The Red Light by L. H. Roberts is an erotic romance set in #Amsterdam. Failed relationships lead Sabrina Taylor and Eva Barber to explore their erotic sides. Intense physical encounters, daring sensual challenges, and romantic fantasies made this book not suitable for young audiences.

Thanks for the review.

This is not my genre,by I am quite intrigued by everything else the book has to offer. I feel this might be considered as a poignant read on more than one aspects. Thanks for the honest review, I am glad I read it before dismissing the book.

I am not a fan of graphic adult scenes. Sounds like this one's entertaining though. Congrats on the wonderful review.

Bravo! That was an explicit review. I don't joke with romance cum erotic novels, they rank the first in my fan genres. 'The Red Light' sounds like a funny name for a novel with such contents, still wondering the relationship between the two. I love the character of Eva with her sarcastic humors. I look forward to reading this book, the wonderful review is quite catchy and alluring.

Sounds like an excellent romance novel with very well developed female lead characters. Romance is one of my favorite genres, and I can't wait to read this.

Oh this sounds like fun and also not my thing. I wish I could like it because what I did read was very funny and sharp, but I'm just not into it.

I don't think this urban erotica is something I would enjoy reading. The sample felt too long and boring. Sabrina and Eva keep repeating the same ideas about going to Amsterdam and making their sexual fantasies come true. The only thing I might like would be the description of the city. :) Thanks for your review, though.

Thanks for choosing to go out of your comfort zone and review this book. I’m not into “women’s fiction” or romance so I reckon I won’t be reading this one.

I love a book with sensual spices and the witty, sarcastic sense of humour Eva possesses pulls me in. I'd love to see how her friendship with Sabrina blossoms after they both get heartbroken. Thanks for the scintillating review.

I do not like extreme romance. So, I hope this book goes beyond just romance. I like books with strong female characters.
Congrats to the author on #BOTD.

Character development seems to be on point here and the witty humour engrained in the dialogues makes it a great read for me. I'll check this out. Thank you so much for this detailed review.

Good review. This is filled with repertoire of expressions needed for writing reviews. I'm happy you've stressed that the book is not suitable for people under the ages of 18.

This book certainly sounds interesting, especially since it transcends the boundaries of typical erotic fiction. I also find the setting, Amsterdam, oddly appropriate given their notorious--well, Red Light District. I'm not looking for a book like this right now, but I'll keep it on my "to read" list. Thank you for the helpful review.
