To staid old Charleston she was a prim civic leader. To her husband she was an imperious and frigid companion. This was the first Amy - my aunt. Then, one day, in the stately drawing room of the sadistic Miss Wescott, I watched as my aunt tremulously stripped on command. She emerged a voluptuous nude animal exulting in any sexual act, her appetite whetted by any perversion. Shuddering with anticipation, screaming in pain and joy, she was insatiable. This was the second Amy - my lover.. First Edition 20th Printing. Mass Market Paperback. Very Good. 12mo - over 6¾" - 7¾" tall.
