"Tit for Tat". Shelby and Eric tried counseling to save their five-year-old marriage after she learned of his one night stand cheating on her. However she remains angry though she loves him and decides it should be tit-for-tat, meaning having sex with someone else; Eric is repulsed by the idea but accepts he has no choice as he still cherishes his beloved. She selects Jason the Bar-Guy she knows from the Wednesday after work happy hour.

"Tuesday with Lori". Lori and Kent are deep into their second year of marriage with specific goals that have led to long hours at work and sexual nanoseconds in bed. Lori wants more, vowing sex will not be sacrificed to the God of ambition. She starts with a blindfold as she takes charge of bringing excitement back into their tired libidos.

"G Marks the Spot". They are Eight months married before Dani and Trevor are forced for the first time to sleep apart as he is on a business trip in Milan. Exploring their Portland mansion she now lives in Dani finds a locked mahogany chest which she picks only to find his porno DVD collection inside the box. She watches two and confronts her spouse when he comes home by showing reality beats film anytime.

These three torrid tales run the gamut of erotica though some readers will fault the algebraic logic (double negative is a positive) of Shelby. Still, as the couples learn what turns on each other, sub-genre fans will be turned on to Elizabeth Scott's NAUGHTY HOUSEWIVES in heat.
