The Lady Wants More

Janet Baxter keeps her post-divorce life neatly compartmentalized: Secure job, spacious Westchester County home, successful adult children, dependable community volunteer activities. Why is she drawn – for the first time ever – to attend her twenty-year college reunion in New York City?

Always a free spirit, Brenda Cassidy is comfortably bisexual and has no plans to ever settle down. But a fling? The reappearance of svelte, reserved Janet Baxter in Brenda’s life is nothing less than a gift, worthy of every enticement Brenda can conjure up. Can Brenda seduce Janet into an endless night of the lovemaking they enjoyed too briefly as college roommates? What if the lady wants more? 


Who's the Coach?

She wants the real thing, and she want to share it with Brett. Addition sounds so much better than subtraction.

Will the swing lifestyle be the answer they're seeking? They're determined to find out.

Take on a newbie couple? Intrigued by the fact that both partners are bi, Brett and Jen Andrews accept the request of a much younger couple to mentor them into the swing lifestyle. The tables are quickly turned when the new couple pushes boundaries and fulfills fantasies Brett and Jen only dreamed of!

Across the series thus far, Brett has gradually figured out he, too, might be bisexual. Both partners in this new couple turn out to be bi and are thrilled to initiate Brett into some hot M/M action. New three- and four-way combinations are suddenly opened up for all four participants.

Genre(s): Erotic Romance, GLBTQ, Menage / Multiple Partners
The idea of this book is great. I love a good sexy swingers story but I felt that I could not relate to the characters well because they were older, in their 60’s older. I know that a lot of people look so much younger these days and that many people act way younger than they are, but I am no where near 60 so it was hard for me to imagine what these people looked like and what their skin felt like. I ju

This book is excellent. I love the idea of the Goddess of Love teaching this couple how to love and accept love. The characters are normal people, just a normal couple with normal issues and the Goddess is well a Goddess, so she is not normal but she is still incredibly sexy and confident. The plot moves along quickly, there are all kinds of things happening in this book, so be prepared for it. The one thi

Joy Danser really wants to believe in Santa. As the person in charge of the Santas for the local mall, she requires that they be as authentic as possible. This includes real beards, although they can die them white if needed. She just loves the Christmas season and can hardly wait until it is time to put up the decorations. Her boyfriend of the last 2 years is just not what she wants long-

A Gift for Adam was a very fast read and entertaining read. It’s a short at around 70 pages and just perfect for a short break.   Evie made a gag Christmas gift for Christie, her best friend, of seven embroidered thongs, but then accidentally switched the wrapped present with the tie she’d picked out for Adam at work, a notorious womanizer. When he opens it at the company Christma

This was an interesting short piece that was kind of like a slim slice of strawberry shortcake - piquant, sweet, and yet ever so tantalizing. I went away from this with the over-whelming urge for more. I felt that the concept of energy work was interesting, but Adrianna Kraft should have explored the idea more. As it was, I vaguely felt that it was only a plot device. This story would have benefited from more
