Hero: Cal. Sexy. Uninhibited. Likes to talk dirty in and out of bed. Comfortable in his sexuality.

Heroine: Verity. Humiliated by her ex boyfriend. She wants to prove her sexuality and decides Cal is just the man to help her.

Verity has never had good sex. Her ex boyfriend rated her sexual skills on an internet site and wasn’t kind. Verity has decided to prove she is not sexually cold in the bedroom and feels her boss, Cal, is the perfect man to help her.

My fingers find his erection, and the room seems to tilt slightly on its axis. Surely that can’t be right. I open my hand over it, grope around the general area. I lean back, fumble open the zip, unfasten the waistband of his jeans and tug them out of the way.

Oh. Apparently it is right.

I sit there dumbstruck for what seems like an age, until Cal leans to the side and switches on the lamp on the table next to us. The glow from the bulb is gentle, perfect mood lighting, casting shadows across his face and highlighting his stomach and his massive cock.

‘Something wrong?’ he asks.

‘No,’ I squeak. ‘Everything is fine.’

‘Oh,’ he says. ‘Good.’ Then he eases his thumbs under the waistband of his boxers, and sort of pulls them up and over, and I see his erection in all its glory. In all its long, hard, I didn’t know they came that size glory.

‘God, that’s a big cock.’

Those words must have come from me. They can’t have come from anyone else, because there isn’t anyone else here. I can’t stop looking at it. 

‘It’s very long.’

‘Is it?’

‘It must be at least eight inches.’

‘At least,’ he says.

O’Reilly writes such naughty little novellas and this one is no exception. Humorous and titillating, readers will want a Cal of their own.
