Wanton Wives #1

Of Love and Lust

WARNING: This SHORT STORY contains graphic, explicit sex and is only suitable for 18+.

At Lord and Lady Quinton's now annual summer house party, sexually neglected and frustrated wives finally find their fulfillment.

Piers and Judith, Lord and Lady Lipscombe have been married for four years, but their beddings have never been more than quick, five-minute affairs intended to secure the line. After being too rough and randy on their wedding night, he's always been afraid of hurting her again, so he held himself back. She thought their marriage was normal, until she saw the lustful looks continually passed between the Quintons. Could there be something more?

A very fun and hard ride (no pun intended). I squeezed it into my evening instead of starting a new full length read. I would have actually enjoyed it a little longer but we do get to enjoy them at their best. The four year misunderstanding was a shame and to think all they had to do was communicate. The good part is at least they were given the opportunity to fix things between one another.

Piers and Judith are observed in a hallway by Lord Holbrook, who makes a suggestive comment toward Judith, if given a longer length it would have been interesting to see the mischief he could have stirred up. I love a good villain but as this book is an erotica you should have an idea of what takes center stage. It is both hot and steamy and as the couple are already married it is a little romantic to think of them discovering this new aspect of their relationship. Thanks for loan RF. Enjoy!
