After fifteen years in an unhappy marriage, Catania Wylde is now free to live her life the way she wants. She believes the best way to start her new life is to celebrate her fortieth birthday at the sex club, Anything Goes.

Brother to Cat’s best friend Lisa, Alex Cline spends his days developing applications for smartphones. His nights are spent at his sex club, Anything Goes. He had no idea the club would be so successful when he started it three years ago. Celebrities, politicians, and royalty all come to his club outside of Dallas for a taste of the forbidden.

When Alex finds out the woman he’s lusted after for years wants to visit his club, he decides to make Cat’s visit the most sensual, most fulfilling evening of her life…an evening that he plans to be the start of many nights in his arms.

About the author

I was born and raised in a small town in Texas close to the Dallas/Fort Worth area. Writing has been in my blood since I was eight years old and wrote my first story for an English assignment. The baby of four children, I was spoiled rotten and still am.

I can't imagine ever writing anything but romances. I enjoy writing about two people (or sometimes more than two) falling in love. If you like the story enough to smile in places, shed a tear at times, or get a warm and fuzzy feeling, that is my greatest reward.

Besides writing at every opportunity, I love reading, traveling, scrapbooking, photography, and learning new things on the computer. I'm a software junky and like trying out new programs, especially anything to do with graphics.

I moved back to Texas after living on the West Coast for 21 years, to a small town 17 miles from where I grew up. I live close to my only surviving sister.

When recently divorced Cat gets a complimentary visit to a posh sex club from her best friend for her birthday, she soon learns that ‘anything goes’ means no-limits-fun.

After Cat’s marriage ends, she allows her feelings for her friend, Lisa’s brother, Alex to blossom into a shy, sensual love. What she doesn’t know is that Alex has been in love with her for ages. She also doesn’t realize that Alex and Lisa secretly own, Anything Goes, the sex club she's visiting the night of her birthday.

Cat is having the time of her life with two sexy men in a private room at the club unaware that Alex has plans of his own for her. He has secretly arranged for a switch between him and the men who are with Cat, so he can take their place while she's distracted.

When a playful blindfold is removed from her eyes, Cat is suddenly face to face and alone with Alex. Both of them are naked and in each other’s arms. Her immediate reaction is shock and a feeling of betrayal. To Cat, Alex’s kisses and touch while she was blindfolded were not consensual. Crushed, she jumps up to run.

Will love provide the solution to this awkward experience? How far is too far when ‘Anything Goes’?

Ms. LaFleur has written this blazing hot sensual fantasy with an interesting twist of romantic complexity. From every angle this is a story of increasingly intense erotic adventure for the main characters. The upsetting problem the romantic couple faces adds an emotional bonus of unusual dimension to this already absorbing tale.

I enjoyed every minute of this firmly packed, well written tale. I recommend Anything Goes to anyone in the mood for a quick, entertaining and potent read.

So what do you do when it's your fortieth birthday soon and you've recently got divorced? Try and find the club "Anything Goes" that is more like an Urban Myth. Of course, it does help to wangle an invitation to the members only club if it owned by your best friend and her brother.

Alex likes Cat, Cat likes Alex - they've both liked each other for years but thought that the other one only thought of them as "friends". Plus Cat was married. Now it's all changed!

This is a fun, frolicsome read which although quick, still manages to provide a bit of depth and history to both its characters and the story. I liked the fact that Cat had a bit of fun before Alex turned up.

Recommended for a short, hot read.

Too hot to handle

Omg this is one too hot and to handle story...... "Anything Goes" is literally the way it is most especially when it comes to sex. Intriguing and exciting as you dont get to read stories like this often. I like Cat and Alex secret crushes eventually became reality for them. Just so unconventional but hey maybe there is some men like that....who would watch the woman he loved for years do it with someone else. That is one thing not usual among men, like any being human or animal, they can be territorial and unreasonably jealous.

It's too short to be considered a full story. All Romance has the book listed as 17,000 words.

The story takes place within a few hour time span during Catania's adventure into the Anything Goes Sex Club. Alex is behind the scenes watching is love interest explore. Too quick unless you are looking for some sex scenes for the purpose of get your motor running...then by all means this is perfect.

OMG, I totally loved this book! I'm not into hardcore so I was really surprised reading Anything Goes. I think it had the right amount of sex, lust, and passion. Definitely recommend to my friends and will read more from Lynn!

Cracking little kinky short story

No plot spoilers
No potential triggers
Lots of kinky sex and some swearing
No grammatical or editorial errors that I can recall
What's to say apart from what the blurb has already provided?
The characterisation isn't exceptional but more than engaging considering it's a novella.
Give it a try!

After fifteen years in an unhappy marriage, Catania Wylde is now free to live her life the way she wants. She believes the best way to start her new life is to celebrate her fortieth birthday at the sex club, Anything Goes. This was a hot short story about a women trying to get her groove back by going to a sex club that her best friends brother owns. Alex Cline spends his days developing applications for smartphones. His nights are spent at his sex club. When Alex finds out the woman he’s lusted after for years wants to visit his club, he decides to make Cat’s visit the most sensual, most fulfilling evening of her life…an evening that he plans to be the start of many nights in his arms. I thought that this was a pretty good book the only problem that I had was that it was quick and the ending was abrupt. I thought that the sex scenes were good. This was my first time reading this author and I would recommend this book and hopefully the next book in this series is longer and the ending is better.

2* quick read.
Given the story length, it's perhaps not fair to expect substance (back story, plot twist, etc.). The sex scenes were staged, almost mechanical. Thus, not an engaging read to me.

Intéressant. Une vrai histoire romantique. Une rencontre, un élément déclencheur, un développement logique à son contexte et une fin.
