The Divas Pen

Lauren eased down into liquid warmth. The floating fragrant bubbles popped and fizzed around her. She sighed as ripples of rushing waters shot from the jets and worked their magic over her achy thighs. She wished she could sit on a jet and let it cool the tender spots of her sex. The man had [...]

Dylan parked in front of her cottage. Lauren kept rubbing her hands up and down the tops of her thighs. She had wanted to invite him to stay. But she couldn’t bring herself to say it. Then he through the door open and got out, the moment was lost.
Dylan came over to her side. Holding [...]

The wait was the worst of it. Every delayed minute a tortuous twist of his frayed nerves. He filled the endless time with business calls at first. Graduated to emails on his black berry next, then practiced deleting numbers of women he intended never to call again. He reorganized web apps and downloaded a few. [...]

Lauren stretched and rolled to her back. She’d forgotten how uncomfortable the sofa was. She and Monty avoided it like the plague; they wouldn’t even allow guests to sleep on it. “Owe,” she groaned, her joints bundles of overstressed knots that coiled the tightest at the base of her spine down through the back of [...]

A Kiss From A Rose on The Gray
“Why was she there? Ay Dios Mios! Why? We don’t take Muffin to the fields, never!” Maria clasped her hands together as if in prayer. The old woman released a deep guttural groan, symbolic of the suffering all four shared. Dylan cast his weary gaze to Lauren. Things [...]

A breeze blew in cooling her skin, tossing her locks back from her shoulders. She set her glass of wine on the picnic table, and peaked up under long lashes [...]

“Stop!” Dena shoved hard with palms flat. Chet’s broad shoulders absorbed the force, his body remained glued to hers. Turning her face, she tensed as his kisses—tender as they were—continued over her cheekbone and under her chin. “I said stop!” she shoved again, this time forcing her hands between. Chet released her, with a smug [...]

Lauren held tight. Her fingers ached in their joints, but her grip was steady. It needed to be, the ladder had claimed at least one near casualty since she bought the vineyard. That was one too many. She tested her weight on the rung beneath then descended the 20-foot tall ladder carefully, one foot [...]

He stumbled down the dark hall—hands to the wall. Thankfully the bathroom was only a few paces from his room. The rain is what woke him. Tiny torpedoes were what they were.
