Taking Chances: Volume Six: Emily & Ellen's Bet

Taking Chances - Volume Six: Emily and Ellen's Bet: Emily and Ellen work in downtown Chicago. In this novel of about 73,000 words they frequently eat lunch at Grant Park's Buckingham Fountain. At the end of April, just after Emily's experience with her friends (Volume Four - Emily's Bet) and Ellen's efforts of set things right with David (Volume Five - Ellen and David's Bet), the two women confide in each other about their recent experiences and discover their mutual interest in erotic wagering. Meanwhile, Ellen and David begin as a couple to explore David's secret desires. Emily and Ian begin to grow their nascent, but quickly developing, relationship. Emily and Ellen begin making a series of small-time bets with each other that result in low-level public exposure for the loser. The women begin to involve David and Ian in those activities. Finally, Emily again encounters Marcy, a cruel and dominant woman who had found Emily vulnerable in her story (Volume Four - Emily's Bet). Now Emily impetuously challenges Marcy to a hazardous bet that will either settle the score or visit on her more public humiliations.
