Description:

Taking Chances is a series of stories that tell about several women who for various reason, both sound and unsound, take risks in their personal and sexual lives. At this writing in the autumn of 2011 there are seven volumes to this series. Volume One is called Ellen's Bet.Ellen is a 38-year-old married mother of three. She is an executive with a Chicago firm that licenses proprietary industrial processes and provides training and consulting in those procedures to client firms.She travels to Baton Rouge in early February, 2010 to do such work with a firm there. She meets Patrick, who is her contact and facilitator on his firm’s behalf. Patrick invites Ellen to his home to watch the Superbowl. Although not particularly interested in football Ellen accepts, seeing the social occasion as a pleasant way to spend an otherwise dead day in a city she has never before visited. Ellen meets Patrick’s wife, Roberta, and four young men from the firm Patrick has also invited. Naturally all the others expect the New Orleans Saints, who play home games just eighty miles to the south of Baton Rouge, to win. Ellen expects the Colts, who play in her neighboring state, to win. One of the young men proposes a bet for a sizable sum on the game which all the other men are willing to match. For reasons she can’t begin to understand immediately Ellen, unable to cover the proposed wager with cash, blurts out that she will cover the bet with her body. She understands the implications of what she is proposing. She understands the terrible jeopardy to which she exposing herself. Somehow, though, the thought of being out on so perilous a limb – sweet victory one possible outcome, utter humiliation and abasement the other – lights a fire in her. She finds herself unable to resist the allure and tension of the hazard into which she is placing herself.When she loses her bet Ellen must surrender her body and pay off her lost wager.The story explores the characters of the men to whom Ellen loses – from the sweetly romantic to one sadistic and abusive creep. We watch as Ellen’s new friend, Roberta, helps her through the night. Ellen begins to realize the magnitude of the disaster into which she has managed to land, and begin to feel the guilt and remorse from her irresponsible actions that will accompany her back to her home and family. Mostly the tale is about the lessons and self-realizations Ellen perceives during a night like no other in her life.
