The Red
by Tiffany Reisz
Buy on AmazonMona will do just about anything to save her late mother’s art gallery. Enter Malcolm, a mysterious (sexy) stranger with an unusual (and sexy) proposition – permission to do whatever he wants with her body in exchange for help saving her gallery. This familiar plot gets a smart and intriguing twist: Each sexual encounter is staged like a famous work of art. They start with Manet’s Olympia and move onto William-Adolphe Bouguereau’s Nymphs and Satyr, and James Sharples’ A Portrait of a Gentleman among others. Let’s just say that these scenes make for some very interesting subway reading.
