Romance | Romance Erotica Sensual

In the heart of Toronto the Long siblings own and run Pulled Long Café. Ian, the youngest and only male is the coffee connoisseur, Sadie the middle sibling is the baker, and Paige as the oldest is responsible for managing the business itself. Each of these siblings has had a rough time of it finding love. LONG SHOTS is an anthology of their three stories: Double Shot, A Shot in the Dark, Pulled Long. As Double Shot begins Sadie has just arrived at Mavericks a local sex club to meet with her best friend Paul. Sadie has lusted after Paul for years and had to watch him date a long line of girls including her friend Rachel. Paul Williams runs Mavericks and he has decided it's time to get Sadie in there to see there is more to him then just friendship. Paul brings Sadie to the club to cater an event and figures once she is there for the party he is going to make all her fantasies come true. Sadie is uncomfortable at the club but mostly because she begins to fantasize what Paul and his boss Josh could do with her. In A Shot in the Dark we learn that Paige has deep dark secrets which include her taste for hard, hot D/s scenes. Fireman Carter West comes into the café and Paige is attracted to him and when she learns he is a Dom she is torn. She is completely turned on and has a deep longing to have Carter as her Dom but her one and only D/s relationship turned abusive and Paige fears she won't be able to give the complete trust to another again. When Paige opens up to Carter she realizes there might be a chance for her after all until her ex Rick shows up demanding to be let back into her life and bed. In Pulled Long we find Ian working much too hard and much too alone. Ian's last relationship ended badly with Kyle blaming Ian for corrupting him. Ian has promised himself he will never be with another man who is unsure about his sexuality. So when his favorite customer "Blue eyes", Jeff Caron reveals he is in the midst of a divorce Ian shuts down the flirtation. Then one night when Ian is working late on inventory Jeff shows up and Ian realizes the thrill of exhibitionism with Jeff is the hottest thing he has ever explored. LONG SHOTS is a sexy sensual anthology that is not for the faint at heart. The relationships are heart-wrenching and you will experience a roller coaster of emotions from lighthearted laughs to gut wrenching sobbing. The sex scenes are blistering hot and they will leave you flushed and sated. If you couldn't guess by now I completely enjoyed this book and recommend it to those who enjoy erotic romances with a lot of heart.
