Ecstatic Passion

Dr. Ruth once said legendary editor Rachel Kramer Bussel "is only satisfied if you come and come again." Bussel, the editor of the bestsellers Orgasmic and Gotta Have It, has captured 69 top erotica writers serving up steamy scenarios all focused on the Big O. The characters in The Big Book of Orgasms have fun exploring their desires and reaching new depths of pleasure with lovers who range from sweet to sweetly kinky.

A man's sexy strut incites a woman to take matters "In Her Hands" in Tenille Brown's story, while the narrator of Emerald's "Payback" rekindles an old flame and ignites a spectacular passion. Bussel's own searing "I'm on Fire" reveals all the pleasures to be gained through obedience. These are climaxes you'll want to relive more than once.
