Faith sat at her computer, staring at the chat room in a somewhat dazed state. Drew dumped her, why would he do that? They were going to get married at the end of the month, maybe it was cold feet and he would come back to her, maybe he just wanted to see if she would wonder away from him emotionally. She didn't know, so she did the only thing she could, an...
The fired glowed softly on the hearth, bathing the aged oak floors in warmth and color. Multicolored pillows still lay mounded across the floor before the fire, and the tall triple pane windows still stood sentinel over the room. She never explained the chains and hooks located around the ceiling, and her children nor guests had ever asked. The old rocker he...
Five crisp one hundred dollar bills rest on the faded brown surface of the hotel bedside table. ** It's always the same with Billy. A little over an hour, and few, if any, words are spoken. It's sixteen steps from the elevator to the room, room 214, his favorite room because he's superstitious like that. He leaves the deadbolt open so the door doesn't shu...

As you stare in the mirror you take in your figure, as always you are displeased with how you look, you dislike the extra weight you carry but are told by friends that this could be sexy to the right person, but where is this guy who is passionate about you are, who will desire nothing more than to make intimate love to you exactly the way you are without ev...
I am 41 and married, not happily. While I do love my husband, our physical relationship has broken down completely. He has his own company, works very long hours and is often too tired for any kind of fun in the bedroom. I also have a demanding job and I have to travel often - typically across Europe and occasionally the States and South America. On these...
37 days. 888 hours. 53,280 minutes. Give or take a few. That's how long they'd been apart. Not that long really, in the grand scheme of things. A blip of time. A paragraph in a novel. Five weeks and some change. It wasn't a lifetime. But it felt that way. To her. The way her heart ached for its other half had seemed unbearable at the time. Still, she had...
In writing for Mormon Chicks stories I get feedback from Mormon women telling me about their affairs. These usually aren't enough to tell a full story. I've decided to take a few from the inbox and put them on the site. ***** PRIVATE FEEDBACK FROM ALMA - June 2014 Love your Mormon Chick stories. I can't remember what I was looking up online that led me to...
The company I work for requires me to work very late to meet some of our clients deadlines. It was during one of these crunch times for a client that they put me up in a hotel close to the office to accommodate the 16 hour days. On this particular project they sprung for hotel rooms for everyone who lived too far away to drive safely hour after putting it to...
With all my continuous personal problems I made up my mind, when I entered college that I would have a plan. This worked to my advantage; I studied hard; I took the classes that I needed, graduated with a degree in accounting and picked up extra courses that I thought would help with my career in the postal service. After exactly one year working in odd, cl...
