Beware!  This is a hot topic that will scorch your senses of what is accepted and what isn't.  Definitely not for the faint of heart or for close-mindedness.I read this short novella in the Bend anthology and absolutely LOVED it!  I was familiar with K. Bromberg, but hadn't read her Crashed series (yet), but knew it was going to be good. It made me want to read ANYTHING this woman wrote.  Wow!  Yes, this story may not agree with many people because of some taboo situations, but honestly, if you've lived a married life for an extended period of time, one might have these types of fantasies and questions about their relationships.  And if you skip over the "taboo situation" (which I actually found erotic and quite intense), this story was well written and hit the mark on all corners.  I could feel the emotions and feel what Lily was going through.  And the situations surrounding the trip and what she was enduring?  Explained with scorching hot truth and honesty that could make people feel uncomfortable or face their truths.This story made me want to read anything this woman writes.  I understand it is completely different than anything she had written before, but that makes me hungry to dive deeper into this woman's creative mind.  Intense, dark, questioning, romantic and REAL.  I LOVED it!*since the book was originally published in the Bend anthology, I understand this published edition is a little different, but I believe it is just as good.
