Review Quotes:

"Street lit erotica with a quasi-feminist twist."--Vibe

"The Queen of Hip Hop Sex!"- Wendy Williams

"A no holds barred story, Ms. Hunter left nothing to the imagination, and if you can imagine it, then it's probably in this book. In Insatiable, the readers is given privy to the mind of Simone Young, a young woman who doesn't accidentally end up in the porn industry, who isn't tricked or forced into the business, but who--as far as she's concerned--walks into it with both eyes wide open, and when she does, all of her dreams come true, and understandably, so do her nightmares. Don't mess up and let this one slip by you. It's one hell of a read!"-- J.D. Mason author of This Fire Down In My Soul

"Hunter is coming out with the most anticipated book from the sexual underworld since Karrine Stephans' Video Vixen caused seismographic aftershocks within the hip hop nation. The semiautobiographical novel, centered on a sexually acrobatic woman, Simone Young, is so salacious it practically has condoms hanging off the hook." --Rolling Out

"... full-frontal portrait"--Publishers Weekly

"The most popular Black woman in adult cinema"--Essence magazine

"Raw, sexy, and entertaining. ... Heather Hunter is ready to take the literary world by storm."--Urban Reviews

"Insatiable brought to life an industry that most of us have never understood and have judged." --The RAWSISTAZ Reviewers
