B. Lou Ferry studied his creation, which he named Noccio. Noccio was perfect in every way, except he did not know how to feel. Noccio had been designed to feel and be a real man, so why didn't he? After a few minutes, B. Lou Ferry realized Noccio had to learn if he was to be a real man, so he put him in the hovercraft, drove to the edge of town and left Noccio on his own.

Noccio couldn't understand why his creator had been so upset with him. He stayed for several hours in the same spot waiting for his creator to return. Finally he realized he was alone and his creator wanted him to learn how to be a real man. Noccio began walking and only stopped when he realized his energy levels were depleted.

There was a man on her doorstep. After a few moments conversation she realized it wasn't really a man, but an android. A very life-like android, but still not real. For some reason beyond her ken, she brought him inside, fed him dinner and helped him get undressed for bed. How was she to react to a man who had the innocence of a child and didn't understand what his exploratory actions were doing to her?

To make matters worse, she had this strict rule about only dating real men, not androids. So why was the thought of teaching Noccio about the ways of life thrilling?

I don't think I will ever be able to watch Pinocchio again. *g* Ms. Chase's short but sweet and erotic take on this fairy-tale will have readers laughing and rereading this tale for years to come. Noccio is adorable in his innocence and you can't help but love him. Don't miss.
