No matter how hard he tries to stay away, it isn't possible. He wants her. Needs her even. But she cant give him what he wants. **I know there seems to be a lot of chapters, but most of my chapters are 1000-2000 words. Only a few of them have more** 200,000-220,000 word count

Two women, each desiring something they think would be impossible. Longings they feel could never be achieved. By chance meet but in a setting where they fear they may never speak of what they each crave. Time goes by, and their yearnings for each other reach a level where they do finally confess their dreams and desires. Finally, they are able to voice what they want to each other. A relationship, partly on an unacceptable level in society's eyes. Could it be true that a mommy and an adult baby girl finally found each other? A perfect coupling. Which expands to include a new family circle for them both, which surpasses anything they could ever have imagined. I hope my tales offered here are enjoyed and tantalize readers some. I would so appreciate feedback, whether comments on the stories or votes. I understand if readers don't vote or comment, as I can be faulted the same way when getting into a story. But, as a community of writers in this somewhat diverse world, it is appreciated when support or even objections and suggestions are made.
