THE NINETY DAYS OF GENEVIEVE
Lucinda Carrington
When Genevieve Loften enters into a business deal with the arrogant and attractive James Sinclair, she doesn't expect a 90-day sex contract to be part of the bargain. As a career move, though, the pay-off promises to make it worth her while. Thrown into a world of sexual challenges, Genevieve learns how to balance a high-pressure career with the twilight world of fetishism and debauchery.

THE BIG CLASS
Angel Strand
1930s Europe. As Hitler and Mussolini are building their war machine, Cia - a young Anglo-Italian woman - is on her way back to England, leaving behind a complex web of sexual adventures. Her enemies are plotting revenge and deception and her Italian lover has disappeared -as has her collection of designer clothes. In England her friends are sailing their yachts and partying, but this facade hides tensions, rivalries and forbidden pleasures in which Cia becomes embroiled. It's only a matter of time before her two worlds collide - and everyone has to face up to their responsibilities.

THE BLACK ORCHID HOTEL
Roxanne Carr
Many contented female clients have passed through the Black Orchid Hotel, and, as joint owner of this luxurious pleasure palace, Maggie can have her every need satisfied at any time. But she has begun to tire of her sophisticated lovers, and is soon encouraging the attentions of the more rugged men in the area - including the local fire officer and a notorious biker. But she had better beware. There is one new friendship which may prove to be too hot to handle.
