In these tales of sizzling erotic romance, deep affection and the warmth of familiarity underlie the erotic connection between longtime lovers. �The Plant on the Mantel� explores the unexpected implications of a generations-past affair on a young married couple. �Honey Changes Everything� finds Kim wondering how to lead her husband out of his state of despair upon losing his job; inspiration comes when breakfast in bed serves up more than just pancakes. And �If�� and ��Then� examine what happens when Valerie finds herself intensely attracted to someone other than her boyfriend�and what he does when he finds out.
Two original stories (�Soft and Gray� and �Shattered Angels�) join the eight previously published tales in this collection. If�Then is a testament to the scorching eroticism that can so seamlessly subsist with long-term romance.
