I looked for this on Amazon. The original is not available, at least not as an ebook, but someone has taken the liberty or rewriting it (

Oh, what does "

A good plot is essential to any story, but it does seem more difficult to find if sex is involved. Now, if they would only make the movies that way as well.....
