A Cowboy Christmas: A Billionaire Cowboy Story
A.E. Easterlin - 2019
Christmas marked the date my husband left our home and ran into the arms of his secretary. It happens so frequently and to so many women, it isn’t even interesting anymore. That is, until it happens to you. When it’s your husband asking for a divorce it’s a different story. It took time before I met Logan. Before I cuddled close to him, relieved, happy with my nerves on high. Before he tilted my chin so I could see into his eyes as he bent his head low to kiss me. Slow at first, building the burn, a stealthy kindling that caught fire and I wondered what it would be like to be loved by a man like him.

Indecent
Skylar Cross - 2014

(You know, kind of like how dull boring everyday life is realistic. Seriously, do you want to read about that?)

She decides it is time to take control of her life and start living in the moment. At a whim she jets off to Europe to see the sights and sounds. Unbeknownst to her the trip begins her journey of sexual self-discovery.Sample Of What’s Inside!Just a breath from me, his eyelids dropped closed, and his head tilted so our noses did not collide. After what felt like an incredibly long moment, during which I felt my heart rate triple, his soft, inquiring lips merged smoothly with mine.The second we came together, I experienced a spark; something that had long been dwelling dormant erupted, sending a rampage of warmth to my cheeks. Pulse thrumming in every cell, I felt my fingers begin to tremble as I lifted them to his jacket and clung on for dear life. My reaction was, I know now, disproportionate to what Lance was doing. It wasn’t a frenzied, passionate kiss. It was calm, easy and almost experimental. However, it stoked a fire in my loins that I’d not felt burning for a very long time.
