25 New Yorker Insights Learned in Undressed by Avery Aster
Sex
- Your vagina can take a guy’s shaft and nuts…at the same time.
- Always name your butt plug after Anderson Cooper.
- Pre-ejaculation while jetting a plane over Italy causes turbulence.
- Never let a dog sleep in your bed, especially three dogs. It’ll ruin your sex life.
- If he’s as hung as an Evian bottle, it’s best to look away.
Money
- Always retain the legal services of female lawyers, particularly ones named; Sarah Goldbaum and Hannah Goldstein.
- Never allow your mother to spend your line of credit on a psychic from the Caribbean.
- Sexual frustration leads to good business practices, enough to earn three hundred million dollars.
- If Bergdorf’s, Barney’s and Saks Fifth Avenue reject your upcoming fashion collections try selling it to JCPenny’s.
- Use your American Express reward points wisely.
Life
- Bellini cocktail consumption will induce foot fetishes.
- Swedish Fish, Now & Later, and Gummy Bears from Dylan’s Candy Bar are perfect for your fuck-it bucket.
- Everyone should be so lucky to have a best friend like Taddy Brill.
- Never drive a Ford Thunderbird off a cliff thinking you’re Thelma & Louise.
- Stay away from any woman named Scilla or Ottavia.
Fashion
- Wearing Tory Burch ballet flats while racing a sports car may cause ones clitoris to hum.
- Think twice before sitting Lady Gaga and Madonna next to one another at your fashion show.
- Prada and a condom, when worn together, are known to make bisexual men go bonkbuster cra-cra.
- Altering a vintage Valentino dress, formerly worn by socialite Nati Abascal, may land you on the red carpet.
- We should all get fucked in Fendi.
Love
- When in love, you can have as many orgasms as you like…in one day!
- Slow dancing to Giuseppe Verdi enhances one’s emotional state.
- Never argue with your lover in public, above all—never in front of Anna Wintour, Marc Jacobs, or Karl Lagerfeld.
- Playing Simon Says, in bed, may lead one to reveal their true feelings. So will strip dancing in front of him to the song Girls, Girls, Girls by Mötley Crüe.
- And finally, he must always say, “I love you,” first.

With Fashion Week approaching, she’ll do whatever it takes to secure the fabrics she needs to make her clothing line an international success—even sleep with her rival.
Lex’s Louboutins are dug in deep to win this war. All’s fair in love and fashion!

EXCERPT:
Cupping her hands around her eyes, she pressed her face to the window to see a tiny cockpit. “Where’s the pilot?”
“Right here.” He held out the keys, walking around the plane’s right side, smirking, and posing as Indiana Jones on the last crusade. She hoped they weren’t heading toward the Temple of Doom. Massimo rivaled Mr. Jones in hotness, she prayed not in adventure.
“Do you have a pilot’s license?” she asked, unsure if they taught aviation at The Royal Millionaire Playboy Academy.
“Sì, signorina.” He shook his head poking fun at her.
“I’m serious. Show me your license please?” Lex held on to the plane’s door as if it were a gate to hell. Christian Dior, get me outta here.
Massimo closed the distance between them in response. “Give me your hand.” Not waiting for her to respond, he grabbed her mitts from the door. “Bella, you are shaking,” he noticed and secured his fingers around hers, massaging her palm into his.
Strong hands. “You may call me Lex, not Bella. This isn’t Twilight.” She didn’t care for paranormal.

Welcome also to Steamy Saturday! This is the day of the week where I post a review of a book that I’ve enjoyed that is on the steamier side of romance. Today’s review is for something a little different…

Saddled Up – An Amber Oakley Adventure by Penny Birch
ISBN: 9781907761843
Publisher: Xcite Books a division of Accent Press Ltd
Released: Apr 2011
Source: I received a copy to read and review from TRRBlurb: Amber Oakley is back! Determined as ever to avoid getting her bottom smacked but her own deep needs and the awkward circumstances she finds herself in trying to solve her financial difficulties mean otherwise.
Offering riding tuition to girls from wealthy families seems like a good idea, but Portia and Ophelia Crowthorne-Jones prove to have a few ideas of their own, and are soon indulging both their lesbian desires and their cruel sense of humour at Amber’s expense. Will she end up as their plaything, or can she turn the tables and teach the little brats the lesson they so clearly deserve?
Saddled Up combines spanking, some naughty girls and some exciting raw sex. Amber and her girls serve up an ultra hot, fetish-filled steamy novel worthy of a look!
Amber Oakley is a fan of spanking! As the story says at the beginning, “Some girls need to be spanked.” Saddled up is the story of Amber, her love of spanking and the various people she comes into contact with. Amber is embarrassed of her need to be spanked. She doesn’t tell anyone. She keeps it a secret. To get her fix, she visits Hannah Riley at an out of the way trailer park. She’s sure she will never run into anyone she knows there, assuring her of the anonymity she wants to cover up her needs. Her inability to act normally eventually lands her in trouble. She’s spotted by some locals and her secret is out. Although Amber prefers women, she finds herself spending time with men at times. The first scene with Sebastian is unbelievably awkward at the same time unbelievably hot!
Saddled Up is an incredibly hot women’s erotica. For fans of spanking and women’s erotica, this book should be a must buy. The story romps along, at times awkward because of Amber’s innate lack of social skills, at times racing from one scene to the next. The characters are well developed and make for very interesting reading. Some of them the reader loves to hate, others, the reader cheers on.
All in all, Saddled Up is an explicity, fetish-filled romp of a book. Well worth a look!
Saddled Up is available on Amazon

Disclaimer: This is an 18+ book with erotic BDSM scenes and explicit language.
Can two dark souls ever make a light?
As president of her own distribution company, Julie Dawson has all she ever wanted — money, power, and respect. But her carefully crafted façade conceals a torment of abuse and helplessness. After years remaining emotionally aloof, she is finally independent, but alone. Because she refuses to rely on anyone but herself ever again.
Evan Adams is no stranger to success, or personal demons. The horrific trauma that destroyed his twin sister, and tore his family apart, forced him to craft a new life from the ashes of the old. He’s content enough, focusing ahead and not dwelling on his murky past. But something important is missing. He knows what that thing is but refuses to acknowledge it.
When a chance encounter brings these two strong-willed but damaged people together , what seems like a long, erotic journey through hell could lead them to a match made in heaven.
MUTUAL RELEASE
A coming of age novel about trust…on the long road to love.
EXCERPT
Monday dawned bright, clear, and cold, even for an October morning. Evan ran his usual route around the west side of his newly adopted town, relishing how strong he felt and looking forward to his workday – the one where he had a tight grip on his own destiny for a change. After a long hot shower, two huge cups of coffee, and an apple, he grabbed his presentation thumb drive and laptop and headed out.
One of the things he’d inherited from his father was a love of classic English cars. He had sold two of the three Jags, kept his favorite and bought an MG Spyder, not giving a shit at how much it cost to keep the damn thing running properly. As he sped in his sports car across Interstate 96 on his way to the far-flung Northern Detroit suburbs to sweet talk, finagle, and wow the big-time distributor, he was on top of his own personal mountain. Nothing would spoil the day. He refused to allow it.
He pulled into a visitor’s parking spot, tucked his Ray-Bans over the visor, and smoothed his hair before jumping out and striding to the glass front doors. “Dawson” was etched in the glass, nothing more or less, as if it were a boutique law firm or ad agency. Nothing out front indicated that it was one of the most successful craft beer and domestic wine distribution companies in the Midwest.
Tucking away a shiver of intimidation, he pushed the door open and saw a small shrine to Michigan craft beer. The front receiving area was full of faux six packs, cases, kegs, and displays representing every brand, including some that were nationally known. A single desk sat near another set of doors. Through its clear glass he could see a bustling group of people, men and women, all dressed in top-notch suits, getting ready to go out on their sales day. The place oozed professionalism, even a bit of snootiness that surprised him.
But he shook it off, walked up to the stunningly attractive blond woman at the front desk. She sat frowning at a large computer screen. He stood for a few seconds, thinking she would acknowledge him. Finally he had to clear his throat to make her look away from whatever had her mesmerized.
“Oh, hello. Sorry about that.” Her smile made her already gorgeous face light up and left him slightly breathless. Looking back, he figured he must have looked like a complete ass as he stood there, unable to form coherent words, his brain awash in sensations he had not allowed himself to experience in a damn long time. She arched one perfect eyebrow. He gulped, knowing he should say something.
“Uh, so, I have an appointment?” He winced at the upturning of his sentence as if he were asking her a question. Clearing his throat, he started over, pasted on his best “Evan Adams, Charmer” smile and held out a hand. “Evan Adams, owner of Big House Brewing in Ann Arbor, here to see Mr. Dawson. I’m a little early.”
She tilted her head, then shook his hand matter-of-factly. But he had to stop himself from stumbling backwards at the thoughts coiling up in his lizard brain at her touch. His mouth dried out and an odd yet familiar roaring sound fired up between his ears. She frowned. “You okay, there, Evan?” Her lips caressed his name, making him repress a shiver.
“Yeah, sorry. So, anyway, I’ll just sit… over here… until Mr. Dawson is ready. You know, since I’m, uh, early.” He winced, marveling at the depth of his dorkiness. She put her elbows on the desk, eyeing him closely. He observed that she seemed a little overdressed for a receptionist but figured this place must have a strict dress code.
“Sit here,” she said, patting the seat nearest her desk. “Keep me company for a while.”
“Um, sure,” he said, flushing red to the tips of his ears, then moving closer to her while trying to look cool, casual, not ready to jump up and escape.
She smiled. “So, tell me about your company. You know, while we wait for Mr. Dawson.”
He relaxed and launched into the tale, thankful to have a reason to talk and not sound like the world’s oldest high school geek trying to flirt with the prom queen. She asked a lot of questions, kept him talking. And after about a half hour, he was laughing with her at his tale of trying to empty a brewing vessel full of wet grains and dumping about ten pounds of the stuff all over himself.
At one point she brushed her hair back, and his breath caught in his throat at the glimpse of her long neck and the small indent between her collarbones. He had no idea what that was, that soft spot that seemed to pulse with her heartbeat. But he wanted to put his tongue there very, very badly. Allowing his eyes to flicker over her profile, the striking angles of her face, he gulped, looked away.
Getting a grip, he pulled a business card from his portfolio and handed it to her. “I’d love to talk with you more,” he said, trying to ease his voice down from its high-pitched nervous whine to a sexier, more natural tone. “But since I don’t even know your name…” He looked at the nameplate on the desk. It was blank.
She leaned back, propped her high heels on the desk in a strange move that had him instantly on edge and practically panting with horniness.
“Uh, so,” he glanced at his watch, his nerves dancing up and down his spine once more, “if you are interested, maybe we could, you know, go out. Have a beer? Keep chatting?” He closed his eyes, unable to bear his own flop sweat another minute. “Never mind.” He slumped back in his seat. Where the “Master Dom” Evan Adams had hidden he did not know, but damned if the guy was staying there and leaving this ridiculous, stuttering loser in his place.
The silence spun out about a minute longer than was truly polite. He finally looked up at her. She was staring at him over the tops of her shoes, her head tilted to the side as if wondering why the hell he was even cluttering up her space. Finally, the doors to his left opened and a tall, good-looking guy in a suit stood there, surprise clear on his face. “Julie,” he said. “We’ve been looking all over for you. Your nine o’clock appointment isn’t here yet but…”
The woman held up a hand, silencing the man but keeping her eyes pinned on Evan’s. His heart sped up and that familiar, yet nearly forgotten, roaring sound started up in his ears once more.
Julie Dawson. J. Dawson. The person he’d been communicating with through his… or her… secretary.
Holy. Fucking. Shit.
He stood, furious that she’d sat there and let him babble on like a bloody idiot for nearly forty-five minutes. “Well, that was fun,” he said, staring her down, or attempting to. But his skin was both on fire and cold at once. Something about the woman made him have to hang on to his laptop case tight, just to keep from stepping close and kissing those full red lips so hard she would be his in an instant. “Or not. Thanks for your time.”
“No, no, don’t go,” she said, getting to her feet in one fluid, sexy move. She was over six feet tall in her shoes, curvy, womanly, and sending out the sort of signals he had not intercepted in a long time – too long, if the way he was overreacting was any indication. “Really, I want to know why you think my company would be in any way interested in yours.”
He processed her barb, clenched his jaw, and poured out the reasons behind why Dawson would benefit from jumping on his bandwagon now, in the early days, so they could grow the brand in a key market together. She listened, standing behind the stupid receptionist’s desk, her assistant wildly typing notes on his tablet.
Finally, she held up a hand again. “How very… creative.” She walked around to the front of the desk, giving him an eye-popping full view of her. She was like sex on two perfect female legs, the exact body type he craved – full breasts and hips, cinched in but not obnoxiously small waist, long hair, and legs that went on and on… and on. “And, um, Evan?”
He jumped back, hearing his name again.
“Yeah, my eyes are up here. But never mind. I’m used to being ogled, and by way more successful brewery owners than you.” She held his business card between thumb and forefinger, as if it were made of dog shit. “Tell you what, why don’t you let me ponder your… proposal. And assume that your eye-fucking session won’t happen again.”
She turned from him and walked away without a word. Her assistant shrugged and followed her back in, leaving Evan breathless, furious, and never more aware of his neglected libido.

Welcome to Sugarbeat’s Books – The Home of the Romance Novel!
Welcome also to Steamy Saturdays! This is the day of the week when we get to talk about a book that is on the steamier side of Romance. This week’s selection is One Queen with Two Kings by Louisa Neil. I enjoyed this book and I hope you enjoy my thoughts about it!
One Queen with Two Kings by Louisa Neil
ASIN: B0068NF4LS
Publisher: Siren Publishing
Release: Nov 16, 2011
Source: I received a copy of this book to read and review from TRRBlurb:
On the morning of her second wedding, Thea realizes marrying Lloyd is a mistake and learns his ultimate motive is to gain control of her family business. When confronted, Lloyd admits lying. His bombshell confession is that he gave the search team false coordinates, wanting Thea for himself instead of looking for Dexter and Russell’s crash site. When the men are found alive, they bring home proof that their plane was sabotaged by Lloyd. While reconnecting with her husband and his friend, she realizes their relationship changed. Catching the men in a compromising sexual position reinforces her theory. Accepting Dexter and Russell had become intimate while on the island is earth-shattering. She’s floored when they suggest combining the two relationships into one, a threesome the men have dreamed about. Can she share her husband with his best friend? Can she be the queen with two kings?
One Queen with Two Kings is a menage that I picked up to read some time ago. From the blurb it seemed like an interesting concept for a story. Two best friends, Russell and Dexter, crash land a plane on a deserted island and are there alone for 2 years before they are found. In the meantime, one of the men’s wives has moved on and this book starts on her wedding day to another man. Realizing that she is making a big mistake, Thea backs out of the wedding, and the past two years, complete with all the false stories that her supposedly loving fiance has been spreading about her come to light. She comes to the conclusion that her husband and his friend might not be dead after all, and re-opens the search for them. The men decide that what happens on the island stays on the island, but they aren’t able to keep that promise after their rescue.
This is an ultra hot little menage story. At the beginning, it seems to be a bit over the top with the manipulative fiance, but everything fits into place after a few chapters. I loved reading about the relationship between these three people. Although this story is an erotic menage, it is truly written as a happily every after romance. Such a treat to read!
One Queen with Two Kings can be purchased at Amazon
Welcome to Sugarbeat’s Books – The Home of the Romance Novel!
Welcome also to Steamy Saturday! This is the day of the week that I post my thoughts on a romance that is on the steamier side! Nothing on but the Radio is a story that I read some time ago. I received a copy from The Romance Reviews in exchange for an honest review. Hope you enjoy my thoughts.
Nothing on but the Radio by Jodi Lynn CopelandISBN: 978-1-61118-419-8Publisher: Loose-Id.comRelease: May 2011Source: I received a copy of this book to read and review from TRRBlurb: To hell with her critics; Taryn James is going to make it in the songwriting industry. If only Brian Macovney weren’t standing in her way. Gorgeous he may be, but he’s also nasty, trampling on her dreams by insulting her lyrics and all because he once failed to deliver in bed.It’s been five years since Brian had his ego cut down its knees when he failed to perform sexually with Taryn. Now he’s forced to see her again, at the Sugarfoot Island songwriting conference, which he attends as a sponsor and she an aspiring songwriter. From nearly the moment of their reunion, Brian recognizes two truths: Taryn is a highly talented songwriter. And Brian’s eager to regale her with talents of his own…in his bed, on his balcony, bent over the edge of his Jacuzzi tub…Taryn can’t decipher what’s hotter, her need for revenge, or the feel of sexy-hot Brian in her arms, their body’s joined together and slick with passion. Temptation this good is damned hard to pass up.The rules are firm…no relations between the conference staff and songwriters…but then the conference hasn’t actually started, and weren’t rules made to be broken?Publisher’s Note: This book contains explicit sexual content, graphic language, and situations that some readers may find objectionable: anal play/intercourse.
Isn’t it great to get one more kick at the can? The one night that goes spectacularly wrong in your life, you get a chance to do over. Would you take it? Can you get past a horrendous first date?
Nothing on but the Radio is a short story about Taryn James, who is determined to succeed as a songwriter, and her nemesis, Brian Macovney. Several years before Taryn and Brian had a bad one night stand ending with Brian lashing out at Taryn by telling her she would never succeed at songwriting. Here it is some time later and Taryn decides to sign up for a songwriting conference, knowing that Brian would be there. She decides to face down her one and only bad date – the man she hasn’t been able to forget.
This short little story is hot and graphic. It even comes with it’s own warning from the publisher! Certainly not for the faint of heart. It is, however, a story about a first date that ends in bad sex and how the couple recovers from that point so the sex is the central theme of the book. At first I felt that both the main characters were quite self-centered, but it was interesting to see how they changed and grew over the space of this story! Although the story only covers about 140 pages, it has the feel of a full novel. This is a neat little read. Pick up a copy and give it a read.
Nothing On But The Radio is available at Amazon
Welcome to Sugarbeat’s Books – The Home of the Romance Novel.
Today we are welcoming Amelia James to the blog! She has written a hot book filled with spicy stories that I have a few thoughts on. First let’s learn some more about this book and then I’ll follow that with my thoughts.
Enjoy!
Don’t tempt me…. Erin wants her husband to rip her clothes off… literally. Does she dare provoke him? Natalie wants to make love outdoors. Can she convince her shy husband? Melissa wants the bad boy she just met in a bar. Should she or shouldn’t she? And Heather watches from a secret room….
These women and others like them know what they want in bed. But sometimes they have to be a little extra bold to get it. Watch them bring their naughtiest fantasies to life in some very interesting ways.
It wasn’t my idea… the devil made me do it.
This second edition of my couples’ erotica anthology includes four new stories! The Bargain – Her Part; The Bargain – His Part; Under His Kilt; and Sugar and Spice.
Excerpt
The Bargain – Her Part
“Watch with me for a while and see what comes up.”
“I suppose you think watching porn is foreplay.”
“As much as reading it is.”
She wanted to argue, but she couldn’t deny that reading a descriptive love scene turned her on. “All right. I’ll watch this with you, if you’ll read one of my books with me.”
“Sounds fair. Just make sure you read me the juicy parts. None of the mushy stuff.”
“Agreed. But I want to see some naked men. All this girl stuff is….” She caught her breath as a woman on the screen tugged her own nipples and moaned while another woman licked between her spread legs. “Okay, it’s hot, but I want man flesh, too.” She sat in his lap and rubbed her butt against the ridge in his jeans.
“You got it.” He clicked a couple of links and showed her a gallery of images. “I think you’ll like this one.” He clicked play.
The video started with a man with long, flowing hair and rock-hard muscles dressed as a cowboy tossing bales of hay onto a wagon. “Wow, he’s hot.”
Charlie nibbled her shoulder. “I know what my baby wants.”
A sexy cowgirl wearing microscopic cut-off jeans and a barely-there shirt offered him a drink. He downed it in one gulp, then took the pitcher from her and poured it over her mountainous cleavage. She tried to act offended, but she wasn’t very good at it, and her shirt ended up at her feet. “They’re terrible actors.”
“No one watches porn for the acting, honey.”
“Good point. He’s got a nice body. Wow!”
The cowboy’s pants hit the ground, and the cowgirl dropped to her knees to suck his huge cock. “How can she get that whole thing in her mouth?”
“Mmm… practice?” His hand snaked under her shirt, and her nipple hardened before his fingers even touched it.
He unzipped her jeans and wiggled his fingers into her panties. She squirmed in her husband’s lap, her thighs splayed while he teased her. “I like that.”
“I thought you would.”
“No. I meant I like watching him take his clothes off.”
Charlie laughed softly against her shoulder, making circles on her skin with his tongue. “I can tell.” His fingers slipped on the wet, pulsing nub between her legs, and she moaned.
“Do they always leave their shoes on?”
He blinked at the screen.
The cowgirl had draped her legs over the cowboy’s shoulders, and dug into his back with her boots. He spread her thighs wide and exposed her pink flesh to the camera.
Charlie grunted. “I never noticed.”
The porn star moaned and writhed while her partner licked her pussy. “Oh, here’s where the acting starts,” said Andrea.
“Think so?”
“No one comes that fast.”
“We’ll see.” He pulled her shirt off and massaged her breasts, pinching her nipples between his fingers.
“Mmm… I like that.” She moaned and leaned back into his arms. “You, I mean.”

The Devil Made Me Do It is available:
The Devil Made Me Do It is a great anthology! The title from the ecopy reads: “The Devil Made Me Do It – A Collection of Wickedly Fun Love Stories.” I must say! This is the perfect description for this collection of relatively short, spicy stories! This anthology has 17…..well let’s call them fantasies. They are little clips of changes that couples make in their sex life. Things that they try, things that they find thrilling, things that bring a little spice to their normal life.
I have trouble reviewing a collection of stories. What do I say? Which stories do I talk about, because frankly if I talked about them all, we’d be here quite some time. I usually mention a few that I liked – so here goes!
Of all the stories, I liked the vast majority, so choosing just a few is difficult. I enjoyed “Midnight Rendevous.” This is the tale of a woman who meets her husband for a fantasy filled night away at an old Scottish Castle. Her fantasy was to be loved by two men. When she arrives at the room, her husband quickly overwhelms her, blindfolds her and ties her to the bed. She can only assume that it is her husband loving her, but when she feels a second set of hands on her, she is amazed that her husband has made her secret fantasy come true. “A Quickie – Mattress Inventory.” This is the story of a woman, bored with being at home while her was at work, she decides to visit him at work – at a national furniture chain store. Lucky her, finds him stuck doing inventory in the back. She takes advantage of his boredom to get a quickie before heading back home. “The Bargain – Her Part and The Bargain – His Part” are back to back stories of what happens when she joins him watching a little porn, and what happens when he gets to read some smutty romance novels. Both stories are great and an interesting perspective of each situation!
Obviously, in a collection like this, some stories will appeal more than others, but that is just personal preference. All these stories are well written, and fast paced. This book is well worth picking up a copy and having a read! Very well done!

Today we are welcoming Kristabel Reed to the blog! She’s the author of Seduction of my Proper Wife and is touring with Goddessfish promotions to create some buzz about her book. She’s going to share some information about her book with us.
Kristabel will be giving away an eBook copy of any backlist title and one randomly drawn commenter from this tour will receive a $25 Amazon or Barnes & Noble gift card plus a copy of any eBook backlisted title. To increase your chances of winning, click HERE to find other blogs to comment on.
Barb – Tell us about your new release?
Kristabel – Seduction of my Proper Wife is a thinking woman’s erotica. It takes Victorian sentiments on sex and so totally turns them on their ear; Victorian prudishness meets ménage happily ever after. I enjoy taking an historic plot device and twisting it. What better way to twist it than make it into a ménage?
Philip Thornton only wanted to help his frigid wife enjoy their marriage bed.
Lillian agreed, but once freed from her past, hadn’t expected such a fierce transformation.
Aria was paid to educate and entice, but what she found was more than she ever dreamed possible.
The Parisian Exposition of 1889…the world is changing and the three of them are caught in its whirl. Philip and Lillian went to Paris to save their marriage and to help Lillian overcome her fears. Aria danced and seduced Lillian, but before Lillian left, Aria found herself seduced, in turn, by the beautiful Englishwoman.
When Philip and Lillian break all the rules and escort Aria around Paris for a week, will it be the beginning of their future? Or will this seductive interlude be nothing more than a dream?
Barb – What’s your current guilty pleasure?
Kristabel – Chocolate is the eternal favorite, however I’d have to say my current one is Chris Hemsworth. I’ll see anything with him in it. J
Barb – If you wouldn’t be a writer, what you would be?
Kristabel – Congress or the senate or a local office because I always feel I can do a better job than our current politicians. But with my luck (and writing history!) I’d probably be involved in a ménage sex scandal.
Barb – What are your favorite hobbies?
Kristabel – Reading, TV, movies, gardening, beach, travel to new places or old favorites. I love to see new places to use for research.
Barb – What do you love about writing?
Kristabel – I get to play in the imagination sandbox and call it my job! I love imagining new stories!
Barb – Why did you choose the genre you write in?
Kristabel – My publisher had a hole in her lineup for a ménage historical anthology and asked if I’d fill it. I’d never written a ménage before, but said yes. Once I finished that short story, I wanted to write a longer ménage, to really get a feel for the characters and flesh them out. After that first one, it snowballed from there and now I can’t imagine not writing them!
Barb – Where do you get your inspiration?
Kristabel – For Seduction of my Proper Wife, I had read Devil in the White City and wanted to set a story either during a World’s Fair or at least in Victorian Era Chicago. In that one they talk about this World’s Fair, so I looked up Paris 1889. Not much on it, but it was fascinating enough and with the Eiffel Tower there almost too exotic a setting to ignore. Given what I write, it had to be a ménage, lol, but I am enjoying the setting itself. I love the research I can do on Paris 1889. If you get a chance to read Devil in the White City or Eiffel’s Tower, do so.
Barb – How many books do you read/month?
Kristabel – I tend not to read a romance or ménage while writing because I don’t want to accidently take away something from that story and use it in mine. But I’d say on average, I read about 5-7 books. Between ebooks, library books, and audio books, it’s easy to juggle.
And I enjoy a very wide variety of stories, non-fiction historicals, spiritual things like finding your animal spirit, thrillers, YA books (some) children’s books, and especially romance.
Barb – Do you prefer Twitter or Facebook?
Kristabel – Twitter. I can update that frequently and not compete with cute animal pictures. While I enjoy those pictures I find facebook very crowded and cumbersome. Course Twitter is shorter, 140 characters and all. So if anyone wants to start a conversation you can find me at @kristabelreed
Barb – What are your thoughts on ebooks? (i.e. love them, hate them, wave of the future)
Kristabel – Love them, they are the wave of the future. Don’t get me wrong, I love holding a book, but let’s face it; I can download an almost infinite number of books onto an e-reader or tablet and not have to lug them physically around.
And, too, there’s the shame factor—like you’re buying a box of condoms at the pharmacy where your date’s father works. I doubt very much anyone would buy my books if they had to go into a bookstore and have everyone stare at them with a threesome on the cover and words like Victorian Ménage in the title. With an e-book you can download it and not worry who’s looking at you because they probably won’t be able to see what you’re reading!
Barb – If you could ask your readers one question, what would it be?
Kristabel – I was going to talk about my upcoming releases, but I really like this question instead. So what would I ask? I’d ask what they like to see in a story. Plot is important, I’m in total agreement, but what sort of plot? What do you like in a story, in a romance, in an historical, in a ménage?
Thanks for hosting me, I look forward to chatting with everyone!
BLURB:
Philip Thornton adored his new bride but found she was frigid in their marriage bed.
Lillian did not know how to ease her fear of the bed until she was freed from her past.
Aria was paid to educate and entice, but what she found was more than she ever dreamed possible.
The Parisian Exposition of 1889…the world is changing and the three of them are caught in its whirl. Philip and Lillian went to Paris to save their marriage and to help Lillian overcome her fears.

Excerpt:
Puzzled at such a dichotomy, she allowed Philip to pull her along. They passed a pair of men sitting cross-legged on the ground. They smoked from a long tube attached to a tall, thin, glass spiral of some sort. Fascinated, Lillian tried not to stare, it was rude after all, but wondered what the contraption was called and what the men smoked from its cloudy insides.
They entered a building with beautifully mysterious music and slight tinkling sounds. When Lillian looked up, she saw the dancers. They wore swaths of sheer fabric for skirts, covered in dozens and dozens of gold coins. Their bellies were bare, but their faces veiled.
Philip, still silent as he’d been since leaving their hotel room, guided her through the crowd to the front of the stage. Lillian, almost entranced by the sight, didn’t care who saw her or what they thought, she watched, mesmerized by the way these women’s bodies moved.
It was the most sensual thing she’d ever seen, and Lillian knew she should be ashamed, but couldn’t be. The danced ended and the women filed off stage. The crowd waited, clearly waiting like she was, to see if more was to come. But nothing more happened, save the men playing their strange instruments continued to do so.
As the crowd left the room, Philip smiled tenderly down at her and she felt that same fluttering in her belly she had the first time he’d done so. Straightening her shoulders, Lillian vowed to make this work. Even if she had to…

Welcome to Sugarbeat’s Books – The Home of the Romance Novel
Today we are welcoming Kay Jaybee to the blog! She is here to answer some questions and to share some information about her latest release, The Collector. If this sounds like something that you would be interested in reading, please use the buy links at the bottom of the post to pick up a copy!
Kay – Thanks for inviting me over today!
Barb – Try to describe your book in one sentence.
Kay – The Collector is a compendium of erotic experiences gathered by a female narrator whose hobby is ‘collecting’ the sexual adventures of others and writing them down, while occasionally indulging in some hands-on research herself.
Barb – Tell me a little about yourself
Kay – I’m a neurotic introvert, who manages to hide the fact that I’m terribly shy by hiding behind my ‘Kay Jaybee’ persona! Kay is a lot braver than the ‘real’ me! I adore balancing my double life as an erotica writer on the one hand, and wife and mother on the other!
I confess, after 7 years of writing kinky stories, I still can’t quite believe that this is what I’m doing- I trained as an archaeologist and historian!!
Barb – Do you write at a laptop/desktop or do you write freehand?
Kay – I write all my stories long hand into an ever growing collection of notebooks. Only when a chapter or short story is completely drafted, do I transfer it onto my lap top. I find that the process of rewriting it from paper to screen works well as an editing tool.
Barb – Do you have a day job?
Kay – My writing life is very much part time. I also work for a Distance Learning Company, as an administrative assistant. I’m very lucky, as I do this job from home, so if there is less work than usual I get extra writing time!
Barb – How long did it take you to write your current book?
Kay – The Collector took me just over 18 months to write, largely because the stories all needed- well, collecting!
I first wrote The Collector four years ago, and it is its re-launch I am celebrating at the moment. Each of the 21 stories in the book are linked together with a brief narration as to how the individual tales came to ‘the collector’s’ attention.
Here’s the blurb for you-
The Collector sits silently alone, engrossed in her tales
of lust, submission and dominance. Has she already
engraved your erotic exploits on her salacious list?
She may look like she is scribbling randomly in her
notebook, but she is secretly listening to, and recording,
the overheard fantasies and indiscretions of others.
Forever hungry for stories, when The Collector’s
sources run dry, her appetite for tales of instruction and
voyeurism drives her to do some research of her own
before sharing her provocative experiments on paper.
It is time for the worlds raunchiest
chronicler to come to light.
Barb – What were the challenges in bringing this book to life?
Kay – The major challenge for me with The Collector was learning how to go about getting it published! I’d had over 40 short stories published prior to writing The Collector, but hadn’t got a clue about how to go about finding a publisher for my first solo work. When Austin & Macauley took a gamble on me as a pretty much unpublished writer, and took on my linked-anthology, I was over the moon- and I couldn’t be more grateful to them, for arranging this re-launch now!
Barb – How did you come up with your premise for your books?
Kay – I think it’s true to say I get my ideas and inspiration from anywhere and everywhere. In the case of The Collector, the initial idea came to me while sat in the departures lounge of Heathrow airport awaiting a flight to Aberdeen. One of my oldest friends had just phoned me to tell me about an article in The Observer newspaper all about erotic writers. He was adamant the time was right for me to branch out from short stories and to try a book all of my own.
I admit the idea of writing a novel about one set of characters was rather daunting at the time, although I’ve written 6 single story line novels and novella’s since that time (The Perfect Submissive, The Voyeur, Making Him Wait, A Sticky Situation, The Circus and Not Her Type).
As I sat in the airport, watching people rush around, I began to think about what stories they would all have to tell if I was brave enough to ask them…and then I began to listen to what people were talking about, to watch how people behaved- and then I started to write it all down… The Collector was born.
Barb - What book is currently on your nightstand?
Kay – I am currently reading Dodger by Terry Pratchett- I just love his Discworld series, and this is a very interesting spin off idea!!
Barb – Where can your fans find you?
Kay – I can be found via my web site www.kayjaybee.me.uk – there you can connect with me via Twitter and Facebook, leave comments, and see details of all my books, past, present and future.
Barb - Do you ever run into someone who says “You write WHAT?”
Kay – This happens a lot!! I generally keep what I write a secret, simply because people have very strange ideas about erotica writers, and I have young children to consider. When I do tell someone what I do though, they always look shocked! I just love seeing their faces- you can almost see the cogs of their brain turning as they wonder if I’m joking or not!
Barb - What projects are you currently working on right now? Would you mind sharing them with us?
Kay – I am currently working hard at promoting my new novel Making Him Wait (Sweetmeats Press) and my new anthology, The Best of Kay Jaybee (Xcite), as well as writing a brand new novella for the Xcite Secret Library range. After that I have a project to do outside of erotica (I’m sworn to secrecy), and then I am going to hit novel number 4!!

Excerpt:
Banished Hero
Her head spun in a slow circle when he lowered her to the ground. Dark eyes met hers. His body covered hers, holding her in place with no room to wiggle away from him.
“You’ve been denying your need for too long. Your young body has had no release for the transformation of your skin.” He growled with a need that appeared to match her own.
Her nails dug into his shirt trying to rip the material free from his body. He grabbed her wrists and placed them above her head.
“So help me,” Faye Lynn begged. She didn’t recognize the needy voice that spoke to him. All her senses were alive, tingling with awareness, demanding attention. The drops of moisture from the lake, dry instantly from the heat radiating from her skin. The soft bed of grass under her tinkled her back. “Please, I need you inside me.”
His dark onyx eyes slid over her face and down the length of her neck to her breasts. She saw his thick tongue stroke his lips, an erotic invitation to pleasures she knew he could give her.
She’d made love before, but never had she felt such a consuming desire to mate. Her legs tightened around his waist, rubbing the center of her heat against him. She begged him to give her relief. “Please satisfy my hunger.”
