Description de l’éditeur
Modern Shorts: A Contemporary Romance Collection features all five of Regina Kammer's contemporary romance short stories, tales exploring the possibilities of love in this modern age.
The possibility...
Of loss.
Of a proposition.
Of a dinner date.
Of a fantasy.
Of the hottie next door.
…The possibility of romance in our chaotic modern world.
Modern Shorts: A Contemporary Romance Collection is comprised of five steamy short stories, each with a contemporary setting and heterosexual liaison. Themes include exploring fantasies, taking risks, deepening relationships. Tropes include second chance romance, vacation romance, older woman-younger man, romantic comedy, and, of course, happy endings. Each story is written in first person from the point-of-view of a woman in her prime (that is, thirty-five years or older), except "Object" which is written in third person from a male point-of-view.
The collection includes the following previously published short stories:
Silent Sky
A moody romance set in California on September 11, 2001. The possibility of loss spurs a woman to reminisce about her once-perfect marriage.
An Academic Pursuit
During a research trip to England, Regency romance author Jean is propositioned by a younger man. But what will Jean's husband say?
Object
A dinner date with his girlfriend in San Francisco becomes something more than Nigel bargained for.
Orcas
A lawyer vacationing on Orcas Island finds stress relief in a hot tub and fantasies of a honed cyclist.
Window Display
In this tale of unexpected voyeurism and romance set in Zurich, Switzerland, an American scholar trying to finish her dissertation finds her room has a very distracting view.
