“Beautiful Friend” in the Dreamspinner Press anthology “Necking”

Edited by Julianne Bentley

Just close your eyes and feel: soft, warm lips skimming from your shoulder to your ear, your skin prickling and tickling. Then add another set, echoing the first, layer upon layer of sensation as two sets of hands join the game, stroking, sliding, ratcheting up the heat. And when your lips part and the tip of your tongue darts out, it’s met by two more in a luscious, messy, three-way kiss. This is necking, pure and hot, sending shivers of arousal down your spine. In these stories, the men come in threes: triple the pleasure, triple the love.

Beautiful Friend by Dar Mavison

Madison Emerson and Tex Bellamy are former elite soldiers whose partnership reaches back to basic training and into the future. They are “equal partners in a relationship that more than tolerates intruders,” and Emerson has a plan to make a beautiful medic, Gabriel, their next conquest.
