Lizzy didn’t know why her friends were broke, anti-social, and content to remain that way. Until her birthday, when they chipped in and got her a sample package.It came with a coupon…

Snippet:
Lizzyâs heart skipped a beat when she heard the light tap on the door. Here we go. Her heart almost stopped when she opened it.
Leaning against the doorframe, Javier filled the space. His eyes were hazel with amber flecks of fire. His broad shoulders gave the T-shirt a pleasurable stretch. The hand he had casually blocking his groin didnât hide a thing. His stance left her no doubt of his confidence. And the stud in his left earâa silver heartâwas a total turn on. âSorry for keeping you waiting, pretty lady.â He brushed by her and took command of the room.Â
Lizzy didnât know what to do with herself. She wasnât squeezing a rubber dick in front of him.Â
âYou look like you could use a drink.â Javier relieved himself of a small backpack, Lizzy hadnât noticed. âLet me make you one and weâll get started.â
âUhhhâŚokayâŚâ Lizzy couldnât breathe; she couldnât think. She stood there watching him mix drinks.Â
When he finished, he held up a cold cloudy beverage, garnished with a slice of lime. âGimlet. Gin, lime, and a little sweetener. Itâs an easy sipper. To relax and inspire you.â He gave her one glass, and caught hold of her fingers, leading her to the sofa. He sat beside her, close, touching her hand.
Lizzy had a sip. Then she had another because she was nervous and couldnât help herself. âItâs good. Thank you.â
âMy pleasure.â He drank his own.
Oh damn. He had a dimple.Â
âSo, uhhâŚhow does this work? What should I be doing?â
âEnjoy your drink. Weâll hang out and chat until youâre comfortable. Then we can do whatever you want.â
Having a drink was definitely a good idea. It might have been the gin/champagne combo. More likely, it was him, but Lizzy believed she was already starting to buzz. âSo youâre a sex shop tour guide. How long have you been doing this?â
âThis is my first and only tour.â
âNo.â
âIt is.â
Something about his confessionâif it were the truthâencouraged her. She felt less embarrassed than she would be with an old-hand. He didnât have an arsenal of tired sell-lines to throw at her. She leaned into him without realizing it. âWhy would this be your only tour?â
He drank his gin. âIâm here for you. Itâs all Iâm good for.â
She watched him weave his fingers through hers.Â
âYou donât even know me.â
âIâm learning.â
Having put all her energy into stressing over the sex shop visit itself, Lizzy was unprepared for the shock he gave her hormones. Her skirt had risen a half-mile higher than it needed to be. Damn peppermint. It put her in the mood to make-outâŚwith a total strangerâŚwith a pipe in his lapâŚ
Say something, say something, say somethingâŚâDo you guys really sell souped-up sex dolls?â She hadnât meant to blurt it out, but she wanted to know.
âIâm not familiar with the term, souped-up. But, I imagine it would be self-flattery coming from me.â The bright amber flecks in his eyes lit up his face. âAnd, while we donât consider ourselves sex dolls, a large portion of what we do would suggest it. I believe the answer would be affirmative.âÂ
It had to be the gin. âPardon me?â
âIâm a souped-up sex doll.â
She burst out laughing. âI meant the supposed robots.â
Javier leaned over and whispered in her ear, âThat is a conflicting response.â
It was a straight sentence, no hidden meanings or innuendos. But his breath in her ear made her wet her panties.

Gimlet
(review request submitted by the author for an honest critique)Â
My jaw is still dragging the floor after reading Welcome to BB’s.Â
If you can forget Lizzie is having wild sex with a very, very, VERY  enhanced robot, then the sex scenes were off the charts hot.Â
Javier is not your typical robot. He looks real, feels real, and has thoughts and emotions. However, there is no mistaking he is not human. First and foremost, he’s price tag was no joke — $350,000 with no upgrades!
There were several instances where I laughed, though. Â
- He had a magical schlong. It literally shot out Gimlet (a cocktail). His tongue also released liquor from it.Â
- His ‘member’ can also shrink, deflate, or grow in size, depending on Lizzie’s pleasure and which hole he was about to or in the process of occupying. What a nifty trick!
- Boris was a cad. Love that guy!Â
I know sexbots are a real thing. I know they are becoming more realistic with each new model. I’m not sure if I would shell out or take a loan out for one, but there’s no harm in taking a tour of the shop. Now is there… *wink wink*
