"For a long time, she had wanted to hear the words, but he had never said them aloud or displayed any interest. He always seemed to prefer to just snuggle up together, watch mediocre TV series and go for long, romantic walks together. One day, she has simply had enough. She wants sexual pleasure and takes her lust and passion seriously. Act upon it. Enjoy it. Relish it. Most of all, she wants to feel desired. One evening, she is lacking inspiration and decides to log onto a porn site. A woman appears on her screen. It is a live session, and the woman encourages her to do the same, to turn her webcam on and touch herself in front of other lustful people. Will she do it? Does she have the nerve? She can't help but be allured and tempted by a world that could turn out to be the start of something fascinating and erotic."

B. J. Hermansson skillfully creates short stories that encompass both quick-witted prose and poetic descriptions. The underlying tone in these texts often inspires the reader to contemplate and question our established, pre-conceived ideas, especially when it comes to the normal, standards and sexuality.
