Sylvia Day, ASK FOR IT
Sylvia Day, Ask For It: it's nice to see a historical erotic romance set in England's Georgian period; are there more that I've been missing? It seems a perfect fit for erotica, what with the men peacocking around in wigs and gorgeously colored silk, and the women swinging panniers and dotting patches on their faces.
For me, the enjoyment value of this book was all in the sex scenes, which were well-written, engaged me in their characterization, and were not repetitive. The spy plot, I felt, was a bit perfunctory, and several times I was confused about some point or other. In that respect, it was very similar to many other spy romances I've read, whether set in the Georgian or Regency periods.
I enjoyed the book, and plan to read another of hers.
