"Unmasked" by Jordan Shelbourne (retired superhero). LeAnna: 10, 10, 10
"Unmasked" by Jordan Shelbourne (jordan@u36.com). Guest review by LeAnna. (This review means only my opinion, nothing more.) This is an excellent story. It starts out right after an engaged couple, Emily and Jim, finish making love. There's a slight problem with their sex life -- she never orgasms during 'it'. Jim asks her why, and she gives him a laconic answer. It's obvious that they've been through this before. After lying together for a few moments, they get up to go through her scrapbooks, deciding what to throw out before she moves in with him. Jim opens a scrapbook and discovers that Emily was once a sexy young superhero named "The Blackbird". The same superhero that fueled dozens of his adolescent fantasies. He can't quite get over it. The thought gets his hormones pumpin' (and that's not all that gets pumpin'...) What is meaningful about this story is the psychology that develops -- even though she insists that she isn't involved with that anymore and should get rid of her costume, she still gets revved up by the mere thought of her previous escapades. The moral here is... no, I won't get into that. :-) It's a good read -- pick this one up and see for yourself! The dialogue is impeccable, the sex is clitoris-tingling, and the love between them is obvious.
