erotic romance that breaks a few rules
The Flavor of Summer

    After 10 years, David has one chance
to claim his dream girl. Ariel wants to be
dominated:  bound, spanked, teased,
fucked. To keep her happy, he’ll have to
learn fast and give up vanilla sex
forever.

        The first time David saw Ariel, she was pinned against the lockers,
being finger-fucked by a football player – and smiling.  He never forgot
that smile.  But he let her get away.   

   Ten years later, a summer class reunion brings him another chance.  
Ariel is still beautiful, free and erotically unpredictable; David, even in his
own mind, is dull as dry toast.  She wants to be sexually dominated – by
him.  He'd be happy just to get laid.  But with the help of the Internet, an
experienced Dom who's willing to give advice, and Ariel's drawer full of
toys, he'll take a shot at being everything she wants and needs.  
   
   Twenty-four hours of submission, bondage, erotic toys and one old-
fashioned spanking convince David that Ariel's sexual preferences suit him
perfectly.  But if they're going to stay together, they'll have to deal with
other issues:  The suffocating summer heat.  The specter of Ariel's free-
love past.  The disapproval of their old classmates.  Their mutual
insecurities.  And maybe the most important question:  Can a dedicated
tax accountant really be happy with a woman who never balances her
checkbook?

   Whatever happens, the flavor of their summer isn't going to be vanilla
any more.
