<h4><strong>EBOOKS</strong></h4>
<p><em><a href="/wp-content/uploads/2014/06/Screen-Shot-2014-06-27-at-10.50.52.png"><img class="alignleft wp-image-7133 size-medium" src="/wp-content/uploads/2014/06/Screen-Shot-2014-06-27-at-10.50.52-200x300.png" alt="Her Mad Hatter" width="200" height="300" /></a></em><strong>Title:</strong><a title="Her Mad Hatter - Amazon.com" href="http://www.amazon.com/Her-Mad-Hatter-Kingdom-Book-ebook/dp/B008IL48BK/ref=sr_1_4?s=digital-text&amp;ie=UTF8&amp;qid=1403821477&amp;sr=1-4&amp;keywords=kindle+daily+book+deal+of+the+day" target="_blank" rel="nofollow"><em> Her Mad Hatter </em></a><br />
<strong>Author:</strong> Marie Hall.</p>
<p><em>“Alice is all grown up. Running the Mad Hatter&#8217;s Cupcakery and Tea Shoppe is a delicious job, until fate&#8211;and a fairy godmother with a weakness for bad boys&#8211;throws her a curveball. Now, Alice is the newest resident of Wonderland, where the Mad Hatter fuels her fantasies and thrills her body with his dark touch.</em></p>
<p><em>The Mad Hatter may have a voice and a body made for sex, but he takes no lovers. Ever. But a determined fairy godmother has forced Alice into Wonderland&#8211;and his arms. Now, as desire and madness converge, the Hatter must decide if he will fight the fairy godmother&#8217;s mating&#8211;or fight for Alice.</em></p>
<p><em>Long length Novella ~ Approx. 40k words. Additional pages are sneak peeks to future books!</em></p>
<p><em>This is not erotica, just a good old fashioned romance.”</em></p>
<p>This sounds thoroughly intriguing and has over seven hundred reviews (most of them positive). Best of all, it’s currently free, free, free. Clickety-click.</p>

<h4><strong>LINGERIE</strong></h4>
<p>Bargains abound! <a title="Agent Provocateur" href="http://www.agentprovocateur.com/" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">Agent Provocateur </a>and <a title="Coco de Mer" href="http://www.coco-de-mer.com/" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">Coco de Mer</a> are both having their seasonal sales. I love sexy lingerie but this is about the only time of the year I can afford to buy it from either of them. Some of the bigger ticket items, such as AP’s corsets, are still eye-wateringly expensive, but there are some excellent kicker and bra bargains to be had.</p>

<li><a title="Coco De Mer Sale" href="http://www.coco-de-mer.com/sale/" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">Coco de Mer Sale</a></li>
</ul>
<p>Happy shopping.</p>

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="/wp-content/uploads/2014/03/Camp_11.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-6713" alt="Camp Dildo" src="/wp-content/uploads/2014/03/Camp_11.jpg" width="1024" height="606" /></a><em><strong>Image: </strong><a title="Tent - Wikimedia Commons" href="http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File%3AStalon1.JPG" target="_blank">Maanpuolustusvastainen (own work)</a></em></p>
<p>How timely this <a title="Kink of the Week" href="http://kinkandpoly.com/kinkoftheweek/" target="_blank"><em>Kink of the Week</em></a> topic is; I have literally (as in the last 24 hours) hit the ‘pay now’ button and invested a chunk of change in a new phallic monolith for the old Jane and M toy box. No batteries, no cords, no plastic – just a lovely hunk of made-to-order glass that I’m hoping will get me off like no-one’s business. I want an orgasm. And I want a good one.</p>
<p>At this point, I’m going to say something controversial. Well, not controversial exactly but, possibly, a little surprising because I really haven’t seen that many other women make the statement I’m about to:</p>
<p>Phallic-style vibrators don’t, as a general rule, get me off.</p>
<p>Not without a lot of fiddling about, anyway.</p>
<p>From a stimulation point-of-view, the internal vibrations do a whole lot of nothing to my lady parts (am I the only one whose vagina pretty much yawns in boredom at these?) and while the rabbit ears – if the vibrator in question happens to have them – do generally feel good against my clitoris, they never seem to hit quite the right place with any sort of consistency. M’s fingers are far easier to position, far more flexible, and far more likely to get me where I need to go. They don’t need recharging, either.</p>
<p>Which brings me to dildos.<span id="more-6711"></span></p>
<p>I was late to the dildo party, seduced in my youthful exuberance by the idea of vibrations equalling orgasmic heaven: why would I want to choose a plain old phallus over one that vibrates like an Airbus during take-off and churns little beads around like a cement mixer full of marbles? Surely the more features the better? Give me the bells and whistles! Stick as many things on that hot rod as possible!</p>
<p><a href="/wp-content/uploads/2014/03/1658-A-02._LAcademie_des_Dames..._Aloïsia.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-6714" alt="L'Academie des Dames... Aloïsia" src="/wp-content/uploads/2014/03/1658-A-02._LAcademie_des_Dames..._Aloïsia.jpg" width="521" height="600" /></a><em><strong>Image:</strong> <a title="L'Academie des Dames... Aloïsia" href="http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File%3A1658-A-02._L'Academie_des_Dames..._Alo%C3%AFsia.png" target="_blank">L&#8217;Academie des Dames&#8230; Aloïsia</a>, Nicolas Chorier</em></p>
<p>Yeah, turns out all those extras, for me personally, were highly un-necessary. In short, I have come to realise that, internally, all my body really cares about is size, shape, and material.</p>
<p>My first dildo purchases were probably not the best (rubbery numbers that smelled awful and, in hindsight, were likely choc-full of <a title="Phthalates - Wikipedia" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phthalate" target="_blank">phthalates</a>). However, the fact that they were, respectively, both bigger and smaller than a standard vibrator made them stand out because they could do things their vibrating siblings weren’t really able to: the larger-sized dildo created more satisfying friction internally due to its girth; the smaller, thinner one could be inserted into tighter places. Eventually, however, as I became more educated about phthalates, I threw them both out and went in search of body-safe alternatives.</p>
<p>And this was when I discovered the joys of the glass dildo.</p>
<p>The glass phallus has pretty much become my internal sex toy of choice. Why? First and foremost, because it has a firmness to it that the softer, plasticised versions just don’t. In turn, this means that it can be angled and rubbed against the G-Spot extremely effectively and, if I’m lucky, prompt a squirting orgasm. (When all’s said and done, that’s the kind of climax I put on a pedestal because they’re nearly always more intense than one triggered by clitoral stimulation.) I’ve also found that glass tends to lend itself to more extreme angling design-wise and that the <a title="Hooked, curved dildo - Icicles No 31" href="http://www.lovehoney.co.uk/product.cfm?p=25817" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">hooked, curved dildos</a> that can be produced from it as a result are perfect for targeting that little sponge of internal nerve endings. Best of all, glass isn’t going to leach all sorts of chemical nasties into your body. It’s easy to clean, too.</p>
<p><a href="/wp-content/uploads/2014/03/Franz_von_Bayros_Erotische_Darstellung_2.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-6715" alt="Franz von Bayros Erotische Darstellung" src="/wp-content/uploads/2014/03/Franz_von_Bayros_Erotische_Darstellung_2.jpg" width="567" height="605" /></a><em><strong>Image:</strong> <a title="Franz von Bayros Erotische Darstellung" href="http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File%3AFranz_von_Bayros_Erotische_Darstellung_2.jpg" target="_blank">Erotische Darstellung</a>, <em>Franz von Bayros </em></em></p>
<p>I’ve not yet tried a stainless steel dildo (although one of those is on my wish list) but have heard that many others rate them, particularly the njoy Pure Wand, for the same reasons: it&#8217;s firm, angled, body-safe, and non-porous. (This particular design comes up again and again on <a title="Toy with me Tuesday - Chocolate and Pure Wand" href="http://nymphomaniacness.com/toy-with-me-tuesday-i-njoy-chocolate/" target="_blank">Toy with Me Tuesday</a> and <a title="njoy Pure Wand" href="http://www.amazon.com/Njoy-Pure-Wand/dp/B000QUYT6A" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">looking at various other online reviews, it seems some people are ready to marry the thing</a>!)</p>
<p>So (after all that rambling), I hereby declare myself a card-carrying member of Camp Dildo. I like it here. There&#8217;s no fast, or slow or pulse setting, but it&#8217;s satisfying. Blissfully so.</p>

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Happy Monday, everyone. I know I normally do <em>Freebies and Discounts</em> posts on Fridays but, over the weekend, the lovely folk at <a title="ohtique" href="http://www.ohtique.com/" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">ohtique</a> were kind enough to give me an exclusive discount code for Chintz readers, which will enable you guys to obtain 25% off everything on their site, including items already on sale. Not to be sniffed at, considering some of their toys are currently half-price (now that’s a happy maths problem!). And they offer free delivery, too.</p>
<p>My picks? Well, <a title="Sex Toy Stories: Fifty Shades of Pink" href="/chintzcurtain/2013/06/14/sex-toy-stories-fifty-shades-of-pink/" target="_blank">you know I&#8217;m not that keen on pink things</a>, so might I suggest one of these lovely, dark beauties …</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><a title="Silicone Anal Beads - Sex and Mischief" href=" http://www.ohtique.com/anal/heavy-metal-solid-metallic-anal-beads-on-string-silver.html" target="_blank" rel="nofollow"><strong>Silicone Anal Beads from Sex and Mischief</strong></a></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.ohtique.com/sex-mischief-black-silicone-anal-beads.html" target="_blank" rel="nofollow"><img class="aligncenter  wp-image-6333" alt="Silicone Anal Beads - Sex and Mischief" src="/chintzcurtain/wp-content/uploads/2013/10/Screen-shot-2013-10-21-at-10.21.27.png" width="361" height="359" /></a></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Made from silicone – and therefore body-safe fun for your bottom.<span id="more-6332"></span></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><a title="Petits Joujoux Athens Massage Candle" href="http://www.ohtique.com/for-couples/massage/petits-joujoux-athens-candle-50-hours.html" target="_blank" rel="nofollow"><strong>50-hour Athens Massage Candle by Petits Joujoux</strong></a></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.ohtique.com/petits-joujoux-athens-candle-50-hours.html" target="_blank" rel="nofollow"><img class="aligncenter  wp-image-6334" alt="Petits Joujoux Athens Massage Candle" src="/chintzcurtain/wp-content/uploads/2013/10/Screen-shot-2013-10-21-at-10.28.07.png" width="345" height="396" /></a></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>I&#8217;m rather taken with the packaging of this. Simply light the candle, wait for it to liquify, and use the warm wax in place of a regular massage oil.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><a title="Jimmyjane Form 3 Rechargeable Vibrator" href="http://www.ohtique.com/vibrators/all-vibrators/jimmy-jane-form-3-luxury-rechargeable-vibrator.html" target="_blank" rel="nofollow"><strong>Jimmyjane Form 3 Rechargeable Vibrator</strong></a></p>

<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>It&#8217;s waterproof! Which means that this vibrator can join you in the bath. Glass of wine &#8230; candles &#8230; a saucy book &#8230; an orgasm or two &#8230;</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Just enter the following code, <strong>OHITQUE25</strong>, at checkout to obtain the 25% discount on your purchase (or purchases).</p>
<p>Happy shopping!</p>

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Last week, I saw this tweet by blogger and writer <a title="Betty Herbert" href="http://www.bettyherbert.com/" target="_blank">Betty Herbert</a> …</p>
<p><a href="/chintzcurtain/wp-content/uploads/2013/09/Screen-shot-2013-09-30-at-13.21.50.png"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-6274" alt="@BettyHerbert" src="/chintzcurtain/wp-content/uploads/2013/09/Screen-shot-2013-09-30-at-13.21.50.png" width="464" height="99" /></a></p>
<p>… and had something of a ‘heck, yeah!’ moment. Mainly because Betty had managed to articulate in less than 140 characters something that has been bugging me for a long time: sex toy manufacturers’ use of annoyingly euphemistic language within their instruction manuals. Or, put another way, their ridiculous insistence on providing virtually no practical instruction whatsoever when it comes to anything other than nuts and bolts functionality.</p>
<p>When I questioned her further about her tweet, Betty went on to say:</p>
<p><a href="/chintzcurtain/wp-content/uploads/2013/09/Screen-shot-2013-09-30-at-12.06.20.png"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-6268" alt="@BettyHerbert(2)" src="/chintzcurtain/wp-content/uploads/2013/09/Screen-shot-2013-09-30-at-12.06.20.png" width="464" height="102" /></a></p>
<p>If you own a vibrator, or a dildo, or a cock ring, or a butt plug, or any other kind of sex toy or implement, you’ll likely understand exactly what it is she and I are talking about. How many times have you taken something out of the box, perused the manual, and gotten a run-down on Button A and Button B but nothing whatsoever about how or where to insert it? Looked at something online, twisted your head sideways and thought ‘how the hell does that work?’ Turned something over and over in your hands and, after scratching the old noggin, thought ‘well, I get the basic idea, but is this the front or the back?’ Granted, most of us can work out where to stick a dildo or a vibrator but as toy designs evolve and change, become more sophisticated, it’s not always as simple as it might seem to navigate the parameters of functionality.<span id="more-6266"></span></p>
<p>How about the <a title="WeVibe - Lovehoney" href="http://www.lovehoney.co.uk/product.cfm?p=22834" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">WeVibe</a>, which Betty mentions in her tweet above:</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.lovehoney.co.uk/product.cfm?p=22834&amp;aff=por" target="_blank" rel="nofollow"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-6270" alt="WeVibe" src="/chintzcurtain/wp-content/uploads/2013/09/Screen-shot-2013-09-30-at-13.11.39.png" width="345" height="315" /></a></p>

<p>It should come as no surprise that I’ve bought a truckload of sex-related paraphernalia over the years. And, yes, most of the time, I know what I’m supposed to do with the various toys and instruments at my disposal. But that’s no excuse not to explain <em>clearly and in plain language</em> what something actually does – for safety, if nothing else – and how it should be used to best advantage. Because for every person who can use that triple-armed vibrating dildo with patented electro-pulse feature blindfolded and hanging by one foot, there’s going to be someone who can’t.</p>
<p>As far as the woolly language of sex toy manuals goes? Well, the only thing I can deduce is that that while companies are perfectly happy to sell us all sorts of wonderful baubles, they’re less comfortable with, oh, I don’t know … actually talking to us about them in real terms. It’s almost as if they think we’re incapable of handling the truth of our purchases; God forbid we see words like &#8216;vagina&#8217; or &#8216;anus&#8217; or &#8216;vibrator&#8217; anywhere on the product box or in the manual. And the irony is that in trying not to (I can only assume) &#8216;embarrass&#8217; users by coming up with all sorts of flowery phrases to explain what their product is and what it does, they actually manage to do just the opposite, i.e. turn something that is completely normal – sexual pleasure – into a shameful thing that can&#8217;t be overtly referenced or named.</p>
<p>Need convincing? Check out the below extracts from the manuals of a number of well-known sex toys. (And just in case the intent of the various excerpts escapes you, I&#8217;ve included helpful &#8216;Jane translations&#8217;.)</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<blockquote><p>‘Continue pressing the button, and you are gradually elevated through all of the SWAN’s variable motions until you find yourself at an intense fluttering sensation.’</p></blockquote>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<h5><em>– <a title="Kissing Swan rechargeable vibrator" href="http://www.lovehoney.co.uk/product.cfm?p=28077" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">Kissing Swan rabbit vibrator</a></em></h5>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><strong>Jane translation:</strong> Hold it against your clitoris, and keep pushing the power button until you find a setting/speed that brings you to orgasm.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<blockquote><p>‘This innovative technology has you lost in your thoughts and holding on for more pleasure.’</p></blockquote>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<h5><em>– Explaining the purpose of the Kissing Swan’s ‘press and hold’ feature (which is billed as a function that ‘mimics the natural escalation of human passion’).</em></h5>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><strong>Jane translation:</strong> Hold the button down to make the vibrations stronger and get yourself off more quickly.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<blockquote><p>‘Congratulations on acquiring the ELISE / IRIS pleasure object. Before getting more closely acquainted with your ELISE / IRIS, please take a moment to review the information in this user manual.’</p>
<p><em> </em></p></blockquote>
<h5><em>– <a title="LELO Iris - Lovehoney" href="http://www.lovehoney.co.uk/product.cfm?p=8307" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">LELO Iris vibrator</a></em></h5>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><strong>Jane translation:</strong> Thanks for buying this vibrator. Before you put it in your vagina, please read the instructions.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Manufacturers! Hear my plea! I have bought something to stimulate my clitoris/vagina/anus/breasts/[insert relevant body part]. You really do not need to try and fool me into thinking that I have bought a &#8216;massager&#8217; or a &#8216;pleasure object&#8217; or an &#8216;objet d&#8217;art&#8217;. I&#8217;m a big girl; I think I can handle the truth – and my sexuality.</p>

<p>In all honesty, that strapline puts me off wanting to download this one (anti-marketing!), but the ratings appear to be pretty solid (most are between three and five stars). I rather like the cover, too.</p>
<p><i>My name is Monica. I&#8217;m a singer born and raised in Los Angeles.</i></p>
<p><i> I&#8217;ve stopped dating. When I cut a record, or win a Grammy, maybe then I&#8217;ll be with someone, but every man in my past has done everything he could to make me submit myself to him, and it&#8217;s gotten in the way of my career. I won&#8217;t do it again.</i></p>
<p><i> But there&#8217;s Jonathan. He owns the high-rise hotel where I work, and he is gorgeous and charming. I refuse to fall in love with him, even though when he asks me to submit to him, I want nothing more.</i></p>

<p>A novella that’s likely to push your buttons if you’re after something quick and sexy. Nothing too controversial or challenging. Just good old erotic romance.</p>
<p><i>Nina Valentine is done with New York. After spending the last year struggling to make it as a painter, all she has to show for it are bills she can&#8217;t pay. Out of money and sick of struggling, she decides it&#8217;s time to pack it up and head back to her hometown in New Hampshire.</i></p>
<p><i>When she meets Ian Sinclair at her going away party, Nina&#8217;s instantly attracted to his dark, smoldering looks and lean athletic body. When he asks her back to his apartment, she&#8217;s willing to overlook the fact that he&#8217;s a high-powered lawyer. It&#8217;s just for one night, and guys as gorgeous as Ian don&#8217;t come around every day.</i></p>
<p><i>Ian has never had a problem getting women into his bed, but after his hot night with Nina, all he wants is more of her. So he makes the curvy painter a deal &#8211; stay in the city for a few weeks and he&#8217;ll take care of everything.</i></p>
<p><i>Nina agrees, even though she knows better than to get attached. He&#8217;s a rich corporate suit, she&#8217;s a struggling artist. But as the connection between them deepens and Ian takes her to places she&#8217;s never been &#8211; both in and out of the bedroom &#8211; Nina doesn&#8217;t know how much longer she can resist. </i></p>

<p>Romantic suspense, which is a category I quite enjoy if the story is cleverly executed. This one does sound quite promising <strong><i>–</i></strong> reading the various reviews it seems that it has a quite a broad appeal.</p>
<p><i>Deadly Offerings is an ebook with a blend of pulsing passion and razor-sharp suspense. It is the first adventure in this sizzling romantic suspense trilogy.</i></p>
<p><i>Anne Mason thinks she’ll be safe living in the Midwest building a wind farm. She may be dead wrong. Someone is dumping bodies in her corn field and telling Anne they are gifts—for her!</i></p>
<p><i>As the body count rises, Anne realizes a cold-blooded serial killer is patiently waiting and watching her every move. And he won’t stop until he ends her life. It is clear there are no limits to this killer’s thirst for revenge or how far he will go to get it.</i></p>
<p><i>After a nasty divorce, Anne Mason does not want to get romantically involved, especially with ex-husband’s attorney, Michael Brandt.</i></p>
<p><i>The ruggedly handsome new County Prosecutor is the last person Anne can trust, but may offer her only chance at survival from a psychopathic killer. But will she survive the passion that rages between them?</i></p>

<p><b>What we used:</b> standard riding crop<br />
<b>From:</b> <a title="Jack's Floggers" href="http://www.jacksfloggers.co.uk/" target="_blank">Jack’s Floggers</a><br />
<b>Material(s):</b> leather, glass fibre<br />
<b>Price:</b> £12.00<br />

<p>A crop is a crop is a crop. Or is it? Find out what Lizzie and Thomas think of their newest purchase from U.K.-based <a title="Jack's Floggers" href="http://www.jacksfloggers.co.uk/" target="_blank">Jack’s Floggers</a>.</p>
<p><b>First thoughts</b></p>
<p><span style="color: #b21f3b;"><b>Lizzie</b></span><br />
So, can I just say that my eyes were going all over the place when I saw Jack’s line up of truly beautiful implements at <a title="LAM" href=" http://www.londonalternativemarket.com/" target="_blank">LAM</a> (the London Alternative Market), which is where Thomas and I bought this lovely, lovely riding crop a month or two back. The quality of Jack’s products was abundantly clear but, not only that, they were all, without exception, incredibly stylish. This crop stood out to me, first and foremost, because of the colour – I’m a sucker for red – but as soon as I picked it up, I thought ‘ooh!’. Our current <a title="Bondage Boutique crop - Lovehoney" href="http://www.lovehoney.co.uk/product.cfm?p=15825" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">Bondage Boutique crop</a>, the one <a title="Christian Grey’s playthings, part two: the crop" href="/chintzcurtain/2012/07/06/christian-greys-playthings-part-two-the-crop/">we reviewed a while back</a>, is now a little worse for wear and, lately, we’ve noticed the keeper has started to part company with the shaft.</p>
<p><strong><span style="color: #b21f3b;">Thomas</span></strong><br />
Like Lizzie, I noticed straight away that this crop of Jack’s looked and felt far superior to our current one. And although they’re both about the same length overall (approximately 27.5 inches from end to end) the leather strop/keeper on his design is much longer (7.0 inches at the attachment point as opposed to 4.5).<span id="more-6093"></span></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><strong>Construction</strong></p>
<p><a href="/chintzcurtain/wp-content/uploads/2013/08/CRW_8679.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-6094" alt="Braided handle" src="/chintzcurtain/wp-content/uploads/2013/08/CRW_8679.jpg" width="1024" height="683" /></a></p>
<p><strong><span style="color: #b21f3b;">Lizzie</span></strong><br />
I’ll say it again. This is an absolutely stunning crop and the quality of the craftsmanship is evident everywhere you look: the beautiful braided handle in gloss red leather; the black braided handle butts; the slim, tapered shaft; the soft leather keeper embossed with the Jack’s Floggers logo. Everything on it is neat and tidy, the finishing impeccable, and, basically, it’s just really well made. This isn’t an instrument that’s going to fall to pieces on you in a hurry.</p>
<p><span style="color: #b21f3b;"><strong>Thomas</strong></span><br />
This crop is far whippier than our old one (I gave Lizzie a few experimental whacks before buying it and the difference was immediately evident) and it’s definitely better put together as well. The leather keeper is more securely attached to the shaft and the shaft material itself, which is glass fibre, is superior, too. I like that the handle is braided as the uneven surface helps with grip. Overall, the finish is very, very good.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><strong>In use</strong></p>
<p><span style="color: #b21f3b;"><strong>Lizzie</strong></span><br />
<a href="/chintzcurtain/wp-content/uploads/2013/08/CRW_8681.jpg"><img class="alignleft  wp-image-6095" alt="Split keeper" src="/chintzcurtain/wp-content/uploads/2013/08/CRW_8681.jpg" width="240" height="360" /></a>I love the crop. It’s become one of my favourite toy bag items. The threat and tease of it as it’s run or tapped over my body prior to or during a session; the sting of the tip and shaft when it’s applied to my bottom and thighs with force. The ‘smacking’ sound the keeper creates when it hits the skin, too, never fails to send a little thrill of fright through me.</p>
<p>Thomas and I liked our last crop a lot but, wow. It pales in comparison to this one. For starters, Jack’s creation has far (far) more bite than the Bondage Boutique version. The slim, stiff shaft really smarts when it hits and the split keeper seems to give far more sting to the wielder’s flicks and swings. Thomas had to strike relatively firmly to generate bruises with our previous crop. This one? Well, I had some truly spectacular purple keeper-shaped marks on my bottom for far less effort on his part.</p>
<p>If you’re someone who enjoys stingy sensations, this crop is a slice of heaven … and maybe just a little bit of exquisite masochistic hell, too :-).</p>
<p><span style="color: #b21f3b;"><b>Thomas</b></span><br />
Jack’s crop is far more aggressive than our last one. The shaft is slimmer and stiffer, and the leather strop is softer and longer. This all combines for a lot more whip and a lot more snap in the end – and so a lot more sting. Lizzie wriggles about far more than usual when I use this crop, which tells me I have her undivided attention.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><b>Any downsides?</b></p>
<p><span style="color: #b21f3b;"><strong>Lizzie</strong></span><br />
None that I can think of. Although I would say that the slightly longer-than-we-were-used-to keeper dimensions caught us out a little; Thomas mis-judged a relatively firm hit by a fraction of an inch and ended up catching me between the legs before he intended to do so (he normally warms me up a bit more before going for that spot). I can tell you categorically that a firm swat with this on the clitoris will make you jump about like nobody’s business!</p>
<p><span style="color: #b21f3b;"><strong>Thomas</strong></span><br />
As Lizzie mentioned, the only issue with this crop was that I made the schoolboy error of not practising enough with it beforehand and assuming if would behave the same way as our old one. The lesson? Always put a new toy through its paces, even if the overall style is familiar, so that you get the reach right. This one caught me out because I placed it fractionally further into the buttock than I should have (although I don&#8217;t think Lizzie minded too much ;-).) If you are used to a crop with a short, unsplit keeper, you will need to be extra careful with your aim until you get used to it.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><strong>The verdict?</strong></p>
<p><span style="color: #b21f3b;"><strong>Lizzie</strong></span><br />
A superb riding crop that is amazingly priced, beautifully made, and a joy to be on the receiving end of. If you like sting with style, this is £12.00 you won’t regret parting with.</p>
<p><span style="color: #b21f3b;"><strong>Thomas</strong></span><br />
A very nice crop nice to hold and use and very effective (especially when applied to the clitoris!).<b></b></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><strong>In summary</strong></p>
<p>Things we liked:</p>
<ul>
<li>The finishing. Truly beautiful.</li>
<li>The design. Sting city!</li>
<li>The price. At £12.00 this is a total bargain.</li>
<li>Being able to try before we bought. Jack (and his stall) were fab. But he also offers a great online service, with worldwide shipping, if you can’t make it to the London Alternative Market.</li>
</ul>
<p>Things we weren’t so keen on:</p>
<ul>
<li>Nothing!</li>

<p><strong><i>The Lady Submits</i> – Chloe Cox</strong></p>
<p><a href="/chintzcurtain/wp-content/uploads/2013/07/Screen-shot-2013-07-12-at-11.48.51.png"><img class="alignleft  wp-image-5862" alt="The Lady Submits" src="/chintzcurtain/wp-content/uploads/2013/07/Screen-shot-2013-07-12-at-11.48.51.png" width="211" height="318" /></a></p>

</ul>
<p>Loving the premise of this one. (The warning is more of an incitement to read, as far as I’m concerned!)</p>
<p><i>‘Sometimes a highborn Lady needs to be brought low&#8230;</i></p>
<p><i>It&#8217;s the decadent, raunchy holiday of Bacchanal, and the Lady Lucrezia Grimaldi cannot find a man to satisfy her. Worse, she&#8217;s been saddled with the brutish Carlo Castellan as her bodyguard for the last night of Bacchanal. There&#8217;s only one thing to do: escape to the fabled House of the Severille&#8230;</i></p>
<p><i>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.</i><i> </i></p>
<p><i>The Lady Submits is a 12,000 word erotic historical fantasy novelette featuring strong BDSM themes. If you don&#8217;t like bondage, leashes, public display and humiliation, or alpha male doms who brook no dissent, then this probably isn&#8217;t for you.’<span id="more-5860"></span></i></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><strong><i>Strangeville</i> – Kenneth Tingle</strong></p>
<p><a style="font-size: 13px; line-height: 19px;" href="/chintzcurtain/wp-content/uploads/2013/07/Screen-shot-2013-07-12-at-11.43.03.png"><img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-5861" alt="Strangeville " src="/chintzcurtain/wp-content/uploads/2013/07/Screen-shot-2013-07-12-at-11.43.03.png" width="214" height="324" /></a></p>

<li><a style="font-size: 13px; line-height: 19px;" title="Strangeville" href="http://www.amazon.co.uk/Strangeville-ebook/dp/B00B45520S/ref=sr_1_1?s=digital-text&amp;ie=UTF8&amp;qid=1373625149&amp;sr=1-1" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">Kindle – Amazon.co.uk</a></li>
<li><a style="font-size: 13px; line-height: 19px;" title="Strangeville" href="http://www.amazon.com/Strangeville-ebook/dp/B00B45520S/ref=sr_1_1?s=digital-text&amp;ie=UTF8&amp;qid=1373625149&amp;sr=1-1" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">Kindle – Amazon.com</a></li>
</ul>
<p>This one sounds extremely odd, but thoroughly intriguing.</p>
<p><i>‘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. </i></p>
<p><i>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!’</i></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><strong><i>Covet</i> <i>(Vampire Erotic Theatre Romance Series #1) – </i>Felicity Heaton</strong></p>
<p><a href="/chintzcurtain/wp-content/uploads/2013/07/Screen-shot-2013-07-12-at-11.58.28.png"><img class="alignleft  wp-image-5863" alt="Covet" src="/chintzcurtain/wp-content/uploads/2013/07/Screen-shot-2013-07-12-at-11.58.28.png" width="203" height="315" /></a></p>

</ul>
<p>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’?)</p>
<p><i> ‘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.</i></p>
<p><i>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.</i></p>
<p><i>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.</i></p>
<p><i> </i><i>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?’</i></p>
