I have such a problem... I love Virginia Wade's story ideas, and so I buy them, but I often don't like them.  I think, reading this one, I've finally figured out why.  It's not that sex is thrown away in place of plot - although sometimes it is a little - its that the erotic scenes themselves just don't seem to be that erotic.  They're graphic, certainly.  The dialogue is hot.  But it's a lot of "insert this here, insert that here, pump a few times" without a whole lot of description about how it feels / sounds / smells and most of all, FEELS.  There's a TON of Alice getting it on in this book, but each of those scenes goes by quickly and without much detail.  It's an okay read, but what frustrates me is that I feel like it could have been SO MUCH BETTER if some time had been spent on creating the scene rather than just inserting sex into a story to make it erotica.  It's like she's sacrificing quality for quantity, both with the amount of erotica within the book and with the amount of books that she writes, churning them out at a high rate rather than taking the time to enhance the scenes.
