#ScintillatingSunday – I’m All Yours – Just Make it Quick! #BDSM Erotica
Hello and welcome back to Scintillating Sunday. We’re on the laziest day of the week… but am I slacking? Oh no… more decadent naughtiness is coming your way. What else?
Desiring Death
“Who are you?” He let the door behind him slam shut and stood still as a statue, silently assessing his uninvited guest. Steepling both hands in front of him, he waited patiently for an answer. It was just as well he had all the time in the world, because she took an eternity to turn around. Martinet rememb...

Raven’s Seduction Press, Dawn White and Paige Matthews are pleased to announce the cover reveal for …ROUGH SUBMISSION.
Blurb:Autumn
I wasn’t looking for love. No, I had made a decision – one to help those that needed it; to try and save a life. I thought joining the pen pal program would be something to keep me distracted while I adjusted to my new life. I never thought I’d fall in love with a soldier…

I wasn’t looking for love. I had everything I needed; my platoon, my career, my foc...

Hello fellow spankettes and pervs… welcome to the WEEKEND! And what a week it’s been! Cover wars, the completion of a new anthology ‘Tease To Please’ and now the final edit on ‘The Ties That Bind’ before I ship it off to Chimera books. It’s all exciting stuff! But now for your Saturday morning tease…
Desiring Death
“You’re going to learn to obey me, princess,” he purred in her ear. “You’re going to learn to be silent unless spoken to, you’re going to be trained to obey every command that...
The Origins of #BDSM & The Study of #PAIN
Article courtesy of GQ (link below)
We have 19th Century psychiatrist Richard von Krafft-Ebing to thank for the term “sadomasochism” along with two writers, the Marquis de Sade and Leopold von Sacher-Masoch. The Marquis was keen on kidnapping women, cutting into their flesh and then suturing the wounds with hot wax. He spent over 30 years in insane asylums and wrote prolifically on the subject of sex and pain. Leopold was more into submission. He reenacted his novella Venus in Furs with his...

If #Sarcasm Is The Lowest Form Of Wit – How Come Only Intelligent People Understand It?
RoundHouse Discussion
House, Seinfeld, Black Adder… all these and very many more are examples of sarcasm on TV. For the screen writers to come up with this stuff, I expect it takes more than a few hours of hard work. It isn’t the easiest trick in the book to make people laugh.
So how come sarcasm has ended up with the tag – ‘the lowest form of wit?’
Any ideas?

I’m A #DOMINANT MISTRESS – What Should I Wear? #BDSM
The search term ‘What to Wear as a Dominant Mistress’ popped up in my WordPress stats, and while it tickled me a little, I got to thinking. My first thought was – whatever the hell you like – because you’re the dominant and you are in control. However, if you’re new to the role and you’re looking for things which your slave might expect, then I’ve gathered a few ideas for you below. But just remember – you’re the LADY IN CHARGE and YOU DECIDE!
If you want the classic ‘stereotypical’ look – t...

#MasturbationMonday – CUPPING & #Nipple Suckers
Hello and welcome to MOAN DAY. Yep, it’s Monday again but are we DEPRESSED? We are not. There’s plenty of naughtiness on hand and we’re going to have some fun ;)
The Ties That Bind
Watching as the rim of the first tube was smeared in Vaseline and pressed against to her back, she felt the pump being attached and sensed, rather than heard, the subsequent pumps. It was a strange feeling, having your skin sucked upwards into a small tube, but not entirely unpleasant. The pressure Len used was n...

Will Mark Matthews accept Redcliff’s terms for his daughter’s release, surrendering both body and mind to the enemy? Petal’s sanity depends upon the fact, for in the sixth and final book of Pony Tales she is to discover that the fate in s...
