Editor's Notes and Comments:

Product Description:


They call her the Perfectionist. A stunning, mysterious, and fearless sexual adventurer, Lisa is founder and supreme mistress of The Club—an exclusive island resort where forbidden fantasy meets willing flesh. Here eager participants who can afford life's most exquisite luxuries can experience the breathtaking pleasures of surrender and submission. Here nothing is taboo.



A thrill-seeking photojournalist, Elliott risks his life daily in the most dangerous, war-torn regions on Earth. Now he has come to Paradise to explore his darkest sexual self, committed to the ultimate plunge into personal risk.



Together, their journey to the limits of erotic pleasure will take them farther than they ever dreamed they'd go . . .



Amazon.com Review:
The same imagination that brought you the spellbinding sensuality of The Vampire Chronicles brings you the wickedly erotic and tantalizing tale of Lisa and Elliot's journey to the limits of pleasure and darkness at The Club, an exclusive island resort where forbidden fantasy meets willing flesh. A literary romp.

Rated by buyers 4 out of 5 stars - Nothing Like the "Movie Version"
[close] I was one of the fortunate people who was able to read this book before the film came out. I would like to open by stating that if you liked the "movie" starring Rosie O'Donnell, DO NOT READ THE BOOK. Likewise, if you read the book, avoid the movie like you would avoid a rabid dog showing signs of ebola.

This is not Rice's greatest erotic work. It lacks the expansiveness of the Beauty trilogy or the vividness of Belinda. Those facts aside, this is an interesting work from a psychological standpoint (understanding the "top" and "bottom" or "Master/Mistress" "slave" relationships), and not a bad read for its sexual content and scenes. However, it is not the pathetic, vaguely slapstick comedy that the film made it into, and is nowhere near the quality of most of her other work.



Rated by buyers 1 out of 5 stars - Not what I expected...
This book wasn't what I expected; never read an Anne Rice, but after reading what others had written, thought I'd buy a book of hers.
Should have saved my money; this story was too far-fetched. Didn't finish it.



Rated by buyers 3 out of 5 stars - Entertaining, but not what you'd think...
When I bought Exit to Eden, I was expecting a rather graphic, intense novel more along the lines of the Beauty trilogy. What I got was a whirlwind romance bracketed by The Club. The Club is much akin to the Beauty trilogy; however, The Club is played up, then drops almost completely out of sight. If you enjoy romance novels, minus the kinkiness that Anne Rice has a reputation for, then this might be right up your alley. It's got just a dash of kink, but predominantly it's a tale of two lovers. As in the Beauty books, it gets a bit repetetive after a while. Unlike her Vampire Chronicles, where the end seemed to come all to soon, by the time I made it to the end of Exit to Eden, I was good and ready to get there.



Rated by buyers 4 out of 5 stars - Ignore the movie. Read the book
Don't confuse the movie with this book. There are no detectives chasing diamond thieves and this is not a comedy.

Anne Rice took a break from writing her Vampire Chronicles series to pen "Exit To Eden" under the pen name Anne Rampling. This novel explores the subject of BDSM within the context of a romantic relationship between Mistress Lisa Kelly and Elliot Slater. Kelly manages an isolated BDSM resort that offers its high-end clients an exclusive setting in which they can experience the life of a Master or Mistress. Likewise, the slaves are there of their own freewill in search of fantasy exploration.

Mistress Lisa gets very first pick of the new slaves and chooses Slater. Their chemistry is undeniable from the start and intensifies throughout their time together. As the story unfolds, they fall in love with each other and must come to terms with the power dynamics of how Mistress and slave can become mutual lovers.

Although fiction, this book reveals the potential correlation between BDSM and romance. Anne Rice is a wonderful author.




Rated by buyers 4 out of 5 stars - Good - maybe not 5 stars but still good.
I have read so much about Anne Rice - and finally managed to read one of her books - since I dislike anything with vampires thought I would give this a try. All I have to say is "where is the Club?" and where can I meet a man like Elliott?? wow! This is a very sensual tale about two people Lisa and Elliott who have enjoyed to the hilt such a heavy dose of an alternative s&m life style but when this couple finally meet - PASSION!! Much more powerful and intense for both of them than they have ever experienced. They both find themselves willing to risk anything to persue this opportunity with "love." Rice actually allows you to see them fall in love in their flight from the Club. This is a strong powerful book and I found it a page turner.
