The Sweetest Kiss: Ravishing Vampire Erotica

"I was as entranced by the writing (my drug of choice) as some of the victims with their surreal and irresistible vamps. I am a new fan of the editor D.L. King and recommend this book to anyone who enjoys erotica."

The Sweetest Kiss: Ravishing Vampire Erotica

"D.L. King has done a good job of bringing together many different authors and writing styles, to bring us vampire stories that feel like the vampires of old, and not Twilight vampires. This collection is truly “sex with a bite."

The Art of Melinoe

"The bond of love and trust that grows between Ray and sunny was good to see, especially when Ray needs it so much. If you read the first book you will definitely want to read this follow up and see what adventures Ray has at the institute."

"Hands down the best anthology of vampire erotica I’ve read in nearly 20 years, The Sweetest Kiss: Ravishing Vampire Erotica is an absolutely stellar collection of fantastic stories that deliver everything one wants from this type of book: complex vampire societies, the passion of the hunt, the angst over immortal life, and tons and tons of hot sex."

Where the Girls Are: Urban Lesbian Erotica

'There is good variety with the stories in this anthology. Several are scorching hot and many are not really romantic but are single encounters between women. [. . .] This is another lesbian anthology from Cleis that I recommend for anyone looking for satisfying short stories about attraction, and sex, between women."

Yet Another Review of Where the Girls Are

"This compilation of short stories is satisfying on numerous levels—there is variety of length, fetish, pace, style, and even talent. We cruise through night clubs, BDSM initiations, taxis, butt plugs, whips, cityscapes, cocktails, and a rushed stint through the backstage of a fashion show. We’re even introduced to a ‘50s pinup lookalike in these pieces of “true tales and explicit fiction.”"

Still More Praise for Where the Girls Are!

"The back cover of Where the Girls Are proclaims that the book sets a higher standard for lesbian erotica. This must be one of the rare occasions where a product actually lives up to its hype. D.L. King has drafted an almost perfect roster of talent for her urban lesbian erotica anthology."

Where the Girls Are: Urban Lesbian Erotica

"Where the Girls Are is a smooth and delightful entertainment that is as slick and slippery as a three-card Monte pitch on 42nd St in the heyday of the real Times Square. This book is an anthology of urban legends created from the authors’ lesbian fantasies (or perhaps memories?) -- both lipstick and butch -- of far-flung cities. I should point out here that D. L. King, founder and publisher of Erotica Revealed, edited Where the Girls Are. Much as it pains me to suck up to authority, I am bound to say that it is very ably put together and presents us with an engaging mix of settings and tastes."

"Like the Best Lesbian Erotica series from Cleis Press, this book is a must-buy for fans of lesbian erotica."

Broadly Bound

"Broadly Bound, as an anthology of BDSM GLBTQ erotica, is surprising in a number of ways. The writing is of high quality across the board. While there are some stories that are more captivating than others, it can’t be denied that Beth Wylde, Syd McGinley, D.L. King, Kathleen Bradean, and Cassandra Gold all have a gift. Their characters seem to come alive in the first page of each of their stories and by the end of the book you feel like a voyeur who was doing some live-action peeping."

Best Lesbian Erotica 08

"The anthology finishes strongly with work by several well-established erotica talents. Rachel Kramer Bussel’s “Domme Games” delivers the immediacy, snappy pacing and hot—or shall I say “highly effective”?—dialogue, we’ve come to expect from her stories. D.L. King’s “A New York Story” seems as first to be an entertaining tale of a woman who prefers ghostly lovers over the flesh-and-blood variety—with plenty of New York real estate lore and jokes to make you smile. However, the unspoken tragedy at its climax showed me yet again that most of the stories in this book merit the attention we give a “literary” work. King’s story is, in the end, not just a sizzling paranormal romance, but an allegory. The truth is we often need a catastrophic shift in the “normal” to see our relationships for what they really are."

The Melinoe Project

"...The Melinoe Project is DL King’s first full length
title. The author of many arousing short stories,
King exudes a formidable talent for teasing, torment
and titillation. In this all out extravaganza of
female domination and male submission King excels.
The tone of The Melinoe Project is tempered slightly
by the flavour of romance, but it’s a romance on the
strictest of terms and with an edge that’s as hard and
cutting as surgical steel..."

“...Those who know me will be well aware that I enjoy anthologies, especially when the pages are filled with writers who have proven track records. Michelle Houston "Sensual Bonds," Rachel Kramer Bussel "Spike," and D L King "Subway Story," are all veterans of the genre and provide their usual fare of quality fiction that is designed to please on so many levels...”

“...Here are just a few of the compelling stories that you will find in this anthology. Nicholas hurries home to wake his wife. He knows she longs to feel his domination. As Laura lies trapped in a trunk, she vows that she will do whatever it takes to live, even if it means submitting to Mike’s desires.
