SUMMARY: Despite being married, Christie finds herself 
attracted to her new neighbor and friend, Melissa.  As it 
turns out, the feeling is mutual.

COMMENTARY: This story sizzles, or at least it did for me. 
The author does a number of things that I believe contribute 
to making it well above average. In particular, the plotting 
and the pacing are very well handled. The story isn't rushed 
nor is it too drawn out. The author drops little hints of 
possibilities of things to come in such a manner that when I 
read it I found myself quite aroused. I like Christie and 
Melissa. Even though they are aroused by one another, they 
hold back on revealing their feelings for fear of what the 
other might think. The mounting tension between them is 
quite delicious.

If you don't care for stories of lesbian lust then you may 
want to skip this one, but otherwise I cannot find anything 
objectionable in this story.  I highly recommend giving it a 
try.

SUBJECTIVE ANALYSIS: Excellent

LINK(S): Dreams and Awakening
