"Anything yet?" Marcus shook his head. Sophina sighed and leaned back against the alley wall. "Are we going to be here all day? We have to be done by nightfall, you know." "What do you want me to say?" Marcus replied, his eyes still locked on the street in front of him. "Why can't we walk through the city? Surely it will be easier to spot one then." Marc...
She used the key I'd given her to let herself in. I wasn't expecting her so I was sitting on the couch reading James Lee Burke's latest, "The Glass Rainbow." I put the book down and gave her an appreciative look. She was drop dead gorgeous and the sexiest looking woman I had ever laid eyes on. She was the kind of woman that a star had on his arm at the Acade...
We sat at the table, her holding my hand me bawling like a baby. "Clarence stop it now. I mean it. It is not the end of the world. I told you because I love you. I do not want to lose you. I do not want you finding out the wrong way about; well, about the things I am doing with Marcus," she said. I'm sure she thought her tone was supportive, but she was kill...

My problem was her mother, a real dragon who hated me more than anything else and never missed an opportunity to be nasty to me. Of course, I wasn't a genuine good guy, fa...
The Courtship Road, is a little rough I borrowed a plot device in this story from DanielQSteel's A Moment of Clarity, but as he is a better writer than me, I'm sure he won't mind. I read his stuff some years ago, am rereading them now, and find they are as good or better in the re-reading. I recommend his work to you all. Pandybear311 did a fine job editing...
This story is inspired by a real event. A couple split up, but they had this elaborate trip booked. The man didn't want to give up the reservations for the fantastic voyage they had planned, so he posted an online ad looking for women who shared his ex-girlfriend's name and a valid Canadian passport. Several women answered; one was selected to join him on hi...
Karen and I had been dating for two years and living together for one of them. We're both reasonably attractive in a twenty-something sort of way--no one's wet dream, but we only had eyes for each other, and our sex life was fairly active, if not wildly varied. We were amusedly tired of the mutterings about grandkids from our parents and, so, decided it was...
The man sat on the end of the gangway of the 50 foot yacht. He was working on one of the heavy docking lines for the yacht. He heard the sound of heels clicking on the dock. He tugged on a strand of the line; the end of the strand was tightly wrapped with tape to keep it from unraveling. He heard the heels get closer, he didn't look up. He was just starting...
