Aria's eyes fluttered open as the sunlight filtered through the drawn blinds of her crowded room. The hot July heat already filling up her apartment was not a welcome feeling as she slid out of bed and placed her feet upon the comforting cool hardwood floor and padded towards the bathroom. Pulling on the chain that held to the dangling light bulb from the ce...
I'd like to extend a big thank you to my editor, GentWithHandcuffs. * I grew up in New Orleans, bathed in its hedonistic atmosphere. There is a permissive attitude that allows for eccentricity. I always felt free to be my natural self and was utterly without guile. My brother lived in the French Quarter. I would visit on Saturdays to bum around so I saw a...
When I left my house, I wasn't entirely sure why I took the job. But as I drove, praying the sputtering in the engine was just my imagination, I knew. I was broke. For what felt like the millionth time, I cursed my decision to leave Blackwell Modeling as an assistant photographer. What made me think I could handle the stresses and demands a freelance photog...
Once more Kera entered Keely's thoughts, prying her way inside until she could no longer ignore them. Keely's mind had been turning all week. Her libido was in hyper over drive. The more she thought about her fantasies with the other woman, the more she desired them to come true. Every since she'd first seen Kera, she'd been attracted to her. Their friendsh...
The Dream: Watering my plants always reminds me of Angela. I putter with the watering can, clearing away dry leaves, placing tiny stakes of fertilizer in the soil, doing my best to nurture their little green lives. Our first "date" was a tour of her spring garden...rows and rows of glorious irises, tulips, daffodils, and luscious spring fruit. I remember...
Josie waited a moment for her eyes to adjust when she stepped into the restaurant. Before the sunspots disappeared from her view, she felt warm arms encircle her, and breathed in Kendall's familiar scent. "Hi, you," Kendall said lightly, pressing her lips gently against Josie's sensitive neck. "Hi yourself," Josie breathed, wondering why in the hell she'd...
"Sanaa pick up your phone! Listen, your ex just moved back into town, and... I kind of... by mistake... gave him your number and your momma, not me, gave him your apartment address. I just found out that he came to see you, you bitch. You never tell me anything anymore. Look, I'm driving down now for damage control, I should be there by like 1:00ish this aft...
Broken down on the side of the road was not what Janie had envisioned when she'd left Denver for Seattle, and evening was drawing near. She had little to no mechanical experience and that was why she'd settled on renting a car instead. She'd be calling Enterprise in the morning, if she could only get a cell signal. She held her phone up in the air, praying t...
Prologue The first time I saw Jane, Gerald, and Natalie was at Orient Beach, a clothing-optional beach on my home island of St. Martin where we had taken my brother-in-law Phillipe and his daughter Eleanor for a swim. The three Americans, nudists from Florida, were sunning au naturel. Eleanor struck up a conversation with Natalie, Gerald’s daughter and Ja...
My husband and I were on a weekend trip to Las Vegas for a wedding a few weeks ago, when something happened that changed my way of thinking about sex with another woman. We had the evening to ourselves and were going out for dinner and a show. While walking through the mall area of one of the mega casinos, I spotted a beautiful bar that had red leather cha...
