Review: Spring Into Summer By Eden Baylee

 
 
In Spring into Summer, a collection of emotionally-charged erotic novellas, four women explore their sexual limits, marked by love, lust, and loss.

Life for Claire Pelletier is changed forever when she meets a professor who teaches her a most important lesson in "A Season for Everything."

Evelyn Sutton goes in search of a man in "Unlocking the Mystery" and discovers the key to her own heart.

With an open mind, Ava Connors attends a party but wonders if reality can ever live up to her hottest fantasies in "Summer Solstice."

In "The Lottery," Sierra Zhao sacrifices herself to numerous men to help a friend, fully aware of the consequences.

With locations in London, Dublin, Cape Cod, and Bangkok, these four women will seek pleasure to alter their lives and push their sexual boundaries.
 
My Review:
 
As a reader, you are constantly searching for the next piece that will saturate your senses and and fill you with that inner peace and hope that so often comes only from books.  Since you are reading this, I know that you are like me and your essence is only whole when you have read a book that takes you to another place or level.  This is a book like that.  Sometimes we forget that happily ever-after means something different to everyone.  Your idyllic version of happily ever-after may fall short when it comes to comparison.  But the one thing I loved about this book was that the women in it weren't your glass slipper kind of girl.  They were real women, women that I have had the pleasure to work beside in my life and pass on the street.  There are a few short stories inside this book but my favorite was Ev's.  I felt more of kinmanship with her because she kept most of her feelings always locked away and shied away from commitment.   It wasn't that she didn't want it, she was just afraid of making the same mistake her mother did.  But after experiencing the love shared between two people through letters, she knew without a doubt it was something that she wanted as well.   All of the stories were really great, that one just happened to move me  because of similarities.  This book was an exceptionally good read and you will need a box of tissues.  Hats off to Eden for a wondrous tales from the heart type of book!!
