"I'd love to," he finally answered when he could get the words out calmly. "Is there anything else you'd like tonight?" Joel's question held a double meaning and he knew it. Whatever their little hearts desired, he was game."No, the wine and definitely you," she murmured seductively."Okay, see you in a while." He silently wondered if he was imagining the sound of an invitation in her voice. Maybe tonight he'd get lucky with the two curvaceous beauties. With this thought in mi...

Her thoughts came back to the present as she picked up her handbag. When she arrived at work that morning, she carried a small overnight case in preparation for the party at Josie’s. It contained a skimpy short skirt and an even skimpier blouse that didn’t hide much of her attributes. She hadn’t bothered putting panties or a bra into the case. She decided to change before she left work and put her coat on to cover her erotic costume as she walked through the office to the door.Rob h...

“Well, it looks all right to me, since my main objective is to seduce the handsome hunk in the next room. Are you with me?” She watched her friend’s face for a reaction.“I’ll do anything he suggests,” Lettie volunteered with a sigh.“Let’s go start the fun.” Marin opened the bedroom door and stepped into the hallway. Lettie followed, and when they entered the living room, they were in for a pleasant surprise. Jake stood in the middle of the room wearing a similar paper robe-an...

Josie found out early in life that she felt emotional attachments for both women and men in a relationship, but women held a predominant place in her thoughts. She had always compared her bisexual state to a two way street with her feelings going in both directions; men and women. She never tried to hide her persuasions from Tia. When she met her in college, Josie had asked her to share a dorm with her and Tia readily accepted. By splitting expenses and working nights at the strip club, th...

Jeda glanced across the car seat at Jake Cassidy as he drove his loaded down SUV toward the camping area he had chosen for a week of fun and relaxation. It was a little place in Oklahoma called Oslo Campgrounds way out in a woodsy area. She only hoped they weren't the only campers that week. She always loved interacting with other people.Her thoughts changed as her eyes were drawn to his handsome chiseled profile, but today it held a serious expression as he concentrated on the heav...

"He sent me here to check on you because he's tending the herd taking Mac's place," he told her turning toward the door to leave. "Now that I see you're all right, I'll let you get back to bed."She reached up to lock the door but stumbled forward on a rug. Without warning, Wade found her body pressed closely against his. He started to right her on her feet, but she hadn't moved an inch and her face lifted to his with her eyes locking with his narrowed dark look. A strange expression...

The concept of woman as having a distinctive nature and requiring a separate sphere of activity from that of man was pervasive in the thinking of nineteenth- century Americans. So dominant was this "horizon of expectations" for woman that the imaginations of our finest novelists were often subverted, even as they attempted to expand the possibilities for women through their fiction.Selecting five American writers—James Fenimore Cooper, Nathaniel Hawthorne, William Dean Howells, Hen...

The guy caught her attention quickly. He was some kind of hunk with black hair and a set of brilliant green eyes that looked as if they could penetrate her soul. His stare caught and held her wide violet eyes. She knew believing he could penetrate her soul was a crazy notion, but an odd sensation overwhelmed her. Not only was he a hunk, his broad chest and narrow hips drew her eyes almost compulsively to his muscled body.Something clicked in her that sent her senses reeling. The man...

His eyes widened as he opened the door and stepped into the yard. Rob hadn't been joking; everyone roamed around with drinks clutched in their hands – and not a stitch of clothing! He'd never seen so many nude bodies in his life. Case felt his cheeks flush; he felt so out of place as he looked down at his jeans and polo shirt.As he surveyed the crowd, he couldn't find one person that he knew. He'd thought there might be someone that Rob would have invited from the newspaper, but if ...

As they left the restaurant, a soft breeze swept across the sidewalk enveloping them in its warmth. Jayden reached out and captured Mallie's hand as they walked down the street. He remembered her earlier words. He was in a romantic mood and planned a tender night with Mallie showing her how much he cared.When they stood on the stoop and Jayden inserted the key, he felt, rather than saw someone nearby. This feeling had come over him before, but only when Shay was nearby. He glanced a...

As she picked up her handbag, the phone rang again. She thought about not answering, but in the end thinking it might be Mandy calling back she changed her mind. She lifted the receiver and got the shock of her life.There was no way she didn't recognize the voice on the other end. "Tisha, baby, how you been lately?" Josh Stewart's voice echoed in her ear.Oh no, she moaned inwardly. How in the hell had he found her when she had taken extra precautions to wipe her tracks clean ...
