INITIATIVE: TALES OF EROTIC BOLDNESS
By: Emerald
The Plot:
Sizzling Stories of Sexual Grit and Satisfaction
From audacious proposals to firsttime
exploits to newfound inner confidence,
taking initiative delves into the
risqué in these thirteen smoldering tales.
An accidental catalyst invokes a bold
move in ―Fulfillment,‖ while the brassiness
in ―Shift Change‖ belongs entirely to
narrator Stacey. ―Who‘s on Top?‖ sees a
meeting between fans of rival baseball
teams turn into a game of chance and
wits, and ―The Beast Within‖ offers a present-day ―Beauty and
the Beast‖ rendition that puts a twist on ugliness, beauty, pain,
and pleasure—and the surprising ways they can intertwine.
Sometimes brazen, sometimes subtle, the initiatives between
these pages always showcase the erotic and how it can
both inspire and evoke our most emboldened selves.
An Excerpt
―So, June.‖ His eyes shifted to the midway. ―Can I interest
you in a Ferris wheel ride?‖
I hid a smile. Travis was looking to break the ice. He didn‘t
understand yet that there was no ice with me—it was long since
melted, the water cool and inviting and just waiting for an occupant.
Come on in, sweetheart, the water’s fine.
I leaned toward him almost imperceptibly. ―Actually, the Tilt
-A-Whirl‘s a little more my speed.‖
There was the slightest of pauses before he gave an agreeable
nod and gestured toward the midway. The ambiguity of this reception
fueled the desire in me, and arousal coiled in my stomach
as I fell into step beside him, my borrowed black boots striking
the pavement rhythmically.
