This book is the first of what should be many collections of erotic and sensual stories. In this collection are a total of four stories, two of which are short, extremely erotic and highly descriptive stories of single events. The other two are more of novellas showing more detail and leaving the end open for more chapters. These last two stories may become collections or even a novel of their own.
