Darling starts off, pre-credits, on a pretty blistering note: a spirited Shayla LaVeaux/Devinn Lane tongue, finger and hardware hoe-down.

From there, it turns into a sort of discourse, care of narrator Juli Ashton, on the relative virtues of singledom versus married life. Various points are made, of course, with the help of the tape's six remaining sex scenes, some of which are more inspired than others.

Those that are in the "more" category include a sweltering Keri Windsor/Inari Vachs/Ashton threeway and the closer, another threeway, lively at times, featuring Ashton, LaVeaux and Devin Wolf (that's a guy).

But did the script really take three writers and six rewrites, as LaVeaux informs us, to complete? All that effort sure ain't readily apparent in the finished product.
