Prologue:
A lifelong collector of goods and objects from far and wide has passed and left the entire collection and the business built around them to the only remaining relative, a niece on a career path of her own. Vikki has taken on the task of administering the estate and liquidating the business and collection. However, she has come to find out that many of the goods have been cursed or enchanted with amorous powers that affect those who encounter them. These are the stories of some of those encounters with objects found at Amorous Goods.

Last year's
Amorous Goods
Story Challenge spawned a fantastically fun anthology of supernatural tales. It was so fun for both readers and writers that it's happening again!

explains the concept:
In television and movies, an anthology series consists of multiple stories written by different authors using a common theme or core story concept.
This concept is an erotic variation of the theme of the TV series, Friday the 13th: The Series, that ran from October 1987 to May 1990. [Please read

Authors should create and develop their own characters as customers of the store, the objects involved and the effect they have on the characters while retaining some contact with the store and the main characters who run it.
Stories may also feature the main characters and the business itself as described and named in the
Story Ideas thread
