description: Nikki Blue refuses to allow society's standards to stand in the way of her dreams of having a wife. Her yearnings of motherhood outweigh her fantasies of one day marrying Katrice Carrington. She is determined, by any means necessary, to become a mother. When Nikki is deployed to war, she devises a plan to have the family she's always wanted. Nikki is devastated when Katrice breaks her heart and finds comfort in the arms of another woman. As a single mother, Nikki grieves the life she thought they would share.   Nikki searches for the woman who can give her the one thing she's always longed for...love. A night in a strip club lures her into the gritty world of lust and seduction. She finds shelter in the arms of straight women who secretly crave the novelty of her body. Nikki is unashamed as she boldly lives out her wildest inhibitions. She willingly gives her body but not her heart...until she meets southern belle, Valencia Morton. Nikki loses herself as they become entangled in a web of lust and unrequited love.
