Tell Me More by Janet Mullany
"Tell me every dirty detail…"

Jo Hutchinson is obsessed with a man she's never seen—only heard. Her late–night calls from the office to the mysterious "Mr. D." grow increasingly intimate, until they finally become full–blown phone sex. Still, Jo doesn't dare meet him. Instead, she embarks on a series of sizzling sexual escapades with other guys, sharing every sweaty moment with Mr. D. afterward, a passion–by–proxy arrangement they both get off on. But even as she's charting brave new naughty worlds, Jo knows that it's all really for Mr. D. Every pleasure she experiences—eagerly, athletically, vocally—is to please him.

Immersed in fantasy, reality just slips away—even the chance at that elusive combination of love and lust. Her new tenant, Patrick, an Irish hunk in geek's clothing, is totally into her. And in her lucid moments, Jo knows she feels the same. Can she tear herself away from her kinky dreamworld long enough to appreciate what's right in front of her? Or has Mr. D. ruined her for real life?

RRAH's THOUGHTS AND PONDERINGS:

TELL ME MORE is a story of betrayal and one woman's reaction to her boyfriend's straying. Jo seems to be a smart woman, with a lot going for her, but the story quickly becomes a series of sexual encounters, leaving Jo less satisfied than she could be had she not embarked on the sexual solution to her initial issue.

Jo hosts a radio show, but when a mysterious caller gets her to flirt with him, things begin to spiral. They rapidly indulge in phone sex. Then, she decides to really let loose and practice some of the things she and her mysterious caller discuss.

I am not sure what to say about this book. The prose is great. As usual, Ms. Mullany writes well and creates vivid images with her words. I enjoyed that, and will gladly read more by this accomplished author. But honestly, this book wasn't my cup of tea. That doesn't mean it won't thrill other readers, just that it didn't sit well with me. I wanted more from the heroine, character-wise, than I got. But the writing? Excellent, as is this author's forte!
