.
This anthology is worth picking up for a discount price, if you're entertained by (mostly) middle-of-the-road sex writing.
Standout stories:
1.) "Underpants" - K.D. Grace: Fun, sexually creative work, with a nice twist in the mix.
2.) "The Hotel" - Anika Ray: A couple's role play gets imbued with darker implications - is it part of their game, or is it something more?
3.) "New Day, New Life" - Andrea Dale: In Prague, a post-cancer woman and her husband indulge in one of her unrealized fantasies. Strong blend of plot and emotional content.
4.) "Jenna's Gambit" - Jeremy Edwards: Short offbeat tale about a couple engaging in voyeurism and water sports - without the usual, inherent ick factor.
5.) "The Female Gaze" - Rachel Kramer Bussel: A threesome results in life-changing realizations for a couple.
