MILF on the Shelf
by Nico Rosso
I am super creeped out by the Elf on a Shelf thing. A creepy pervy elf that moves around your house, reporting to Santa if you’ve been good or not? Talk about preparing kids for life in the surveillance state.
Happily, this is not about that. It’s about a woman who’s been “on the shelf” for years, and suddenly a former classmate of her 21-year-old daughter blows into town for Christmas, and between his extremely hot motorcycle and his extreme hotness, she’s quite taken in the pants area.
There are a couple of things I really liked about this one- much more than I expected to. Lori is Chinese-American, and there’s just enough information to give you a sense of who she is and why it’s been years since she had a relationship. In a few sentences, Rosso sketches out her history with her family and with marriage, and what she’s sacrificed for her business and her daughter. It’s really well done. Dylan, the hero, is a little less defined, but he’s only 21, he’s got less history to allude to. Dylan is also black, so you have an inter-racial relationship where neither person is white, and that is appreciated. Also, the sex is really, really hot.
The issue I often have with novellas is that there’s not much time to develop and resolve a relationship, and I think Rosso gets that: this isn’t totally resolved, but he gets Lori and Dylan to a place where they have made the choice to continue banging, and should this evolve into something else, yay! Good for them!
Lori Liang has been on the shelf for a long time. Her daughter is nearly finished with college and the holiday season only highlights how Lori’s nights have become a bit too quiet. A motorcycle engine breaks the silence with its primal growl as a man motors into town. She used to ride. What would it be like to feel that kind of freedom again?
But the motorcycle rider is Dylan Mabry, a friend of Lori’s daughter. He’s much younger than Lori, but that doesn’t stop a heated connection from starting between them. Her desire revs high, like his bike. How far will they go when he offers to take her for a ride?
