This collection from award-winning erotic writer Shanna Germain features six sensual tales of fantasy. The book opens with "Skin Deep," a dark, dangerous fairy tale of love and lust that was a finalist for the John Preston Short Fiction Award. Other stories include a sultry song of vampiric lesbian desire; a twisted tale of a time-traveling lover; a young man who finds true desire not in his boyfriend but in something completely unexpected; and more. Also features a bonus "Behind the Stories" section from the author. Known for creating sensual, literary stories that arouse both body and mind, Shanna Germain takes you on a lush, erotic and wild ride with the stories in "Beneath Sea and Sky." “The most exquisite and disturbing tale in the collection is Shanna Germain’s “Skin Deep”, a retelling of Beauty and the Beast. In this version, Belle is as gorgeous as required but is also a cruel sadist who delights in torturing the gentle, refined Beast. Despite himself, the Beast hungers for her torments, although she repeatedly taunts him, threatening to leave him to the nice young girl who will eventually fall into his clutches and turn him into a pretty, bland, boring Prince.” ~Lisabet Sarai, Erotica Readers and Writers Association.
