My husband, Luke, and I were spending the weekend with a big group of our closest friends. There were sixteen of us in all so we renting a huge cabin in the Blue Ridge Mountains. It was absolutely gorgeous. The cabin was six-thousand square feet with a gigantic kitchen, movie theater, multi-level deck, and of course, an incredible view of the mountains. We had been meeting like this every year since college and now that a...

“They’re not here,” read the text from my pal Greg that was the first sign of trouble on my wedding day. Greg, a grad student who worked part-time as a limo driver, had gone to pick up my bride Julia and her bridesmaid Marcy from Marcy’s condo. “What do you mean not here?” I texted back, my heart starting to race. “Literally. The girls are gone. The lady next door thinks she heard them leave around noon,” came the reply....

I always thought Sue was hot but had never done anything about it. She had been a great friend for many years now. Just last week though that all finally changed, and boy what a change! Just for a little history first...Sue and I had worked together for years now. We had always been close, and I suppose you could say we had a special bond. Living together and working together made us this way. I always looked at her diffe...

Dan was close to six-foot-four and was strikingly handsome for a middle-aged guy. He was also very married and so I was relegated to wishful thinking when it came to getting to really know Dan. I had been divorced for several years and while I did manage to find a boyfriend, who kept me happy most of the time, our relationship was tenuous at best. Still, I could never really get Dan out of my mind.Dan was the husband of m...

"Call me if you need anything. I'll have my phone on the entire weekend."My mother-in-law gave me a hug and pushed me on my way. I was so nervous, but needed a release. My husband had died a year and a half before, leaving me a single mom to a small child. Surely I deserved a weekend for adult time, but leaving my child was such a hard thing to do."I'll call when I can. Mommy loves you Ry Ry, be good for grandma and poppy...

Jeremy and I had been friends for what seemed like forever. There was no doubt in anyone’s mind that we were best friends. We would do anything for each other and supported one another in everything we did. So when Jeremy came out of the metaphorical closet, I was happy for him. We had talked about his feelings on sexuality many times and I knew how uncomfortable hiding it made him.But, after he came out and wasn’t hiding...

“Mare? I’m home early, baby. I couldn’t stop thinking about what we talked about last night,” Jason yelled up the stairs.I was now in a full panic. Diego and Miguel had just dropped huge loads on my face and I had’t even finished washing it off yet when I heard Jason coming up the stairs. I had made a big promise the night before and now I didn’t know how I would keep it. I was completely drained from being fucked so thor...
