Sometimes it just slaps you in the face. My wife Janet and I are in our thirties. On the upper end, actually. I'm thirty-nine and Janet is thirty-eight. Janet is pretty in an ordinary way. After twenty years of marriage I'll admit that climbing her bones isn't as alluring as it was when we first married. Hell, I had to check the laundry to see the size bra s...
I pushed the eggs around my plate, while my mind raced. Across from me sat my wife, deep in a book, slowly scooping the food from her plate to her mouth, barely glancing away from the page she was on. In the twenty years of our marriage, this is what we’d come to. We were high school sweethearts, so there was very little of ourselves we hadn’t shared with e...

There are times we journey down paths like sheep, and at times the shepherd's intentions are devious. At 24, Danny was herded like a lamb into a dark valley by a she-wolf then later beaconed from that valley and nurtured by a lonely shepherd's prayers to follow another path in life. Kathy and Danny taught at sister elementary schools and were parishioners o...
In Mary's mind, another summer was vanishing without real incident and the halls of a college a few miles away offered little enchantment for Mary's musing. It was February and nearing the end of summer when the wind and air change as frequently as a woman's fancy but this would be Mary's enchanted season dominated by a reality suddenly appearing right next...
James knew that the sacrificial virgin was a regular at a popular gym and that she was a fitness fanatic that worked out virtually every day. The information also stated that she worked at a high end bookstore called Readable Delights, one of the few independent bookstores still around. He had staked out both the bookstore and and the gym, having gone so far...
Prologue I come home from work on 8th November to find Ava crying inconsolably on our bed, a little piece of white plastic clutched in her fist. "How long have you been here?" I ask gently, taking her in my arms and kissing her loose chestnut curls. She doesn't answer so I ask again, "What time did you take the test?" "At five," Ava hiccups indistinctl...
When Donna walked through the door, Steve blinked. And then he blinked again. The first blink was caused by his surprise at seeing her there; the second was caused by her expression. Something about the way she held herself erect and the quivering chin made him think of death and firing squads. Steve's testicles retracted in fear. The hair on the back of hi...

24 Lis hung out across the street from Nikki's apartment building for over an hour. She knew that the short haired brunette would be finishing a "matinee" as the girls called it and should be home by 4 or 5pm. A "matinee" was the term the girls used for a late lunch rendezvous with a client. Sometimes there was actually a lunch involved but most times it wa...
