Calling all N.Y.M.P.H.O. Lovers

I was recently reminded of a little known (?) series of sex/action pulp novels written under the pseudonym of Glen Chase, which represented several authors (apparently among them Gardner F. Fox, who wrote several campy Sword & Sorcery novels that I own and love).

Here's the Fantastic Fiction entry for the "Cherry Delight: the Sexecutioner" series:

Cherry Delight is (apparently...) the top agent of N.Y.M.P.H.O., the New York Mafia Persecution and Harassment Organization. Although she is a full-blooded "secret agent", her methods of "getting her man" are a little different than some of the other crimefighters out there like Mack Bolan, the Death Merchant, or Nick Carter (well, maybe not Carter...).

Is there anyone out there who has read any of the Cherry Delight books and can give an account of them? I'm sure they are utterly ridiculous, but I'm curious if the overall impression is "fun and entertaining" or "offensive and crappy".
