Cori Lynch spent the last decade raising her children and is ready to return to the workforce; working as a massage therapist is the perfect fit for her schedule and her desire to help people. Cori knows she can make a difference improving her client’s well-being by using her skilled hands. Cori quickly learns that many of her coworkers are using their talents for much more than working out kinks and treating sore, strained muscles. Cori’s shock turns to curiosity and then to temptation as she peppers her new work friend Mayde with questions. Cori’s husband Dylan was already enduring happy ending jokes from his best friend Baines when Cori became a massage therapist, putting the possibility of “extras” front of mind even before his wife shared the news of her coworkers’ special services. It’s not something Cori would ever do, of course, but the revelation propels Dylan’s mind to consider outlandish and forbidden fantasies. Magic Hands is the story of a couple tempted to explore dark possibilities and suppressed desires. Can a typical suburban couple resist such temptations? Can their marriage survive if they give in?
