I know I own one… do you?

For years, dildos have played a role in sexual fulfillment. I know I own one… blushing… but hey I figure most woman do so I should not be embarrassed! Wink.

For my first book What She Craves the story CheckMate has an erotic sexual chess game in it where some of the pieces are given marble dildos. I did a bit of research to make sure that they were indeed used during this time period and found that the first documentation of a dildo is from Ancient Greece. The city of Miletus was renowned for its leather, wood, and ivory olisbos - they were sold not only in the shops of the city, but on the Mediterranean circuits they traded them. I tried really hard to find images of some of these old phalluses… but was unsuccessful! If you know of any links please let me know.

There were also paintings on Greek vases that depicted dildos, as well as some vague references to them possibly being used in deflowering ceremonies, wherein a dildo was attached to a statue of Priapus and used to prepare a young woman for marriage. And in Renaissance Italy they used wood versions which required olive oil to make them sufficiently lubricated for use.




Outside Europe, dildos had also been in use since ancient times. In China, they were sometimes made of wood, jade, and ivory; ( I did manage to find a photo of a jade one and an ivory one, Though I am unsure of time period on these. They are quite beautiful and I imagine feel quite unique.)

Not a Regency Historical... Or Historical At All!

This past week my contemporary novella called KISS OF THE DRAGON released in the SEXY BEAST III anthology. The antho has been doing really quite well. The first few days of release the book ranked #1 on Barns and Nobles erotic fiction category.

The man on the cover is oh so sexy... He is the cover model on all of the Sexy Beast covers so far and I know he is on the next one as well.

Here is what RT has to say about the novellas.

Four Stars ~ "These wereanimal-themed stories are a sizzling set of tales with a nice range of settings. From an adventure in a werewolf family to sexy weredragons to a unique tale set in Japan involving a weretiger, each story is exciting and hot. Hawke's almost fairy tale, with its exotic Japanese setting and dreamlike atmosphere, is especially intriguing. Group, hetero- and homosexual acts are all represented."
- Romantic Times Magazine

My story is contemporary but my hero has been around for quite some time. Hundreds of years.

Here is a blurb from my story:
Meet Nora and Chester... Nora can read energies and is human, Chester is sexy weredragon. WARNING>>>> EXPLICIT SEX AHEAD<<<<<<<.


Chet strode forward to Nora. He stood before her and lightly trailed his finger tips up the soft flesh of her sides. She jumped, her skin and muscles twitching. A smile crossed her lips and her eyes held his. The black center of her eyes engulfed the brown in arousal and the smell of her spicy wet cunt made his mouth water.

Frey appeared behind her and grabbed her hair, pulling her head back and exposing her neck to Chester’s sight. He licked his lips, staring admiringly at the exposed column of her throat. He needed to mark her delicate skin in a pattern any Dragna would be proud of. He would do it with his teeth.

He leaned forward, his tongue licking her spiced skin from collarbone to ear. Her breath deepened and his cock twitched, aching to be touched by her hands, her mouth. He needed her hot skin, he needed her. In every Dragna’s life one mate made them a better partner. Nora was that mate for him. He bit the flesh of her earlobe, breathing out warmed air from his lungs as he did.

Nora squirmed. Dragging his teeth harshly down the warmed skin, she whimpered. The marks would stay… permanently etched on her skin in his blue gold shimmer. Warmed by the fire of his breath they would never leave her body.

A mark saying to all she was his.

His hands pulled her lower body to his, the warm juices of her cunt touched his cock as he rotated his hips against her and he wanted nothing more than to sink into her.

He held himself still. Frey would have that first privilege tonight.

She gasped in delight as Frey’s tongue traced the raised flesh his mark created on her neck, spreading her thighs further and rocking her clit against Chet. The hot folds of her labia coated his skin with her increasing lust. Chet groaned and speared his brother with his gaze. Get a move on, Frey. Frey’s eyes laughed back at him as he nodded his understanding.

Frey’s tongue flicked the pulse, hammering just below her skin, then in the reverse direction marked her with his teeth. Nora cried out in pleasure and pain. The spicy smell of her pussy dripping with arousal filled Chet’s nostrils and his mouth watered wanting to taste her tartness.

Frey released his hold on her hair, and dropped to the floor behind her, spreading her butt cheeks and spearing his tongue into her juicy lips.

Frey would get to do everything first tonight. Bugger it. Not if Chet could help it, he would make her come first. He dropped to his knees and drew a slick line down Nora’s labia, flicking her clit with feathery touches. Nora groaned, her legs shaking by his ears. My Desna, she was so responsive to every caress. He could caress her however he wished and she would be in rapture.

Yes, oh yes. He would make her come and hard. His tongue circled her bud and latched on to the hard flesh, sucking, then swirling her button again.

Frey’s fingers kneaded Nora’s smooth ivory buttocks and thighs, as his tongue danced and along her slit. The heat and moisture of his tongue mingled with Chet’s and Nora’s juices as they elicited cry after pleasurable cry from Nora’s lips.
Each subtle moan and full out delightful scream made Chet’s blood rush faster, blocking all but his oiled tongue lapping and swilling in Nora’s gushing wetness. Her legs shook and jerked. She arched her hips towards him, reaching for the climax that he intended on providing her. Yes, lovely, come for me now. Come for me.

He swooshed his tongue over her clit and rapidly flicked the swollen nub of flesh. Nora screamed, her body thrashing on the restraints. Chet washed her labia with his tongue. Each hard pulse of her cunt, spilling the thick oil of her come on his taste-buds. The tart, spiced taste of her spend, hardened him to standing straight. Perfect. She was perfect.

Hope you enjoyed!



Okay so in honor of this books release I am going to give away a copy of SEXY BEAST III and WHAT SHE CRAVES. Post a comment on this post by 9PM on 6th of September and I will pull one name from those who comment to win both.

Hugs and Kisses,
Lacy.

Deadlines…

Hi All this post will be short as I have a deadline looming and I need to write.
Okay deep breath.

The story that I am currently working on is based on Viking folklore for the Bear and the word Berserk.




I am really quite excited about the book, it is a paranormal historical set mainly in Regency England, one story is in Scandinavia. The book is about four brothers in a family, who is part of a subspecies of humans called Ursus.

Ursus are human only more…

The book my editor is calling ANIMAL LUST. LoL

I get a lot of my story ideas from reading history books. This one was no different really, though I did most of my research for this book after I had written the first scene, which actually is the third scene in the first story, The Love Of Ursus. (That scene came to me in a dream while I was writing Lusts Vow, the first story in WHAT SHE CRAVES.)

I have three of the four novella’s in this book written, and two of them edited. I have three weeks to write a novella and edit the last two. I have taken time off work and I am buckling down to write like mad!

My question is... Does it bother you when writers mix genres? Regency set historical erotic romance, mixed with paranormal, etc.

Off to write! See you all in June.

Hugs and Kisses,
Lacy.

What She Craves Officially Releases Today.

This book I wrote just before my life changed drastically-- divorce.

A good friend of mine Eva Gale, who writes for Phaze, kept pushing me to try to write an erotic piece. There was a contest coming up at Phaze and she suggested I enter it. The piece I wrote for this contest is Night Of the Taking the third novella in WHAT SHE CRAVES.

I never entered it in the contest. I had gotten such good feed back from my crit group on this novella, I wondered if I could pitch it to NY. I got up the nerve and contacted a friend of a friend who is an agent( She doesn’t do steamy). She had in the past told me that if I ever wanted guidance she would be more than willing to look at something for me. I wanted to get her opinion on the story. To see if it was strong enough to even consider sending to NY. She read it and said it was an excellent story. That I should talk to a friend of hers who was an agent of steamy romance and erotica and see what she thought about it.

That agent is now my agent, Roberta Brown of the Brown Literary Agency. Roberta pitched my story to Kensington, and with in 36 hours from initially contacting my friend the agent, I had my very first book deal. My head was spinning. I couldn’t believe it.

That is how WHAT SHE CRAVES came to be…

The stories themselves all had different influences. Night Of the Taking I wrote right after reading two history books on Hell Fire Clubs of the 1700’s.I was fascinated by the rituals and ceremonies that were used in most of them and I decided to incorporate something similar into that story.

Next I wrote Lust Vow the first story in the book. I had recently read a very good book TAKING POSITIONS about Giulio Romano’s I modi (or positions) and Pietro Aretino’s pomes that he wrote to accompany the engravings.There are 16 positions in all.
Anyway, I thought it would be interesting for a group of men to put on these positions in a show as some of the brothels did in the 17-18th centuries. I used position #14 in my story.

CheckMate… the idea came partially from my life. I have a day job where I have to call the shots and unfortunately I was also in a relationship where by necessity I was forced to call all the shots. I hated it! So I thought about what it would have been like to have been a courtesan during the regency period that had the same issue, but for entirely different reasons. And so Cora was born, a courtesan that is a Domme by profession, who in her core, her nature, just wants and needs to be submissive.

That is how WHAT SHE CRAVES was born.

My book is available now at your local book store or on line at Amazon, Barns and Noble, or any other online book store.

Oh and I have a Book to give away! So go ahead and post a comment in this thread and I will use a random generator and give away a copy of WHAT SHE CRAVES at the end of today. Good Luck!

Hugs and Kisses,
Lacy.
