Lori’s Review:

I was given this book as an ARC for an honest review.

This is the second book in Cult of Beauty series.

After finishing book one  The Secret Life of A Supermodel. I was taken back at the main character Katie and her sexycapades.  It true erotic form this book was full of sex. Dirty, crude, almost unimaginable sexual relations with anyone and everyone, including her own stepsister.

So going into The Lotus I didn’t think there was any way to out do the sex in book 1.  Well it did not disappoint in that it was full of sex.

Girl on Girl. Check

S&m. Check

Threesomes.  Check

Coked out orgies. Check

Massages with happy endings. Check

Hookers. Check

Anal check

Oral. Check

The story picks up where book one ended.  In this book I feel Katie has finally become comfortable with herself and learns to let her self go more.  She still has some morals but is more carefree.  I found that The Lotus captured my attention better then The Secret Life of a Supermodel.  It was a fast paced steamy hot book and the plot got better and better as you got further and further into it.  If you read TSLOASM then you will be glad to know that Natasha, Caroline, Arnud, and even Emily make an apperance. Katie and Caroline continue there love hate relationship and even more of Caroline’s antics cause major hurdles for Katie.  By the end of the book was another shock kind of like in the first book but not quite in the same way. I am very curios to read the next book and find out what happens!

The Lotus, Book Two, Cult of Beauty Series

(I gave them movie ratings for guidance on how explicit each one is)

Excerpt 1 (R):

“After Natasha was gone, I left the men to lose themselves in their devices in the kitchen and went outside to the pool. After checking that they hadn’t followed me and that I had some privacy, I unzipped my skirt, pulled off my t-shirt and went for a swim au naturel. The setting sun had tinted the horizon a salmon color and the water was like a liquified impressionist painting of pink and aqua. There were a few squawking sea gulls swooping around in the warm summer breeze. It was both refreshing and voluptuous to slip into the pool with nothing on. The water felt like a caress on my skin, a caress of my entire being, soothing my anguish. The summer evening was gorgeous and idyllic, giving no indication that anyone had died and that tragedy had struck this house, this family. If my life were a movie, at this moment the director would have set the scene in a raging hurricane, with screaming winds and torrential rains to indicate that something terrible had happened and the world was akilter. Instead I was floating in a beautiful serene pool at a beach villa at sunset. I swam a few laps of the pool, pushing myself to exert energy and clear my head. When I stepped out of the pool, Arnaud came out of the kitchen with a towel. This reminded me of Daniel and how he used to bring me towels and French rosé by the pool.

“Here you go, Katie,” he said with his delicious French accent, his eyes sweeping across my nude body glistening with droplets of water lit up by the orange gold light of the evening. My nipples were puckered from the cool ocean breeze, and I saw his eyes focus on my chest for a second.

He said, “You certainly are one of the most beautiful women in the world, Katie. I’m sorry I can’t help looking at you.” I smiled and shrugged it off, saying, “Everybody does. That’s why I get paid the big bucks.” He chuckled and instead of just handing me the towel, he wrapped it around me, and rubbed my back with his hand. “Do you feel any better?” I shrugged. Don’t rush me, I need to mourn, I thought. I put my arms around him. “You make me feel better, Arnaud. Thank you for coming so quickly, and taking care of me… of us.” He wrapped his arms around me too and we stood there, holding each other in the dark by the pool, without saying anything. Thank God he had come. My towel slipped off me and pooled at my feet. I didn’t bother to pick it up.

I looked up at his face that was shrouded in shadow, but I could make out his intense, glistening eyes. I saw a compassionate warmth there, and an invitation. I kissed his lips softly. He didn’t resist and kissed me back. I felt a warmth stir in my core as he gazed into my eyes, and I was quite sure he felt a similar feeling—what the French call volupté—a sensual languor, which is a pre-cursor to full-blown lust. I couldn’t help thinking about what a magnificent lover he had been last time I saw him, and he was probably having similar thoughts as he held my naked body close. I pulled away from our embrace, and looking up at him shyly, said, “Shall we set you up in your room? You’re probably exhausted.” I picked up the towel and wrapped it around me to cover up. I needed to push away those thoughts and not tease him.”
