We had enjoyed a late lunch in our room and then I spent an hour or so sitting naked out on the balcony overlooking the beach. I don't think I was visible to anyone and if I was I didn't care, I was enjoying myself. As it got later Ed said I should think about getting ready for the evening. I do enjoy a nice long bubble bath and planned on taking one before...
"Do you know why you're late?" I ask, as I lounge in the recliner, dangling a beer bottle from one hand and the handcuffs by the index finger of the other "We had a late meeting, and traffic..." she begins. "No, shut up. You were late because you don't budget your time properly. It's indicative of a much larger problem. You lack discipline. But it's time w...
At 8.45am, Sam was sitting in a rented Ford, in a side street, a short distance from his home. Although he and his wife Beth had played this game before, it never failed to excite him and his nerves jangled as he tried to listen to the radio and waited. Sam and Beth were in their late twenties and had been together for eight years. Life had been good to them...
The limousine pulled up to the exclusive Hotel Lord Byron in Rome. Natasha was gazing out the window at the once patrician villa when a short balding man in a sharply tailored black suit practically dashed to open her door, even before Alejandro could get out of the car and open the door for her. Reaching inside he handed Natasha out of the plush leather in...
Abigail didn't know it was possible to fall in love so quickly. Yet here she was falling deeper and deeper in love with him. Jonathan was quite unlike anyone she'd ever met. He spoke with such confidence and authority; his sexy southern accent practically melted her whenever he called. His creative mind impressed her even though it sometimes kept her off bal...

I came home one afternoon to find the house empty. Then I remembered Diane had a meeting that afternoon for some organization or group she had been volunteering with recently. I grabbed a cold beer out of the fridge, dropped my tie on the kitchen bar and walked out to the pool area. We had just had some work done recently replacing the tinted sliding glass...
To really understand the secrets, you've got to understand the background, so bear with me as I recount the family history before I get to the family secrets. Dad passed away years ago, killed while working on a construction job. He was literally hit by a ton of bricks that were dropped by a drunken crane operator. Mom got all of the Worker's Compensation b...
It was late, about one a.m. in the morning. She was tired, traveling since noon, needed gas and a cup of coffee. She pulled into the little diner slash gas station and stepped out into the cold night air. The scent of gasoline, oil and the pines of the forest surrounding the rural diner drifted to her on the night breeze. The only sounds at this hour were th...
As the first dusky stain of night tainted the sky, I reflected on a day that – so far – had exceeded my wildest dreams. Surreal yet so real, a combination of good fortune, sweet revenge and incredible sex had ensured it would remain in living memory. And there was still Zara and the party to forward to. The air thick with the sort of heat that threatened ne...
