Cara Bruce

Now that I’ve finished reading Best Bisexual Women’s Erotica, I realize what a complex concept bisexual erotica really is. I mean, any shoddy editor could throw together a bunch of mediocre threesome stories and market it as “bisexual,” but this wouldn’t really do people who identify as bi justice. Bisexual women aren’t just dykes who are slowly working their way out of the closet or greedy easy chicks, as society often chooses to label them. While it’s no easy task, Cara Bruce has done a pretty good job of capturing the stories from the broad spectrum of experience we could label “bisexual.”

One story that stands out is Hilary’s Swank on Billy the Kid by Lana Gail Taylor. This definitely isn’t the hottest piece of writing in the collection, but it’s a really cute story of a couple falling in love. They question each other’s history, sexuality and pop culture crushes as they fall in and out of life and bed. It’s sweet, funny and totally worth a read.

Because I’m reviewing smut, I should also mention my favorite dirty piece, Party of One by Elise Tanner. In short, this is the story of a one woman who gets a birthday surprise from her girlfriend neither will ever forget. It’s really fucking hot and I love erotica about committed couples that trust in their relationship enough to explore their individual desires.

While I honestly didn’t know what to expect, I was quite pleased with this collection. A lot of the books I’ve read seem to push the boundaries of sexuality and gender, which lessens the need for a book dedicated to bisexual stories exclusively. However, this was a refreshing look at smut and one that will please anyone who enjoys a sexy story.
