Reviewed by Cherie Fisher for Reader Views (4/07)

“Helle’ in Heels” is published on-line by Ellora’s Cave and falls into the Romantica® level of E-Rotic.  E-rotic is described by Ellora’s Cave as loves scenes that are explicit, leave nothing to the imagination, and are high in volume per the overall word count.  E-rated titles might contain material that some readers find objectionable – in other words, almost anything goes, sexually.    

Helle’ Hawthorne is the devil’s daughter.  She has spent eons running wild below the surface in hell.  Her strong spirit always wins over man and beast.  That is, every man or beast except her father, the Devil.  Wild and strong-willed like her, he has had it with Helle’s hot-headedness and has banished her from hell for eternity.  If she does not comply with his wishes, he has threatened terrible destruction will come to mankind.  As a half-human, Helle’s conscience will not allow for this to happen so she figures out a way to make it to the surface to become human.  Helle’s human side has also made her monogamous and to do what her father wants, she has to leave behind the love of her life – Menlikus. 

Helle’ miscalculates where she will land and ends up on the Las Vegas Strip – Sin City, where all the adventures begins.  As she rises to the surface, she knows that she will need money to keep up with her expensive tastes – Kate Spade handbags, Ferragamo Shoes etc.  Even though she has lost most of her powers she still has enough magnetism to win the jackpot at the slots and uses her winnings to do what she and her minions do best – open a massage parlor.  Even as she gets involved with a new friend, Michael, she misses Menlikus and wonders if she will be able to get over never being able to be with him again. 

“Helle’in Heels” lives up to its title.  It is a well-written, fun story with an erotic twist.  The eroticism is daring and wild, but you will also definitely be left with a strong desire to go shopping.  Hmmmm…..I can feel that Rolex watch on my wrist or a beautiful Kate Spade purse on my shoulder.
