Toys-4-Us seven stand-alone book series.

Toys-4-Us is a seven stand-alone book series.  It felt, to me, like seven of todays hottest erotic authors got together and said let’s do an exercise.  Imagine we are at a sex toy party.  Each of us take a character and go…  These are the smokin’ hot short stories they came up with. 

A Long Time Comin’ by Cerise Deland - Long-time pal and Delta Force hunk comes home and is seduced with a little help from Toys-4-Us.
Bound and Determined by Desiree Holt – Uptight lawyer, hunky next door neighbor Toys-4-Us.
Good Vibrations by Nicole Austin – Asshat ex, Friends turn lovers with a little help from Toys-4-Us.
Private Showing by Brenna Zinn – Woman with a dream, sexy Scottish computer geek fireworks with a little help from Toys-4-Us.
Slippery When Wet by Allie Standifer – Another asshat ex, Friends turn lovers with a little help from Toys-4-Us.
Wet Ride by Samantha Cayto - Uptight business exec, hunky contractor Toys-4-Us.
Whiz Bang by Regina Carlysle – Bored woman, sexy bar owner friend, exotic local and Toys-4-Us.

I enjoyed each of these stories for different reasons.  I found however that in some the Toys-4-Us device was a detriment rather than a help.  Needing to fit it in disrupted the flow.  Conversely sometimes it made for a wonderful moment in the story.

I'm thrilled you enjoyed the books, Donna. We had a toy party for Allie's birthday. Just imagine seven erotic romance authors, all a bit tipsy from chocolate wine, talking sex toys. Yup, one thing led to another and that's how the Toys-4-Us series was born. :D

Donna, You have really made my day. And you hit the nail on the head. That's exactly what we did. The chocolate wine sure helped the creative process. Thanks so much for blogging about us.
