REVIEW: Shemale Lesbian Gangbang (Darla) by Crystal Veeyant

Over the past few months, Crystal Veeyant has quickly become one of my favourite erotica authors. She has such a sense of style, one that hooks me every time. It is not just her way with words, but the 'genuine' feeling I get from her stories - even when she is diverging into the extremes of fantasy, it still feels as if she has actually lived the story.

Shemale Lesbian Gangbang - Darla is definitely the most provocative of her titles (and covers, for that matter), but it is no less genuine . . . or enjoyable. The story itself is a simple one. Karen, Lucy and Trixie are three stunning transsexuals, out and proud about their gender nonconformity, who are looking to make it big on the LA porn scene. Their motivation is a big part of what I love about Crystal - these girls are not innocent or naive, they are not being forced or blackmailed, and they are not driven to desperation by a habit or vice. Instead, they are just a happily well-adjusted gang that really (really!) loves sex, and who see absolutely no reason why they should not be famous for it.

Of course, first they have to get to LA, which is the set-up for this first chapter in the story. It is an old-fashioned road-trip, complete with a female stowaway, a pair of hunky cops, and some amateur footage of a roadside gangbang to help catapult their careers. What sets the ladies apart from their cinematic competition is exactly what sets Crystal apart from their literary competition - that sense of being genuine. They honestly love what they do, and that enjoyment comes through in very scene. Yes, they are conscious of playing to the camera (just like Crystal is conscious of playing to the reader), but that is always secondary to their own enjoyment.

That is not to say, of course, that it is all about the sex. These women are genuine characters, with strengths and flaws, and there is even a romantic triangle to add some colour. Crystal has a definite flair for girl-talk, and their often hilarious conversations really serve to establish the story. You cannot help but like them, and you cannot avoid wanting to see them succeed.

Please, do not let the title or the cover stop you from giving this a read. Crystal's stories are always well-worth the price of admission, a genuine cut above the usual Kindle erotica. The woman knows how to write - and excite!
