Sometimes in life, deliverance comes not in the shape of a man on a horse, but a friendly face at a local airport. And a couple of brutal orgasms...

Both are authors headed for the annual romance authors’ industry non-conference in St Louis. Both have been fucked by circumstance. Both need rescuing, each in their own way. But who’s going to rescue whom?
Is there a happily ever after waiting for this unlikely pair?
࿐ ࿔*˖𓇼 EXCERPT 𓇼˖*࿔࿐
About thirty feet away, I saw a woman with black and teal luggage. She was leaning against the wall, looking at her phone. Her hair was dirty blonde and shoulder length, and she had that same lean build as the woman in the Twitter bio. The way she was standing, I only saw a little of her face, but what was there seemed right. She was of average height with narrow hips, and she was dressed in tight jeans and a button-up shirt. She looked up, scanning the room, and I nodded when her eyes landed on me. She stared back down at her phone and seconds later, a message popped up on mine.
“Is that you with the beard and long sleeve flannel?”
“Yep.” I was already walking toward her when I hit enter, and she was still looking at her phone when I put my hand out. “Ben.”
“Uh, Rachel.” She smiled and shook my hand hesitantly. She wasn’t short, but at 6’2” I was towering over her. She looked like she was in her early twenties, which would make me about twice her age. She also looked like she wanted to take a step back, but she had her back against a wall. I took a step aside to be polite and maybe not so intimidating.
“I don’t take cabs. I have a car rental though,” I said, and her smile disappeared. She was just looking at me. I figured the ball was in her court, but she didn’t seem to know what to say. “Look, it’s nearly five and I didn’t have lunch,” I added. “It’s a forty-minute drive to the hotel, and I want to eat something, so I gotta get moving. If you want a ride you’re welcome to come, but you’ll end up eating with me too. If not, that’s fine, but I want to move out.”
“Uh,” she finally said, looking at me. “I’m not ungrateful or anything, but I don’t know you…”
“Hey, I get it,” I shrugged and started to turn. “It’s cool, I’ll see you around the con.”
“NO! No, no, I could really use the lift. My bank is being a dick. Someone stole my card info and I’ve changed phone numbers, but forgot to update it so they can’t text me for verification and it’s all just a mess and I’m tired so I do, like really do, appreciate your offer, but I don’t know you and...” She was turning a little pink, as much from pride as frustration by the looks of it. I liked the set of her eyes.
“Ah, and you don’t want to get raped, murdered and body dumped on your way to the hotel?”
“Uh-huh.” She nodded.
“Look...” I pulled out my driver’s license and held it up to my face. “Snap a pic and send it to a friend. If I rape, murder, and rape you again, the police will at least know how to find me.”
“Rape again? After the murder?” She held up her phone and snapped a picture. “Wouldn’t that be necrophilia?” she said, already sending it to someone.
I gave her a half-hearted grin. “If I’m going to end up arrested, I might as well cross off a bucket list item while I’m at it.” She looked at me. “I’m joking.” She still looked at me. “Look, bad humor is something you’ll have to put up with as a consequence of a free ride. No necrophilia though, I promise.” She put her phone away. “I assume you aren’t really Rachel Regent though?”
“Amy.” She pulled her luggage onto its wheels. “You want my ID?”
“Nah.” I started walking towards the automatic doors that led to the parking garage.
“A girl can’t beat you up?” She asked, following me.
“It isn’t that. I just figured I shouldn’t have offered if I wasn’t ready to deal with whoever you are. Besides, I once had a roomful of gangsters talk about cutting me up. Not much has really felt quite so dangerous since.”
“For real?” Her voice came over my shoulder as we arrived at the rental car.
“Tell you what,” I said, fumbling with the unfamiliar keyfob. “I know my way out of the airport, but don’t know the city well. Let’s find somewhere to eat and I’ll tell you all about it.” I took her luggage and stacked it with mine in the trunk.

★★★★★
When Amy finds herself stranded at the airport, a total stranger shows up to save the day. Jaded smut consumers already know how this will play out. The damsel in distress is rescued by a knight in shining armour. She bites her lip, he gets horny and, as the title suggests, they fuck. That’s the done-to-death formula, but Armitage doesn’t play that game. That’s what makes him such an interesting writer. He delights in subverting expectations, and his short stories provide a slice of life told by flawed, funny and fuckable characters we can relate to and root for.
★★★★★
You see them on the train, the departure lounge, the metro—your eyes meet for a second and you wonder “What if?” We get to watch that fantasy run its steamy course when crabby, good samaritan Ben meets bratty erotica writer Amy outside a car rental office, and what good, unclean fun it is! Believable characters, snappy dialogue and naughty nighttime antics with a sprinkling of sass set this smutty story apart. I loved the perfectly judged mix of fantasy and reality—grounded escapism for grown-ups at its bawdy best.
★★★★★
Armitage creates a match made in hell with Ben and Amy. He builds tension throughout a short but all too relatable plot until everything comes to a head. A quirky, heartfelt, and spicy work that leaves the reader wanting for more.
