Title: I.O.U. SEX

Genre: Women’s Fiction / Romance

Rating: R (Sex between consenting adults and some mild profanity)

Old eating habits are hard to break, aren’t they? In this scene from I.O.U. SEX, best friends June, Kiki, and Peggy get together for the first time since their inebriated idea to search for their old high school boyfriends.

     The next day, Peggy sat across from her two friends, studying the restaurant’s menu and having a hard time deciding which entrée to order. Finally, she told the waitress to bring her favorite meal—chicken fried steak, mashed potatoes with cream gravy, and a large Coke. A look passed between June and Kiki, but they said nothing, other than to ask for grilled tilapia with steamed veggies and iced tea. Peggy sighed, wishing she had their willpower, wondering if she could change her order, but the waitress had already taken their menus and left.
      Kiki took a sip of water and smiled at the others before speaking. “So, how goes the great search? What's the latest?"

     “Search? Wa…wait a minute,” Peggy stammered. “Are you talking about your wild idea to find our old boyfriends? I thought that was just a joke. June, you’re not searching for Denny, are you?"

     June's cheeks reddened. "Well, yes. In fact, I found him."

     Peggy stared at her friend, open mouthed, thinking June must be as crazy as an outhouse rat to get involved in Kiki's scheme. "But...but...you aren't going to--"
