Eastern Nights by Lise Gold

4.0

I enjoyed reading Eastern Nights. I liked how the majority of the book took place in Thailand. It was an interesting look at the life of women traveling for business. Both Felicia and Kate were working in Bangkok when they in a chance encounter at the bar which led to what was supposed to be a one-night stand. Their intense passion kept their affair from ending it at one night. This book has some of the steamiest sex scenes that I have ever read. My mom was visiting my house for her vacation and happened to pick up and read one of the sex scenes she was good and scandalized. I don’t think she will pick up my kindle without asking ever again.

Getting away from the sex. The setting of the book brought Thailand to life to me. It made it seem like such an interesting place filled with such a diverse culture. One of my favorite parts is when Felicia takes Kate to the Buddhist temple. Lise’s description of the temple was beautiful and brought the scene to life. I also enjoyed her depictions of some of the locals which brought out how Thailand is a very spiritual/magical place.
