Stephen Leather

Adrian is a Singapore-based stockbroker who flies to Thailand to blow off some steam. He takes every sexual opportunity offered to him in the Land Of Smiles, but before long he is bored by the endless chain of sexual partners. That's when he's offered a new sexual thrill, a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to try something that he's never done before - a man wants a group of strangers to make love to his wife while he watches. So Adrian agrees to bang Bill's wife, not realising that the experience will change him for ever.

Banging Bill's Wife is just under 7,000 words - about 20 pages, perfect for when you have half an hour to spare.
