    About this ebook

    Three stort stories that have been on my mind lately. Hopefully writing them for you will help them to fade away.

    Dilfs- A short about a young womans crush on her best friends Dad.
    Sexy Texting- Home from college Roy's next door neighbor, Heather, starts to play with him through texts attempting to seduce him into a more intimate encounter
