My Trip, by Madeline Moore

What a beautiful beach, don't you think? Felix and I went to Punta Cana in the Dominican Republic. Yes, I know it's hot where I live, now, but it wasn't when we booked our initial getaway. Then I got sick, yada yada, so we went to the Dominican Republic for a week.



The weather was perfect, the music was marvelous, the people were terrific, the food was good, and the air conditioning worked beautifully.

I'm happy to be home.

WE HAVE A WINNER!

I'm back from being stroked by the Caribbean sun. It was mahvelous, Dahlings.

So, down to the business of giving away a copy of AMANDA'S YOUNG MEN.

By random selection, the winner is orelukjpo.

REVIEWS and CONTEST

Well lookie here. Another terrific review for Amanda's Young Men. This one is from Angelika Devlyn at
Alternative-Read.com

Angelika says, "I loved this book. Amanda is smart, sexy, and keen to experiment. I felt for her at times when things were not going her way, and I was pleased to celebrate her successes, of which there are a few..."

Hey, why not read the whole review, right here.

Or pick it from the list of reviews in my sidebar. Then post a comment about the review you've read and you can win a copy of Amanda's Young Men.

The contest ends June 1 so get with the beat, oh readers of sexy books. I'll be announcing the winner when I get back from my fun in the sun holiday with Felix Baron.

Going Going Gone

We booked a last minute getaway to Cuba, departing at the end of March. Less than twenty four hours after the booking was made, I was rushed to Emergency. I was admitted and a few days later, had surgery. I was still in the hospital on the day we were scheduled to depart.

So - once again Felix and I are gearing up for a getaway. Yes, it's a little late in the season to hit the Caribbean but so what? Once we get there, will it matter that everyone at home isn't shovelling snow? I don't think so!

Today, my Dad and little bro arrive from Winnipeg. They're driving out my Dad's 1994 Buick, as he's just upgraded to a snazzy red 2008 coupe. Dad's 84 and he's decided to live the good life. So I get the old car.

We prairie people routinely drive long distances. Life without wheels has been a challenge for me and I'm looking forward to getting behind the wheel again. Thanks Dad! Thanks Al!

I'll take possession of my car, entertain the boys, finish a short story and START PACKING.

Felix and I have never taken a vacation together. What will it be like, I wonder?
Sexy? Or sweet? Relaxing? Or vigorous? Wild? Or peaceful?

I can't wait to find out.

So Sarah sighed and said OK

This is the new cover for my soon-to-be-published novel, SARAH'S EDUCATION.

I can hear those BICEPS sirens now, except BICEPS doesn't critique Black Lace covers much because, as 'erotic romance' we are allowed the occasional man on our covers.
Just not man and woman legs, tangled together in the sheets.

It's a pretty cover and I'm not one to whine much about the aspects of publishing my work that I have no power over. But SARAH'S EDUCATION is about a philosophy student who becomes a high class call-girl. As she gains experience in her new profession, she discovers she likes the kinky clients best.

Kinks in the novel include, off the top of my head:

ménage a trois with couples
fur
smoking
spanking
dress up
bondage
D/s
infantilism

One thing she never does is don a blindfold.

Oh well. Just please keep your fingers crossed that the product description (and the back cover) does not start with "Nineteen year old Sarah..." because that was first draft stuff, when the story was set in Ontario where the legal drinking age is nineteen. (It's important to the story, OK?) Once I moved the novel to the USA, she became twenty-one. There is a new description and it is supposed to go on the book and the bookstore sites. Oh God of Publishing, let it be so!



Halp! I can see menz legs...iz nt nrml?
