A quick, fun and enjoyable read!
Thanks!
Wish you'd write longer but I'll take what I can get.
'Throes of passion', not 'throws of passion' (One involves sex, the other cricket. Cause I'm a prat that way)
I don't like writing sex scenes too much either.
Keep writing.
I like short stories with open endings and I like long stories with careful character and plot development. The most important thing is a plot hook that is not done to death. This was a very good short story. Well done.
I'd like to know what happened when Kate tells her husband that she fucked Mike and Mike tells him that he's going to continue to fuck Katie.
By all means, stuff of this quality? Great! An original twist, but more important some of the best dialog on the site, what more could we want?
I liked that dialog. The male character would be recognizable in any story based on the 'sound'
of his dialog. This is no easy feat
That story has been done numerous times with far more meat. Other spouses cheat and one finally finds out and tells the other, revenge or not, then variations. Pretty much tells your story.
My thought is all the details leading up to it, discovery and the variations are what make it great. This story has the basics and none of the fun.
Short, to the point and he gets a willing partner instead of a payback fuck! Nicely done.
He settles several old scores gets what he was after and comes out the good guy smelling like a rose., TK U MLJ LV NV
You built it up in our head and left us satisfied without beating it to death!
It's way too rushed. The storyline itself had potential but the author ruined it by not taking the time to flesh it out. Now it's asub par rush job. Therefore only one star.
Slow day Brit? Sort of like mixing a Martini and forgetting the Olive. By far not your best.
It was a nice little turn of events that she thought he was a bastard looking for sex and both of them turned out to be the injured party. She was a bit too quick to take him at his word, never trust the best friend claiming your husband cheated and suggesting you jump into bed to fix it. She should have asked to see a picture, which he could have quickly produced and then move forward. But they got to the revenge quickly enough.
Not much in the way of background or character development, but a very enjoyable short story.
[However, in this application, the word is "throes", not "throws".]
For a piece so brief, I liked this one.
Yeah, like some of the others, I felt it was a little rushed. You could have had them consoling one another for awhile before jumping into the sack.
I still gave it 5* though.
A nice to the point story. Maybe a short story II to cover the confrontations with their potential ex's.
Short and sweet and you told the whole story. Great job thanks for sharing.
not too much of a story. I prefer the author's stories which are longer and more developed. Britease has created many delightful characters which enhance the clever plot lines he produces. Unfortunately this offering is so short that we are given only a glimmer of Kate and Mike and feel shortchanged because of that. Nevertheless I would be sorely disappointed if there weren't more stories from Britease to savor in the future.
Probably would have made a great story, if you'd bothered to put a little effort into it. That being said, I did enjoy what there was of it.
I would have liked to have read about what they did in the bedroom, and if he was really truthful to her about her husband cheating.
thanks for the read
I 'd have awarded you a higher score, but you misspelled "death throes."
Short, quick and to the point. I hate cheaters. All should live in pain.

Another good and funny story...As almost all your stories...
This needed a little something between his revelation of the adultery (does anybody use that word any more?) and the final curtain. Some more conversation, or Mike taking off Kate's dress, or something. Other than that, it was acceptable, understandable, and well structured. I gave it a four.

...you might want to spend a little time talking about condoms and STD's.
Thanks for sharing your stories with us.
as far as his marriage is concerned.
That this author has posted and I am sure he is not English as NOBODY in England would say golly gosh........ever.
You really don't think I'm English? I assure you I am, even though I live in France that is. Golly gosh, how spiffingly embarrassing!
Bankrupt the guy, buy the company for a song , be the hero to all the employees you save. Enjoy your new life without a cheating wife. Golly Gosh, what more could you want?
now to put the Spin on the tail for the donkey, TK U MLJ LV NV
... 'Cause I can respect anyone over the age of 5 repetitively using the words 'GOLLY' or 'GOSH'.
Mike probably married a slut, Mike, but him having the vocabulary of a toddler probably didn't help...
Great little story and possibly the best epilogue I've ever read.
How did he find out
I presume he will fire or something like to ex best friend
Bankrupt take over company no one else out of job
...and screw Kate often and with enthusiasm!
I do like a story where the cheaters get what's coming and the victims just cum.
of what could have been an interesting story. Unfortunately, this author is always scant on detail. All in all, a disappointingly lackluster effort. One dully blinking star.
Okay, who is lying? Is Mike telling the truth, or is her husband? Neither one seems to be all that credible, so we need more.
Nice story, but I would have enjoyed a little more about what happened to their spouses after this encounter. Did they divorce, continue on with life as it was, I just needed to know how it all ended.

Lots of good ideas but no bang for your buck. Go back to the desk and finish the damn story.
An excellent series of cute'n'clever little shorts Very well done, thank you!
R.S.
Fun, but I cannot help but want a little more.
Excellent for the word count.
You ask about little tales, they are fine, but I prefer generous tales.
If this was the first of your stories I had read I'd say: Enough All Ready. Having trouble working this one out but since I'm working on the series there is still light at the end of the tunnel. Wonder if it's a train?
Forget the other commenters! Bloody good story. You are impressing us natives, no end !
5 stars.
