Illicit Affairs is a compilation of
three erotic tales with women giving into their darkest desires and pursuing
the forbidden.
Unexpected
Journey by Jo Matthews
Sarah thought she met her soul mate in
Mitch Chandler. High school sweethearts, they married right after graduation.
Eight years later, he is a stranger to her and their marriage is on the rocks.
In a halfhearted attempt to placate her, Mitch suggests a trip to Hawaii, but
schedules a business meeting to write off the expense.
Aaron Johnson, Mitch’s friend and
business partner, agrees to help with the presentation and plans are made for
all three to go. What happens when Mitch backs out at the last minute to spend
a romantic weekend with his secretary, forcing Aaron’s hand so that he has to
accompany Sarah alone?
Will an innocent friendship turn into
something more as Aaron’s attraction for Sarah grows? How will Sarah manage
when she realizes that Aaron is awakening feelings in her that she’s never felt
before? The sexual tension burns hot as these two embark on an unexpected
journey that neither are prepared for.
Excerpt
The flight to San Diego was quick,
though the one to Hawaii was considerably longer. Somewhere over the Pacific,
Sarah fell asleep; the day had obviously taken a toll on her emotions and
exhausted her. I wasn’t really tired myself, so I grabbed a magazine from the
caddy in front of me and started flipping through it. Not ten minutes later,
she shifted in her sleep and leaned over, her head resting on my shoulder.
I froze in place, unsure of what to do.
Part of me was screaming to wake her up or at least move her, while the other
part of me—the part that tended to take over in any man when there was a sexy
goddess nearby—wanted me to savor the moment. I must have warred with myself
for three minutes straight until I decided it didn’t matter. There was no harm
in letting Sarah sleep on my shoulder on a plane to Hawaii. No harm at all,
considering her husband was the one who put us on the flight together.
Unable to resist any longer, I turned
my head into her hair and breathed in her intoxicating scent. She smelled like
wildflowers and sunshine, and I couldn’t help but inhale more deeply as I
closed my eyes.
About the Author:
Jo Matthews is an
Arizona native, where she lives with her husband and son. A stay-at-home mom
since 2007, she only recently discovered her love and passion for the written
word. When she’s not writing, she’s usually knee deep in editing—an aspect she
thoroughly enjoys.
As an editor she has propelled quite a few authors
into the published world, and with her skills, has landed several stories on
Amazon’s Top Sellers lists.
Annie Murphy had the picture perfect
life. A beautiful home, a wonderful son, and a husband who adored her. It was
every woman’s dream until her husband of over twenty years came out of the
closet, leaving her a forty-five year old divorcee struggling to regain her
confidence. Needing a distraction, she agrees to allow her son’s friend, Jamie,
to spend the summer at her house while working as an intern. When Jamie, the
cute female intern she’d been expecting turns out to be Jaime, the hot
male intern with abs to drool over, it kicks Annie’s fantasies into overdrive.
When she realizes that her desires are not one sided, it’s more than the
temperature that causes some hot summer nights.
Excerpt
It seemed like forever before he finally made his way back downstairs, and I heard him rummaging through the fridge for something before he walked into the den carrying some homemade chocolate mousse. I moved to the main sofa, sitting down next to him so we were both within reach of the dessert.
“I hope you don’t
mind, but I made this before dinner. I have a bit of a sweet tooth.” He grinned
at me as he took a bite. I smiled back and dipped my spoon in, groaning at the
amazing taste that exploded in my mouth when I took my first bite.
“Oh, god, Jaime,
you’re going to make me fat if you cook like this all the time,” I laughed.
When I heard no reply, I looked next to me, seeing Jaime staring at my lips
with—if I wasn’t completely misinterpreting it—a look of lust in his eyes.
“Oh, um, I’m sorry?”
He seemed confused.
“I just said that
you’re going to make me fat if you keep cooking like this.”
“You don’t have to
worry about that, Annie. You have an amazing figure if you don’t mind me
saying.” I was surprised by his comment. It had been a long time since anyone
had complimented me like that.
“Oh, well, um…thank
you, Jaime,” I replied, embarrassed.
We finished off the
dessert, both of us silently deciding to stay on the couch next to each other
by settling back as Jaime changed the channel to watch an old movie. It was
nice to sit with someone and not feel the need to fill the air with unnecessary
conversation. Jaime was easy to just be with, and I was once again glad it had
turned out to be a male houseguest instead of a female.

chances?
Excerpt
Staring into my eyes, he lowered his
head. I could have moved, spoken, coughed…anything, but instead I lifted my
chin and allowed him to kiss me.
At first it was chaste, it really was,
but when I didn’t pull away, he didn’t either. I felt his tongue poke from
between his velvet lips and lick over my lower one. I gasped, and he used that
opportunity to find his way into my mouth. As my body began to shake, I
groaned. I had to stop this. If I didn’t, I’d end up having sex with him—a
total stranger. I knew that because I was ovulating, if I did sleep with him,
there was a good chance that I’d become pregnant.
I’d become pregnant.
I had stiffened up at my epiphany,
causing him to pull back. “Oh, shit. I’m sorry. I shouldn’t have done that.”
My mind was racing with the possibility
of becoming pregnant tonight. I could go home to Bill in the morning and he and
I could have sex. He’d think the baby was his, and maybe it would be, I
reasoned with myself. He’d never know and our marriage would be fixed.
