To celebrate our seven-year wedding anniversary, my wife and I booked a trip to an all-inclusive resort in Aruba. Between the sunshine and the palm trees, it didn’t take long before the miserable winter weather at home was a distant memory. Along with the...
The next week passed uneventfully. Maddie was still reeling from her breakup, and couldn't bear to see how Darren and Amber were all over each other in public, though she felt that her blackout the previous week in Cassandra's room in the basement had som...
Amy was sitting at home, lounging comfortably in a bathrobe, reading a trashy romance novel when it happened. You might think it odd for an up-and-coming aeronautics research scientist to spend her Saturdays reading smut, but there was something about the...
