A Story from 2003: Don abhorred St. Patrick's Day and all the crap associated with it. However the day of the local parade he got called to the office. When he attempted to leave, all the exits from the parking area were blocked because of the parade he had done everything to avoid. As it turned out, things happened that had him reconsider his views. A young red headed Irish dancer had him mesmerized.
When Greg and his teenaged daughter, Marlee, have some tension at home, he decides to take the girl on a tropical vacation where they can get away and work out their problems. They never expected a visit to the resort's nude beach would change everything.
Chloe is barely fifteen and just discovering her sexuality. At cheer camp, she is seduced by an older girl and then fate, and a lack of engine oil, sees her stranded at a dingy motel with her mother. The three girls they run into in the diner next door seem determined to make it a night they'll remember forever.
Fourteen-year-old Christina would never see her parents in quite the same light after what she saw that night. While some children might have reacted with 'Ew' or 'Gross', Christina thought that they were beautiful. Christina was jealous.
When Henry converts his string of high class brothels into top of the range retirement homes, he uses his 'girls' as carers, employing others with equally damaged lives. His death at 90 - expected but sudden - leaves his grand nephew ill-prepared to take command. The story is set in Scotland, a great wee country well worth a visit!
