"So you've got a thing for bodies encased in slippery-tight material, do you? Then I'm guessing that the stories in Rubber Sex will steam up your glasses and good.

Edited by Rachel Kramer Bussel, these nineteen stories feature everything from lust in latex to PVC perversion to vac-bed vixens. Even if you're not among the many who adore a little rubber in their sex, you'll still find plenty of hot reads featuring players of all orientations and genders."

Erotica Revealed Online--June 2008
"With stories by Shanna Germain, Alison Tyler, Radclyffe, Jean Roberta, Teresa Noelle Roberts, Rakelle Valencia, Rachel Kramer Bussel, Tenille Brown, and Thomas Roche, this anthology features many well-known erotica writers.

Rubber isn't just about the visual aspect. It's about taste, scent, and feel. Engaging that many senses, and sometimes overwhelming them, is it any wonder there are so many fans? It's also versatile. The stories in this anthology use everything from rubber bands to balloons to rubber underwear to a swimming cap to latex tape. People wear it, worship it, sniff it, shine it, lick it, and taste it. People feel sexy wearing it, or enjoy seeing others in rubber. Sometimes the wearer feels powerful, sometimes submissive, but always turned on. Give this anthology a chance, and you might be too."--Kathleen Bradean

Erotica Readers & Writers Association--July 2008
"Rubber fetish fans will enjoy the variety in this anthology, and those new to the genre will find a whole new world of kink. . Rubber Sex is certainly something worth rubber necking over."

Customer Reviews

A little something for every rubber fan
Whether you're simply curious, or a fan of all things rubber, Rachel Kramer Bussel's "Rubber Sex" has something to offer you. The stories collected with in, range from flirtatious and experimental, to dark and highly erotic.

The reader is thrown directly into the mix, from the very first story, "The Dress." An erotic and sensual adventure of a woman and her PVC dress, "The Dress" sets the tone for what this anthology has to offer. Stories to excite your imagination, and offer you and a partner, new ideas, or simply the ability to spice up your latex passion.

Stories such as Andrea Dale's, "Bathing Beauty", shows the true depth of this collection, offering an entirely different take on how and why people enjoy rubber. While Bussel's own, "Tight Squeeze", is every boy toys fantasy, wanting desperately to please and be pleased by their Mistress.

Throughout every story, rubber is the main theme, but don't let that sway you one way or the other. Whether you're a fan of rubber or simply curious about what it means, the stories collected in this anthology have a way of playing within that theme, while still offering something to every fan of erotica.

Opening Minds and Creating Lust
I love reading erotica. All types; kinky, straight, queer, all of it.

But I wasn't sure about reading about rubber, latex, and PVC. I'd never even considered how I felt about these materials (with the exception of this one fantasy I have about black latex gloves and being fisted). However, the cover was hot, and Rachel Krammer Bussel has never led me wrong with any of her anthologies, so I was excited to give it a go.

I'm one of those people that begins at the beginning, and we all know the first story influences how we feel about a book, and Kristina Wright's "The Dress" was really hot; regardless of how you feel about little black PVC dresses. My interest was caught, and I kept reading. Alison Tyler's "Rubber Necking" was well-written, and provided some beautiful mental imagery; an excellent story!

The story that really got me? "Slicker Than Slik," by Radclyffe. This story was so incredible, I was about ready to go out and buy a jar of latex pain, and shave off all of my body hair. I could completely imagine myself in this story; it is incredibly descriptive and I had to take a quick break from the book after reading it.

For those that are into more heavy kink, Thomas C. Roche's "Butterfly's Kiss" is decadent, delightful, and dark. I loved it.

This is one of the few anthologies I've read where I actually enjoyed a good 80% of the stories in it; outstanding. Plus, it's inspired me to go hunt down a latex dress of my own. Highly recommend -- even if you're not sure how you feel about Rubber Sex.

Sexy sweaty *Rubber Sex*
First off, let me just say that I didn't even know that rubber and rubber-sex erotica would be a turn-on. I'd never given rubber garments much thought. Leather, sure. Lace and gauzy nightdresses, etc., absolutely. But rubber? It sounded...smelly and industrial. This book changed my mind. (I can't see myself decked in a rubber catsuit -- yet, but the idea has been planted.)

From Rachel Kramer Bussel's introduction onward, I was intrigued. Alison Tyler's excellent "Rubber Necking" led me to Jessica Lennox's stellar and breath-taking "In the Middle." I also enjoyed Rachel's "Tight Squeeze" very much. RKB has a distinctive voice but such a broad range, I never tire of her work. Thomas S. Roche's "Butterfly's Kiss" was another favorite from the anthology. An unusual choice (for me) and an odd and compelling tale, I had to read it twice to make sure I "got it."

The stories were all rubber-centric, and if you are a rubber enthusiast, you will LOVE this book. Even if you are on the fence about rubber, this book might help sway your opinion. Any book that can make me consider donning rubberwear in NYC's 100-degree heat has got to be good!
