Adventurous Friends

Adventurous Friends concludes the Adventurous Collection of Erotica by M.P. Clifton. This final volume presents a quartet of short stories about women who explore the intimate side of life with other women. Though not every character in these tales is living openly and in fact may be in a heterosexual relationship, each knows herself well enough to forego societal convention and follow her heart - or her desire. Sometimes the trigger is compassion for a friend or the admission of a long held secret. But, whatever the catalyst, the result is passionate fulfillment and sexual satisfaction.
