‘A Taste of Scarlet’ by Beth Hildenbrand offers the reader a luscious platter of erotic poetry redolent of a box of decadent, chocolate-covered cherries. Each seductive, autobiographical poem enables one to taste the dark nuances of love: temptation, euphoria, toxic turns, heart-wrenching breakups, and soulful resilience.

Beautiful photos accompany each chapter. Chapter titles indicate the categories of poetry chronicling love’s progression: Tasting Scarlet; Seeing Red; Wearing Ruby; Dreaming Rose.

An excerpt from “Me”:
Can’t sing
Can’t dance
But I can write…

Indeed! Hildenbrand’s Shakespearean eloquence ripens with luscious imagery. I highly recommend this poetry collection which resonates with candor, beauty, and inspiration.
