Voices in the Dark
Lacey Savage
Maddie’s coworkers have no idea that she gets off on calling random men, whispering raunchy fantasies in their ears and hearing them orgasm at the sound of her voice. Her fetish is fun, daring and most importantly, safe. That’s paramount for a transplanted Texan now living in New York.
Sex with strangers is risky. Phone sex is totally anonymous. Until Maddie calls a coworker by mistake. And when Adrian recognizes her voice, he turns her safe little fetish into a dangerous game. One that Maddie can’t possibly win.

Chapter One
I began doing it in my thirties.
I know, I’m a late bloomer. Most people start in middle school or in high school if that’s how long it takes to convince enough of their friends to come along for the ride.
You see, for most folks, this isn’t a solo sport. Rather, it’s something to be shared and enjoyed with others.
Not for me though. I do it alone, in the dark.
“Hello?”
The voice on the other end of the phone is female, and I stifle a flash of disappointment. I’ve never had a meaningful experience with a woman, and something about this one’s voice—worn down and exhausted, making me think she spent all day chasing after kids, cooking dinner and doing three loads of laundry—tells me she’s not going to be the one who changes my mind.
Still, I can’t help but try.
“What are you wearing?” I ask in my sultriest tone.
“Excuse me? Who is this?”
I bite down a sigh, clench my fingers around my favorite vibrator. Already I can feel my lust dimming.
Her anger flares up another notch. “Who the fuck is
