The Lady Submits – Chloe Cox

• Kindle – Amazon.co.uk
• Kindle – Amazon.com

Loving the premise of this one. (The warning is more of an incitement to read, as far as I’m concerned!)

‘Sometimes a highborn Lady needs to be brought low…

It’s the decadent, raunchy holiday of Bacchanal, and the Lady Lucrezia Grimaldi cannot find a man to satisfy her. Worse, she’s been saddled with the brutish Carlo Castellan as her bodyguard for the last night of Bacchanal. There’s only one thing to do: escape to the fabled House of the Severille…

The imperious Lady Lucrezia expects to sate herself by dominating some poor house slave. What she gets instead is the harsh touch of a Severille Master who will stop at nothing to make the Lady submit. 

The Lady Submits is a 12,000 word erotic historical fantasy novelette featuring strong BDSM themes. If you don’t like bondage, leashes, public display and humiliation, or alpha male doms who brook no dissent, then this probably isn’t for you.’

Strangeville – Kenneth Tingle

• Kindle – Amazon.co.uk
• Kindle – Amazon.com

This one sounds extremely odd, but thoroughly intriguing.

‘Need a good laugh? Strangeville is a different kind of story that draws the reader in and keeps them wondering what will happen next. The story is a dark comedy about a suicidal young man named John Campbell who, after a failed suicide attempt, heads to Virginia to visit an aunt he hasn’t seen in ten years. But his rental car runs out of gas deep in the mountains. When he decides to walk in the middle of the night, he winds up in a town that is isolated from the rest of the world—Strangeville. Unable to leave, he meets an assortment of loveable oddball characters—the beautiful Delilah, Klemm Johnson, Clarissa Puddworthy, Biff Flannigan, Jeboriah Varmint, Cleetus McChoparooski, and others.

So if you want a different kind of reading experience, and you’re tired of the same old cookie-cutter writing, check out Strangeville . Readers love it!’

Covet (Vampire Erotic Theatre Romance Series #1) – Felicity Heaton

• ePub – Kobo 

This could go either way – really good, or really awful. The star rating on Kobo seems decent, though, so I’ve got my fingers crossed for the former. And who could possibly resist the idea of ‘vampire erotic theatre’?)

 ‘They’ve burned for each other for two years, the forbidden attraction between them growing each night. Now resisting the sinful desires of their hearts is becoming impossible.

Javier knows better than to succumb to his hunger for Lilah. The mortal female belongs to a powerful aristocrat patron of Vampirerotique, the theatre he runs with three other vampires. A single touch is all it would take to break the sacred law of his kind, sentencing himself to death, but his passion for her has become too fierce to ignore and he will risk everything to make Lilah his.

Lilah has fought her desire for Javier since arriving at his theatre as a servant but each glance he has stolen, his eyes promising pleasure that will satisfy her longing for him, has chipped away at her defences and she can no longer deny her need and her forbidden feelings for the powerful vampire male.

 When they find themselves alone in a private box during one of the erotic performances, will they surrender to their passion and live out their wildest fantasies in a night of wicked pleasure or will the threat of Lilah’s master keep them apart forever?’

Just a quick note before we get into it … I’ve tried to pick eBooks, for the most part, that sound like they’ve actually been written by people with a basic grasp of spelling, syntax, and grammar but sincere apologies in advance if you end up with something that appears to have been written in crayon by a six-year-old. That said, these titles are all free (or were at the time of listing), so if they’re utter rubbish, you’ll have lost absolutely nothing by downloading them except space on your eReader. And maybe a few brain cells.

Out of the Shadows – Senta Holland

• Amazon.co.uk
• Amazon.com

According to the blurb, this is one for those who enjoyed The Secret Diary of a Submissive.

‘A deeply felt and superbly written BDSM love story, Senta Holland’s ‘Out of the Shadows’ explores the beautiful darkness in seven bedrooms.

Senta, a thirty something Londoner, travels around the planet looking for the man who can match her. The one she finds is her ‘Nai’, a high society American in Asia.

Senta’s story is both complicated and made more exciting by the fact that it unfolds in the dark world of BDSM, a world that can be hostile to single, independent females.

Highly erotic, deeply romantic and insightful this book shows the BDSM experience from the inside out, as reality, not just fantasy.’

Unbroken – Carolynn Amara

• Amazon.co.uk 
• Amazon.com 

I’m a sucker for military romance, myself …

‘When Alex Ramirez returns home from Afghanistan, his wife is thrilled to have her husband back. But the man that returns isn’t the same fresh-faced eager soldier that boarded the plane so many months ago. He may have left the war in another country but the one that brews inside follows him everywhere he goes. Can Anna find the strength to stand by the man she barely recognizes?’

 Keep Me Safe – Duka Dakarai

• Amazon.co.uk
• Amazon.com

‘Debated whether to stick this beastie in due to the alarmingly incorrect use of marks of ellipsis in the blurb (overload!) but was ultimately swayed by the candyfloss-sounding plot. (Sometimes, the cock-eyed stuff is great fun.) Be warned: this might be a ‘written in crayon’ choice.

Sky Sinclair is the sexy, sassy investigative journalist known for digging the dirt on the underworld. She oozes sex appeal and knows how to use it to open the doors of the worlds most hardened criminals…..but now her latest investigation turns personal……

Kane is an ex British SAS Captain who now runs Elite Defence. Dark and brooding, he shoots first and asks questions later. He prefers actions, not words. His assignments are Top Secret and always high risk.

When DCI Jack Mercer of the Specialist Crime Squad at New Scotland Yard calls in a favour, Kane is about to take on his toughest assignment yet…..to keep safe the one woman who he secretly rescued from a hostage situation four years ago. Sky Sinclair.

Keep Me Safe tells their story.’

Super Dark 1 (Super Dark Trilogy) – Tanith Morse

Kobo ePub

Teen contemporary romance. Go on. You know you want to.

‘Darkness stalks seventeen-year-old Sam Harper. Ten years ago on Halloween night, she and her best friend Elliot were snatched by grotesque creatures and Sam narrowly escaped with her life. Now a decade on, the police investigation has ground to a halt and Elliot’s whereabouts remains a mystery. Traumatized by her ordeal, Sam finds it hard to make friends. She is mistrustful of authority and changed schools more times than she cares to remember. To Sam, the world is cruel and unforgiving. Then she meets the enigmatic Lee Weaver. With his gorgeous face and magnetic presence, he turns heads wherever he goes. Sam has never wanted anyone as much as she wants Lee, but there are things about the alluring stranger that don’t add up, leading Sam to ask unsettling questions about her past. Soon she discovers the boy of her dreams is keeping a terrible secret: one that threatens to destroy everything Sam holds dear. Super Dark is a seductive love story that will keep you guessing right until the final page.’

TOYS

Passion8

Currently have a ‘3 for 2’ deal going on. There are over thirty toys included in the promotion, including the PalmPower Massager Wand, the Jimmyjane Form 2 and the Aneros Vice.

Crystal Delights

Don’t forget the back door! These guys do beautiful anal toys (their fur-tailed butt plugs are to die for) but they currently have a special on their small vintage plugs, which have been reduced from $94.95 to $84.95.

The Wood Wang Workshop

Okay, this one isn’t really a ‘deal’ per se, but I couldn’t resist highlighting it because I think it’s a lovely idea. For £10.00, The Wood Wang Workshop, who specialise in gorgeous, handcrafted wooden sex toys (including dildos, paddles and butt plugs) will personalise any spanking paddle you buy from them. Choose the style of paddle you’d like, chose the wood you’d like it made in, give them the text, et voilà! More details here.

The post Sexy on a Budget: romance, butt plugs and personalised spanking paddles appeared first on Behind the Chintz Curtain.

Similarly, keeping the toy box interesting can leave a pretty serious ding in the old bank account. I don’t tend to buy vibrators and dildos at the same rate I buy books (I doubt I’d be able to stand upright if I did!) but, even so, the good stuff is never particularly cheap.

So in the spirit of preventing whacking great reading bills and giving you frugal orgasms, I thought I’d compile a list of current deals and freebies. I’m going to try and do this every Friday, if I can – so if you fancy a little something for the weekend you’ll (hopefully!) be able to find a book or toy that won’t break the budget.

40 FREE KINDLE BOOKS action, fantasy, paranormal, mystery, romance, YA

This is a brilliant Amazon Listmania list that’s updated by its author every few days. As the title suggests, there’s a bit a genre mix going on, but this compilation is perfect if you’re desperate to read and can’t afford to part with a penny. Just be aware that it’s hosted on Amazon.com so the freebie statuses may not always apply on the Amazon.co.uk site.

Currently includes Heather Bowhay’s YA Amethyst, which has a fair few positive reviews.

You can find the list here.

Masters at Arms (Introduction to Military Romance & BDSM Series) (Rescue Me) – Kallypso Masters

Amazon.co.uk edition
Amazon.com edition

I’ve read some of Kallypso’s other books and this one is definitely worth a look if you have a thing for military men.

‘Masters at Arms is an introduction to the Rescue Me series, which needs to be read first. The book begins the journey of three men, each on a quest for honor, acceptance, and to ease his unspoken pain. Their paths cross at one of the darkest points in their lives. As they try to come to terms with the aftermath of Iraq–forging an unbreakable bond–they band together to start their own BDSM club. But will they ever truly become masters of their own fates? Or would fate become masters of them? (Book One in the Rescue Me series.)’

Anything She Wants, A Lesbian Erotica Anthology – edited by Harper Bliss

Amazon.co.uk edition
Amazon.com edition

One for the ladies:

‘In the office, on the set of a movie or on the bathroom floor, the ladies in this anthology don’t care where they get it on. Power play, first time encounters and office rivalry get the characters in these twelve stories so riled up, the only way to go is down and dirty. Tales of spanking, a wild all-female college party and a waitress with a strap-on grace the pages of Ladylit’s first multi-author lesbian erotica anthology.

Caution: Reading ‘Anything She Wants’ will make you wet!’

Private Paradise – Jami Alden 

Kobo ePub

For those who’re in the mood for something romantic:

‘After years of catering to the whims of the rich and famous at one of the Caribbean’s most luxurious resorts, there isn’t much that can rattle Carla DeLuca. 
Until Sam O’Connell shows up. 
Tall, dark, and sexy, Holley Cay’s new security chief is no stranger. He’s the irresistible bad boy who seduced her over a long, hot summer only to leave her heartbroken, humiliated, and determined to never again fall for a player like him. But though her heart still stings with the memory of his rejection, her body can’t forget the all-consuming pleasure of his touch.

Sam never forgave himself for his too cruel rejection of Carla over a decade before. Young, reckless, and convinced it was only a matter of time Carla regretted hooking up with a trouble maker like him, Sam pushed Carla away before she could realize her mistake. But when Sam lands a job working for Carla in paradise, he seizes the chance to finally make things right. 

When a hurricane strands them alone on the island, Carla is unable to resist the passion simmering between them. She doesn’t fool herself that what they have will last past the storm. But little does she know, Sam will do whatever it takes to make her his – forever this time.’
