Womb for Rent (Amanda Brian) – Conclusion

Well, it sucks. I guess so much was clear, simply by the fact that it is on this site. It was so bad it didn’t even leave me with this fluffy feeling in the stomach. Romantic films or books usually do, even if they’re only half decent.
We are left with some open questions:
When and how [...]

Womb for Rent (Amanda Brian) – Epilogue

Derek turned to watch the fax come across the machine. He lifted the paper from the machine and read the words scrawled in longhand on the page.Wanted: A knight in shining armor to warm my bed and body.
Must like kids, Basset Hounds and Dalmatians. Generous benefits, many perks! P.S. Did I mention the rabbit died, [...]

Womb for Rent (Amanda Brian) – Chapter Ten

Derek sits at home and is depressed. Maimie tries to shake him out of it. And is successful. She even gets him to admit that he’s in love with Talli. He jumps up to go look for her right away. This time, Maimie has to hold him back though. There’s a charity auction that night [...]

Womb for Rent (Amanda Brian) – Chapter Nine

I would love to give birth like Talli: Two hours after her water broke, the baby’s there. Derek’s with her all the time and is actually supportive, all the while having emotional epiphanies.

Womb for Rent (Amanda Brian) – Chapter Six

Chapter Six brings us THE SEX.

Womb for Rent (Amanda Brian) – Chapter Five

Talli dresses up for the Zoo Auction and is shocked at how revealing her dress is [You can see a leg *gasp*! It has a neckline (no, not even a plunging one, more a toe-dipping one) *gasp*!].

Womb for Rent (Amanda Brian) – Chapter Four

Chapter four starts with a lengthy description of Derek’s office (mahogany, green leather and disco light style paper weights), where he, Talli and Anthony came together to sign the contract.
Derek is on the phone but his ebony gaze is on Talli. Again the ebony. And again my question: Can gazes have colours?

Womb for Rent (Amanda Brian) – Chapter Three

Chapter Three starts where Chapter Two left off: Derek scrambles up from under is desk to see the woman who owns the gorgeous legs and finds this:
Her face, from what he could see of it, was hidden by a pair of ugly, oversized, gray tinted horn-rimmed glasses and a huge gray fedora.  A neat chignon [...]
