The Hearts' Wants

by Stephany Barnes

Category: Romance / Erotic

Joyce and Bev are longtime neighborhood-mom friends. Their husbands were friends, their kids were too. Getting ready for work one day, Bev hears bombshell news from Joyce: Her husband is leaving her. Bev, herself a recent widow, immediately calls into work to comfort Joyce. Holding each other, the two women alternately laugh, cry, and rage. In one of the quieter moments, things take a steamy turn as Joyce invites Bev past the boundaries of their intimacy. Bev follows, lovingly--until fear and confusion push her back. Now their relationship is in uncharted territory. Joyce feels rejected. Bev resents Joyce springing this on her. Bev wants to salvage the relationship while Joyce doesn't seem interested. But what is their relationship? Are they friends, with a one-off in their past? Friends with benefits? Lovers? And what next? Move in? Marry?
