Silver Heat

By Robert Reams

A rich and very successful writer loses his wife of 30+ years to a long and painful bout with cancer. Crippled by crushing grief and no longer able to stand being in any of the places they shared, he launches a quest to find deliverance from guilt and grief on the Northeast coast of Florida. He becomes determined to heal himself and takes a vow to carpe diem (seize the day) to take whatever comes his way and go with the flow. After forty years, his bisexuality reemerges as Fate leads him into the arms a near duplicate of a once good friend he has always regretted not making his lover.

Foreword

From the first time my best friend Mike and I fooled around in that scout tent oh so many years ago, down through all the men and women I have loved, I have always felt that I was created different, special. Others may seek to label me gay or bi, but the only category that fits me, describes what I am is: I love sex! I believe it was Woody Allen who has straight-facedly proclaimed to one and all he was polymorphous perverse. Hilarious but true. I love men! I love women. I love and have loved them all.

Since I have been happily and faithfully married to one woman now for over thirty years, the tales compiled in this book are complete and total fantasies. But they are based upon my own long and rich experience.

In my early days (and also later) I loved to read or watch pornography. It was all so deliciously dirty! I am also quite stricken with stories of romance and undying love: Romeo and Juliet; Ghost; A Man and a Woman; Love Story. When I got old enough to have sex, or make love, I discovered that people in love actually do those nasty dirty things to and with one another, those horrible dastardly, wicked and sinful things they show in those kind of films.

For many years I pondered: why isn't there one movie director who can make a movie that's beautiful and hot? Why must art and the media always portray our love as one or the other. In my experience, true love is beautiful and nasty.

I have tried hard in writing the fantasies that follow, to make them as dirty as the law will allow and asbeautiful and as beautiful as love can be. I believe sex is dirty; if you are doing it right. Thanks, enjoy.

Lance had not left the house in three weeks. Even so, the freezer remained stocked to overflowing with those thrown-together concoctions that, in other parts of the country were called casseroles, but here were called Minnesota hot dishes. There was one, he knew, that contained soggy tater tots. Well meaning friends had dropped by for the first three days, bearing food and flowers and condolences. Several of the women, Martha's friends, had even proffered more intimate consolations, but he had declined graciously. In his younger days, Lance would have welcomed advances from many women, but now, the way things were, he had scarcely any interest in things sexual. Even though this six week period of Martha's final illness and death, was the longest he had been without sex for more than 30 years. For sure he was still desirable, even though he was past sixty. He was fit and trim. His graying hair still held a hint of the fiery red it had once been. And he had the biggest cock he himself had ever seen, or heard
