Passage to Samoa
By Day Keene
“‘Making love to me is not part of your job.’ That was fifty million bucks in Uncle Sam’s best gold talking to me. That was Sylvia Ryan. A beautiful, uninhibited twenty-one-year-old heiress who’d eloped with the family chauffeur when she was sixteen and was married to a phony count at eighteen. That was my boss, too. Sylvia Ryan, the only girl on an all-male expedition to the South Seas. I was being paid two hundred dollars a day plus expenses for a particularly dirty job and I’d be lucky if I came out of it alive. Pretty little bundles of sex like Sylvia Ryan didn’t bother me at all. Or so I told myself… “

Save Me The Sun
By Hassoldt Davis
“On a remote Tahitian island, a strange and passionate encounter… The sultry tropic heat of Tapu was all around him now, and yet he felt strangely cold. Human warmth was what he needed, not the chill, sardonic understanding of his wife in her solitary room. He turned his mind to the wild loveliness of the half-caste girl Terii, and as he did so he was startled to find her standing before him. Now she was moving toward him, and he felt like a man about to be reborn.”
