Publisher's summary
This book delves deep into the decadent desires of bondage lovers. This collection of unrestrained erotica is filled with tales of couple-friendly kink that spill the secrets of men and women who love to be tied, teased, and pleased. These amorous adventurers find that a coil of rope or a pair of cuffs can unlock sensual fantasies of submission, and indulging in such captivating play sets their passion free. Novice fetishists and experienced players become inspired by these bold tales of bondage bliss from Penthouse Variations magazine.
Kink is coming out of the (well-equipped) closet and entering the mainstream thanks to pop culture and sites like wildly popular Fetlife, the "Facebook for fetishes" with millions of users, Kink.com, and even huge events like ComicCon and Wondercon having kink and BDSM workshops. Penthouse Magazine has served up kinky delights to over 360 million readers and goes all the way within this collection of commanding stories.

I am sure you already know how formulaic and boring most erotic short stories are. Ever wondered why? The reason is the people writing them don’t really know what it’s like to go down and dirty. They write from imagination and not from experience. I always say – experience speaks louder than words spun merely out of one’s imagination. You’ll realize the truth of this statement as I take you along on an orgasmic ride with these short stories.

Living in a year around Christmas town has its drawbacks. The caroling, the decorations, the insanely cheery spirit, it never disappears. It's why I like to hibernate away in my cave - I mean housekeeping a healthy distance from the holly jolly spirits. And all was going according to plan until my nemesis, Storee Taylor, moved in next door to care for her Aunt Cindy. Without blinking, she turned my simple world into a real nightmare-before-Christmas, especially when she decided to enter the town Christmas Kringle contest - which she was determined to win.

Obituary writer Nadine Barbault doesn’t mind being called “Lady Death”. It suits the ice queen persona she’s cultivated to survive the fast-paced Toronto Herald. So when Nadine learns that famous (and reclusive) author Dot Voline has died, she doesn’t hesitate to run the obituary…only to discover that Dot is very much alive. Nadine’s screw-up has brought Wesley Chen of the rival Spear no end of joy—she’s been a thorn in his extremely ambitious side for years. But the renewed interest in Dot also surfaced chatter about a mysterious past scandal.

Story
After watching my mother succumb to a mysterious illness, I promised myself two things. I'd find the cure for what ravaged her and leave the godforsaken city where she abandoned me. Four years later, I received an acceptance letter from Dracadia University, one of the oldest most prestigious schools in the country. Nestled on a secluded island off the coast of Maine, it's rumored to be haunted by the souls of the mental patients exiled there centuries before, those whose bones are said to make up the island's white sandy shores. And restless ghosts aren't even its most daunting peculiarity.

A bundle of bondage stories tied with a bow!
What made the experience of listening to Penthouse Variations on Kink the most enjoyable?
The variety, there are 19 different stories and they cover all sorts of bondage situations, there's something for everyone.
Even the stories that fall outside your particular preferences are interesting and sexy to listen to.
What does Lia Langola bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?
The narration was amazing, not surprising Lia is always great!
The character voices are a highlight, each story seems to have it's own sound, I'm not sure how Lia manages this but it pushes the narration from great to first class!
If you were to make a film of this book, what would the tag line be?
No children allowed!!!
Any additional comments?
These stories are great for the experienced, the beginner and the curious. Each story is about 20 minutes long, so each gives just a taste of each situation/story, enough to tell you if it's something you'd like to try.

Any additional comments?
Lia did a phenomenal job narrating and performing the male character voices.

Kink Written Well- Great Variety of Fast Shorts!
As someone who is cautious about what I pick up to read when it comes to BDSM romance/erotica, I don't tend to try new to me authors out of the blue. I think this is the first time I've set out with a book based of this genre because I enjoyed the last book by the narrator, Lia Langola. Still, I was cautious, but in the end, I listened to the several short stories and was duly impressed by many.
Penthouse Variations on Kink is a short story collection written by several different writers only one of which I might have experienced before. Each story focused on a different set up from meet cute to long time married pair, different sexual preferences in the Dom(mes)/submissives, different experiences new to BDSM to old hat, and different heat levels from light bondage to heavier pain.
Most of the authors set up their tales so the reader could easily engage and connect with his or her characters and plot though they didn't beat around the bush getting to the point. I liked this as I am one who needs an actual storyline to appreciate the erotic element. I also liked it because I also need to feel that BDSM is treated carefully between participants even if its one-time only encounter. I felt the authors understood the world well and appreciated the lifestyle they were portraying in their stories.
I took this one in bits over a period of time and it worked out great for that. Some forms of kink or relationship dynamics weren't my thing, but I could still appreciate the storytelling quality in each. I enjoyed some writing styles more than others, but all were at least moderately good.
As I said, the narrator was the reason I listened to this one. I really appreciate Lia Langola's style. She imbues just the right amount of emotion without overbalancing into cheesy pornstar voice. She voices genders and multiple characters, pacing, and tone well. I would definitely listen to more of her work.
All in all, I thought this was a well done anthology and is definitely best appreciated by erotica or BDSM romance fans who don't mind the short story format or want something quick now and then.

Short tantalizing tales
First I must thank Lia Langola and Penthouse Variations for this naughty, panty dropping, extremely sexy and erotic audible gift. I think I pretty much summed up what I just listened to!
Each tale is yummier than the last, some have a little bondage, bdsm, but nothing over the top, you may even get a little chuckle here and there. I enjoyed it from beginning to end. Big smiley face.
