“Not something, some one. Someone I met the other day who’s really interesting.”
“Does Michael know?” Dini rested her hands on two wine bottles. “White or red?”
“White. I don’t like to mix ‘em,” Dee chimed in. “So, Fenny. Does Michael know?”
“Yes. He introduced us.” She looked innocent.
“You want us to beg? Or are you just gonna sit there and look smug until we start whimpering?”

My Fishnet Fetish
Fenny laughed. “Okay. Sorry. I had to milk it a bit for the drama. I met S.E.
Howard.”
“Wow.” Dini’s eyes widened. “The legal thriller writer? I love his stuff.”
“Yeah, me too. How’d Michael know him?”
“He…” Fenny paused theatrically. “Is not a he. He’s a she. “
“Huh?”
“You’re kidding.”
“Nope.” Fenny shook her head. “S.E. Howard is actually Stella Walker. She’s a lawyer with Michael’s firm. Somehow or other a conversation got onto writing and Stella spilled the beans. Michael picked right up on it, told her who I was and the next thing you know I’m sitting talking to S.E. Howard. It was a hoot. She’s a real interesting character.”
“Holy crap. A woman. That’s edgy stuff in those stories too.” Fascinated, Dini flashed a glance at Dee and then back at Fenny. “D’you think we could meet her sometime?”
“You read my mind.” Fenny smiled. “What better addition to our wine nights than an edgy legal thriller writer who’s a woman and a lawyer? If you’re both in agreement?”
“Sure.” Dee nodded. “Let’s give her a trial run.” She winced over two simultaneous groans. “No pun intended.”
“She’s single too.” Fenny’s voice turned mischievous. “Think she’ll tell us about her sex life?”
“She’ll be a great legal resource for some complicated questions.”
“If you’re injured during a BDSM scene, do you sue your partner or the maker of the flogger?”

Sahara Kelly
Fenny leaned back in her chair and let Dee and Dini run with the legal jokes. Oh yeah. She had a feeling that Stella was going to fit right in.
Provided she had a well-developed sense of humor, of course…
