Read more of my reviews and ramblings at Ana's Attic Book Blog
I rarely wear my husband out, but the last day or two we've been like rabbits! Why? Because I read the Marriage Diaries by Erika Wilde. Holy Hotness! This series is everything a short hot novella series should be. I swear, the author was IN MY HEAD, reading all of my fantasies! I have been married over 20 years, and I just loved reading about a hot as hell, sexy couple that was in a long term marriage as well.
In Book 3:
One of Jillian's fantasies (stranger/captive) is about to come true.
Holy shit! I told Mr. Ana about this one....I want to play! Man, this was H-O-T! I love the comfort and security the couple gets from knowing and trusting the other so well. Yet Dean's aggressive side is so fucking sexy, and he knows how to use it.
Jillian has been building a playroom in the basement of their home, and in this installment, they finally get to use it. This time, Jillian gets to play Mistress. I'll tell you, I really like the submissive role, but this installment of The Marriage Diaries has me re-thinking that a bit. Though honestly, I can't imagine my alpha guy letting me tie him up, it might be fun to try.
Each of these books are about 40 pages. They are quick reads and they are good for pre-bedtime reading (if you know what I mean). If you are reading these alone, make sure you have a toy nearby, or visit my erotic toystore to pick up some of the items you might find in the books. Or toys you'll need while reading it. :-D
These books can be read individually (My vajayjay needed a break so I read another book in between).
My husband and I went through a similar sexual revitalization after about 19 years of marriage (thanks to some of my favorite sexy books). We both started sharing our fantasies more, and my husband's dominant side is hot as hell. He and Dean actually reminded me of each other. In the last 3 years, our marriage has become so much stronger and way hotter now that we finally came clean (or dirty) with our fantasies and brought some of the kink in. So I really related to these books. I realized that some of that hot spark we've had has been dying out again, but this series brought it right back!
So Erika, I thank you, and so does Mr. Ana. My vajayjay however (and the muscle I pulled) are not as happy with you afterwards.

Rating: 5 stars for a ladyporn novella series, 5+++ heat
It seems strange to give this 5 stars when there really isn't much much character development. But that's not what we read this for. You know how sometimes you just need a good hard fucking? That's what this is like. Sometimes you need a little sex with your story, sometimes a little story with your sex. This series is the latter, and that's just fine for a change.
Usually when I read a novelette, I feel it is missing something. How good can something be in 40 pages? But I have to tell you, these deliver what they are intended for. Lady Porn for the married moms (though I think a guy would like these too). There was just enough story to keep you interested, and the characters were very likable. I never felt like I needed more story, it was just right. I look forward to reading Erika Wilde's next story and see what her spin-off series is all about.

- -Reading about a couple who have been married for 19 years.
- -I loved how Dean and Jillian finally came out and admitted the things they have fantasized about.
- -How attracted the couple still is to each other.
- -Dean is so alpha and commanding. Yum.
- -How the trust between them just made it all so much easier.
- -Almost every sex act is something I have fantasized about or done and want more of.
- -Though each of these were short, they were just right for what they are.
- -The sex acts were long and detailed without using words that make me snort or roll my eyes.
- -I never felt like I needed more, these stories delivered what the intended.
Dislikes:
- -None!

When I first read Volume 1 of this series, I was amazed that the author was able to pull off packing so much emotion and heat into a short story. Now I've come to expect it, and I'm so glad that it's always delivered. I love reading about Dean and Jillian. It says alot that despite the length of the stories, you really start to see the development of the characters. This was a fun installment & being able to glimpse Jillian totally owning Dean was lots of fun!
My favorite lines from this installment:
"She'd stolen his heart way back then, and he could easily say she still owned him, body and soul. Even after nineteen years of marriage." Loc 275
"Amusement coursed through him, because he'd never in his life begged for anything. "You can certainly try your best," he replied, invoking a deliberate dare in his voice."
Challenge accepted and it sure was fun to read! I can't wait to see what's next for this fun couple.
I was provided a copy of this book in exchange for an honest review.

Volume 3 of the Marriage Diaries was different from the previous two but still amazing! It starts with Dean fulfilling a fantasy Jillian told him about while skyping and ends with Jillian turning the tables on Dean by becoming the dominate partner in a way you wouldn't imagine. The first fantasy was a little much for me at first but once I realized that both characters were really enjoying it I was able to wrap my mind around the idea - no I'm not giving away the fantasy...you'll just have to read The Taking to find out what it is:) If you enjoy erotic romance then this is a must read or if you enjoy Janelle Denison aka Erika Wilde!! Can't wait for Vol 4 (which I didn't realize was coming...I thought 3 was the last one! So after reading this awesome short story I got an awesome surprise!!)
