Netgalley Synopsis: *A CHOOSE YOUR OWN DESTINY NOVEL*

You know that internet dating is a tricky game to play, but you've done your homework and you've narrowed down your list to three international men of mystery. All that's left to do now is meet them . . . 

* Will you head to New York City to meet the hunky and heroic fireman you've been talking to?
* Or is your number one choice an adventure in Amsterdam with a Bohemian sculptor?
* There's also the impossibly handsome Italian count who sends you poetic praise from his palazzo in Venice and who makes your insides melt. 

Whichever way you decide to go, each twist and turn will lead to an unforgettable encounter. Can you choose the ultimate sensual experience? Remember: if your first choice doesn't hit the spot, then start over and try something (and someone) new. The power is entirely yours in this fully interactive, choose your own destiny novel.


My Thoughts: I requested this book because it reminded me of the Choose Your Own Adventure books that I loved as a kid. Even though this book is not at all child friendly, it is still fun.

It is, of course, written in second person because the reader is the protaganist. I found this to be incredibly easy to read and I fell into the story (stories) with ease.

I am certain that the author has been to the cities featured in the book because of the detail, take Venice for example, I felt like I was there as it is described so intricately. This detail makes this book a bit more than a 'let's just get to the sex' kind of book. Speaking of the sex, that is well done and it does what you want the sex in this kind of novel to do without being like a cheap, unscripted porno film.

All the secondary characters are fun, from the leechy old man to the smokin' hot fireman. They are all well written, seem very real and play of the reader's character very well.

Overall, the was a very enjoyable, quick and steamy read and I recommend it to anyone who likes erotica that has real characters that have real sex.
