REVIEW FROM SENSUAL READS
"Heat is the name of the game in Mystery Man by Iona Blair, a collection of very short stories with enough intensity to ignite the pages. From mystery men to kinky sex to voyeurism, Iona Blair has included it all in the nine short stories. Some are just plain hot while others take you into the realm of quirkiness and outlandish. While these stories are light in plot they more than make up for with scorching sex. So if you are looking for something short, designed to heat up your libido, Mystery Man has your ticket."

REVIEW FROM WHIPPED CREAM
"Iona Blaire tackles a very controversial issue in this well written short story. She brings Jay Sutherland into places we would never imagine and throws a few curve balls in along the way. Gay men serving in combat is as old as the Crusades. It is only in our arrogance that we think that this is new phenomena and a product of a modern society.

With the return to his home, Jay Sutherland needs to confront so many issues, but realizes that his strength is in his relationship with his fellow soldier. Acceptance of his reality is the most difficult thing he will ever need to do but he shows the strength of character to do what he must.

This is an interesting take on a very talked about subject and is very much a worthwhile read. " (Rating: 4 Cherries)

REVIEW FROM THE ROMANCE STUDIO
"Lieutenant Jay Sutherland is stationed in Afghanistan, thousands of miles from his wife and their home and hopelessly attracted to his subordinate, Corporal Darren Morrison. Even after he gets his hands on Darren and his tour of duty ends, Jay can't stop thinking about him and can't go back to his normal life in Canada so easily. His life is further complicated by repercussions from an event which happens to his squad during his tour and which hits the headlines some time later.

This book followed an interesting premise for an m/m romance. The love affair which starts in Afghanistan felt somewhat rushed. One moment Jay and Darren are tangling without warning in a storage closet, the next they are declaring their love. In a way though, this was spot on because things have to be hurried along in such conditions where every minute has to count.

The portrait of Jay at home is a man on the edge of a breakdown, unable to come to terms with his desire for Darren. He drinks to excess, he sleeps with female prostitures and while at times I found him an unpleasant character, particularly in his treatment of women, it is nonetheless grittily realistic. As a juxtaposition to the heat of his scenes with Darren, his encounters with women were decidedly unerotic.

This novella was well written overall and had a satisfactory conclusion."

REVIEW FROM PAGAN AND THE PEN
"While serving in Afghanistan, Canadian Lieutenant Jay Sutherland discovers more than the usual secrets of surviving in the sun scorched war zone. Along with his more serious duties of keeping his men safe, he finds himself lusting after one of his subordinates, Corporal Darren Morrison. Battling himself over the realization that he is in lust and eventually love with another man, he sinks into a dangerous downhill spiral.

Darren Morrison has wanted a piece of his Lieutenant ever since he laid eyes on him lighting from an armored vehicle in the Afghan desert. When Jay saves his life after he and his squad is buried in a cave-in, he is excited and longing for his lover. Once home he reunites with Jay to find the man he loves spiraling out of control.

This story allows the reader to have a shocking and seemingly realistic glimpse into the life of a soldier who not only has to cope with war and adjust to coming home, but also the fact that he is secretly bisexual. The emotional turmoil of the lead character is almost more than a reader can take with a dry eye. Adding to that the very emotional and erotic love scenes between Jay and Darren are in stark contrast to the harsh encounters with his female partners.

There is nothing more rewarding than reading a story that allows the reader to feel the full spectrum of emotions. This is one of my top picks for its thought-provoking emotional rawness that make me pull for the hero."

REVIEW FROM NIGHT OWL
"I found that A Soldier’s story to be a very intriguing story full of the lust and mystery. It is a classic story of a solider coming home from a war zone and questioning every aspect of his life. Blair wrote this very well and it’s an easy read for an avid reader. You need to be open to all walks of life and not easily angered to enjoy this title. This story is very graphic and talks extensively about alternative life styles." (3 stars)

REVIEW FROM ROMANCE AT HEART

"Just reading Iona Blair's story makes one feel for the couple of characters and their inner struggles. The Wayward Wind by Iona Blair is available from Carnal Passions and is worth the reading time.

REVIEW FROM COFFEE TIME ROMANCE
"Camouflage Wife was entertaining, bold, and yet at times sad. Ms. Blair paints a picture of what life was like for two gay men during the 1950’s as they struggled to keep their sexuality a secret...The ending is quite a shocker and left me happy with the way it was all tied together."

Sextremely explicit and as naughty as can be! The Red Velvet Horse was a favourite in the brothel. Unspeakable acts––so depraved they were illegal––were performed on its back.
The discovery of an erotic manuscript, written by a nineteenth century English woman, catapults a very modern heroine into a maelstrom of sexual experimentation and forbidden love.

REVIEW FROM WHIPPED CREAM
4.5 CHERRIES: "Ms. Blair writes an exciting and interesting novella. If you want a sinfully steamy novella packed with a hint of kink, then The Red Velvet Horse is the novella for you." -- Tiger Lily, Whipped Cream Reviews

Susan is a kinky woman with an erotic secret, which both shocks and fascinates her lovers.

Nothing is too taboo for Susan. She's tried it all. Her unique physical attributes make this horny femme fatale, a sex partner extraordinaire. But everything isn't as erotically perfect as it seems. Someone close to Susan has hired thugs to kidnap her.

When she is stalked and attacked, she begins to depend more and more on a handsome security guard for protection.

The outcome of this liaison is more shocking than anything Susan's done in bed.

REVIEW FROM WHIPPED CREAM
"Iona Blair writes sexy short stories filled with passion. Her characters all have faults that the reader can identify with. Her scenes are rich with detail that make the reader feel like he or she is really there."
"If you want a saucy, sexy read, then Sins of Susan is the novella for you. I give this work 4 ½ cherries."

REVIEW FROM RRTEROTIC
"Iona Blair does a good job of grabbing the awareness of the reader right away with a very hot sexual liaison, but she goes even further with some unexpected suspense and mystery in SINS OF SUSAN."

REVIEW FROM JOYFULLY REVIEWED
"This wicked tale is a bubbling cauldron of sultry surprises. The author keeps the narrative fun and sophisticated with a subtle British dry undertone that made me smile. I truly liked Susan’s contrasts; she’s seductively mysterious at times and wantonly open and provocative at others. It made me glad to know that a ‘bad’ girl can get her HEA without being made an example or paying for her pleasure. Ms. Blair doesn’t let me down by succumbing to that ancient double standard of the wanton getting her nasty just desserts for being as openly sexual as her male counterpart. Now that’s what I call progress in women’s erotic romance."

It's a French term signifying the scent of a woman's arousal, the one thing Jaye wishes her lovers to remember about her. When she inherits property on Bell Island off the coast of Canada, Jaye wonders what waits for her there, and is not disappointed in her choice of suitors.

The legacy of a lost treasure is also hers to discover, though recovering the gold is costly...and controversial. Some locals say it exists, while others believe a search would be a folly, and do possible damage to the environment. Intrigued by the mystery, Jaye goes forward with a search, fueled by passion and determined to keep the ghosts of Bell Island at bay, particularly the one who waits outside her home.
PHAZE PUBLICATIONS

REVIEW FROM COFFEE TIME ROMANCE
"Ms Blair has written a sexually saturated story chronicling the exploits of a twenty-first century woman confronted with a two hundred year old risk for possible riches. Chris, Brad and Scott, along with the mysterious French Canadian steward, Guy, all enrich her life in various ways. Ms Blair has captured the capriciousness of grown folk in her characters sexual activities. The title it self shows the book is bound to be quite racy. I could not put it down." (Rating: 4 Cups)

REVIEW FROM FALLEN ANGELS
"There is quite a bit going on in this story from Jaye’s affairs with several of the men she has met to finding the treasure, a ghostly visitor. and a lot of history behind the island and its inhabitants. The title of the story comes from Jaye’s desire for the men in her life to remember her and uses her Cassolette, which is the scent of her arousal, so they won’t forget her easily. There is a lot of beautifully described background and scenery throughout this story that makes you feel like your right there on the island.

This story contains a lot of sexual encounters including a threesome and sex with a complete stranger that might offend some people."

REVIEW FROM NIGHT OWL ROMANCE
"This book grabs the reader’s attention from beginning to end with some very steamy sex scenes. There are several background characters that play a major role in helping us to understand this very believable story. As the story unfolds we begin to wonder if Jay can sustain his other relationships as he continues to obsess over Emma night and day. Ms. Blair has mastered the art of turning us on throughout the book, yet the story is so tantalizing, we yearn to figure out how it will all end for Jay. When is wanting something so badly just too much? This intensely raw and erotic story is one I’m sure you’ll enjoy." (Rating: 4 out of 5)

"5 out of 5! I was captivated from the very first page to the last page. Iona Blair’s a storyteller of great magnitude... This is the first time I have read anything by this author but it won’t be the last."

2009-11-07T17:21:00.000-08:00

Kink and taboo are taken to new heights in this riveting story of unbridled lust and its shocking consequences. Come visit the brothel, where uninhibited sex with a shocking difference is offered in a specially constructed scarlet room.

Muriel McBain is the picture of respectability. She is a deacon of the church and an affluent member of the community. No one guesses that beneath her cool, strictly controlled exterior; there rages a repressed passion, which she attempts to satisfy with unusual masturbation methods. When this frustrated, middle-aged spinster falls in love with a much younger man, the consequences threaten to destroy her.
TOTAL-E-BOUND

REVIEW FROM BOOK WENCHES
"So, did I enjoy Desire and Depravity? While this level of erotica is not my particular fancy, I have to admit that it tells a good story. I’m happy that I had the chance to meet Muriel and her beautiful dancer as well as the obnoxious Chuck, so even though the sexual high jinks were a little extreme for me, I’m glad I gave it a read."

REVIEW FROM NIGHT OWL
"A word of warning to readers, while this story does have the BDSM disclaimer, it has more of a fetish theme than a BDSM theme. If red bottoms and cougar stories are your thing, then I have a feeling you will definitely like this story. I did like the book and am going to look for more of Ms. Blair's titles to add to my library."

When Phaedra Wharton’s sister, Holly goes missing this small town veterinarian’s well ordered life slowly unravels. Since their parents passing some years ago, the two sisters became extremely close; never breaking daily contact, including keeping each other aware of their comings and goings. After several days of no contact, and never returning calls, Phaedra leaves for her sister’s apartment in Vancouver. There she finds no signs of break-in or any type of struggle; still her worse fears are not eased. When enlisting the help of Police Detective Curtis Roth, Phaedra gets more then she expected.

A delightful, well written short story, Ms. Blair thrills her readers with a simple mystery though overshadowed by the erotic intensity between her primary characters. Back home, Phaedra and Baxter are lovers-of-convenience and it shows when he’s obviously detached towards Phaedra’s concern over her sister’s uncharacteristic silence. Still their sexual exploits deliciously carnal and quite memorable, also motive for Baxter’s apparent concern in loosing out on his daily sex, should Phaedra go looking for Holly. Quite a self-centered and definitely not a family man either.

In spite it if all, Detective Curtis Roth makes up for Baxter’s lack of compassion, taking the case of Holly’s disappearance seriously. Although from his experience, most cases such as this the victim turns up after enjoying a spontaneous vacation. As days pass Phaedra’s worry increases, as does her lustful yearning for the hunky detective.

When the pressure becomes too much, Phaedra forgoes feeling guilty about cheating on Baxter and worrying over her sister. She practically jumps the detective’s bones in the elevator. Now privately inside her sister’s apartment Curtis takes Phaedra against the wall, relieving the mounting sexual tension between them; as well as some stress surrounding Holly’s disappearance. Whoooooo! Obviously well built and sturdy characters who support a plausible suspenseful plot.

Rapture, published by Whispers Publishing, to this reader hails as a fantastic read!

But one of these liaisons goes terribly wrong. And as Meredith’s abductor drags her towards his van, in an isolated landscape, she struggles desperately to survive.

FROM WHISKEY CREEK PRESS

REVIEW FROM NIGHT OWL ROMANCE
"Although this book is short, it is a delightful tale of how three women's lives become entangled with intrigue and sex. Iona Blair's characters, Meredith, Abigail and Toni are endearing and surprisingly very sexual.

While at first you think you are reading a tale of a mid life crisis of sorts with a married couple, the plots twists and turns and takes you on a ride of mystery. Meredith is a real estate agent in her 40's who is in a marriage that has never been fulfilling, at least for her. She is awakening sexually and tries some unusual new things. Abigail is in her 80's and has a few secrets in her past, not all of them concerned with the dark mystery. She is not the old spinster the town thinks she is. Toni marches to her own drummer, whether it be fashion, work or sex.

There are a lot of sexual liaisons, some of them down right mind-boggling. Who would think that a 60-year-old English woman would be a paid sex submissive?

But this is not just a sex story. There is a mystery as well and the conclusion will surprise you I think. I would gladly recommend this well written story for all who want a quick read with a lot of plot and action."

REVIEW FROM DARK DIVAS
"What Are You Wearing? is the most unusual erotic romance book I've ever read.

This story includes some suspense, but the majority of the story revolves around explicit sexual encounters, fetish issues, spanking, lesbian acts and violence. What Are You Wearing? starts with a woman in her forties who's unhappy in her marriage, but weaves around multiple characters, making this a very intricate tale. You'll be completely engaged in what's happening and you won't expect the ending.

What Are You Wearing? is the first book I've ever read from Iona Blair and I think she's a unique author. What Are You Wearing? covers multiple sexual topics and anal sex."
