I'm looking for a book for my girlfriend. Here's the idea, I want to
find a sexy/erotic novel where the male lead character has the same
name as me ("Alexi" or "Lexi")

If you can't find anything, I'll settle for just a really good erotic
romance novel that's sure to get her excited.

thanks

I've already ordered it online at Amazon.ca (they seemed to have a
great price for the trilogy, as well as fast shipping)

http://www.amazon.ca/exec/obidos/ASIN/0452156610/702-0581702-5196042

thanks again for the recommendation! I'd be glad to consider this
question answered, since this trilogy more then exceeds my greatest
expectations!

Although I'd feel better knowing more of less the synopsis of what
happens in the three books (especially in regards to Prince Alexi).
Just so I'm prepared when she does read the books.

thanks!

If your girlfriend is not averse to a bit of kinkiness, "The Claiming
of Sleeping Beauty," by Anne Rice (writing under the pseudonym A.N.
Roquelaure) might be just the thing. This is a beautifully-written,
intensely sensual retelling of the "Sleeping Beauty" fairy tale. One
of the major male characters is Prince Alexi.

This would NOT be suitable for a woman whose fantasies are of the
"plain vanilla" type, however. There is a great deal of erotic male
dominance and female submission in this book.

As you would expect from the celebrated author Anne Rice, the literary
quality is superb. There are two sequels to "The Claiming of Sleeping
Beauty," so if your girlfriend likes it, there will be more treats in
store.

that is perfect!! Unbelievable! THANK YOU!!!!

I have read the "Beauty" trilogy, and I recommend it for anyone who is
not squeamish about B&D, S&M, and other sorts of non-mainstream
eroticism. This is very hot stuff, but of good quality, definitely not
porn.
