His grip tightened slightly on her soft flesh even as she tried to wretch it from his grasp. "Jo, Jo, beautiful Josette..." His words wrapped around her mind, lulling her into calmness, if only for a moment. "You are safe here. I know wha...
It was a Friday night and Danni was spending it how she spent most of her Friday nights; sitting in her tiny apartment writing. As a teenager she liked fantasies and fairy tales, now a young woman in her twenties, she mixed her earlier tastes with that of erotica.

From the moment I met June, I knew she was special. It should have been just an ordinary day like a thousand of them that had gone before.

Twas' a cold wintry night in the mountains of Montana, where Jack's car had stalled near an iced over river.
