The Contract
on March 14, 2011
It was a little long for me, but I understand the intent - unlike a lot of erotic fiction, there is a purpose here. Sort of an S&M for Dummies. I think the curious can learn something here. Also I liked the way you fit the story into it. Not sure if you do other types of writing, but you could. Well written.

Evil Takes Flight

Good story for a younger audiance. You might think about tightening it up a little, but I read from start to finish - a good sign. Almost a 4 star.

I see there's other Stacy and Harold stories - probably not completely fair reviewing just this one without reading the others ... interesting.
