Where are the rest of these Steam Room Stories Universe?  I want to read them.  This blurb looked too funny to pass up with guys calling their friends "bros" and a sex robot Rob.  What kind of crazy shenanigans will happen?  Quite a bit.

Chase is a guy who is a workaholic.  His relationships with his past few girlfriends have been lackluster.  His oblivious neglect of them pretty much kills what little they had.  When circumstances bring him a new roommate, Rob, Chase's entire world turns upside down.

First off, the start of this book is hilarious by throwing the reader directly into a sex scene.  This kind of cliché plot with a lover robot being forced to be an ultimate solider killing machine is surprisingly funny.  Funny because usually with this amount of campy phrasing, specifically of sexual acts and sexual organs, I'm usually cringing or wanting to throw the book away.  Mr. Calciano writes it in a manner that is tongue in cheek funny.  This book is filled with perverse naughtiness and bros who are horny cheeky buggers.  

Second, amidst all this corniness, there is a focused plot and love story.  I like how Rob grows to be more than just a machine.  His experiences and his desire to serve are sweet and humbling.  He is the quintessential 1950s June Cleaver housewife.  This pairing is romantic and sweet because it works for both Rob and Chase.  Chase's biggest hurdles with falling for Rob are the fact that Rob is male and ... not human.  Not that Chase realizes this at the beginning.

The scenes in this story are outrageous at times.  The final showdown where Rob defends himself from the military is surreal.  I can't begin to describe or explain what happens.  What I can say is that I want this turned into a Netflix movie.  Because it is hilarious and right up my alley.  Although it would probably be rated NC-17.  This erotic romance is recommended to readers who want a good laugh and enjoys gay for you themes.
