Book Description
Would you dare step back in time to
find Mr. Right?
A frustrated Las Vegas party girl
discovers a Red Mirror in an antique mall and succumbs to the lure of the
bold-eyed woman in the glass. “Come,” the Mirror beckons, “taste of a life more
sensuous than any dream.”
The exotic life that tempts is one she
once lived as Isis, priestess in the mystic cult of Hathor, Egyptian Goddess of
Love. "I have secrets," her aura teased. "Wonderful secrets that
only I can share."
On the banks of the ancient Nile, she
meets River God of bronzed flesh and snowy linen. "You shall fly to the
stars with my tongue on your lotus," he breathes in her ear. Alas, the
gods have other plans. Isis finds herself first on a quest for the all-powerful
Emerald Tablet, and then without warning, back in Las Vegas.
Uncertain and unnerved, Isis joins best
friend Barb for a surprise encounter that compels her to go back through the
Red Mirror in search of River God. But a desert hunt goes all wrong, and Isis
the sex slave lands in the grip of the Persian General's thick fingers.
"If you please me," he proposes, "you will belong to me and me
alone, but only as long as I am pleased." One fateful night, a ride on a
comet shows Isis the dark side of love and sets the price she must pay for
freedom.
"There is more to this collection than a
love story. Add in reincarnation and mysterious artifacts that cross time. The
writing is high quality and full of imagery. I highly recommend Ms Gore's
work."
Four hot men crossing back and forth
through time. They all want her. Who will have her? Does she have to choose?
Who says a woman should have only one
man?
Who says there's a Mr. Right?
One man is not enough for Isis. One
life is not enough.
She has the Power - The Hathor Power.

vignettes.
"I was transported
through time to a world of Egyptian gods and goddesses, temples and high
priestesses, honeyed dates and cleansing oils. And a woman who will never
be satisfied by just one man, although Isis does love them all with great
intensity. She has great taste too - these men are to die for."
The Isis Erotica collection is
comprised of three connected adventures
that can be downloaded
as ebooks in three parts: The Red Mirror, The Persian General and The Great
Green
Part Two: The Persian General. A wild desert hunt goes all wrong when Isis is kidnapped by the Persian General. A bull of a man with legs like the columns of a temple, he holds her life in his thick fingers. But Isis has a destiny, and Isis has the Power - the Hathor Power.
Part Three: The Great Green. Isis is the chosen one, chosen by her father Hermes Trismegistus to protect the Emerald Tablet. But Isis needs protection herself from the evil Crown Prince and the invading Persians. Cosmic forces bring together the circle of souls in two passion-filled nights - one below deck on River God's ship on the Nile and the other on the Las Vegas Strip.
Interview:
From
the Author~ Why
three versions of the same Isis story?
Let's call it an exercise to see if I could take on 3 different voices and write in 3 different styles. And then let's blame it on First Readers' feedback.
I wrote Isis Erotica in response to input from readers who shared that they photocopied the sexy parts of The Red Mirror (formerly Isis) before passing on the book. So why not put together a boiled-down version of the Isis story, cutting out a couple of characters and leaving the adventure and action while pumping up the sex? I like to call this my X-rated version.
Next, in response to my first readers who were uncomfortable with the explicit sex of the original version now titled The Red Mirror, I wrote Isis Beach Read as a zippier version, cutting characters, simplifying Egyptian names and sanitizing the sex. The sex scenes are still there, but more is left to the reader's imagination. I call this version PG-16. Although I must admit, I would have read this book at 13 and not blushed at all.
This book was pretty cool. It had a paranormal twist, and was about Egypt. I have not read a time travel Egypt romance before. Throw in the erotica and this is like nothing I have ever read before. I found it really interesting that there are 3 short stories, and each is still unique. I also thought that it is cool of the author to do different versions based on sex content.
The magic mirror story was my favorite! It reminded me of the mirror from fairy tales, but with an adult twist. The second story reminded me of Greek mythology, and then my mind went through all sorts of mythology. I would like to see this author write adult versions of other mythology stories. The last story I liked because it took place in two different places and times. The author flowed the characters perfectly through time. I really liked this book. It was refreshing and new. I also like that it is not the typical genres I see all the time, like westerns or regencies. The author also includes an adult table of contents. This definitely made me think about ancient Egypt in a new light! I am giving this book a 5/5. I was given a copy to review, however all opinions are my own!

I would love the chance to read this. I like paranormal and Egypt. I named all my cats after the gods/godesses and one happens to be Isis :)
ReplyDeleteThe Isis Erotica trilogy sounds amazing and quite unique. It's always refreshing to come across stories based on non-western mythologies.
