Summary: Addicted - An Exciting Quick Read
Review: Addicted is a quick read not because there is no substance, but because once you start it you can't put it down. Addicted starts with the main character Zoe seeking help for her sexual addiction. You are taken on a journey back to Zoe's childhood and brought forward to where she is today. You get a chance to meet Zoe and her future husband as children and you follow them into Zoe's own private hell through dark sexual corridors and complex characters. She is smart, accomplished and totally middleclass. So why can't she control her sexual urges and needs that are leading her to destruction? This book grabs you from the very beginning to the end which is unexpected, violent and explosive. Through it all you want Zoe to win this battle. And she does.I highly recommend this book.Vannie

Summary: Really, really, really GOOD!
Review: ADDICTED captivates you from the very first sentence in the very first chapter all the way to the last word on the last page, right before the period and the end of the story.

ZANE has an incredibly humorous side, as this work of fiction begins, taking you back to the very begining of time when Zoe first meets Jason. You will travel in time through their adolescent years, through high school and on into their future. But beware.......the journey through those younger years will have you crying with laughter, so sit back and enjoy the ride.

As Zoe pulls all punches at getting Jason into her (literally), she finally marries the man of her dreams, yet she continues to have a void that needs filling. Zoe's addiction and decisions to satisfy them, sets her out on a course of uncontrollable behavior that reaks havoc with her psyche.

As Zoe starts to realize she's got to gain control of her destructive behavior, she finds out that she's not alone in the game of deception and secrecy.

Readers, if you want to ride on a rollercoaster that doesn't stop after you've had your turn, pick up this novel and let the fun begin.

Summary: It Gets No Hotter Than This
Review: Zoe, the main character of Addicted, is quite complicated but that's what makes the book so interesting. You think you have her and her life all figured out only to be surprised and shocked over and over again. Jason, her husband, is every woman's dream man. Maybe not in the beginning of the novel when he is dealing with his own issues, but by the end he becomes the type of men some women would cut off their right arm to be with. Zoe's choice in extramarital lovers proves a point. No matter how sick she was, she was attracting people even sicker. Addicted is a novel that will make you do some serious thinking about life in general. Zane is an author that will entertain you from the first page to the last. She tells a poignant tale and doesn't take 200 pages to get to the juicy part. The entire book is juicy.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: The Title Says It All !
Review: I was definitely hooked from the first page. I thought it was really cute how Jason and Zoe's relationship started and how it progressed. Childhood friends become Adult Soulmates. On that note, this book proves that you can never really judge a book by its cover. While everyone thought Zoe and Jason had the most perfect marriage and family, there were some big issues at hand. This biggest issue being Zoe's addiction to sex. She was in constant battle with herself to submit to her addition to sex and to fight to be true to her true love, Jason. Zoe could have easily been a character a person hated, but the author, managed to personify every feeling and chracteristic of Zoe. Zane managed to make the reader realize that Zoe was indeed in love with Jason and she was in it forever, but she just had a problem. Zoe managed to get herself into things that most people might find impossible. All in all you learn from your mistakes and hopefully a person can progress from that point on. I applauded Zoe from early on for being able to realize she had an "addiction", and later on sought help. Her steps may have been questionable but Zoe was able to get to the root of her problems. Both her and Jason manage to learn a lot about each other thoughout the course of events. The incidents in this book keep you reading, rooting, tossing and turning waiting for the next drama to occur and this is all due to the Zane incredible writing. Addicted is a powerful read and hope that anyone who reads it gets something out of it. Applause goes out to Zane and I await her next "adventure".

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Excellent
Review: A very interesting book that explores sexual addiction in a manner that is not degrading. Also shows that LOVE can conquer all!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: "Addictive"
Review: From page one this book had me hooked, just when you thought Zoe couldn't get any more outrageous she did. From the outside she seemed to have it all while on the inside she was just a scared little girl looking for intimacy and love with her only real love Jason. Jason's constant rejections seemed to force zoe further into being with other people. Zoe could have very easily been a character that you disliked but instead because of Zane's writing style you find yourself rooting for her and praying that she gets the help that she needs. You also feel her pain when she experiences a loss that she tried so very hard to prevent. This book was awesome!!!!! I cannot wait for Zane's next book.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: A Glimpse of Reality
Review: While I don't feel women go through sexual problems to the extreme of fatal attraction on a daily basis, I do feel that Zoe, the main character of Addicted, is as real as they come. She represents the dark side of everything a woman pretends not to be. Most women want to be thought of as perfect, innocent, and submissive. Not so with Zoe. She reminds me of quite a few women that I know personally who put up a collective front of being content with their intimate relationships when they are really miserable. Some of the ones I know cheat and pray they don't get caught just like Zoe. Others go through life playing the would've, should've, could've game regretting never having explored their true sexuality. Addicted is touching, sensual, romantic, thought-provoking and just downright thrilling. The end result is what happens when an author comes across a decent storyline and turns it into a classic simply through the power of her imagination. Believe me, this sister has some imagination. I just hope other readers can truly appreciate it as much as I do. I can't wait for her next book.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: STRICTLY ADDICTED!
Review: This book is hot! Zoe seems to have it all, her own business, a loving husband and 3 wonderful children. Is she happy though? Not with the sexual part of her marriage. With that said, Zoe begins to have affairs with 3 different partners, all the while still trying to make her husband Jason a willing sexual partner in more than just the traditional way. Zane takes us on a rollercoaster ride through Zoe and Jason's lives and this book has many twists and turns that will keep you guessing. This is the first book I have read by Zane, I am sure it will not be the last one. To find out the rest you will have to read the book for yourself. Zane, I wish you much success and blessings. Peace!

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Caught My Attention From Page ONE!
Review: Addicted is a story that grabbed me from the beginning and just never let go of me until the end. If you're looking for a little erotica mixed with an exciting story, this is definitely the book for you! I thought a few things in the book were a little "over the top" but I don't want to give examples because it would probably ruin the book. I thought that some of her lovers should have just MOVED ON and not gotten so "addicted" to Zoe but I'm sure there probably are some CRAZY people out there so I can't hold that against the author too much. I also personally thought that Jason was just a little too quick to forgive her for all she'd done but that's just MY opinion! :-) Overall, though, I found this book very fun and exciting to read and I must admit that I was SHOCKED at the ending!
