LUSTFUL CRAVINGS is an interesting concept for a series but the erotic interludes didn't allow for plot or world development.  The instant mate trope is used here which is wearing thin on me but it will be fine for readers looking only for the sensual.Layla is the first of her seven sisters to find her mate, Madden.  The two have explosive sexual compatibility but they'll have to fight their race's enemies to stay alive.I like the concept of seven sisters who come into their magical powers when they find their mates.  I'm a sucker for well-imagined premises, which this one was.  But the mate trope used in paranormal romance to bring couples together is wearing thin for me.  Layla initially has concerns about this too but quickly capitulates. The emotional intimacy is missing here which makes the sex a bit mechanical, in my opinion.  This is primarily an erotic romance so readers looking for lots of bedroom antics will enjoy this short novella but I wanted more plot, character development and world building.LUSTFUL CRAVINGS is sexy enough that some readers will enjoy it but others may be like me and want a bit more than all the sex.Reviewed by J9for TheRomanceReviews.com
