Summary: Sinful Seduction
Review: I can only give it three stars. I is not erotica. Just a bunch of rapes. The ending is surprising though. And after all it is Victorian so the sex is not modern. Probably close to the truth in those times. Especially since young poor women did not have much choice or much life.

Summary: An intense account of escape from a Victorian slum
Review: Maggie, a very young sixteen year old living in the most squalid slums of Vitorian England is whisked away by her alcoholic mother to protect her from her brutal sadistic stepfather. Maggie, like her mother before her is brought to work as a maid's assitant in a wealthy home until she is first willingly seduced by the son of the owner and then raped by the wealthy owner. The problem of course that Maggie had was that even though she never seemd to give in to the continuous rapes by different disgusting men around her, once the rape began she felt betrayed by her own body that responded favourably to the male 'attentions'. This book may not suit all readers tastes in that, with the exception of the handsome young son, Jermey, all the other men in the book were utterly loathsome, ugly, fat and disgusting trolls. That Maggie had to suffer thru the seduction and rapes by these beasts while she just tried to keep herself alive, in a world where no one would help her, made the book chilling to read. 'Sinful Seductions' is an excellent book exquisitely written by an author that certainly did a considerable amoount of historical work to make it ring true to life.

Summary: Engrossing Reading
Review: Ms. Benedict displays a rare talent for weaving romance, historical setting and erotica into a highly literate tapestry with broad adult appeal. The meticulous research creates a vivid spring to life for well-drawn characters who draw the reader right into the story from beginning to end. It is hoped by this one that we will see much more from Kate Benedict!

Summary: Provocative stuff
Review: Pretty hot stuff if you like that kind of thing. Kind of a psuedo rape theme throughout the book.

Summary: A cut above the rest
Review: Sinful Seduction is far superior to any other erotic novel I've read. This one was written by a skilled author. The plot, pacing, and characterization are excellent. I've enjoyed all of Ms. Benedict's books. I hope she's hard at work on her next one.
