Forbidden fruit in every sense of the word.

*I received a copy of this book in return for an honest review.*
Short story told from the point of view of the dirty cheater.
Who reads only because of the sex scenes will like the story.
I got mad at the guy who couldn't keep the zipper of his pants closed.
It's not my cup of tea.

Note: the babysitter is 21, deliberate adultery
I'm having a hard time putting a review together, even more giving a review I feel comfortable with.
As much as I enjoyed the eloquent writing style that reminds me of Emmanuelle de Maupassant, with this setting and story the narrative felt oddly out of place for me.
Also, there was far too much time spend to describe all settings, like the party - including the entire buffet - although the main character did leave just moments later, or both flats. I understand - now having finished this short - that the scene at the party was necessary for a foreshadowing of the next encounter of "Dick".
Then for a short there was far too detailed background information about all named characters. It would have fittet better if that book was longer, especially because all that knowledge about the characters didn't help me to build a connection to them.
Even worse: none of the characters were really likable to me.
The erotic scene where the story was working towards was very well described, a little repetitive, but I couldn't really enjoy any of it. And that this story is obviously addressing a male audience - because I get that mane men fantasize about their babysitter - but because of the adultery. He neither has his wife's consent, nor is his marriage over. It's real plain adultery and he expects everything to continue and has - as stated - no guilty feelings. And I personally absolutely despise that.
I probably would have given this short four stars, I really was about to, but the character became aware about what he was doing and he deliberately continued and cheated on his wife.
And if this book was just a scene about a man having his awesome fantasy fulfilled in taking his kid's babysitter, I wouldn't have been so strickt on everything. However, the narration of the book, obviously wants it to be regarded as more.

2.5 still not one of my favorites but a hot quick read none the less. I didn't leave a review the first time I read it so here goes....
Richard and Alice have attended a company holiday party the company he works for was holding, Richard wasn't happy about being there and couldn't wait to leave. When they return home their eighteen year old babysitter says she needs his help so he goes upstairs to his apartment and proceeds to have sex with her. It was hot but it still felt kind of icky and it wasn't because she was calling him Mr. Martin because there are plenty of books where that's a thing, and it wasn't the age gap because again that's not an issue. It could be because his wife was in the apartment/flat downstairs and he was upstairs getting his rocks off without her knowledge, it was full on cheating - not an open marriage or a menage or anything like that, and then while he's having sex he starts to feel guilty...but that doesn't mean he stops mind you.
If you don't mind cheating you'll probably enjoy this read but if you do, I'd suggest you skip this one.

Author Dark Inferno stopped by On Top Down Under Book Reviews and discussed Sweet Temptations: The Babysitter, the upcoming sequels to the story, and his other works in progress.
What happens when a man, who is happily married and has never strayed, is tempted by his young and sexy babysitter? Does he follow through and take what the babysitter offers? Or does he walk away? I suggest reading this story to find out.
This is a very sexy story. I ended it eagerly wanting the second in the series. Highly recommended if you love good erotica.

Considering this book is only 35 pages, it certainly packed a lot in.
There was plenty of descriptions about people and the scenery at the office party, which I didn't expect because of the length of the book. The banter between Richard, Scarlett and Alice was clever. If I hadn't of known the title of the book, I would have thought Richard's indiscretion would have been with Scarlett.
There were 4 sentences I didn't like in the whole book. These were:
"He thrust his tongue into her molten depths" (I don't think any woman would like to have her lady parts described as moulten depths!)
"She had a spiced, tangy flavour" (Never tasted a spicy tangy muff unless it's during crisp play lmao)
"Ughhh....so-so tight" (Tight is good isn't it?? Not ughhh)
"Withdrawing his softening arousal from her still vivacious channel" (Vivacious = attractively, lively and animated....clever pussy! And channel is just a no no lol)
They lost the book a star!
All in all, it was an enjoyable read and worthy of 4 stars just for the amount the author managed to fit in and that it was well written and flowed nicely.

This is the first I have read from this author. He sure didn't fail to please! Even though this novella was short (35 pages) it still packed a punch! This novella is written through Richard Martin's Pov. He and his wife, Alice, are attending a Christmas Party. They come home and the realization of his hot yet innocent looking babysitter having the hots for him hits Richard. I don't want to give any spoilers, so you should definitely read this! This novella is sexy and will leave you dripping! Bring on some more from Dark Inferno!

I recently just finished this book and it was spicy let me tell you. But in all honesty I really did love it. Its an extremely quick read and I can't wait to read more. All of the character work together wonderfully and the chemistry from them all are fabulous. Like I said at the beginning I is a very quick read yet it will get you hot. So make sure you have a bucket of ice water to dump on yourself after you finish this story. All in all its a 5 out of 5 stars for sure! I am very excited to read more from Dark Inferno.

A good, fast treat of a read. Richard couldn't hold his frustration any longer when Rebecca tempted him to far, his wife was long forgotten. A hot little story, interested to see what Richard gets up to next.

The Sweet Temptations series is one to watch out for and add to your TBR lists if you enjoy great writing, with fast, gripping and hot story lines. A very easy and thoroughly enjoyable read. Dark Inferno has a way of painting a solid picture in few words. Also a well edited novella with little to none grammatical errors which urged me to give this read an extra star! Looking forward to the next novella in the series.

Holy Hotness!!!!! If you are looking for a short but extremely hot read this is the book for you. At first Mr. Martin had me saying WTF. All that changed and now I would love to be Mr. Martins babysitter! !! He will have you pissed then all hot and bothered in a matter of seconds! Can't wait until the next one comes out.

Wow! I have to admit...I really enjoyed Sweet Temptations. It's taboo and cliche, but seriously hot. L.M. Mountford showed readers how a simple everyday man is faced with temptation from his boss to his babysitter. Things that normal men (and women) are faced with all the time. Of course, he didn't handle it very well, but it's a book and these things happen in books (and real life) to make a good story. Readers are supposed to be entertained and I was entertained. I definitely don't agree with cheating in any way, shape, form or fashion, but I don't necessarily mind reading it in fiction. This was Richard's fantasy and I see him as a man who was overcome with unexpected lust. Maybe in the future installments, we'll see Alice get her own sweet temptation and some revenge??

This is a hot little spicy sassy novella here , I can't wait to read the whole book! Wow , some might say this is a controversial topic but I can see how things can happen . Maybe the taboo is part of what makes it hot ! Looking forward to reading the rest of this authors work . I received an ecopy for my honest opinion and review , I don't give spoilers so , check it out for yourself, you won't be disappointed but it is short cause it continues on in another book as a series .

I liked the overall story but I struggle with the cheating. I know this is fiction and sometimes cheating is less bothersome to me. I liked Alice and that's probably why I struggle a little more with it. The scene with the babysitter, Rebecca, is hot and Alice getting her digs in with Scarlet is fantastic (honestly, it's my favorite part of the novelette).

-- MY THOUGHTS --
Micro-Novella: under 50 pages. I will admit, I was hesitant to agree to read this for the author for several reasons, based on previous experience and NOT person preference. Right away, I thought this novella may have a few strikes against because it's been my experience that 1) novellas of this length rarely create a full, dynamic story. 2) Romance stories written by male authors have been more graphic and crass than romantic and/or erotic. And 3) I've really had a hard time connecting with many British authors. It's not the language and terminology, because I generally enjoy discovering a "footpath" in place of sidewalk, "crisps" in place of chips or "windscreen" in place of windshield.
Despite all of that, I vowed to myself when I began writing reviews more seriously that I'd be 100% honest and fair with every book I read. I agreed to read the book, because I was asked to. Simple as that. So, these are my findings on this novella:
It is written in a third-person format, but obviously from the male's POV. That is something we do not often have the opportunity to experience. The synopsis was off-putting because I have zero-tolerance for cheaters, but I'm well aware that they are out there and felt that regardless of my personal feelings, I'd still give it a fair and honest assessment. That it is the babysitter that is the temptress is rather cliche though and woefully unoriginal. On the bright side, the characters are written well. The dialogue and interaction feel believable and the flow of the writing is really good. There are a few parts that are so distinctly "foreign" that I felt like I needed a translator app to fully comprehend it, but that did not detract from the quality or experience. While the first half of the novella has a bit of plot working for it, the full second half is a detailed, play-by-play sex scene. There's no resolution other than the fact that they both got off and the conclusion is "to be continued". It is no more a stand-alone novella than the pilot episode of a new TV program would be. If "cheating spouses" is a sub-genre of romance that you enjoy, I'd probably wait for the rest of the novellas to release and read it as a whole. While I'm not a fan of the sub-genre and topic, I was very pleased with the quality of writing and flow in this novella.

I received a free copy of this book by signing up for the author’s newsletter. As such, I didn’t know much about the book beyond the description on the author’s Twitter ad. I like babysitter stories and this one sounded pretty hot.
The ad was told from the babysitter’s point of view so you can imagine my surprise when the story beings with Richard at his firm’s Christmas party. We quickly learn that Richard hates being there and soon discover one of the reasons why. His supervisor, Scarlet Homes, arrives on the scene to make his life miserable. Scarlet is supermodel hot and she knows it. Watching her taunt and tease poor Richard makes me forget all about the babysitter and instead makes me wish someone would dump a bowl of punch over her perfect little head.
Then Richard’s wife shows up at the worst possible moment. The banter between Alice and Scarlet is priceless. The claws are out, but this catfight is handled through exquisite dialogue and skilled storytelling. Alice eventually gets the upper hand in a very sexy way. (You’ll need to read the story to find out, I’m not telling.) Scarlet storms off, the office breaks out in applause, and Alice drags a very humiliated Richard out of the room.
At this point, I realize this isn’t just another bang the babysitter story. This story is about real people with real problems in real situations. Richard could be any one of a dozen guys I’ve known. When we finally reach the scene between Richard and the babysitter we realize Richard isn’t looking to have sex with her. She comes on to him and, as the title suggests, he struggles with the temptation. The heat builds until he eventually succumbs (this is erotica after all) and we are given a sex scene that is best read one-handed, if you get my drift.
The only criticism I can give, and this is mostly my own fault, is that the story ends with a cliffhanger. I didn’t realize this was the first of three books, so when the story ends with Richard heading back to his apartment where a horny Alice awaits, I’m left wondering how Richard is going to explain his encounter to his wife. I want to read that scene!
Looks like I’ll be picking up book 2.

Richard hates to go on parties, especially his firm’s Christmas parties. He is married with Alice and he is committed to her, honored and honest man. On this party Richard’s boss daughter Scarlett openly flirts with him in front of his wife. That night when he and his wife go home after Christmas party there was Rebecca, their neighbor and babysitter and for the first time in his life he was tempted. Richard couldn’t think in that way if Rebecca doesn’t ask him to repair her computer or if Alice doesn’t mention that Rebecca is beautiful and looks at him with admiration.
This is small book for people who like adult fiction. Interesting is that in this about thirty pages everything is written and described well. I don’t expect explanation for décor of the party and Richard’s home considering genre and weight of the book, but is interesting and embed in content.
I like Richard when he was faithful and honest and dedicated to his wife. I don’t like much Alice and I think that she is the reason why Richard did what he did. She is little bit rigid, jealous and demanding. Scarlett is blatant, I don’t judge her, but I couldn’t stand that kind of girls.

If ever you need to get your motor started and books can do it for you then this is the one you should read. It is short and extremely HOT!!
I gave this 5 stars based solely on the fact that it made want to jump my husband. It is extremely erotic. Now as for the main man, he is a slimy piece of crap. Personally I think he should chop it off an hand it to his wife because that is what she is going to do anyway. I despise cheating husbands (too much personal experience). He has an extremely attractive wife, a relatively new baby and apparently low self esteem.

The Babysitter is a good story about a lonely husband and his struggles to resist temptation from work and at home. Obviously from the title it is clear that the temptation at home is the babysitter that lives upstairs. Yes this is a short book, but 2 things that I really liked about this book was the fact that it was short. I mean why not? It was a quick hot read about a man that gets to do what probably a lot of men fantasize about. And I got to read an entire book while waiting at the doctor’s office instead of staring at boring magazines. The 2nd thing I liked about this book is that it’s from a man’s point of view. There may be some phrases in the book that I didn’t care for? But I am not going to fault the author for that, again… it is from a man’s point of view, so it’s just my taste and you can’t please everyone. If the next book is short like this one? I will read it as well, just to see what this whole story may have in store for us. Technically I am giving this book a 3.5 star, but will score it as 4 stars on Amazon and Goodreads.

I must say that even though this story is a short one, it certainly left a lasting impression. I know when I finished it, I had a smirk on my face. Not a smile or a grin, but a smirk. I thought it sexy & sneaky. I really, really liked this story. One could even say it's taboo but really it's just plain old infidelity. May not have been right, however, I don't believe morality is the theme here. This is a well written fantasy of an ordinary, working, family man who's tempted by the babysitter. Happens everyday. This story just goes into detail of how that would happen. And you know what else? It probably wouldn't have happened if it weren't for his wife saying what she said. I'm not putting ALL the blame on her but it sure did influence his decision. The ending was definitely a bit of a cliffhanger. Oh, I SO want to know what happens next!! I guess that's where my smirk comes from. So, if you're looking for an erotic quick fix, read this. You just might be the one smirking.

Richard is married to Alice and they have a toddler, they live in a towerblock and have an average life. Having a young child there relationship isn't what it was and Alice gets jealous very easily. When a co worker comes on to her husband Alice gets territorial, I thought that was fun. Having dodged a difficult situation at the works party he heads home not realising his about to be in another difficult place, this one he won't be able to resist.
The babysitter obviously has eyes for the older man and when she gets her chance she take it and it's steamy.
I enjoyed this short read which appears will be a serial book, it's has a realistic feel, no millionaires and posh parties, just an office worker being tempted to cheat on his wife. It described the work Christmas do well and showed Richard to be a decent guy other than cheating!
This book is written in British English and has British terminology.

**I received a free copy of this book to read and review for Wicked Reads.**
This is a very short novella with a lot packed into it.
The foundation that is laid in the beginning is boring but needed for the rest of the story. It is very well written. Richard Martin is a middle aged man seduced by his son's innocent much younger babysitter. He is frustrated at work, hit on by his boss at the Christmas party. When Richard and his wife sneak out early she questions his actions with the coworker, which he says how uninterested he is. They get home the babysitter asks for help with the computer. The babysitter is a temptation Mr Martin just can't pass up.

Review for Rising Indies United
While I usually don't like books that involve cheating, this was a good quick read. It is very well written and kept my attention. This is a very short read and Dark Inferno did great with the details that you usually loose with a shorter book.
Richard and Lucy are out for his works Christmas party. They end up leaving early because Lucy catches Richard's boss, Scarlet, coming onto him.
Lucy basically throws herself at her husband, but he leaves to help their babysitter with a computer problem.
I did like Richard at the beginning of the story, but now, I think he is a major jerk! And Rebecca, ya, can't stand her at all. I found myself wishing that Lucy would have gone to find Richard and see what was taking him so long. I wanted her to catch him.

Not quite enough to it, but short and sweet with enough to wet your appetite....This erotic taboo of possibly banging the babysitter is just a society's truth that we are indeed often lead astray from baser instincts. Afterall Richard is just a man....and sometimes you just loose your better judgement and take whats in front of you. Even the thirstiest man will drink from the wrong well when denied long enough...and what sweeter temptation that a willing sweet young woman. Even his wife knows that the babysitter follows his every move. This book is definitely hot as the sin within and makes you want the next book to see how much temptation Richard can stand without it blowing up in his face and ruining his family. Will look forward to seeing what other temptations the author puts in front of Richard.

Richard Martin is married to his University sweetheart, Alice and father to a baby boy, Alexander. The story begins at his company holiday party and has been caught by his wife by a public flirtation by Scarlet Holmes the boss’s daughter.
The couple leaves early from the event and come home to the babysitter, Rebecca Blaire, the beautiful neighbor that lives a floor above them watching their infant for the night and who has also asked Mr. Martin to help fixed her computer.
First Scarlet and now Rebecca? What is it with this night of being seduced? Plus being sexually frustrated does not make the situations at hand easier. The question is will he or will he not give in? The 4 stars quick read was to the point and had many scenes that will have engrossed at what is presented while reading. A great start to this tempting series! #darkinferno #sweettemptations #thebabysitter

I received a copy of this book in exchange for an honest review.
Returning home with his wife from his works Christmas Party. The babysitter Rebecca asks Richard to fix her computer. AS he wife starts to make the moves on him, he reminds her he needs to go to Rebecca's and fix the compute. Where he ends up fixing a whole lot more then that.
This is a short erotica story. While I am normally not big on books that have cheating spouses. I have to admit this one has a extremely hot sex scene. While Richard knows what he is doing is wrong. He can't resist Rebecca. Not that he makes to much effort at resisting. Rebecca tries to play it off as being innocent but she is anything but. Does make me wonder how he is going to play it when he has to return to his own apartment to his waiting wife.

Sweet Temptations: The Babysitter was a very quick and short read, but it has a lot in it.
Richard has a work Christmas party which was mandatory, so he and his wife Alice only stay for a couple hours until they can sneak out and go home. They have a child so they had to hire a babysitter for the night. When they get home the babysitter, Rebecca, asks Richard if he can help fix her computer. She lives in the same apartment complex, so a little bit after she leaves Richard goes there. He ends up fixing her computer, but that's not all…
You will have to read to find out what happens. This book left me wanting more and I can't wait to find out what will happen next! ~ Leah, 4 Stars

Let me start out by saying that this is a short story only 36 pages and was given to me for my honest review. It was perfectly written and has some really hot scenes but for being so short it doesn't leave you hanging. I'm rating this as 3 stars because in my personal opinion I just didn't like certain parts in this story. I would consider reading more from this author if the book is a little bit longer because I really did enjoy how well written this story was. If you are looking for something fast to read and you like these types of stories then this is one for you.

Richard is a devoted husband, devoted father, and devoted employee. He's never strayed in all the years he's been with his wife but suddenly he's more than a little tempted. When an opportunity arises (pun intended) to be with his babysitter does he do the right thing and walk away? Or does he follow through with what the babysitter is offering?
This was a sexy short. The writing is good and the sex is hot as hell. I can't wait to see what happens next in the series.
