Dear Reader,
Iâm a big fan of dreaming. I dream up stories. I dream up excuses. I dream up wild scenarios in which delicious chocolate is fat-free, killer heels donât hurt my feet and money really does grow on trees.
In other words, I spend a great deal of time in a fantasy land. Which is why I was so excited when my editor suggested I write a Forbidden Fantasy. Whatâs better than a fantasy, after all? Especially a fantasy thatâs naughty and off-limitsâ¦.
And thatâs exactly what Drucilla decides her vacation-fling fantasy will beâvery, very naughty. Especially when she meets surfer boy Alex, a guy whoâs so much more than he seems.
If youâre on the Internet, please drop by my Web site at www.tawnyweber.com and let me know what you think of Drucilla and Alexâs story. While youâre there, check out my blog, vote for the hunk of the month or enter my current contest. Iâd love to hear from you.
Enjoy,
Tawny Weber
âSOOO? How was your date?â
Drucilla Robichoux froze, her spoonful of lemon yogurt halfway to her mouth. Sheâd been dreading this question.
Wrinkling her nose, she shot a quick glance around the labâs lunchroom. Sunlight, filtered through typical San Francisco fog, dully lit the empty space. Seeing no escapeâand fortunately nobody to overhearâshe sighed, licked the tart yogurt from the spoon and prepared to confess.
âI think Iâd be better off giving up on men,â she admitted to her best friend and fellow scientist, Nikki Hanson. âThis is the sixth failed dating experiment this year. And itâs only August.â
âI canât say Iâm surprised. I still canât believe you went on more than one date with Dr. Uptight,â Nikki said as she polished off her pastrami sandwich. She meant Bryan Smith-Updike, a physicist from the Lawrence Livermore Lab and Drucillaâs companion the last four Saturday nights. The first three, theyâd attended the theater, the opera and the California Academy of Sciences. Sheâd been bored to death, but not nearly as bored as sheâd been during the sex thatâd marked their fourth weekend.
âIt wasnât much of a date,â Dru admitted. âThe guy was a gasper.â
âThatâs even worse than the wheezer. What was his name? Mad-scientist Maxwell?â
âNo, he was the counter. You know, in-two-three. Out-two-three. The wheezer was that biochemist I dated last year.â
âMaybe gasping is a step up?â Nikki asked, her doubtful wince making her dimples flash. âBut at least Uptight finally dropped drawers, right?â
âUnfortunately,â Drucilla confirmed with a grimace. She puffed out her cheeks, contemplated the last few bites of yogurt, then shoved it aside and opened her bag of cut vegetables.
She lamented the sad truthâ¦. Her love life was in an unending downward spiral of suckiness.
Drucilla wanted to love sex. Better yet, she wanted a sex life worth loving. She was a firm believer in maintaining a healthy balance between mind and body. Her mind was top-notch and she worked to keep her body the same. Good food, regular exercise. And sex, dammit. Sheâd read plenty of studies that claimed that regular, satisfying sex was important to good health. And she was missing out.
Maybe self-gratification would be enough if she increased her beta-carotene intake?
âSo the date didnât go well?â Nikki nudged, obviously wanting all the dirty details.
Drucilla popped a cherry tomato in her mouth and debated blowing off the question. Then, realizing it couldnât sound any worse than the wheezer confessionâalways nice to have a rock bottomâshe shrugged.
