WORDS OF LUST by Lise Horton

“You look good enough to eat, Professor,” Nick said as they dressed for the party. The expression in his dark eyes seconded his words.

She smiled. She had never in her life dressed for a man. Tonight she’d wanted to shine, and his approval made her feel warm—all over.

She looked at her reflection with pleased surprise. The black lace overdress hugged her curves. It was low-cut and accentuated her breasts to the point she was going to worry all night long about a wardrobe malfunction.

He had surprised her that afternoon with a tiny navy boutique bag that held frothy, delicate and miniscule lingerie. The glint of desire in his eyes as she’d pulled them out of the wrapping kept coming back to her as she dressed.

He studied her. “Sorry I was shaving when you dressed. I was looking forward to watching you shimmy into those undies.”

“I’ve never worn a thong before.” His hands resting on her shoulders felt heavy and possessive. She could smell his musky cologne. It was nothing overwhelming, but blended with the earthy, masculine smell of him. Most definitely good enough to eat.

“How does it feel?”

“It feels…kinky.” She wiggled.

“Get used to it.” His teeth closed on her earlobe, biting with just enough pressure to send a little sting of pleasure through her. The breath in her lungs came out in a sigh, and she grew wetter. She had a feeling he planned on keeping her aroused all night long.

“Tell me what you want,” he said, his voice low and husky. “Or maybe there’s something you don’t want.”

 

“I don’t want to be in control.” The words slipped out. “I just want to be and feel. Just for a little while.”

 

He leaned in again and his lips touched her ear. “Lucky for you, I like to be the one calling the shots.”

 

His tongue licked her earlobe and she groaned. Had she really said those words out loud? Really asked a man, a virtual stranger who could make a woman’s panties wet with just one look, to take control in bed? What if he misunderstood? She didn’t want to have to think or ask for what she needed; she just wanted him to know. But was that even possible? And what if he took charge by tying her to the bed? She might have a panic attack if she couldn’t get up and leave.

 

But wasn’t it time she finally let herself go? Maybe a little panic was good. Her carefully organized life would still be waiting for her in the morning.

 

“Come upstairs with me.” It was a command, a gentle one, but she knew from his tone he’d taken over.

THE RIGHTEOUS AND THE WICKED by April Emerson

50 SHADES OF SEXY BLOG TOUR

August 1 – September 20

 

He reluctantly lifts his lips from her body and kneels before her. Running his hands over her bruised and scraped calf, he kisses her knees and caresses the unspeakably soft skin of her thighs. He wants to worship her; to adore her for accepting him as he is. Slowly, he slides the hem of her dress up and grips the lace of her panties.

"Eric, wait…" She doesn't want to stop him, but she knows this is his drug. It would be wrong to enable him with her selfish desire.

Eric refutes her plea, "No. No waiting."

She submits and helps him to slide the thin fabric barrier from her body. She's completely exposed to him and Eric feels unworthy of the sight before him. He wants to take her roughly, right here on the stairs, but he won't. Earning her forgiveness is his only goal. He licks his lips and lowers his head between her thighs.

Emma gasps before he has even touched her. The anticipation of what he's about to do is driving her out of her mind. She pants. "Wait. Shut the door. Turn out the light…"

He gives her a sly grin. "Emma, I think we both know you don't want me to do that."

READY FOR THE BOSS by Anna DePalo

 

50 SHADES OF SEXY BLOG TOUR

August 1 – September 20

 

 

Emily walked into the office with her head down.  How does a woman follow up blogging about pubic hair?

“How was the Brazilian?”

Emily stifled a groan as her head jerked up.  Of course, her boss would be the first person she ran into.  “Can we leave the locker room out of this?”

Cameron grinned. “The football team didn’t get Brazilians.”

“Am I supposed to read a double meaning in that one?”

“I’ve never dated a beauty queen.”

“Not even a cheerleader?”

“Nope.”

Her heart fluttered.  No, no, and no.  Former Mr. Captain of the Football Team was still off limits. 

“Aren’t you the least afraid of sexual harassment charges?” she parried.

Cameron sobered.  “It’s not harassment if you’re writing a blog.”

“At your request.”

“It’s a good business decision,” he defended, his eyes crinkling.  “I didn’t think we’d get to the Brazilian on the second date—uh, post—though.”

“I had to come up with something!”

He arched a brow.  “How’s it going with your Mr. Hypothetical?  I thought for sure you’d be talking about the hypothetical third base in your blog.”

She deliberately widened her eyes.  “You played baseball, too?”

“Play.  Present tense.  I’m still in the game.”

For her peace of mind, she fervently wished he wasn’t anymore, but at thirty-four, he was still hot.  Very hot.

A COWGIRL’S PASSION by Charlotte Rose

 

50 SHADES OF SEXY BLOG TOUR

August 1 – September 20

 

 

Jake took her hand and looked deeply into her eyes with a love and passion she'd never seen in a man before.

"Ashley Jane, you're 21 and not a minor anymore, but you're 10 years younger than me and your dad will have my hide if I mess with his little girl."

"I'm not a little girl anymore, Jake."

 "No," she said, knowing he was confirming her virginity. "But I want to be ... with you."

"Ah, Ashley, there will be a young man who can offer you the world you deserve. You'll be glad you saved yourself."

Ashley felt the tears stinging her eyes but she was determined to get what she wanted. She reached up and took hold of his beautiful face with both hands and kissed him passionately. Jake couldn't resist her warm lips, and the closeness of her. His mind was anguished –she was the boss’ daughter– but he loved her and always had. He took her into the warmth of his big arms and chest. She melted into him as their kiss deepened.

Then she pulled back slightly and gazed at him in a way that stripped away his last ounce of resistance and caused passion to stir just south of his belt buckle.

"Make love to me, Jake," she pleaded softly, the words slipping out so fast she couldn't catch them if she tried.

He kissed the top of her head and sighed. He knew this love could no longer be ignored.

THE SECRET OF NARAVA by Isabo Kelly

 

50 SHADES OF SEXY BLOG TOUR

August 1 – September 20

 

“Are you okay?”

Nathan hadn’t moved any closer, so Ti'ann turned her head to look at him. Her smile shook a little. “Yeah, I’m fine. Grateful to see you. He scares the shit out of me. What did you have to talk to me about?”

He stalked toward her, his face suddenly full of emotion, and most of it looked like anger. She stumbled away from the tree, not so grateful to see him anymore. He came toward her like a beam from a laser cannon, all focus and power and deadly intent. She backed away, tripped over a root, her feet tangled and she came up hard against another tree. By the time she’d freed her feet, he was in front of her, pushing her back against the trunk.

She sucked in a breath. His hands were hard on her shoulders, his eyes hooded and impossible to read. “What?” Panic tickled through her again. Just when a woman thought she was safe!

“Never do anything like that again. He’s dangerous.”

“He’s not the only one,” she whispered.

“You’re right. He’s not.”

And suddenly his mouth was on hers, her body flush against his. She was so surprised she stood immobile while her stomach exploded with giddy heat. Oh my god! Nathan Longfeather was kissing her. And he was kissing her like he wanted her, like he’d kissed her that first time three years ago.

STOLEN SPRING by Louisa Rawlings

 

50 SHADES OF SEXY BLOG TOUR

August 1 – September 20

 

SETUP:  1700 France. Marie-Rouge has fled her lecherous suitor from Versailles and stumbled into the cottage of Pierre leBrun, a humble country miller. He gives her refuge, and their weeks together slowly ripen into passion. Here is the scene as they make their way home from a village fair after a night of love:


“Woman, if you value your life…” He gave a low moan, half in pain, half in ecstasy.

She looked up, startled out of her sensual reverie, aware suddenly that she had been thinking of his making love to her. “Does this vex you?” she asked in surprise. His face was taut, a small muscle working in his jaw. She glanced down and saw the unmistakable bulge that betrayed his feelings. She smiled. He, too, was thinking of their night of passion. “Why must we be in such a hurry to return?” she murmured. Delighted at her unexpected power, she continued to fondle the hairs on his forearm.

None too gently he removed her hand from his arn. “The grain,” he said. “I should get to it today.”

“Yes, of course. The grain. The grain is very important.” She began to hum.

He eyed her with suspicion. “Now what?”

“Why, nothing! We must get back to sift the grain today, n’est-ce pas? Surely it can’t wait until tomorrow!” She resumed her song.

“Don’t touch my arm,” he warned.

“I wouldn’t dream of touching your arm,” she said, and put her hand firmly over the bulge of his groin.

BECAUSE THIS IS FOREVER by Lena Hart

  

50 SHADES OF SEXY BLOG TOUR

August 1 – September 20

Nate leaned down and kissed her on the back of her neck. Mia shivered. No matter where or how many, his kiss always left her light-headed.

“I asked what’s for dessert,” he repeated, kissing her again.

Mia turned in his arms, laughing. “That’s so clichéd, you know.”

“What do you mean?” he asked with mock disbelief.

She rolled her eyes. “Oh, please. You say ‘what’s for dessert’ then I say something ordinary and then you say something cheesy like wanting me for dessert.”

He looked down at her, thoughtful. “Hmm, that does sound like something I’d say. But this hungry man could actually still eat.”

“Oh,” Mia said, a little embarrassed by her rash assumption. He was serious. Then again, he wasn’t a small guy and could honestly still be hungry. “Well…,” she began lamely, “I don’t have anything else to feed you.”

Nate’s eyes sparkled. “Yeah you do,” he whispered. He placed his hands on both sides of her on the counter, trapping her between his solid frame and the sink. “I said I could still eat.”

Mia paused, confused. Then she recognized the heated suggestion in his eyes and laughed. “You’re bad,” she murmured, shoving at his hard chest.

He leaned in closer, his lips only a breath away from hers. “And you like it.”

THE FATAL KISS by Mina Lobo

50 SHADES OF SEXY

August 1 – September 20

 

 

Hades’ hand slid up her torso to settle on one pert breast over the gown she wore. Persephone let out a low moan and ceased her movements. Her chest swelled with a deep inhalation, which forced her nipple to press against his thumb.

“Hades…” Persephone sighed against his cheek. Her hands slid down to his shoulders and delicately kneaded them once. Then again.

Hades said carefully, “You…want me to stop.”

The goddess pulled back just enough so she could meet his gaze. “I want to…understand you. And myself…”

His throat convulsed as he swallowed, hard. “Tell me what you want me to do.”

She looked down at his hand, which had slipped away from her breast. Then her eyes drifted to the brooch that held the top of her chiton in place. Finally, Persephone met his stare. She squeezed his shoulders a third time, slowly. “I want you to do…more.”

Hades raised his hand to the brooch.

Persephone let out a long, lush breath.

He unfastened the jeweled clasp. The gown slithered down her breasts until they were bared to him.

“More,” she commanded softly.

Hades cupped one reverently. “Like this?”

“…more…” Persephone repeated, her head falling back.

Hades’ thumb gave her exposed nipple a deliberate stroke.

She shivered, then reached for his face to reclaim his lips. “More,” the goddess breathed into his mouth.

The Lord of the Underworld made haste to obey.

SUGAR by Jenna Jameson and Hope Tarr

50 SHADES OF SEXY BLOG TOUR

August 1 – September 20

 

NOTE:  Below is my sexy teaser submission from SUGAR, my hardcover debut written with Jenna Jameson (Skyhorse, October 2013):


Cole, her rescuer, surveyed her metal ice cream dish with definite disapproval. “Single scoop, plain vanilla, huh? I wouldn’t have figured you for a vanilla girl.”

The gleam in his eye told her the double entendre was entirely intended. Determined to give as good as she got, Sarah smiled back. “Every flavor has its charm. Sometimes plain vanilla is exactly what I’m in the mood for.”

He cocked his head to the side, his deep blue eyes fixing on hers. “And other times?”

Deliberately, she ran her tongue along her lower lip, savoring the last trace of sticky sweetness. “I like all the flavors.”

ENCHANTING HIM by Flora Vesna

 

50 SHADES OF SEXY BLOG TOUR

August 1 – September 20

 

Suddenly, he pulled back and grasped my face.

The rumble that I had grown accustomed to became a roar. “Allegra.”

He grabbed the nape of my neck, clamping his lips over mine. His tongue pried my lips open, desperate for entry. With his left arm diagonally pressed across my back and his hand on my shoulder blade, he pinned me tight into his chest, a slate of marble against my curves.

My mouth widened as I accepted his tongue. We began to devour each other. I wanted him so much. My hands coiled around his neck, one fisted in his hair, the other around his shirt collar. The taste of him was pure ecstasy for my mouth. I couldn’t stop, and neither could he.

We weren’t acting like horny teenagers. We were primal creatures in heat.  

When we finally came up for air, I laid my head on his shoulder with my hands at my sides. His hands fell down to my hips from exhaustion. We were panting, desperate for oxygen.

My chest was heaving against his. “Oh my God.”

“I know.”

Davison slightly leaned to his left, pressing a button and speaking into an intercom. “Charles, take the scenic route.”

That piqued my curiosity. “Scenic route?”

“Stoplights.”

Oh God, yes.

“I need time for something I’ve wanted to do for weeks.”

“What?”

“Making you come.”

MYSTICAL WONDERS: SECOND CHANCES by Karen Cino

 

50 SHADES OF SEXY BLOG TOUR

August 1 – September 20

He pushed her hair off her neck as he planted tiny kisses that tickled. She rotated her head from side to side giving Dino complete control of her body. He stepped back for a brief moment, just long enough to pull her black shirt over her head.

They fell onto the bed with Dino resting on his side, his lips sweeping down her neck to her breasts. He teased her, playing with the lace on her bra. She moaned, feeling the ripple effect of the material against her nipples.

She ran her fingers through his hair as he slipped his hands under her chest to unhook her bra. The rush she felt going through her body drove her wild. Before he could devour her breasts, she lifted his chin up and licked his lips, beckoning him to meet hers.

“I missed this,” she whispered. “I missed feeling and tasting your lips. I can’t get enough of you.”

“Me too.”

“Being with you here feels so right. I feel so alive, powerful, waiting to take on the world. Nothing could ever ruin this moment, this feeling I have for you. I don’t ever want to lose this again,” she whispered, her body tingling.

“And you won’t. We made our mistakes many years ago. Things are different now. We have plenty of time to talk.”

“Make love to me. Make me feel whole again.”

“Don’t do this to me. I’m not going to let you tease me.”

Ignoring him, Madison knelt on the bed. She pushed him on his back before running her fingers along his hairy chest.

“I waited so long for this day,” Madison whispered.

“Me too.”

Dino flipped her on her back and laid on top of her, his hardness pulsating against her stomach. Oh yes. This is what I’ve wanted. To feel the union of us becoming one.
