    About this ebook

    Six erotic fantasy & science fiction stories. City life is cluttered and high-density but anonymous. The characters in Only in the City are surrounded by strangers, and so, when they find a connection--romantic, emotional, sexual--it's explosive. The cities in this collection, like the characters in it, are unique and vibrant, complex and imperfect. [Warning: Explicit Sex.]

    In “As Far as I Can See,” a New Orleans man has discovered exactly how easy it is to slide into anonymity and loneliness in the city. He passes through his surroundings solitary and unseen, but what happens when he meets someone who is, literally, unseen?
    In “Camille/Leon,” a prostitute has a unique talent: she can shift genders at will. This has allowed her to make a terrific living, but it's forced her to split herself in two. Can she ever realize the whole of herself in a society that tears people apart?
    Drug cartels, sentient forests, dueling mages, and earthbound angels: each of these stories reaches for the fantastic, even as it stays grounded in the familiar feel of urban life.
    All the protagonists of these stories have lost something of themselves in the erosion of city life, but each of them will find something unexpected or precious through the erotic connections they make, whether fleeting or forever, that could only happen in the city.

    With stories by Eric Del Carlo, Elizabeth Coldwell, Shanna Germain, Renatto Garcia, Elizabeth Hyder, and Kaysee Renee Robichaud.
