Damsel in Distress

J.T. Marie

Sinossi

Christina Brown is tired after a long shift at RVA Burgers, but not too tired to flirt with her last customer, Angie Johnson. But either Angie isn't a lesbian or she doesn't pick up on Christina's cues, because she doesn't seem interested in continuing their conversation once Christina's off work.
Angie's always known she likes women, but she's never had a chance to find out just how much. Christina is the first to ever come onto her so brazenly, and to be honest, Angie is scared. She retreats to the restroom to text her online buddy Billy for some advice, and she's still hiding out in the stall when she hears Christina come in. 
But before Angie can gather up her courage to approach the gorgeous cashier, someone else enters -- a man with no business being in the ladies' room, and nothing but sex on his mind. Unaware that they aren't alone, he assaults Christina at gun point.
Angie can't risk calling the police and being overheard. But she also can't stand by and watch Christina get hurt without doing something . The fact that the man doesn't know she's there, too, might work to her advantage. Will she be able to help a damsel in distress ... and maybe win the girl in the end, too?
