Leah Braemel - Hauberk Protection, Series #.5 #1 #2 #3 #3.5 #4

This erotic short story introduces you to Jodi and Mark, the hero and heroine of Private Property, as Jodi decides to usher in the New Year with 'a bang' instead of a fizzle. And gets a whole lot more than she bargained for.



There's nothing casual about this caper...

Jodi Tyler has loved and lost too many times to believe in happily ever after. That's what makes her no-strings affair with her boss so perfect--his power in bed matches his respect for her independence. Still, when he surprises her with a menage for her birthday, her secret thrill wars with a nagging thought: Why would he so casually share her with another man?

Even though Mark Rodriguez holds Jodi at arm's length from his heart, her self-confidence is a turn-on he can't resist. Inviting old college buddy and future business partner Sam into their bed for one night was supposed to set free her wildest fantasy. Instead he finds the tables turned, forced to watch while Sam brings her to the height of ecstasy.

Now, Mark's not so sure he wants to share his treasure...



She can cover him with one hand tied behind her back. Maybe two.
