Not sure what possessed me to request this. I am not a lover of short stories, I always find myself underwhelmed and this book sadly did not change that.

This is not a story but yet multiple novellas. They are super spicy. If your looking dissipating not too deep with lots of spice this is the book for you

This was more of a collection of short stories that are focused on the spicy and smut side of things without the plot and character development.

A sweet and spicy little anthology of short sapphic stories all involving a kinky masquerade ball hosted by Elizabeth Hathaway by three different authors. All three are cute and smutty stories with fun ass moderately kinky sex scenes and variously interesting characters (Max and Dee and Lauren to some level are the only ones that kind of stuck out to me). Tho as an NPC, Ruby sounded hella hot and I super wished she got a story NGL.
But nevertheless it was exactly what I needed right now. My personal favorite was the second one with Max and Dee, coz my guilty pleasure is the miscommunication trope, plus I am always a sucker for fat characters getting all the love and intimacy.

This book was so fun to read, three different couples enjoying and finding out about themselves during one party. The masquerade party allowed the characters to explore their desires in a safe and supportive setting. As the couples move through the mansion there are different rooms with movies, entertainment, props and more. While the couples are exploring and indulging in their wild side, it is safe and caring.

very well written! i devoured this book, my only wish is that it were longer!! thank you netgalley and bold strokes books for the ARC

What can I say other than wow. I was not expecting such a spicy book but I loved every bit of it. Each story of love and finding one’s self was amazing and the spice made it even better.

Sapphic erotic novella with three stories centered around the same night and location. This steamy book was a good escape in letting go. Recommend for those that like short stories, tied up steam and a few hot peppers. 🌶️

I love a short story in-between larger books or when I am in a reading slump and these did not disappoint.

Fun shorts reads. Very steamy.
Certain parts of the book was better wrote than others (some was more of a 3.5 overall).

I need a story based on Elizabeth. She is amazing and would love to find out more about her story.

If you’re looking for an easy smutty saucy read with more than one story in one, this is for you.

*I was given a copy of this book from NetGalley for my honest opinion of this book*

This was a collection of 3 short erotic stories all based around Decadence, a Masquerade Ball in Las Vegas.

I don't read a great deal of short stories but this was good. Lots of steam, decent plot and I didn't have to concentrate too much.

Anymore would run the risk of spoilers.

I found this book to be insightful and perspective on a collection of short stories set at the Decadence masquerade party. Even though I am not typically a fan of short stories, I found these three stories to be worthwhile. The unique and intriguing setting of the Decadence party, adds an element of allure to the narratives and makes the stories most enjoyable.

I enjoyed the interplay of characters and how they met and interacted during the event. The fact that the last story featured a special character from the other two stories indicates a well-constructed narrative that ties the stories together. Along with some steamy scenes the stories effectively create an atmosphere of sensuality that left me wanting more.

Thanks to the publisher for providing me with a book for my honest review

This was a steamy story, very quick read. Each story leads a bit into the next which kept it interesting from one to the next. If you're looking for a shortish, super steamy read this is a good one.

I just really couldn't get into this book. It started out feeling really scattered. made me feel like I was randomly jumping between books.

Ok wow! Talk about spice. Oh boy! If you like a lot of spice this is for you. I’m not typically a short story kinda person and didn’t even realize it was that until reading but I they were pretty good.

Decadence definitely had plenty of steam and heat in the short stories, but not much “story” in the stories. I wanted to like this book more than I did. Thank you to NetGalley and Bold Strokes Book Inc for the access to the book.

Thank you NetGalley and the publisher for allowing me to read this book!

I tend to stray away from "Short Story" books, in my experience they tend to be completely underwhelming, BUT I saw this description and just had to take a change..
AND BOY WAS I GLAD I DID.

For one thing , MASQUERADE BALL, heck yes!
and also the spicy and sexy scenes... oh man did i blush!
I would say the spicy level was at a 8/10 for me personally.

LOVED this!!

Wow this was sexy and steamy.

I would say maybe don't read this at your local coffee shop as you might go all shades of red and possible chew off your lip.

All short stories were great and I did find myself a few times after I read it recapping what I read.

Cover is sexy just like the book

Thank you Netgalley and the authors for an arc copy of the book for an honest review.

Great anthology. Loved all three stories and each author made sure we got a lot of spice with the romance. I actually like these authors and tend to read whatever each has written. Even though Renee' Roman writes under the pseudonym of Piper James she's still an author I would read on the regular. I would definitely recommend this book to my friends and I look forward to what's next from these authors.

3 separate spicy stories, each slightly different and all actually quite enjoyable. I took a risk with this one as I am not usually the biggest fan of smut/heavily spicy books but this was actually pretty good!
