Tainted Love (2007)
Tainted Love
“At least that was what she'd hoped for. Diane had given her the morning off because Easton and Weston were seeing their English-language coach, a multilingual professor at USC who made extra money removing the accents of those who immigrated. Though Esme had assured Diane that the twins would sound completely American in a matter of months, the anxious mother wasn't taking any chances.
Even with the twins away, Diane asked Esme to come up to the house. There was something she wanted to discuss.... Esme was puzzled, since things had been going really well lately; she'd even been given a raise. She hoped it wasn't about Jonathan. Their most recent night together, after she finished his tattoo, they'd celebrated his potential new movie role with Taittinger champagne, chocolate-covered strawberries, and fresh mango. After that … well, remembering the “after that” part was what made her blush. They'd awakened on the pool table. Enough said.
As she hurried up the gravel path to the main house, past the swings and sandbox where she had first met Easton and Weston, past the tennis court where she had first seen Jonathan hitting balls with Mackenzie, she vowed to banish thoughts of that night from her mind.MoreLess
