The Prize


Title: The Prize

Literary Nymphs Reviewer: Satyr Vael

Micki has lusted after and longed for Starlyn for two years. As the manager of the popular lesbian nightclub, TM's, Starlyn has watched Micki float from woman to woman, never landing anywhere long. Micki finally gives up, figuring Starlyn simply doesn't want her. Then TM's hosts a charity contest in which the winner gets a date with Starlyn. Micki enters... and wins. Now she just has to make the night one that neither of them – especially Starlyn – ever forgets.

The Prize is a well-written romance centering on two beautiful but lonely women. While the plot isn't deep, the emotions are, and when Micki and Starlyn finally get each other alone, it's worth the wait. The sex was very well done, soft and satisfying but never over-the-top.

Overall, The Prize is a feel-good lesbian romance, one I'd be inclined to recommend for someone looking for a light but fun read.
