In the distance a trumpet wailed its sorrow into...
Hello, I'm Sarah. I'm a university student. A student almost at the end of her second year at university. I'm also quite sexually active - and not always from choice!

Genesis Chapter 1 Kyle Masterson drove up the farm road right on schedule. Which, for him, meant he was fifteen minutes early. Though the truck was a new Silverado HD, Kyle appreciated the way it handled. Even with the extended cab and extended bed, the truck was comfortable. Looking around her truck, Emily Williams groaned as she saw the new truck. Thoug...
Chapter Six - Unintended Consequences "So what were you doing in the rose garden?" Emily teased. "None of your business," Valerie smirked. "Well that young man looked very pleased. I'd reckon I'd know that look anywhere. I reckon it was the I've just been fucked look," she grinned. "Well that could be. How was your evening at the Harvest festival Miss Mi...
We loaded the packages in the SUV. Boss Lady took the keys and said "remember lover, I have the hall pass." We laughed as she drove us to the malls covered parking garage. "Not a word out of you, lover." She backed in next to a wall on one side and on the other side was another big SUV. She put sun shades in the front window to block the view from passing ca...
