I really liked this book. It is the first in a series The adventures in New Pompeii. I plan to buy the next in the series and look at more books by the author.First of all the story itself is very well written as a scifi romance/erotica.Felicia, high priestess of Venus, in Pompeii on Earth wakes up in a space ship. She is told the god Vulcan was very angry with her people and destroyed her city but that agents of Venus were sent to save her people. She is psychic and knows right away that the story isnt true. The different levels and story lines in this story make it a great read. I loved the sexual tension and chemistry involved in all of the sex scenes. And they were steamy!But even past that I was very interested in the plan of what would happen once they were transported to the new planet. I think it is a fantastic premise.There are some rape and abuse elements in the book but I didnt feel like they were glorified, it was more specific to the situation.I read that someone didnt like the book because "I really wish they would stop making "strong" heroines, who are actually just waiting to Submit to some dude, to make their lives whole." That made me laugh. Yes there is a character who is dominate the bedroom but I thought it was very well done and sexy. There is also a sweet, soft lover in this story. I look forward to reading more about this new world and I recommend this book to anyone who likes romance, sci fi, and erotica.Content Warning: This book contains highly erotic graphic sex scenes,graphic language and sexually aggressive men, multiple partner action with minor characters, and hints at homosexual relationships.
