About this listen

Botanist Sebastian Royale discovers a hybrid flower in an undisturbed meadow in the Amazon Rainforest and soon notices the unusual reactions it elicits in those exposed to it. After conducting a wide variety of experiments and studies on the pollen spores of this ultra-exotic flower, he makes a discovery that will soon turn the perfume industry on its head.

While his discovery marks an incredible scientific breakthrough in botanical studies, it threatens to make every other traditional fragrance obsolete for the highly competitive international perfume industry. In a market producing more than $60 billion in annual sales revenue, corporate espionage is a constant threat, making crucial clinical testing exceedingly difficult to keep confidential.

To keep his proprietary formula away from prying eyes, Sebastian invites ten seemingly random individuals to an undisclosed location where their behavioral responses will be closely monitored for five days while they are exposed to the exotic spores. For them, it’s an exceptionally well-compensated vacation at a remote mansion. However, when the effects of the pollen spores begin to manifest, things quickly escalate to reveal previously unknown commonalities among the assembled guests, one of whom may be a professional assassin.

Devoid of their phones, computers, or other means of communication with the outside world, ten total strangers will deal with aspects of their personalities they all assumed were well-hidden, yet all will be revealed at Sebastian’s party.

Passionately Intriguing

Amazingly beautiful and erotic this audio makes you feel like your really there between the story being the most unusual you will ever listen to. The awesome performance of Edie Lind's narration brings out the feeling of enjoying their sensual acts of need for their partner right into your bedroom. An experient of the effects of aphrodisiacs on human nature. This book will awaken your desires and leaving you wanting more. I cannot recommend this audiobook high enough.

Loved it

I started this book with the mindset of listening for at least 2 days. I completed it in a evening because it was so enjoyable.

Now I want to become a perfumer. Sebastian had the goal of evoking deep, sensual, or even erotic reactions through fragrance is an art that merges science, creativity, and psychology. He did all of that and more.

The journey was absolutely amazing.

Hawt!

Riano has written an erotic story that melted my earbuds. lol. The couples and an extra female went up into the mountains to a retreat to conduct an experiment. It was something to watch play out! The narrator did an amazing job with the characters. It kept me entertained.

A Lesson in Eros

I started this book with some trepidation. I love this author and hoped this wouldn't ruin it. To the contrary, I am now convinced there is nothing beyond McFarland's wheelhouse. He masterfully combined a compelling and moving story with a level of artistic sensuality I would never have imagined possible. The narrator, Edie Lind, is incredible, bringing the emotions in each different scene clearly to life. I don't smoke but needed a cigarette following the beautifully crafted intimate scenes. I rarely expect such a wide range of emotional engagement in an "erotic" novel, but leave it to Riano McFarland to make the impossible seem possible. Great book all around, well-deserving of 5 stars!

Fiery Chemistry and Flawless Narration Combined

This story was pure fire from start to finish! The concept was unique and totally captivating, with characters so likable and dynamic that I couldn’t help but root for them the entire way. The character-building was spot-on, keeping me hooked on their every move. And the spice? Let me tell you—absolutely scorching, sizzling, and oh so delicious! The narrator knocked it out of the park, bringing every moment to life with an intensity that made the whole experience burn even brighter.

Steamy!

Wow! I approached this book with trepidation. Even though I was assured it was sensual, I was a little leery that it would be over the top trashy. It was over the top, but, oh, in such a good way. The sexual tension between the invitees was palpable, and it almost feels like you're a voyeur in the room or the bath house or the library with them. Edie Lind did a remarkable job in her narration.

I have read a lot of books over the years, but Riano McFarland stands out with his ability to write great books in different genres, from young adult fantasy to westerns to science fiction to the supernatural to animal stories to erotica. Nobody is going to typecast this author.

I was going to say I received this book for free in exchange for an honest review, but that's not true. Mr. McFarland has been incredibly generous in offering his books free to review, and I've taken advantage of those offers many times. I've decided to start using my credits to buy his books instead. I want him to be financially successful in his writing endeavors so he continues to be one of my favorite authors. Can't wait to see what comes next.
