We'd grown tired, our kids were in middle school, we were in our 40's and it seemed that life was mostly a series of chores. Even vacations with the kids, while a lot fun, were a lot of work. Perhaps the scariest thing was that we'd stopped making time for each other, even the weekly date night got cancelled more often than not. Mary gets all the credit for...
Mandy strolled into Robert's office trying unsuccessfully to conceal her excitement. "All ready for tonight Robert? I can't wait for our meal, you know I love Italian. Why won't you tell me where we're going? I need to know so I can pick an outfit!!" Robert ginned across the room at Mandy with the spark in his eye which only Mandy understood. "You'll just...
Dani The closer we got to Alan's restaurant, the more nervous I became. This was happening. After a lifetime, I was going to see my first love. The limo pulled into the parking lot of 'Ryder's Bar and Grill'. When our driver, surprisingly, an older woman, opened our door, all I could do was sit. It was like I was in a trance, couldn't move. My mind went bac...
It should go without saying, but reading the previous entries to this series helps understand what is going on. I appreciate any comments and ratings you all leave, and I appreciate the follow and favorite votes. Dr. Shevade found herself nervous at the prospect of seeing Detective Riley again.

An expensive, tr...
The lighting in the room was perfect, not dark enough so I couldn't see, but warm, cosy and sexy. Heather had lit candles around the room, lighting the bed with a warm orange glow. The deep orange light danced with the shadows on the wall, the feint crackling of the candles burning. I walked over to the balcony door searching for my treasure when I heard a v...
“I’m sorry Kathy, I can’t go.” It was the words I dreaded to hear but had actually expected. “I’m really sorry but a week is just too long to get away right now.” My friend was right, we really didn’t think she was going to be able to come with me on the trip, but I had no one else to invite. You see, I am a widower of 4 years, my husband died in a car acc...
Chapter 36 "Oh, gawd," Lucia groaned as she waddled bow-legged into the motel room. "The bike is fun but man, crouching like that for hours takes its toll." "That won't be good for the baby. You'd better get your kicks now on that crotch-rocket before it grows big." "Uh, what?" Sibyl blinked a moment, then realized the not-so-subtle double-entendre that...
Day 6 Going Diving I was hurting pretty good when I woke up but at least I was awake. No one else on the boat was up including Bob. I nudged him a couple of times before he started to stir. I slid over him and out since I had to go to the head, bathroom for you landlubbers. After spending a good part of the day before naked, it didn’t seem that important...
You picked me up from work, one of our normal lunchtime meetings, although neither of us knew it. This was going to be completely different. We got our food, and went back to the house, I noticed that you were wearing your long brown coat, and wondered what was underneath. We walked into the house, and I went into the kitchen, to get plates and cutlery. You...
