My husband John belongs to a car club, we have a red tee top 1970 Corvette Stingray. I love that car and go to most of the events with my husband and we have met a lot of nice people along the way. Not long ago John wanted to enter the car in competition and asked if I would wear some sexy outfits and model standing with the car to get the judges attention....
It was a family campsite, set around a cove on the Spanish Mediterranean, north of Barcelona. The pitches were under pine trees, essential shade against the hot mid-day sun. There was a beach bar, restaurant, minimart and swimming pool, although why some campers chose the pool above the beach was far beyond me. I would rather have a towel on the sand than...
It has been a week since she heard from Charlie or Steve and she was back to normal with her work and house chores. Sam has been home for a week now and hadn't mentioned about leaving on another business trip. Sunday afternoon relaxing by the pool with the children gone for the weekend Sam tells Gloria that he don't know if his job is secure. He told her...
The log house, simple in it's rustic beauty, sat nestled in a secluded patch of woods at the end of a long and somewhat winding private drive. Wood smoke trickled from the stone chimney, adding the scent of burning birch and conifer to the slightly bittersweet tang of the crisp autumn air. Duncan sat on the top step of the porch leaning back against one of t...

She checked her phone. No private messages. Not a single one. "Yep. Just goes to show, this online app thing? So not a thing." She tossed her phone on her bed and sprawled her body across the down comforter. You see, she had given in. Into her darkness that is. Listened to the inner whispers and the online whispers. Assurances made. Now she questions it all...
I glanced at the heart-rate indicator, and saw 145 climb to 150. I hung my head, closing my eyes, my legs pumping furiously as sweat dripped from my elbows and forearms to the puddles that had already formed on the floor below me. Ten more minutes. The bike would push me through another simulated hillclimb, where I'd probably hit my maximum heart-rate, and...
When you have a firm grasp of the strategy (A careful plan or method for achieving an end.) and tactics ( the art or skill of using available means to reach an end.) an adverse litigator may use against you, you will usually win the case at trial. This was the creed of both my mother and father, who had both spent many years in the prosecutor’s office in Sa...
Sue was looking forward to her 'girls' night out'. It had been too long and John was out of town again on business. Her three friends had all agreed to meet her for drinks and dinner at the 'Beach Café & Grill' in downtown Cardiff since it was a convenient location and now that it was Fall, the tourists would be gone and they should be able to get a good boo...
That morning Kate woke thinking of her husband already asleep halfway across the world. Her mind cleared the cobwebs of another restless and unfulfilling night's sleep and she thought to herself "after 20 years of him traveling on business, you'd think I'd be used to his half of the bed being empty." Funny how she thought of it as "his half" and could never...
