Despite a heart-breaking revelation minutes before her wedding, Crystal is set to marry Brent, her fiance. However, Brent makes her decision for her, as he leaves her at the altar due to a misunderstanding about her feelings for his best friend. But was it really a misunderstanding? Instead of going on a honeymoon with her husband, Brent, Crystal ends up going on the trip with the best man, Evan.

Brent's appearance at the honeymoon is only the start of the challenges to Crystal's emotional and sexual rollercoaster. The complications continue with the addition of Sarah...and Kade. Rather than a honeymoon to celebrate her dedication to monogamy, Crystal's experience becomes something more.

First of all, I don't think the back cover description does the work justice because it seems to be much more mundane than the book actually is. INSATIABLE is erotica, not a romantic beach book or mild bodice ripper solely about a woman trying to decide between two men. There's absolutely nothing wrong with erotica, but I could see someone picking the book off of the shelf, reading the back, and assuming it is less red-hot than it is. That said, Carew does her usual adept job creating a flow from scene to scene to add as much erotic complexity as possible.

I will, however, admit that I didn't care for the female protagonist because I didn't find her or her reactions that believable, nor did I find the conflict or the plot compelling. However, plot is not necessarily why one might purchase the work, and INSATIABLE is far and away better than many of the e-books that attempt to cover similar situations but do so poorly. Carew's writing ability and her editor's prowess make sure INSATIABLE is well developed and virtually error-free, a joy in this age of self-publishing and dismal erotica.
