- "OK, let's take this transcontinental lesbian sex romp premise and make it ... lifeless. Oh, and make the roads look totally implausible and ignore all rules of scale and pretend depth perception isn't a thing ... oh yeah ... that's good"
- There is no shoulder to this road. They are standing in the road. Next to the world's tiniest mesa and cacti.
- Those look less like sexy poses and more like attempts to set a Guinness world record for balancing oddly
- Zan Collins. When you want a totally plausible namelike name under which to publish your crappiest fiction: Zan Collins.
- I don't think you have to worry about "minors" going anywhere near this eyesore
- That pink top is actually very cute.
- I can't stop laughing at the full-stop after "Unwary." Sure, it's D-grade sleaze fiction, but we're not animals—punctuate properly!
- "I am not a tramp, she kept reassuring herself" is one of the greatest lines of cover copy I've ever seen.
- Too many words. Words that do nothing but amass into a meaningless mush. Has there ever been a less climactic climax than this one?

"Your eyes are agleam," Meg whispered at last.I laughed so hard at 'agleam' ... crossword people will understand. But I'll give you more, because there is more to give:
[W]hen they stripped down, Marianne noticed Meg's pointed breasts. The nipples were taut, swollen.Ladies, don't you hate it when your 'rosettes' lie? Or when people call your nipples 'rosettes'? I mean, really...
She never questioned Meg as to what kind of evening she had enjoyed. But if Meg's rosettes were honest, Marianne was quite sure that she had told the young soldier goodbye in her own womanly way.

Looks like a rough patch of road to be hustlin' on.
“Good stuff” on the back cover? C’mon, make ‘em work for it.
