For Research Purposes Only — Stephanie Williams

Lacy Cunningham prides herself on being a prolific writer in the romance and erotica industry. However, for the first time, she's stumped by her latest project -- a ménage à trois. She's doing everything to help get her creative juices flowing, from reading others works, buying non-fiction books on the subject to renting DVDs -- everything short of participating in the act itself.

Her boyfriend, Marty and Jerry, her first crush from college, are more than willing to help her with her research. With Jerry arriving in town for vacation, Marty mentions the possibility of a ménage à trois, and Lacy mulls over taking her studies a bit further. But it's going to take a lot of prodding on the guys' part before she actually indulges in that kind of research.
