In a place that caters to whatever the heart desires, anything is possible…When I imagined the vacation of a lifetime, it didn’t include a nude fetish resort. I foolishly assumed my bestie Jess and I would at least be wearing bikinis. This place is a hedonistic paradise, but I’m pretty sure I just walked through the Gates of Hell. At twenty-three, I’m still a virgin and an anomaly in a place … anomaly in a place like this. My innocence makes me vulnerable to all manner of pervs.
Mason is my host for the week, my protector. He’s basically a prostitute and the world’s biggest tease. He’s determined to give me an epic romance experience but refuses to give me the one thing I want.

It’s all here in Sexy Bits. I wasn’t sure what to expect in this new adult romance genre, but I was pleasantly surprised. The writing is on point to be sure with a solid story arc in a short easy read. Take it on a vacation if you can or on the beach. Here’s a quick sample: “The silence is comfortable but heart-breaking all at once. I feel the burn of tears, but I sway myself to not let them fall.”
We see this story in the here and now through Claire, the 23-year old well-flawed protagonist’s eyes, and we feel her confusion and frustration. The operative words here are tension and suspense. We are wound up with Claire more and more as we turn the pages and we are brought to a fever pitch in the outcome (suspense).
The settings are brilliant and breathtaking in their imagery, another testament to the writing. One setting/scene comes to mind toward the end of the film … I mean book (that’s how visual the descriptions are) where Claire and Mason are on a boat and there are whales and dolphins and love and … you get the picture. Another strong word that comes to mind is foreplay. If you like foreplay, you love Sexy Bits.
Imagine that your best friend gifts you a dream vacation, only it is not your dream. This is what happens to Claire. Jess encourages Claire to get out of her comfort zone and sends her on a vacation where everyone is nude. Claire has eyes for her butler, but to make advances would be out of her comfort zone. Claire’s struggles with the comfort zone is so real. I related easily to her. I liked the level headed Claire, and I also liked when she stepped out of that zone. This story had me hooked from its beginning and I could not put it down. Remi Wild is fast becoming a favorite author to me.
Bridget Bordeaux brought this tory to life. Her narration of Claire really brought out the internal struggles Claire had. Bridget narrated Claire as I imagined her to be. Bridget has an easy to listen to voice, SHe easily kept the characters distinct and easy to follow. I enjoyed Bridget’s narration of this story.
A virgin on an anything goes nude fantasy island! I liked the romance package of this story but was not crazy about the crappy men on the island trying to take whatever they want. The best friend was wild and I would love to listen to her story as well. Fantastic ending 😉 I received this audiobook by my request in exchange for an honest review from Audiobook Boom.

What happens when your best friend takes you on a beach vacation, only its a fetish beach club? Claire finds herself in this situation, with her butler Mason the eye of her attraction. As a 23 year old virgin, she is going to take her best friends advice and get out of her comfort zone, finding the one to do the deed. But will she find that special someone outside of her off limits butler? This original plot has all the elements of a fun loving listen, Remi Wild adds moments of complete hilarity, frustration and passion. There are unexpected twists and she writes with such imagery that you can feel,the breeze on the beach and the warmth of the sun. I enjoyed this escape and the outcome of their story.
Bridget Bordeaux does a great job with the narration. I have seen her grow as a narrator and enjoy her portrayal of innocent Claire and outgoing Jess. She easily transitions between male and female voices and enhances the story with her performance.

A highly entertaining and fun read, “Sexy Bits” engages you right from the start as your curiosity peaks as Claire and Jess embark on their daring adventure, and are exposed in more ways than one! Through humor, drama and romance this story unfolds and although it does have a dash of sexy… the sweeter, gentler moments are what shine and lend to the chemistry between Claire and Mason. The plot was very creative, and I loved discovering the true nature of Mason.
Listened on audio: This was my first listen by narrator Bridget Bordeaux and was amazed by her talent and range of voices. Oh my, I don’t think she could have made Mason any sexier with that Australian accent… totally had me swooning! It was a very enjoyable listening experience.

It is an entertaining and enjoyable story, there is a nice balance of humor and heartfelt romance. The original storylines are interesting and held my attention from start to end. I really liked these characters, Claire and Jess, best friends, Jess books the vacation of a lifetime for them to enjoy before opening their business. That vacation turns out to be an all inclusive “nudist” resort that caters to specific needs. Jess, knowing Claire is still a virgin, books her the romance package, she booked her self a kinkier one. A bit out of Claire comfort zone but she goes with it, then finds out the all inclusive includes a self assigned guide, a guide to her pleasure. Her guide is an Australian accented gorgeous hunk named Mason. I liked these two together, they just clicked and the chemistry between them was through the roof. Mason was so good to her, he was patient with her and did not take advantage of her. I loved how it all played out, from the funny arrival to the resort, boots and all to the sweet ending. Perfect amount of drama, humor, sweet moments, some angsty ones, some sweet romance, some hot steamy romance, also loved the twist of who he was. Thank you Remi Wild, Ravenna Young for another great story, it is nice to see another side of your creative mind.
I listened to the Audible edition, Bridget Bordeaux is a terrific narrator and voice performer. He brings these characters to life, gives each their own voice and personality making it easy to follow which character is speaking. She gave Mason a nice accent. She is an entertaining storyteller and a pleasure to listen to. Thank you for this great listen
