Enchanted Again by Nancy Madore

The compilation consists of excerpts from Nancy Madore's erotic fiction anthology, Enchanted Again: More Erotic Bedtime Stories for Women, published in 2008.

These stories generally focus on female protagonists grappling with emotional dissatisfaction in their relationships, which leads them to seek out intense, unconventional, or even destructive forms of intimacy. Narratives include Pansy framing her husband for murder after an affair involving sadomasochism and manipulation, and Claire developing an obsession with a local handyman who secretly provides sexually explicit mechanical devices and services to women in a small town.
