"The Flame" by Nina Bangs. In 2700, Serenity, curator of the Galactic Museum of Erotic Art, believes one item would complete the collection, but needs to go to 2005 to buy The Flame from the sculptor Justin. He has not found the model to bring to life his mind's picture until the so-fine appearance of Serenity.

"The Wedding Night" by Cheryl Holt. In 1815 London, impoverish Lord Stephen weds wealthy American Ellen, who must persuade her spouse that she married him for the way he enflames her blood and not his title.

"Burn, Inc." by Kimberly Raye. When her partner eloped just before the tenth video is filmed, women's fantasy filmmaker Gerry finds her movie failing to heat the crew. Gerry asks Dr. Love to help her. Logan arrives to see the place where the porn moviemaker, who eloped with his brother, works. Gerry thinks this is Love and finds the inspiration to complete the series.

"Possessing Julia" by Patricia Ryan. In 1867 NYC, though she is a widow with a son, Julia remains a virgin worrying how her fiancé will react to that bit of news. She heeds the advice of Aunt Eunice to find a man to teach her how to make love. When her deceased spouse's cousin Clay arrives for the first time in six years, Julie sees it as a sign, especially when he agrees to tutor her.

Though the four tales cross different sub-genres, each one will arouse the reader (timed for when my spouse was off) with fun story lines and great lead couples. Fans of erotic romantic anthologies will appreciate these sexcapade novellas.
