Sweet As Candy
Their kisses taste as sweet as candy. Professor John Boynton is the kind of man that every woman loves. He’s gorgeous, with thick black hair, blue eyes, and a commanding pointer that makes me gasp. Our teaching assistant for the class, Mark Kingham, is just as amazing. He uses a laser pointer instead of a wooden pole, but it’s just as thick and powerful. One day, I swing by Professor Boynton’s office hours and catch John and Mark together, with their muscular arms wrapped around one another and a lot more going on as well. WHAT?!?!?! But even crazier, the two men *invite* me to join them! Holy hotness, my head is going to explode! But what happens when I get pregnant with their baby? Will John and Mark welcome our child, or will I get an F in the class? John and Mark may have Biblical names, but there’s nothing holy about the way they act when they have the curvy girl in their arms!

No cliffhangers, no cheating, and always a HEA for my readers.
