Marijuana Girl / Call South 3300: Ask for Molly! / The Sex Cure: A Trio of Beacon Books (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781944520892)

MARIJUANA GIRL

It's the striptease in the gymnasium that gets Joyce suspended from school right before graduation. She had just been acting out. But the dean is not amused. It's not Joyce's fault that she looks for love and attention in all the wrong places. Her parents have been bouncing her from relative to relative all her life while they travel around the world. At least she has Tony. Or did. When Joyce takes a job at the local newspaper and starts seeing her boss Frank, Tony blows up and deserts her. But that's okay because Frank takes her into the city and introduces her to the world of jazz musicians, jive talk and marijuana. It's all happening so fast for Joyce--and all she really wants is to be loved.

CALL SOUTH 3300: ASK FOR MOLLY

Slade Martin is a womanizer and a heavy drinker, but he's the shining star of the sales department at All-Channel TV. His job is to sell sets, so when he meets Ann Frank, he immediately corrals her into helping him land the biggest client at the convention, Mortimer Kane. How she accomplishes this task is her own business. But Ann has a secret of her own. Besides working for All-Channel, she is also a high class prostitute working for Molly, the local madam. Unaware of this, Slade falls for Ann in a big way. Ann would like nothing more than to fall for Slade, too, but the feeling just isn't there. Instead, she's in love with Eric, who only uses her for her money--if only he weren't so good in bed.

THE SEX CURE

Justin Riley has to admit that his troubles always have something to do with women. What he really wants is someone who believes in him, who believes he's the best doctor on earth. Someone young, eager and exciting. There's Betty, pregnant with his child and suffering a botched abortion; Misty, a failure at marriage but not sex; and unattainable Marge Miles. His wife Olivia is quick to point out that her money and father's influence got him where he is. But Justin is tired of pretending--pretending to love the women he just wants to sleep with, pretending that his marriage is respectable and good when he knows deep down that he is nothing but a liar and a cheat. A man ruled by sex... and fear.
