Rainbow Balloons Asten Clarke

There are two sides to every story...

Rainbow Balloons: Eighteen-year-old Anna Jones has been fascinated with balloons for as long as she can remember. So when her dream job of appearing in balloon clips comes up, she doesn't hesitate to take it. But Anna is naive and does not realise the true reasons for the clips, until she meets Mark, a handsome, charming young man who introduces her to the world of the 'looners' and changes her perspective on life forever. Seven years later, Anna is now a successful businesswoman, running her balloon decoration business 'Rainbow Balloons'. She's about to take on the biggest job of her life: to create some decorations for a big charity concert. But will her failing marriage and the threat of an online stalker push her over the edge?

The Popper: Mark's Story: Twenty-five-year-old balloon fetishist Mark is infatuated with looner website HotBalloons' newest model, Anna. Mark's dreams come true when he gets the chance to meet Anna at a fetish party hosted by the site. The two fall in love and get married. But over the years Anna, now a professional balloon decorator, changes her tune when it comes to her husband's fetish, leaving Mark feeling 'sexually tortured'. When an ex-online friend starts stalking Anna, pushing their marriage to breaking point, Mark threatens to avenge himself and the looner community...
