“And⁄Or” was published in Forum [UK] magazine in 2008.
“Do you always work as a team?”
Jill giggled, and Marissa licked her lips. “Team, nothing,” she said. “You’re looking at a sophisticated, highly versatile, two-component stud-seducing machine.”
“A well-oiled machine,” Jill added. Both girls cracked up at that. I grinned, too, though half my brain was still reeling from hearing myself described as a “stud.”
Sex & Shoes (ed. Lori Perkins) includes “Showstopper.”
Ravenous Romance (e-book, 2008).
“I want to tap dance naked for you,” said Melinda.
“Yes! I feel the same way,” I reciprocated with zest. I thought she was articulating a creative metaphor, one whose whimsy evoked the euphoria of erotic love.
“No, I really do.” Melinda, it turned out, had taken tap lessons before we’d met, and she’d been speaking literally. She still had the shoes somewhere, she said.
“The Golden Latke” was published at Ruthie’s Club in 2008. [Paid membership required.]
“I haven’t been with a man in a while,” Joyce confessed just inside the door to her room.
“Don’t worry,” said Bernie. “It’s like riding a—er, it’s okay.”
Joyce giggled, sounding tipsier than she was. “How do you expect me to stay in the mood if you’re constantly making me laugh?”
“Making you laugh is precisely how I’m hoping to keep you in the mood.”
“Being Myself” was published at Clean Sheets in 2008.
I stammered an unnecessary drink order to an impatient bartender. Pink smiled at me after the bartender had slammed down my two-dollar club soda and skulked away. “He really wasn’t into getting you that club soda,” she said sympathetically. Her voice was higher than I’d expected, more sweet than sultry.
“I don’t even like club soda,” I said peevishly. Then I laughed idiotically and explained: “It was the first thing that came to mind.”
“You’re a goofball,” she pronounced, making it sound like it was half compliment.
Satisfy Me audio collection 1 includes “Any Friend of Hers.”
Ultimate Burlesque audio collection 2 includes “Laura the Laugher.”
Tease Me audio collection 2 includes “Bathing Minerva.”
“Ménage à Denim” was published at Ruthie’s Club in 2008. [Paid membership required.]
The relationships were compartmentalized, weren’t they, thought Dina. Like the pockets of her favorite pair of jeans ... Keys, rigid and ready, always in the right pocket. Soft, fresh tissues, always in the left.
Seriously Sexy 3 (ed. Miranda Forbes) includes “Who’s Been Wearing Aunt Clarrisa’s Panties?”
Xcite Books (2008), ISBN-13 978-1906125905.
With giddy ruffles decorating her topography, she looked like a carnival, like a feast. I relished the prospect of fondling every bit of lace, of letting her feel my fingers through the soft interface of the alluring garment.
She paraded in front of the bed, sweetly and shyly, with only a hint of exhibitionistic flair. She spun and shimmied, letting me enjoy the aerodynamic sizzle of the fluttering ruffles, which reminded me of the thin metal jingles on a tambourine. How I wanted to play Megan’s percussion!
Never Have the Same Sex Twice (Alison Tyler) includes “Le Petit Déjeuner.”
Cleis Press (2008), ISBN-13 978-1573443326.
As we make love, I imagine that we are back in Paris. That there is a bidet in our bathroom. That people are speaking French on the sidewalk below. That around the corner is the little pharmacy where I had to resort to an earthy pantomime to indicate that I required a box of condoms. Where the pharmacist, a handsome woman of about thirty-five with dark, humorous eyes, smiled knowingly at me when I paid for them.
