Confessions of a Cougar

Author Morgan St. James says the story of how she became a "Cougar" is one that begged to be told. Names have been changed, but almost everything else is true.It all happened when she and her girlfriend, both 42 at the time, took a trip to England completley paid for by Morgan's cheating millionaire boyfriend. Cougars, also known as pumas or mountain lions, excel at stalking and ambushing their prey. They are beautiful but deadly predators.St. James says: "However, in modern times, "Cougar" is also a common term used to describe older women on the prowl for much younger men, and I confess, I didn't begin the trip on the prowl, but somehow I became a member of the pack. "Did I consciously choose to join? Never! It snuck up on me during this extraordinary trip to Europe. And oh what a thrilling adventure it was, filled with steamy, torrid affairs-but hold on, I'm getting ahead of myself. By the way, there was lots of humor, too.Did the fact that my boyfriend was six years younger than me qualify me as a "Cougar?" Definitely not. I dated lots of younger men back then. But thanks to some wonderfully sexy young guys in England, what happened there definitely did .
