BLURB:
Together, sweet Delilah and wicked Isadora make the perfect woman. But the Perrault family fairy is a troublemaker and imbues diamonds upon one sister and toads upon the other. Now up is down and down is up in a world where no good deed goes unpunished. Leather, blindfolds, and handcuffs purge sweet of all reserve. A few misspoken words of lust gives wicked a whole new meaning.
Once upon a time, there were two sisters, one cursed and one blessed by fairy magic…
Bibbidee-bobbidi-boo, They’re naughty. How about you?
BOOK REVIEW:
Diamonds and Toads was a wickedly spicy quick read. This is a short book so I don’t want to give away too much. There are two parts to the book, the first half deals with a romance between Delilah and Chas; the second book is between Isadora and Sam. Delilah and Isadora are stepsisters; Chas and Sam have been friends forever so the stories are well intertwined. Delilah and Isadora have lived in the shadow (and fear) of their stepmom/mom, who’s just downright evil and selfish and only concerned about how high she can get on the social climbing ladder. In different scenarios Delilah and Isadora encounter a fairy; but who if either will be blessed? Will the sister’s dreams of finding Mr. Perfect and wealth come true? For such a short book, K.E. Saxon has packed a lot of details on the backgrounds of her characters and their stories. My favorite characters were Delilah and Sam. Who were both charming with a dash of sexy wickedness. The fairy scenes were very comical and I enjoyed her wit. In one scene she appeared as Endora from Bewitched which I found hilarious. I loved watching Bewitched while growing up. I felt the book really touched on peoples character and how to not judge a book by it’s cover so to speak. There’s a few steamy sex scenes and some have BDSM involved.
Blush factor is 5 out of 5. Not a book for anyone under age 18.

An animal (and bug) lover since before she could speak, she made pets of all kinds of critters when she was a kid growing up. Her mother even swears that she made a pet of a cockroach one time (but K.E. doesn’t believe her). She likes to write funny, sexy romances.
