About this listen
These days, we could all use a little trip back in time, before COVID-19, before the internet, before cell phones, when life was simpler...at least in some ways.
This book was written in 1961, a very different time from today. It's what as known as a "bodice-breaker", or an “erotica-romantic novel”, but one far tamer than such books today. It has plenty of passion but is written in '50s style, where there is a lot of sex but it is not explicit, either in language or description.
As for the plot, here's some of what the book jacket says, in typical '60s over-the-top fashion: "Brad Smith’s business gave him special privileges, and he made the most of them. But where do you draw the line? At this peculiar hotel, guests arrived late, stayed even later, and paid a high price for unusual accommodations. And if he were man enough, a guest could meet Janice Westbrook. Brad Smith decided he would win Janice for himself. After all, he was a mattress salesman, with a perfect excuse to make himself cozy around the girl and the hotel. The only thing was, a twisted monster named Whitey was after Janice too. And pursuing Brad was a cute little town woman, Marcella, who figured that anything Janice could do, she could do better!”
