    About this ebook

    Audrey has no trouble achieving orgasms while reading erotic romance novels alone in her bed at night, even though her relationship with Joe ended quickly when she failed to become aroused during sex.

    Now she is madly in lust with her truly delicious work colleague, Yanni. She is delirious with joy when he invites her out to dinner, but when they go to bed and he kisses her breasts, nothing happens. Despite her lust for him her body refuses to become aroused.

    Audrey is devastated, but Yanni is determined to romance her until her body cooperates.

      No, that can’t be true. I have lots of orgasms at home in my bed.

      Yeah, alone!
