WINNER, Agent Provocateur's Secrets and Confessions

Agent Provocateur have been pushing the boundaries of what is Erotic since opening their first boutique in London\u2019s Soho in 1994. Over the last ten years, their shop windows have become infamous for their frank portrayal of the most popular and some rarer, but no less piquant, sexual and sensual fantasies. Agent Provocateur have explored a range of personal predilections, from voyeurism to illicit liaisons, from phone sex to fetish. It seemed only natural therefore that Secrets explore all of these and more, through an exciting selection of original stories from some new and exceptional writing. The Agent Provocateur Head Quarters can often feel like it is seething with conspiratorial stories of sexual adventures - especially after the receiving feedback from the public. Many have written in, with no guarded detail, what Agent Provocateur has inspired them to do. Others have written in upon invitation, in response to certain themes they were preoccupied with at the time. Hence the rather personal admissions of the Mile High exploits, in response to the launch of Heathrow store.

Confessions therefore seemed entirely appropriate a title for one of Agent Provocateur's first collections of erotic fiction. The imaginative writing chosen reflects obsessions toyed with themselves, in window exhibitions, such as bondage, Threesomes, Sapphic Sex and Role Play.

The vision for Secrets and Confessions was to create a collection of erotic short stories that would stimulate, enchant and arouse both readers and their partners.
