Once in a while everyone wishes they were in someone else's shoes. Moira wishes she was in her good buddy Samantha's -- or, better yet, out of Sam's shoes and in bed with Samantha's husband Phil.

Samantha wishes she could lead a live like Moira's -- a life filled with temptations, and no reason to refuse them. Handsome men, a glamorous job, a future filled with possibilities -- possibilities Sam gave up to marry Phil. Now it seems like she and Phil have been married forever. It's no fun being taken for granted.

"This story is fun…. All of us sometimes wonder what if, now we can live the dream that we didn't pick."
- Lisa Wine, The Romance Studio

“Treva Harte tells an incredibly steamy tale with best friends wishing for the other's life in her short story Intimate Choices. Each woman experiences the life of the other and learns some valuable lessons. Intimate Choices will curl your toes as it is a very good read.”
— Alisha, Two Lips Review

“Cleverly told, INTIMATE CHOICES is a romance with a Freaky Friday twist. As Sam and Moira experience each other’s lives, they finally see that what looks so much better may not be. This story is fun and downright heartwarming. It certainly made me sit back and realize that while life is not always perfect, it is certainly what you make it.”

Behind the Book

When I originally wrote this book, I couldn't decide what ending I wanted and I left two in. This time around I was a big author and I picked. I hope you like who the women in the story end up with.

FRIDAY EVENING: SAMANTHA AND MOIRA

Samantha followed him into the car. After five years of marriage, she knew when her husband’s silence meant something was brewing. She even knew what he was going to say. Maybe she hadn’t finished college, but she wasn’t stupid.

She might have come off sounding like an idiot tonight, but she wasn’t stupid.

The whole evening had gone wrong from the beginning.

Maybe things would’ve worked if she hadn’t wanted them to go out as two couples. The pairing up had been a mistake. Moira was competitive and she’d always liked Phil, even back in their college days.

But Samantha had him. She’d always had Phil. They had such a safe, dependable relationship.

“Moira is looking damn good,” Phil remarked. “Hard to believe you two are the same age.”

Dependable Phil. Trust him to make a crack about the few extra pounds she’d put on. Moira probably kept her weight down from nerves and from cutting the opposition off at the knees. Phil wouldn’t care about that. He might even approve.

But he’d married Samantha, after all. He’d wanted a wife, one who could calm things down and be there for him. Moira wasn’t that. She’d never be that.

Moira was still thin and model beautiful, with that long dark hair and those blue eyes. She was closer to Phil than Samantha in height and she made the most of it in her high heels. She could wear anything she wanted to and get away with it with her figure.

And she did.
