Sweet Satisfaction by Alexis Canto
Nick feels lost when he finds himself in a twenty-first century candy store. The last thing he knew, he was on a Civil War battlefield in 1863. Now he's surrounded by sweet confections, none sweeter than Megan, the woman standing in front of him. Megan has always wanted to experience dangerous sex-something that gets her adrenaline pumping. Now is her chance for a thrilling encounter. But Nick isn't the only ingredient in her fantasy come true. His fellow soldier Dave is on the scene, ghostly but eager to please and be pleasured before he goes on to the hereafter. A sexy blond ghost, a horny brown-haired time traveler and a woman craving adventure make a recipe for one hot afternoon.
