Seduce Me

The stories in this collection are built around hunger and the lengths people go to satisfy it. In one, a woman sets out to prove to her boss that she is the one who should be in charge. In another, a lonely office worker opens an anonymous erotic gift that awakens cravings they had not known they had. A third centres on a couple whose attempts at sexual self-restraint turn into an unexpectedly intense form of torment.

Across the book, the stories move through sensual encounters, illicit affairs, and forbidden passions, with characters willing to gamble nearly everything for physical gratification. Fantasy and everyday life bleed into one another, as do what people believe they should want and what they feel compelled to have. The collection sets no limits on desire and treats each need as something that must be met.

Professional life and pleasure collide again and again, so offices and boardrooms become places of seduction as readily as bedrooms do.
