Summary: How can you write true passion if you've never experienced it? When Anna turns to writing erotica to pay the bills after her husband loses his job, she faces an uncomfortable realisation: she doesn't know how to, because she doesn't actually know what desire is. Even her Sicilian grandmother - wearer of diamante sunglasses and knock-off Lois Vuitton - knows more than she does about love and passion. So instead Anna turns to her friends for inspiration, and discovers more about them than she ever knew: one is a lesbian; one has been in love with a married man for twenty years; and one has never had an orgasm. Along with Cordelia, a creative-writing classmate, Anna publishes her erotica online, sharing stories of desire from her friends' lives in the hope of inspiring other women to seek passion for themselves. But Anna knows she can't rely on borrowed passion forever - for her tales to truly sizzle, she needs to find proper love of her own..
