Robin Slick is a raging liberal living in downtown Philadelphia who wishes she could jump in a time machine and travel to London in the late sixties where she'd party with the Beatles, Eric Clapton, Jimi Hendrix, and all of their pals. Robin is the author of several published short stories and novels, a nominee for a Best American Short Story award, former fiction editor at both NFG Magazine and Philadelphia Stories, but alas is probably most well known as the mother of Eric Slick, drummer for Dr. Dog and Paper Cat, and Julie Slick, solo artist, bassist for the Adrian Belew Power Trio, and Paper Cat.
Robin's interests include rock music, world travel, and eating gourmet vegetarian meals prepared by five star restaurants and her daughter, Julie.
She generally prefers dogs over people but does not like cats though she should have one, given her irrational fear of mice.

At age seventeen, Annie had a love affair with a man ten years her senior, legendary British rock guitarist Mick Saunders.
Now, feeling stuck in a boring, faltering marriage and feeling desperate to change her life, she is unexpectedly given the chance to reconnect with Mick while chaperoning her fledgling rock star teenagers on a tour across America.
To Annie, this opportunity to recapture her past is a dream come true. But will she and Mick be able to pick up where they left off?
What happens when a frustrated American artist-turned-soccer-mom and her overconfident and charming British cyber-lover plan a three-day tryst of erotic depravity at a hotel in New York City?
Elizabeth and Richard are about to find out.
Elizabeth is about to turn forty years old, facing empty nest syndrome, and wistful about roads not taken. Unhappy in both her marriage and her career, she mourns abandoning her dream of being an artist. She feels like an outsider in her sports-obsessed family and a misfit at work in the corporate world. She's hoping Richard, a refined, British upper class gentleman with unusual sexual preferences, will be her Knight-in-Shining-Armor and rescue her from her unfulfilling life.
What ensues is a hilariously poignant sexual romp through the Big Apple.
This book is the first of two stories about Elizabeth and her quest for a knight in shining armor.
The man she loves is engaged to a woman who could be a supermodel. The man she despises but can't seem to resist is beckoning once again. Her life isn't going nearly as she'd thought it would when she moved to New York city. What's a girl to do?
Elizabeth is back, attitude, insecurities, and all, in this sequel to Three Days in New York City.
Bitten To The Core by Robin Slick ISBN 978-1-60659-531-2
"In Three Days in New York City, she fled a stagnant marriage and a job she hated, looking for a temporary fix of passion. Instead she found the courage to be herself for the first time. In Another Bite of the Apple, she pursued her dream and pined for the man she loved, and won both. Or did she?
Yes, Elizabeth is back, and this time...she's in New Jersey.
Frustrated by the disintegration of her relationship with the absentee Rob, Elizabeth flees to the Jersey shore to paint and wallow in self-pity. A chance encounter with the handsome (and younger) writer Andrew spins her into a whirlwind of domestic and sexually-charged cougar bliss. Question is, will it last, and what becomes of Andrew when it's time to return to reality?
What is reality for Elizabeth, anyway? Find out in the long-awaited third novel of Robin's Slick's bestselling series!"

Take a romp through the passions of characters who find themselves perfectly willing to take the dark plunge-and, in some cases, through the unsuspecting psyches of those about to find themselves at the receiving end of some very vicious plans. Mahatma Gandhi said, "An eye for an eye would make the whole world blind." So turn the page (knowing your eyes are safe), and watch as the characters in these stories and poems begin their dangerous games. In fiction, there are plenty of eyes to go around...

Reviews of Daddy Left Me Alone with God:
Cheryl's Book Nook: "What YOU should do is get this book immediately as the plot is great, the characters interact so well and even Phil the jerk gets page time. Plus, you’ve gotta reminisce about the music! Trust me, you’ll love it!"
Coffee Time Romance: "Daddy Left Me Alone With God is all about getting a second chance and the choices we would make if we had it to do all over again. I enjoyed the character of Annie because she was never portrayed as a perfect woman but as woman with all the flaws of a real woman. The road trip from hell made the story so funny, sad, and poignant, depicting the end of an era and the beginning of the next. Well worth the read; I would recommend that everyone make it least one visit to the world of Robin Slick."
“…a funny, sexy, and scathingly honest look at what it means to be an aging baby boomer in a world changing faster than a phone number on speed dial. With a fresh voice, a fast plot and a unique perspective on the new generation of sex, drugs, and rock and roll…a delight from start to finish.” Ellen Meister, author of THE OTHER LIFE
“Robin’s style is down to earth, her narrative hilarious, and her charm genuine. [Daddy Left Me Alone With God] is a strong story for readers who love to laugh and rock and roll.” – Kathryn Lively, author of Dead Barchetta
“[Robin is] marvelous…as talented as they come.” – Susan DiPlacido, author of Shuffle Up and Deal, and American Cool
"It's a rare gift when a writer can make you laugh at the world, yet still provoke you to ponder the larger questions about life. Robin Slick delivers both in her newest novel that features baby boomer, Annie, now mom to two gifted teenage musicians who are on the road to fame. The road trip is Annie's opportunity to reunite with an unrequited love from her rocker past--a love who is globally famous. From five star hotels to flea bags, crowded bus rides, late nights and sleep-deprived days on the road, you'll wonder about your own suppressed desires, and you'll fall in love with Robin Slick's distinctly impassioned, wise and comedic voice." - Jessica Keener, author of Time to Make the Donuts and Night Swim
Reviews of Bitten to the Core:
Night Owl Romance - "I recommend this easy and delightful read if you like your erotica with a funny leading lady and an absolutely charmingly sexy love interest."
Whipped Cream Erotic Romance Reviews - "Bitten to the Core is a very hot, sexually open, hysterically funny and enlightening story about love and trust, following impulses, getting second chances and giving yourself permission to be happy."
Reviews of Three Days in New York City:
Blog Critics - "Three days in New York City is a great chick lit/erotic story, perfect for hiding in your purse and reading at lunch or before bedtime."
Literary Nymphs - "Told from the first person perspective, it is impossible not to fall into the mind and body of the very realistic forty-something heroine as she learns more about herself in three days than most women learn in a lifetime. I strongly recommend you give this book by Ms. Slick a try."
Blue Iris Journal - "Elizabeth is a charming lead – a strong and vibrant woman who’s finally starting to look for a life for herself after a lifetime of caring for her family. And she’ll pull you along and show the reader the city, and herself, in this tantalizing first novel by Robin Slick."
eCata Romance - "Ms. Slick is a serious and enthralling storyteller that cooked us, just like her character Rob, a perfect story with enough love, passion, sex, friendship and life!"
Reviews of Another Bite of the Apple:
Fallen Angel Reviews - "I really enjoyed this story with its fast pace, its convoluted twists and turns, and the first person point of view."
Romance Divas - "This story was entertaining to say the least."
eCata Romance Rating: 4 Stars Heat level: S"...Ms. Slick has created a commendable character in Elizabeth and there is no mystery to be solved and no over the top action in Another Bite of the Apple. It is just a simple life story of two people coming together and finding the answers to their life through each others eyes. Told in first person, this story shows that even though the road to personal growth is hard, all one needs is love and determination to make the journey worthwhile. If you are a mom struggling with motherhood, check out Another Bite of the Apple!" -Mahaira Fatima, Just Erotic Romance Reviews
