Enchanted: Erotic Bedtime Stories For Women

I was enchanted with this bunch of fairy tales. The stories were re-told brilliantly. I could not put it down. Nancy Madore incorporates an erotic fantasy into each fairy tale and you would never think for a minute the stories were not intended to be told this way. For example, in her "Beauty and the Beast" which was my favorite, Beauty falls in love with a half man, half beast and the story really heats up without a single dirty word. Madore also takes every opportunity to show compassion for her characters while never missing a chance to score a point for women. An example of this is "Mirror on the Wall" where she re-writes the story of Snow White's evil step mother with enormous empathy for what a woman goes through during the aging process. This book made me feel good in more ways than one. I immediately put in my order for her new book, "The Twelve Dancing Princesses" and I can't wait to see what she does with that story, which is one of my favorite fairy tales of all times.

An absolutely wonderful book. Along with Suzie Van Aartman's 100 Percent Erotica, (which was so sexually explicit that I had to change my underwear after reading it) must probably rank as two of the greatest books of erotica ever written.100 Percent Erotica Nancy Madore's book gives us another unusual and refreshingly different angle on erotica, fitting the stories within our favourite fairy stories is a brilliant idea and gives a whole new dimension to the genre. It works and it works very well. Plus, they are short stories, so you can take them for a few minutes at a time, or as long as you like, whenever the feeling arises. I've always favoured the short story format over the sometimes long winded novel, some of which seem to take ages before anyone gets into bed. So this book gets my five stars and very deservedly so. Highly recommended for getting you in the mood for love, maybe you could even read it to your partner to get them in the mood as well. Bedtime Erotica is well worth looking at also.

This is the best idea! Fairy tales for adults! When I read the stories I knew it was meant to be. This is a fun book to read. It was really done right and I agree with the author that it is for women. I had no trouble relating to each of the stories. They are very racy, but not in a derogatory way. This is a book that I will read again and again.

This is the first time I ever wanted to share an erotic book with my husband. The stories excited without being insulting, degrading, or embarrassing. Both of us loved these well written sexy fairy tales and we have read some of the stories over and over again. The author says she wrote it for women but my husband was excited by the stories too. We had so much fun reading them together. We loved every story and we can't wait for Madore's next book to be available.

After reading one story and then another and finding them not very erotic, I put the book away for a few days. I tried again on several occasions and found that none of the stories I read or skimmed put me "in the mood." So I put the book in the "return" pile (and unfortunately forgot to send it back). It was very disappointing.
I am a huge fan of the Best Women's Erotica series. My appreciation of The Claiming of Sleeping Beauty by Anne Rice, led me to believe that I might enjoy this book. I was really disappointed. I do not recommend this if you are a fan of true erotica.
