The erotic chapters of this consolidation are elaborations and omitted subscripts from writings of previously published books and some of those not yet published by K.S. Michaels and Penelope Ashe. Due to the scintillating nature of these sexually graphic stories, moral issues precluded them from print, until now. The characters of this book are neither vile nor raunchy, as some may have critiqued, but simply the fantasies, pervaded with passion, the authors wish to share in hopes to shed more light on the sensual characters within us all. There is a moment before the physical act has even beguna]the moment of consensual query that flutters the heart, and defaults the rational. Erotica, Fantasy by Numbers Volume 1 exploits the moment, and journeys further into the abyss of passion and adventure.
