WARPED DESIRE "It has to be this way every weekend," Laura said as we lay side by side. "How can it be? My father will be home." "After he has gone to sleep I can come to you." "What if he should catch us?" "He won't catch us. We'll be smart. He's a sound sleeper but if that doesn't work out we can always take a ride into the country." I sighed and closed my eyes. This was my father's wife. And my lover.… THE STRANGEST SIN "Sharon Doyle felt dirty when she woke up in Jimmy Slade's bed, but that wasn't unusual. She always felt dirty after a night of passion in Jimmy's cheap room…" Sharon owns a bar and too often ends up blotto at the end of the evening, letting Jimmy take her back to his place. Her neighbor Carl Evans is a nicer guy, but he won't make a move. Between them is Bert Robinson, the local racketeer who wants Sharon all to himself, no matter what it takes. But Sharon is tired of them. She finds herself more attracted to her bartender, Lucy, who keeps the local guys satisfied in a room upstairs. It's a lit-fuse situation, and all it takes is a single act of violence to set it off.
