Review by Publisher's Weekly Review
Debut author Allure launches her Meeting Men series of erotic romance collections with this sizzling and sensual medical-themed trio of stories. In the satisfying, summery "The Intern," smalltown doctor Lauren takes on a summer intern as a favor to a friend. She expects the intern to be a woman, but Courtney turns out to be a very sexy man, and intense chemistry and titillating teasing lead Court and Lauren to enjoy a series of sexual escapades. In "My Doctor, My Husband, and Me," Valerie, who's happily married with a rousing sex life, finds herself fancying her handsome podiatrist, and she decides to bring him home to meet her husband. Erotic touches, merry role-play, and ménage scenes singe the page. In "Seize the Doctor," reserved Nikki is shocked when her new physician turns out to be the guy she flirted with the night before. This story blends sweetness and romantic love with sensual satisfaction. Readers will cheer on these strong women as they take the initiative, seeking (and finding) both sexual satisfaction and emotional fulfillment. Agent: Louise Fury, Bent Agency.

Review by Library Journal Review
Allure's "Meeting Men" series and her writing career debut with a compilation of three "dirty doctor" stories. "The Intern" is a simmering tale of a lovelorn doctor and the sexy intern who shakes things up. Dr. Lauren Marks is finally recovering from the shocking collapse of her ten-year marriage. Back in her small hometown of Plum Banks, Lauren's practice is finally getting off the ground, and she is adjusting to the single life (though she misses the comfort a man in her bed can bring). When intern Court turns out to be not a woman but a very attractive, very available young man, Lauren can't help but give in to temptation. "My Doctor, My Husband, and Me" follows a similar trajectory, with middle-aged housewife Valerie finding the latest object of her affection donning a white lab coat. Dr. Luka Czerny is tall, dark, and unconventionally handsome, with an incredible bedside manner. Though happily married to husband Elliott for 19 years, Valerie finds herself fantasizing first about her surgeon, then about both men lavishing her with attention. Lucky for her, Luka and Elliott are extremely onboard with the idea, and the trio embark on a menage a trois that changes all of them for the better. The compilation ends on a younger note with "Seize the Doctor," a spicy tale of twentysomethings in New York City looking for fun. Twenty-six-year-old Nikki isn't seeking anything serious; she just broke up with her boyfriend of a year after finding out about his infidelity. Her friends take her out for a pick-me-up at Club X, where she meets "Adonis," also known as Hunter. Things end badly when the girls realize Hunter and his friends are making the rounds, scoring as many numbers as they can, but, still, Nikki feels like she missed a connection. To her shock and horror, she bumps into her club hottie again-at the OB/GYN, where he is meant to be conducting her exam. Even with their rocky start, Nikki decides this is one fish she won't let get away, and the two find out that they're extremely compatible, both in and out of the sheets. VERDICT Though the language is a bit dated, these quick, easy reads will appeal to anyone looking for a sexy book that they can put down and pick back up with no trouble. Fun, flirty characters abound, and there's plenty of kinky action. (c) Copyright 2015. Library Journals LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary of Media Source, Inc. No redistribution permitted.
