Walls
Some walls can't always protect you. A young woman learns that after confronting a man she's been watching, scoping, for a few weeks. Assuming an identity she finds on a business card, her interests are purely carnal as she walks with this handsome stranger along the Virginia Beach boardwalk on a hot July night. But when the watcher becomes the center of attention from an surprising viewer, will the realization bring down the very walls she's built up around herself or add another layer?

I bet Bridget Midway was the kid that every other kid in English class hated to go after because they knew their stories would pale in comparision. Her A's were guaranteed to ruin the curve for the rest of the class.
Most erotica authors will attempt to throw in a romantic subplot, when all they really want to do is make their readers squirm and giggle with naughty delight. While many romance authors feeling the increased pressure to spice things up, will attempt to turn up the heat index in their stories so they can stay current within a everchanging industry. Quite often, most of these authors fail to truly merge the two genres. In turn the reader and both genres suffer.
Well guess what, Bridget Midway, knows what she wants to write and in this particular story, she's not interested in crossing boundaries or merging genres. To put it plain and simple, Bridget Midway writes erotica. But more importantly, Bridget Midway knows how to write erotica.
Bridget Midway's short story "Walls" (Phaze) reminds readers exactly what erotica is about. Sex, plain and simple. Her heroine loves it when it's done with finesse and with a man with a clue. Endures it with those that don't and fantasizes about it with Carl, the man she's been stalking at the diner for some time.
Written in the first-person, you know exactly how the unnamed heroine feels and what she thinks about men, sex and being real about how you feel. In the time that it takes to get away from your family while they watch some syndicated sitcom for the umpteenth time, I devoured "Walls." The writing was as too the point, pull-no-punches as its heroine. Walls left me as the reader dumbfounded. My jaw hanging open speechless, but for reason that most of you would not expect. Yes, it was all that the genre should be, but better than that, it had an ending that was not only unpredictable, but that left me screaming at Ms Midway's cunning.
Available for download through e-publisher Phaze, "Walls" is well worth the money and time spent. I eagerly await Bridget Midway's first full length mass market paperback, I'll be among the first readers running to the bookstore to purchase it.
