Rent-A-Spouse, Excerpts
Yep, this is what’s up next.
Jeni thought back to a conversation she had with her mentor during her training.
“Oh, yeah, it happens all the time,” Cheryl said. “Spouses fall in love with clients, clients fall in love with spouses. That’s why RAS are such tight asses about the first ninety days of the contract. People [...]

Green Shoes, meet Yellow Shoes. Yellow Shoes, meet Green Shoes.
The original plan for last night was to stay at home, do some girly stuff, arrange Personal Jesus for accordion, and enjoy the night to myself while Scott went to his gig.
