The long awaited sequel to Dodger Blue has arrived!

I'm sorry this took so long, but I ended up really not liking the first draft of this fic and ended up sitting on it for ages before I came up with an alternative climax. (Yeah, I said climax.) It just wasn't up to the level of quality that Jet Black and Dodger Blue had been. I still don't think it's as good, but I had to finish and publish it anyway. It was a greater challenge to have het couples swapping partners than just a three or foursome and I didn't realize how hard it would be until I was trying to list out the pairings. LOL

Still, it's that mix of porn and romance that I really like in this series. Who knew something as simple as not letting anyone talk would open the pathway to a really interesting and sexy universe?

All the wines and candies mentioned exist IRL as does the wonderful cherimoya fruit. Yum! I don't drink so I know nothing about wine, but those varieties sounded good based on my research.

Thanks to all who were patiently nudging me about this over the years, especially the lovely mustangcandi who started this all with her fab ian_nikki comm. Here's hoping it doesn't take as long to get to the next installment. (Which features Edgecest!) I'm open to suggestions for a title if anyone has a color phrase to match the rest of the series. Brown perhaps? Silver? Gold? Bronze?

Very special thanks to betas melissima, penguingal, dizzydrea and t_vo0810 and to mustangcandi for their assistance with this fic.

Thanks,

Emma DeMarais

Okay but does the herbal lube exist in IRL too? :0
If the wines exist there is hope yet...
