A good, dishy, funny, sexy novel. Perfect by the pool read



When Fanny Packer, a voluptuous belly dancer steals a mysterious codex that looks like the Kama Sutra on steroids from a notorious mafia family in Rome, total chaos ensues. Fortunately for Fanny, her secret admirer, Charley Brooks, will do anything to protect her. Unfortunately that includes out-maneuvering the mob’s most horrific hit man; the hirsute dwarf, Nano Mortale. 
With the help of a dominatrix and traveling in an old bookmobile converted into bordello organized by the Dewey Decimal System, Fanny and Charley make a desperate run from Los Angeles to Worland, Wyoming, where they hope to unlock the codex one position at a time.





My Thoughts 

This novel is so much fun. It is so easy to read, and very interesting. Jonathan Harries wrote a memorable story about a belly dancer named Fanny Packer that men just seem to become obsessed with. It is very validating too as a woman with a not so tiny booty to see that a man wrote about this voluptuous woman as the center of so many mens' fantasy. It is nice to see, and makes you feel like that this what a man actually wants. I feel like too often our heroines are these tiny stick women. Unfortunately quite often they are written this way by other women. I like Mr. Harries's view of a sexy woman. To top it all off, this book is hysterical. I mean I don't want to give a lot away but there are assassins, a mean dwarf, a secret family sex codex, a dominatrix
The really great thing about this novel is that both of these people are people of questionable moral fiber. Charley can be a little bit of a pervert, and Fanny has not always made the best life choices, but despite all of this... by the end of the novel you still really care about these two. You root for them. The ending is perfect, there are twists and turns. And for a person who is very picky about her comedy, (I don't like stupid humor) this book made me laugh out loud. A lot. There was almost a loss of male member from a shotgun, a trip to Wyoming, and sometimes surprisingly moving moments throughout. I mean just some of the words to describe this book, assassin, dwarf, belly-dancer, karma sutra, dominatrix, etc. This book is a no brainer for you beach bag. The only thing I don't recommend about this book is reading it somewhere where you have to be quiet, because the book will make you laugh out loud.
