Publisher's summary

The steamy outtake that takes listeners even further into Laurell K. Hamilton's best-selling novel Kiss the Dead.

You'd think I'd get used to seeing such a beautiful man and knowing he was mine, but it never grew old, as if his beauty and the fact that he was mine, and I was his, would forever surprise me.

With a vampire like Jean Claude around, it's far too easy for Anita Blake to doubt her own appearance - and the hold it has on those who love her. But one hot tub and two incredibly sexy men - Jean Claude and Asher - will make her feel like the most lusted-after woman alive...or undead. Not bad for a mere human....

"Hamilton remains one of the most inventive and exciting writers in the paranormal field." (Charlaine Harris, number one New York Times best-selling author)

Deceptive Description

Very well written and narrated, as always, but there isn't anything in this novella that you need to know to understand the storyline of the other books. Just a threesome sex scene with Jean Claude and Asher. It's my hangup that it's not my jam.

doesn't add to the storyline

this is a good but short sex scene out take. you won't miss anything important, or even remotely relevant to the on going storyline.

Wait until it’s on sale.

Basically just one big sex scene. Good and well written, but only with a couple of dollars. Don’t waste a credit.

Beauty...

The name suits this perfectly, it ended far too soon yet was perfect for a quick story. An amazing mix of eroticism and fantasy woven together with just enough character details.

So so

Did not like the voices for Jean Claude or ashamed they sounded like wimpy boys.

Sexy

The first thing you need to know about this little short is the entire thing is a sex scene so if you’re just wanting a quick naughty scene read, this is the one for you. If you’re already a fan of Anita, then you know it is very rarely a one on one situation, so you get Jean-Claude and Asher

Enjoyable as alway

I have fallen in love with all the characters of Anita Blake. I enjoyed this out take but wasn’t expecting it to just be sex, I was thinking it would be more like when Nick was introduced. That said it was still very enjoyable and I always love listing to Kimberly Alexis’s narration.

good but

I get that this series was written a while ago but does Anita ever have anal like seriously. There is way to much sex and way to many men not to have even one scene. This short book would have been perfect to address this issue.
