MAKE THE COUGAR PURR by Sonja Paris
An Erotic Journey of Rediscovery Tired of romance novels that just portray young women with bodies to die for, novelist Sonja Paris tried a new approach in her first novel “Make The Cougar Purr” (ISBN: 978-1452824543; 494 pages; paperback; CreateSpace). This book is about betrayal, loss and sexual identification, and even though Paris put her work into a fictional “skeleton” its “vital organs” are in part based on autobiographic reflection of her own very turbulent life (she’s the widow of Johnny and the Hurricanes® saxophone legend Johnny Paris®). “Cougar” depicts the life of Hannah, a middle-aged woman in a small Ohio town. Constantly betrayed by her husband, she drowns her sorrow in booze and spends his money freely, until he reveals to her that his last affair with a much younger woman is based on true love and not on pure lust. Driven by rage and desperate to find a new identity for herself, Hannah turns into a prancing cougar on the hunt and stumbles from one sexual escapade into another on her search for true love. Paris’ writing style combines all the five senses with raw sex and deep-felt emotions, described so vividly, as if watching a screenplay.

“The author has a real talent for drawing the reader into the story. You find yourself wondering what Hannah (the main character) is up to when you aren't reading. This is an adult novel--make no mistake, the subject matter is mature, but the use of adult language makes the characters seem like real people and not fictional creations. A very believable and enjoyable read. “
Reading Sonja Paris' "Make the Cougar Purr"--what a read! Oddly fascinating, it depicts cougar Hannah as a real flesh and blood woman. 9:39 PM Jul 22nd via web (by Diana Faillace)
