The erotic stories in Secrets explore enticing situations that many may have contemplated but only few have experienced. They reveal the fantasies of ordinary people and the heights to which we all can rise in our imaginations. Just as the Agent Provocateur shop windows have become famous for their frank portrayal of the most popular, and some rarer, sexual fantasies, Secrets explores a range of personal predilections from voyeurism, illicit liaisons, phone sex to fetish. Each carefully commissioned story, written by a bold new talent, is a celebration of the body and the mysteries that surround it. From the dark side of a London party girl, to the personal of diary of a bored shopgirl, the stories in Secrets embrace the passions and the fantasies of a 21st-century woman.

#TwentyIn2020 romance Bad Love is the story of London born Ghanaian Ekuah Danquah and her tumultuous experience with first love. Marked by this experience, she finds herself at a crossroads - can she fall in love again, or does the siren song of her first love still call?
Chosen for their escapism, indulgence and pursuit of the erotic, these stories explore the sensual and sexual yearnings of a woman who is sexy, provocative, and strong-minded---even if she keeps it under cover. In typical Agent Provocateur style, sex is brought out of the bedroom and paraded brazenly in front of us in a way that we cannot avoid it---nor do we want to. Themes explored range from "Ritual" a portrayal of illicit passion, through "Afraid of the Dark", a tale of strange erotic experiences in a dark room with a willing onlooker, to an unexpected threesome in New York in "The Lecture", to a frank confession of sex in a crowded bar in "Control". A heady blend of fantasy and reality they are chosen for their literary merit and their erotic content---and most importantly---for their ability to turn on men and women.
