Apex Review Of The Red Hot Bucket List (Malerie Page)

Aug. 15, 2015 - PRLog -- The Red Hot Bucket List is about a twenty-four-year-old girl named Amber Aiken-Wood, who moves to New York after finishing graduate school for journalism in Boston, Massachusetts. Amber grew up in Edinburgh, Scotland, although her mother was of English decent and her father was American. Her parents did not stay together after she turned six. Additionally, her and her father did not have a close relationship, even though they stayed in contact with one another.

Moving forward, Amber gets a job being a Digital Data Journalist for a company called Morpheus Media Enterprises. While in New York, she has an intimate relationship with one of her co-workers, named Max Clark. Max does not want an emotional relationship with Amber, and as a result Amber feels very hurt that she was used as a one-night stand. After this encounter, Amber tells herself that she will no longer let others use her emotionally, and she decides that she will explore herself sexually and be in control of her personal life. As a result, she makes a list of twelve goals that she hopes to accomplish.

Max and his girlfriend, Susie Mathers, help her accomplish one of her goals, which was to be involved in a three-way. Regardless of what she had told herself, she becomes involved physically with Max, and he still does not want to leave his girlfriend, Susie, for her. Amber was not trying to separate Max and Susie, but she was hoping that because their relationship was inconsistent in the past, he would be exclusive to Amber.

Amber continues to try to complete her set of goals for herself and soon blogs about them, though when she makes her blog public, she does not include the names of people she encountered. Amber soon becomes involved with her boss, Anton, though their relationship eventually grows deeper and they agree to become exclusive to each other. He also convinces her to stop writing about her personal life unless it is about him and her, and she agrees. Anton moves to San Francisco as the company is taken over, and Amber goes with him.

This story will appeal to individuals who enjoy reading erotic novels, though the writing does not surpass the genre and will not appeal to individuals who usually do not read erotic novels or are not interested in the genre. As mentioned beforehand, this story mostly focuses on the erotic parts, though it could have gone more into depth about Millie, Amber’s roommate, aside from the fact that Amber had slept with her cousin. There were also some grammatical errors and sentence fragments throughout this novel.

Overall, this story served the purpose in taking the reader through Amber’s journey as she was trying to achieve the personal goals she had made for herself. The details of Amber’s journey were very well written, and while this book does not discuss Amber’s work life extensively and many of the minor characters traits are underdeveloped, it is still an erotic, leisurely novel to read.
