Looking for a Black Lace book from the 1990s

I’m hoping that MNs ability to track down anything on line can help me out.

Back in the mid 90s I found a Black Lace book in my mums room … I borrowed it to read having no idea what I was about to find. It was, literally, mind blowing and educational and erotic and all things.

I know there have been a million Black Lace books published but I’d love to read this one again.

I can’t remember the title, but it was set in the future - all humans lived in space and there were bandits / pirates so all the “posh” people lived an effectively gated community lifestyle. Main character was frustrated / bored and set up a kidnap by one of these pirates. I seem to recall a scene near the end that involved a lot of food.

Written down now it doesn’t appear to have been a classic 😆 but it holds a lot of nostalgic memories, plus I’m really god damn frustrated at the moment and could do with some inspiration.

Does it ring any bells with anyone?

You mentioned Black Lace. I immediately thought. Agado!

Which hasn’t help at all when I’ve been trying to Google possible titles 😁

Pretty obvious suggestions but you could search Amazon...the books section...that may eliminate the pop song 😆. There are lots of second hand book sellers on there...you might find it. Obviously much easier if you could recall the title. Then there is that well known auction site.

@buzzing - Do you mean Lace by Shirley Conran ?

@buzzing - Do you mean Lace by Shirley Conran ?

Thank you for the suggestion, looked it up but not that sadly.

This book was definitely from the Black Lace series … it was very eye opening to teenage me Blush I recall borrowing it out of my mums room every time I had the house to myself… probably don’t need to spell the rest out Wink

I think there were probably many books written by many authors - hundreds I think. I was hoping there might be a website somewhere recording than all but I haven’t found one.

Wahoooo! Glad it helped. I hope it lives up to expectations

buzzing · 09/08/2023 12:36

Right, own up, who else just bought this book?! There was another copy for sale on Amazon this morning that's no longer there... I can't believe there'd be two random purchases for a 30 year old erotic fiction book in the same day Grin

Hope you enjoy anyway Wink

😂

the copy I bought was only a few pounds I promise. I’m keen to read it again, but not that keen.

I will update when it arrives and let you know if it lives up to expectations 😳

This takes me back! I remember finding a book in the Black Lace series on a bookshelf in the spare room of a relative's house where we stayed sometimes. It must have been in the late 1980s.

It was real eye-opener to my younger self! Like the OP I'd be quite interested to read it again to see if it had the same impact or whether I might find the style etc a bit meh, these days.
