The seething passions that lurk within many individuals are often hidden beneath a veneer of normalcy, exposed only under extremely tempting conditions. The woman who, after a few drinks at a party, takes on all corners, male and female alike. The man who, during a strip show at a stag party, climbs up onstage with the girl and performs with her in front of his friends. The couple who, under group pressure, join the neighborhood mate-traders. Mary Rodgers is one of these outwardly proper and quite normal people. But within her a love of perversity and a depth of passion she never dreamed existed lie coiled like snakes, waiting only for the proper stimulus to arouse them. SECRETARY IN HEAT - a fictional story about a society that refuses to face many of its real problems.
