This series is dedicated:
To my Pet who brought back my inspiration to write naughty things.
To Donovan who provided lots of beta, great suggestions, and grammar checking.
And, as solid proof that it pays to give feedback, to Lazuli who wrote:
Candy Perfume Boy: damn, I try to be good and not use the S word, but if ever a story cried out for a sequel it's this one. I really enjoyed Spike's thought processes here, appreciated both the characterizations, and I'd so like to find out if Xander feels the need to go and buy a copy of that song!
and started this whole thing!
I must also thank all the kind folks at the Yahoo Excessant group for their kind words, support, and offers of chocolate in exchange for more stories.
Note: The titles in this series and all song lyrics used in the stories are taken from or inspired by Madonna's "Ray of Light" album.
