The Fetish Box, Part Two: What Escapes (The Fetish Box #2)By: Nicole CamdenFile Size: 887 KBPrint Length: 75 pagesPublisher: Pocket Star (March 4, 2013)The breathtaking second installment in the Fetish Box eBook series...open the box and see what escapes...Mary is surprised by the deep feelings that follow in the wake of her first sexual encounter, but fascination with her lover John doesn't dim her desire for the unapologetically lusty Irish bar-owner, Max. Feeding one hunger has unleashed other needs, and Mary wants to experience everything her new life has to offer.But Mary's dark desires aren't the only ones swirling in the depths of The Fetish Box, and violence erupts amid the passion. When one of the men is attacked and the people at The Box put in danger, Mary realizes that some desires are more dangerous than others.I was not tremendously impressed with the first book in the trilogy and the second has left as unimpressed as the first. The book starts off right where the first left off, first time sex is supposed to be special, it wasn't. Mary likes John a lot and decides to have sex with him but she also wants Max. There is potential for some erotic sex between the three of them and it never happens. The sex although hotter and more frequent than the first of the trilogy, seems purposeless. The characters are likeable but underdeveloped. There is a thread of a plot running through the book but it doesn't get a chance to bloom before the story is left hanging. The switching from first person to third person is growing in popularity but it something that needs to serve a purpose in the story for it to be successful and that doesn't happen. I would've been perfectly happy with the author choosing one point of view or the other.  I really do think it would've made a better impression on readers if the publisher had chosen to market and sell the trilogy as one story instead of three.  At this point I don't know if I should recommend this as a quick easy read or not.The Oracle (Maria Mercedes)All synopsis are published by the publishers via Amazon, Goodreads or Barnes & Noble.The Oracle Reviews: [...]  Reviews can be viewed on The Oracle Reviews, Good Reads & Amazon.The Oracle Reviews purchases some titles, while others are provided via Netgalley, or the authors themselves.
