“I just have to tell you,” Kit began as we reapplied lip gloss in the bathroom mirror. “We went to one of Liz’s parties and I thought Mark was going to have a heart attack. I’m not judging. I just don’t want you to be as surprised as we were.”

“Surprised by what?” I’d been so caught up in my own head all night, I hadn’t paid much attention to anyone else.

Kit pursed her red lips and wrinkled her nose. “I don’t know how to say it, so I’m just going to come out with it. Her couples parties are for couples looking for other couples.”

I forced myself to close my mouth. “That’s what she sells?”

She laughed. “No, no. It’s actually a business. She comes to your house and sets up a sexy adult toy store in your living room. It’s fun for a bridal shower, but we didn’t know what to expect so we were kind of blindsided by people, well, testing the merchandise in front of everyone.”

“Good to know.” We both giggled like teenagers. It was a wonder we were able to collect ourselves and make it back to the table in time for dessert.

Not that my mind calmed. I couldn’t help the scenes flashing through my mind, even though the monotony of flourless chocolate torte and cognac should have distracted me. I was completely mesmerized by the idea that this ordinary couple held swinging parties in their living room.

How did that work? Did the women have a lingerie fashion show for the men? Were there demonstrations of the more adventurous toys? Did everyone sit around in a circle playing a sexy board game the way we played cards with the neighbors? How did that play at the soccer game the next morning?

I had to keep myself from staring at Liz and wondering how it started. Maybe they both wanted to have affairs and thought swinging a better option than breaking up. Had it been her idea or his? My mind hadn’t spun with scenarios like this since college, when I wrote short stories at a frantic pace. I’d been working on a novel before I had Janelle. It was buried in the storage closet beneath boxes of her baby clothes.

“Are you two planning on having more children?” Seth Watts seemed to be asking the question of my cleavage. Okay, so if it hadn’t been his idea, he obviously was thrilled with the plan.

“Maybe once we’re settled,” Scott answered, sipping his drink. Funny, I remembered a heated argument three years ago involving me threatening to castrate him if he had a vasectomy.

I wanted another baby; he swore up and down we couldn’t afford the two we had. My girlfriends had thought I was crazy to keep him from having the procedure if he was willing, but I just couldn’t close the door completely. We kept it locked up tight with birth control, but at least there was a key in case I ever managed to change his mind.

I tilted my head as I stared at him, wondering what he meant.
