Dom of the Dead

Wow! I read this amazing story, and couldn’t believe so much could be packed in to a short story! Carson just lost her best friend, Randall, to a bike accident. As she grieves, she realizes that he was more than just a friend; he was someone she loved, and could now never express her feelings to him. After some time, her sister gives her a chance to get herself back out there into the world, and she follows her advice, leading her to a bar. It’s here that she finds herself caught up in the greatest fantasy she could have ever imagined, and given a miraculous second chance.

This story takes you through a gamut of emotions in just a short amount of time and leaves you with the overwhelming desire to not take things for granted, but to seize the moment. It’s heartbreaking, romantic, sensual, incredibly erotic and fantastically written. Carson and Randall are wonderful characters that fit together perfectly. Their erotic story is one that I think I’ll keep around when I need an emotional pick-me-up.
