These are the 10 best lesbian short stories<\/strong> that we have read to date, with five from me (Sheena), five from Tara<\/a> and one from Tamara.<\/p>\n

I enjoy short stories because they are faster to read, which is a blessing when you are trying to conquer the lesbian world and unite lesbians around the globe. Ask me about this pursuit some time, I may talk your ear off, though.<\/p>\n

The problem with short stories, however, is that the author doesn\u2019t have a lot of time to develop characters or to create worlds. This means that you can throw a rock at a pile of short stories and you will probably hit a bad one. These, however, are guaranteed great reads.<\/p>\n

We considered novellas, stand alone short stories and collections.<\/p>\n

Miranda Dashwood was born wealthy, but now she struggles to survive: her deceased father’s gambling debts have crippled the household. With no skills and no experience, Miranda resigns herself to the world’s oldest profession and loathes every moment of her new life… Until she meets Valerie.<\/p>\n

Valerie Wilde is the Madam of The Crimson Manor, an exclusive and successful brothel. When one of her most popular girls leaves, Valerie has to find another, fast.

Confused by their desire for one another, the women are drawn together by their forbidden feelings. And all the while, Valerie is terrified that Miranda will leave her for the life of a kept mistress. But Miranda has her own ideas on what the future holds, and will do whatever it takes to make her vision reality.<\/p>\n

\"All-You-Can-Eat-Lesbian-Erotica-Buffet\"<\/a>All You Can Eat edited by RG Emanuelle and Andi Marquette<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Category: Erotica\/Romance<\/strong><\/h4>\n

Chef RG Emanuelle and sous chef Andi Marquette locked themselves in the kitchen to create a menu that would explore the sensuous qualities of food and illustrate how the act of preparing and eating it can engage many more senses than simply taste and smell. They gathered a great group of cooks who put together an array of dishes, and they present to you here a menu that ranges from sweet and romantic to sultry and seductive, from relationships enjoying a first taste to those that have moved beyond the entr\u00e9e.<\/p>\n

Each story also ends with a recipe. Some of these require cooking implements while others are whimsical accompaniments that don\u2019t require cooking at all\u2014at least not in the traditional sense. After all, food serves as more than sustenance\u2014it\u2019s a trigger for love, laughter, sex, pleasure, and carnal and sensory satisfaction. Whatever your palate prefers, you\u2019re sure to find something tasty here.<\/p>\n

The menu includes dishes by Ashley Bartlett, Historia, Jae, Rebekah Weatherspoon, Cheyenne Blue, Karis Walsh, Victoria Oldham, Cheri Crystal, Andi Marquette, Jove Belle, R.G. Emanuelle, Sacchi Green, and Yvonne Heidt.<\/p>\n
