Losing It

Ranjit Bolt

A modern day Canterbury Tale! Frustrated Lucy can't seem to lose her virginity, she's thwarted at every turn by useless men, witches and ghosts. The book is written in rhyming couplets. If you get the rhythm, and feel the beat, Then you're sure to have a treat!

Extract
I give you leave - no I demand
That you secure your cherry's loss,
shake off the stupid albatross
that's hanging round your nubile neck-
Was I, at your age? Was I heck!
