Sensual Saturday - Shower Scene from Eagle Dance

In today’s hectic life with busy schedules, it’s hard to find time for each other. Grab the moments when you can. Add a little romance to your life by taking a sensual shower with your honey. (I suggest finding a shower gel or soap you both enjoy and saving it for such an occasion.)
Please enjoy this shower scene from Eagle Dance.
“Damn!” His jaw dropped. She stood gloriously naked, water dripping from her hair into her face. Blonde strands plastered the skin of her shoulders above high breasts. The areolas were like large cherries begging to be plucked, and he had every intention of exploring each inch of her toned belly to the neatly trimmed fair hair at the junction of her thighs. He wanted her long, lean legs wrapped around his waist while she rode him into tomorrow. Blood drained from his brain and rushed to his cock again, and the need to taste and touch her everywhere forced his feet to move.
“Holy shit.” Her eyes grew wide as she gawked at his naked body. Stepping back, she let him slide under the water.
“Is something wrong?” Pleased with his effect on her, he smirked and placed his hands on his hips.
“I wondered what you looked like under all those clothes, but didn’t expect perfection. Wowza.”
He kept his body in peak physical form and secretly coveted her admiration. Moving her soapy hands over his body, she used the slipperiness to her advantage, setting him on fire. He reached out to pull her close for a kiss, but she moved back to skim over his shoulders, massage his neck then up and down his arms. She splayed her long fingers on his chest and across his abs and ribcage.Even in the military, he’d never been so thoroughly inspected. His beauty knelt and massaged his thighs and calves. She soaped along his hips then cupped his balls and palmed his hard cock. Intense bliss suffused all parts of his body, especially the one in her grasp. Glancing down, he admired the scattering of freckles over her creamy skin. He almost fell out of the tub at the sight of the smooth curve of her backside. Amanda must have noticed her effect on him because she giggled softly. Continuing to stroke and pet him while she rose, she licked water off his belly and chest.
“You are too good to be real. You can’t be human.”With tiny kisses, she sucked droplets off his chin.
“I am.” Tempted to say more, he only chuckled. “Mostly.”
“I could have wild monkey sex with you all night.” she whispered against his lips and continued to stroke his cock.

“Ikwe, that can be arranged, but I’d like to slow things down.” Closing his eyes, he focused on her touch.

Fun Friday - Couple Fun

Sexy games can bring the spice back to any relationship. Perhaps you once had a terrific sex life, but the hassles of day-to-day existence have made sex less of a priority.

 Set some ground rules before playing sexy games. Both partners must be able to end the game at any time, for any reason. 
Setting up "safe words."   Some couples find that particularly during role-playing games, a “safe word” helps their confidence level. A safe word is a word that is not likely to come up during your game session. 

Either partner can use the safe word at any time as a sign to end the game immediately. It is extremely important that both partners respect each other enough to respect the use of the safe word and end the game without question.

Respect each other's vulnerability.  Never laugh at your partner when playing sexy games. Some of the situations may be silly and certainly giggling can be a healthy part of a good sex life. But laughing at your partner may cause him to clam up and be unwilling to participate in future sexy games. 

People tend to be particularly vulnerable during sexual situations, so always treat your partner with tenderness and respect.

How To Initiate Sexy Games
If you have difficulty broaching the idea of sexy games with your partner, ease into the conversation using any of a variety of tactics. Broach the subject of a magazine article you may have read. Another way to ease your partner into the idea of sexy games is with a simple but meaningful present. 

Instead of the usual tie or sweater for the next holiday, give him a card containing 52 “love coupons.” Each coupon can be redeemed for whatever sexy act is depicted on the card. Tell him that he is entitled to redeem one coupon a week for the next year.


Enjoy yourself and enjoy your partner.
As you and your partner gain confidence, you can move into progressively more wild sexy games. Sexy games should not be the sole focus of your sex life, but can bring new life into one that has begun to stagnate.

Throwback Thursday - Book Signing Events

I love my kindle but nothing beats the feel of a bound book in my grasp.I miss the days of traveling across the state promoting my print books with various events. Fans would not only have me sign their books but many would also have bookmarks at their favorites passages. I always enjoyed answering questions and sharing the back stories of my books.


Reading excerpts took a bit of getting used to. I still blush when I read the steamy parts.
Do you attend author events?What's your favorite part?

#TatTuesday

A tattoo is a work of art and often holds special meaning to the wearer.



I chose a phoenix to cover a scar.
Do you have a tat? 
What is it & what does it mean to you?

Monday Mojo - Sex at Work

15% of adults have had sexual intercourse at work.
Oh sure, hot office sex on the desk or in the utility closet.
If you worked in a brewery or winery... yes, yes, oh yes!
A chocolate factory?  Totally orgasmic. 
But...
can you picture having sex if you work at
 the county landfill?
waste management?
the car wash?
subway newspaper stand?
a kilt shop?
Wait a minute...
 can you turn around and show us how to wrap the kilt correctly?
HAPPY MONDAY!!!!!!!

Fall, Homecoming and Class Reunion

To me autumn means colorful landscapes and delcious food. The local orchard is running hayrides every weekend. A cup of fresh apple cider and a spiced doughnut are a treat at the the end of each ride. But before the tractors fire up their old engines, it's Friday Night Lights.

Last weekend was our town's homecoming.

For the last three years the Class of 2014 built their float at my house. 


This year we hosted the Class of 2018. New faces, new names but just as much fun.


My eldest son graduated last spring and is now attending my college alma mater.
 I am on campus this weekend to celebrate homecoming as well as my 25th class reunion. As I walk around campus there are many changes but a few things remain the same...the cafeterian food, school spirit, and the beauty of life-long friendships being made.



I have looked forward all year to reconnecting with several of my old friends who I laughed and cried with, as well as those who along with me pushed our creativity to limits from making banners to cheer on the team and planning the 1988 homecoming event.  Good times.



Will I be inspired to write a "Reunion Romance"? All ready did.... Taming Rachel... in edits now.  Stay tuned....

Tasty Tuesday - Spiked Mulled Cider

Many of you know I'm a Football Mom. My boys are Youth Football, High School Football and College Football. That's sitting outside weekday for pracitce plus games on the weekend. I've learned to dress in a kazillion layers but once the cold creeps into my bones there is no getting rid of it.

However...
I discovered a shot of Hot Damn schnapps in some mulled cider works wonders. 
.




When making mulled cider use a hand held sieve to eliminate consuming the spices.


Single serving Spiked Mulled Cider:
Pour apple cider into a pot and simmer over low heat. Add clove, cinnamon stick and nutmeg. Float orange slices. Pour a shot of Hot Damn Schnapps into a mug before filling with the warm cider.
I found prepared mulling spices at my local market. After adding some to a pan, I add a few cups of cider and simmer over low heat. The longer you simmer the richer the flavor. Add a shot of Hot Damn or favorite fall schnapps to the mug before filling with the warm cider.

Easy Spiked Crockpot Cider for a crowd:
1/2 gallon apple cider4 whole cinnamon sticks8 whole Allspice Berries or ClovesOrange peel or slices from 1 orange(add lemon peel from one lemon during cold season) 3/4 cup spiced rum 1/2 cup Hot Damn 1/2 cup Buttershots
Cook on high for one hour then switch to warm and serve.


For the best benifits this hot beverage should be read while reading a steamy romance book next to a cozy fire.
