Marq's thoughts:
I haven't read Chocolate Flava 1 and 2 so I didn't know what to expect. I knew that this book would be straight erotica with very little plot, zero romance and mucho sex. I was not disappointed (in that aspect).

Chocolate Flava 3 is a compilation of short stories by different authors. Some stories are sexy and hot (you might need a towel once you finish reading them) and others were borderline nasty and not sexy at all. Most of the short stories are told in 1st person POV which worked for most of the stories. But the ones that were kind of icky, I really wanted to be out of that person's head.

If you want just straight sex scene after sex scene with a little dialog thrown into the mix, then this is the book for you.

A lot of the stories did keep me entertained and some of the sex scenes were well-written which surprised me. I will admit I did have extremely low expectations when I started reading this book so some of the well written, sexier stories were a pleasant surprise. But I think this is my last and final time reading anything by or with Zane's name attached to it. Just not my cup of tea.
