Inside these pages you'll find (mostly) true stories from some of your favorite authors―including Karin Kallmaker, Radclyffe, Victoria Brownworth, Rachel Kramer Bussel and many more―as well as thrilling true tales from vibrant and powerful new voices.
Stories include a very special five-year anniversary, celebrated out in the open, in the city...a first-time ever experience a mile up in the sky...a first lap dance that turns into ever-so-much more...one neighbor giving another a helping hand, for just one night―or maybe more...a very different sort of erotic tale, told in an entirely different sort of way...a hot drive-in experience between two traveling strangers...a Tuesday night tryst that breaks all the rules...an eagerly anticipated elevator ride...and just your plain-old heart-stopping, one-night stand...

Nice collection of short hot stories by some well known authors. I enjoy a quick story that just needs a few minutes sometimes. Great to read one just before bed. They range from sexy to steamy.
Probably actually a 3.5, because a couple of the stories were quite nice. A bit graphic for my sensitive taste, but a decent collection, with some highlights and weaknesses, which is always the case with a book comprised of short stories written by different authors.
