Friends, strangers, high risk situations bring couples together for highly charged sexual encounters in elevators. Enjoy stories by Karma Jones, Tambra Kendall, Blythe Phillips, and Jane Leopold Quinn sure to arouse your imagination.

Goin’ Down 2 is a fun anthology filled with a variety of stories with one thing in common…sexual encounters in elevators.

In the first story, “The Erotic Touch” by Tambra Kendall, Kimber Layne fantasizes about her best friend and business partner Chris Hart. Their flirtation takes an unexpected turn as Chris sets out to seduce Kimber because he shares her attraction. And when Chris and Kimber get trapped in an elevator on their way to a business meeting, Chris decides to help Kimber take her mind off her fear of dark spaces in a very erotic way.

I am a fan of the friends-to-lovers plot and really enjoyed this story, but at times I felt it was a little rushed, especially toward the end. Still, it features strong characters and an interesting love story that more than makes up for the rushed feeling.

“At Your Service” by Blythe Phillips is a little more action-packed as Amber Gray finds herself trapped inside the bank during a robbery after a late night working. Luckily she isn’t alone–security guard, Brian King, a man who has secretly lusted after Amber, is there with her. As they hide from the bank robbers in the service elevator, the two give into the passion that smolders between them.

This was an interesting story that even provided us with a brief POV of the bank robbers, although that felt a little out of place. The sex between Amber and Brian, while scorching, also felt a bit out of place as I found it hard to believe that they would have sex while armed robbers were in the bank, but it is an erotic romance story and everyone reacts differently in times of stress. I did enjoy the relationship between Amber and Brian and would have loved to have seen more beyond this brief glimpse we get when the robbery bring them together.

The next story, “Elevator Encounters: Double Trouble” by Karma Jones, is full of twists that will probably surprise most readers. I know I was surprised. This fast-paced story features John Savage, a condom salesman, who gets more than he bargained for when he travels to Gina Pharmaceuticals to make his pitch. Things take an interesting and steamy turn when Gina asks for a demonstration of the product. Individuals cannot use the mediation to boost their viagra 100 mg libido. Although it can be said levitra properien that there is no permanent cure to it. The Cheap Kamagra medicines are not just drawn nearer by putting the order levitra cute-n-tiny.com patients in foundations additionally by applying some of these new types of treatment. Junk food, smoking, increased work pressure & no physical exercise has generic viagra cheap been a major topic of conversation. Shortly after this encounter, John finds himself back at work and stuck in an elevator having another steamy encounter with a stranger. John is in for a surprise in an ending that I didn’t see coming.

The story was filled with interesting twists, but I felt that the ending was a bit abrupt. And while the premise of the story definitely intrigued me, I would have loved to have seen more character development and perhaps a bit more of the involved parties as we don’t learn much about them. Despite this, the story showed promise and definitely kept my interest as I certainly looked forward to finding out what would happen next in this surprise-filled read.

“His, Hers, and His” by Jane Leopold Quinn is the final story in the anthology and perhaps my favorite. I loved everything about this story from the characters to the plotline.

Still reeling from a break-up, Gwen Bailey is surprised to find two handsome men looking for her newly-married boss. Brede Harker and Rory O’Brien are themselves surprised to learn that Gwen’s boss is married, because the three had plans to get together. Knowing that her boss met the pair on a site catering to women looking for “sugar daddies”, Gwen is not quite sure what to do when the pair invites her out to dinner with them instead. She decides to take a chance and soon the three find more than they were looking for as they grow more intimate.

We don’t really learn much about Brede and Rory other than the fact that Rory is Brede’s “apprentice” and they work together dating and pleasuring women, and I wish we did. I found their relationship with Gwen intriguing as things take an unexpected turn for the three. As for the elevator scene of this story, it is definitely a scorcher as well as a pivotal moment because it changes the dynamics of this budding relationship. I wish this had been a full-length story as I would have loved to have seen more of this delightful threesome.

Overall, Goin’ Down 2 features four very different and fun stories that come together to make an enjoyable read.

  3. A great review for the second book in the Goin’ Down Anthology. The eight authors who participated in this total project I know had a great time developing the stories for both Book One and for Book Two at Aspen Mountain Press. I’m sure there will be more great stories coming from these ladies who are all members of the Erotic Romance Workshop Yahoo Group.
