“Colors” in Best Women’s Erotica of the Year, Vol. 7
She sees sounds as colors, a trick of the brain that ties one sense to another. It’s a rare perceptual phenomenon that some consider a gift, but that has always made her feel a bit odd. Her kinship with color led her to become one of LA’s premier gallery owners and she and her partner, Maria, showcase works from groups underrepresented in visual arts. This particular night in the gallery a visiting artist asks to see some of her personal works and she takes him to the back room to view pieces not on display. It had been a long time since a man had made her see color, but the back room soon fills with moans and short breaths as colors pour across the wall in front of her.

She remembers the tantalizing stinging feeling of a belt smacked against flesh and spends her evening exploring by herself, pleasantly surprised by the shocking new knowledge that belts have tongues.
“Chemistry” in Orgasmic: Erotica for Women

You can thank her sexy scientist coworker for introducing her to both the chemical smell and the memory of a chilly, marble countertop pressed against her back.
