SUMMARY: Paul attempts to convince his coworker, Stephanie, that he can do better for her, in bed, than her current boyfriend can.

COMMENTARY: The author does a beautiful job plotting and pacing this story. He doesn't cut to the chase too fast, but instead takes his time. The result is a short story that includes a few twists and turns; twists and turns that I enjoyed and did not forsee. The author has also done a very nice job with the characters. The manner in which they are portrayed leads me to believe that they both have lives that began before the story does and continue after it is over. They also remind either of myself or of people I have known, in certain ways.

Other than a typo or two, and one instance where Paul asks Stephanie to roll onto her back when what follows makes it clear that he meant to ask her to roll onto her stomach, I think this is a wonderful story.

I get the impression that this one may appeal to women a bit more than to men, even though the main character and narrator is a man. Still, I strongly recommend that all of you at least give it a try.
