Well, that wasn't what I was expecting. Generally, these freebie romances on Amazon are just all about the sex. And you'd think that something called "A Sexy Journey" would be chock full of it. But shockingly, the book actually spent time developing the main character, following her as she slowly comes out of her sheltered lifestyle, and gradually builds up to a sex scene at the end.It's just...I'm not used to so much character development in these sorts of books. Or any at all, really.Delilah's a woman from a small town, and after finding out that pretty much every woman her age has slept with her husband at some point, while she's been the perfect little wife, she just snaps. She grabs everything she owns, empties her bank account, and takes off.She meets an older woman on the bus to Chicago, who advises her to go out and live, especially since Delilah's never even kissed a man who wasn't her husband. Delilah takes the woman's words to heart, gets a complete makeover, and decides that she's going to have fun for once in her life.Just not too much fun.As she sees more of the world, Delilah starts to shed off the outdated prejudices she was raised to believe, and starts letting people and situations speak for themselves.I would also like to congratulate the book for only using the phrase "down there" once. This ebook was sexy and a bit funny. How would you feel if you saved yourself for your husband and he was the only man you had ever been with your entire life, and then you come home and find him in bed with the pastor's wife and in fact, the entire town! I think you'd probably lose it too. Though, I think I probably would've reacted far worse than Delilah did!! Anyway, she ends up leaving town and meeting friends along the way that help her discover a more fulfilling life! The only bad thing I can say about this book is it was over WAY too soon. It left me begging for more! Though I will warn those that can't handle adult words about body parts or adult acts, this isn't the book for ya sweetie.
What do You think about A Sexy Journey (2000)?
My least favorite of The Surrender Anthology. The h is extremely naive and really dumb.
