Tease by LaDawn Black is a refreshing look at classified ads with a cool look into the people who write these want ads to the folks who respond. Tease is full of quirky people who are not looking for love per se, but looking to get their freak on, by any means necessary. Can you place an ad and feel inhibited? Why, yes you can. Many people think that it is crazy to submit an ad requesting love, sex, some hot foreplay and nothing else. These are your average folks here, from the stay-at-home mom to the executive of his own firm. Everyone is getting their swerve on, so why shouldn’t you.
One of my favorite ads was Gloria’s looking for babes in the woods, is what her ad read. I have a picture of Gloria in my head and the description of her and how stable her home, marriage and children were made me wonder what was Gloria missing. Gloria had love, money, great kids and a wonderful home; but where did her husband fit in this equation? Alone and lonely was Miss Gloria, that was until she decided to take her life back and get her groove on.
The characters are colorful, the ads are outrageous, the responses are shocking and the laughter is contagious. I loved reading these ads and being able to relate to some of the people who were responding. I recommend Tease to readers of all genres.
