Unknown United States location
Laura comes home from work early
one night to surprise her husband. To her shock, she’s the one
who ends up being surprised when she discovers her husband,
Richard, having sex with her sister. Devastated, Laura goes to
the one person she can trust…her good friend Daniel. As she
pours out her soul and he comforts her, it soon becomes apparent
that the time has come for Laura and Daniel to be more than just
friends.
A CERTAIN WAY is a short story of
despair that turns into a celebration of freedom for Laura.
During her marriage to Richard, she always did as he told her,
because everything had to be “a certain way.” Now it’s time for
Laura to break that mold and become a woman for herself…and to
find her true love in Daniel, who’s stood by her through thick
and thin.
Certainly hot, but A CERTAIN WAY is
also a story that will leave you smiling at Laura’s new
beginning.

Elisia
Moore’s husband, Stephen has been dabbling in the dark arts, but
when he creates a dangerous potion, Elisia realizes she’s had
enough. Before her marriage, she had been a Mistress, but
decided to explore her submissive side with Stephen.
Unfortunately, his dominant personality extended to verbal and
emotional abuse, and she decides it’s time to move on. Before
she can do so though, Elisia knows that she has to check on
Stephen to make sure he is still contained at his lab. When the
monster that Stephen has become attacks her, Elisia is saved by
the sexy warrior, Ramara, who shows her that her libido is not
as dead as she had previously thought.
A highly

Monica will be the Mistress, and hopefully they’ll be able to
