Sale ends on New Year's Day

Just a friendly reminder that Ripped & Twisted and Candy & Kink will go back to full price on the New Year.

However, both will still remain Free on Kindle Unlimited.

Increased libido and an enhanced sex life, you say?

I have a few passions. Fitness, writing, food, and of course, sex!

I mean, shouldn't we all enjoy sex?

And sometimes even mix food and sex, but that's another post.

Hence why I like to share anything to enhance that part of peoples' lives.

What if I told you that there is any easy way to increase libido?

Now, I know many of us do not need help in that department.

Perhaps, some of us just would like to have it heightened?

Fitness will do that.

No lie.

There's science to prove it.

And no, I do not mean that you have to get to this level to feel those effects either.

Although, I'm not complaining when I get to that level again...or if I found him hanging around my bedroom.

*points up*

Now granted, we know that feeling better about ourselves automatically increases our self-confidence which will make us a little less inhibited when our clothes fly off.

However, even twenty minutes of exercise will cause endorphins, testosterone, and circulation to our genitals to surge. 

I know you're seeing the word 'testosterone' there and thinking that the word is usually associated with men. However, that hormone works for women too! 

Let's just say it's an overall hormone of arousal in both sexes.

I have read one study that said: 

Physical activity was shown to prime a woman’s body for sexual activity by making her more sensitive to touch and increasing the efficacy of stimuli, while men experience improved sexual function and better orgasms.

(found in this article)

Maybe it's all of that additional blood rushing to those naughty bits!

Also, as you become more vigorous with the exercises, the length of time of your workouts, and include more days, well, the effects rise too.

Have you heard people discuss a runner's high?

I had a friend who was a long distance runner. He once told me about that experience, and that he also could orgasm while running. I did not believe him.

Then...as I became more involved in competing, as my workouts became more intense and longer, lo and behold, I found myself becoming randy during them?! It was crazy to believe that one could be on the verge of orgasm while exercising.

How about them apples?

It definitely made working out more fun, and when I started carrying a little something extra along in my bag. That's another post too.

So, maybe give twenty minutes a shot, and have a banana afterwards.

Music as Influence and Inspiration...

I often get asked about where my ideas come from.

Sometimes, it's based off of something I've heard, seen, fantasy...

Usually, I have the base idea in my head.

I always listen to music.

Of course, at the gym, in the house, when I sleep.

Many times, songs will impact me and the lyrics will cause images in my head, that more times than not, play into the story that I am working on.

I thought I would share some of the songs that played a large part in both of my books.

Well, these two had a huge hand in Candy & Kink.

Lola Montez - Volbeat

The Kill - Thirty Seconds to Mars

These three songs are Faith in Ripped & Twisted. 

Everything in these are constantly rolling through her mind.

Complete inspiration to evolve the character.

In This Moment - Whore

In This Moment - Blood 

Five Finger Death Punch - Coming Down

Here Kitty, Kitty

I may or may not own this exact outfit, however, Candy likes Kitty play.

We can always discuss kitty play in another post!

Ease your way in...Kinktastic Knicknacks Massage Oil Candles

I realized while going through our supply of 'products' that many may be a little intimidating or even weird to some people who may not have delved that far in yet, but are still interested on a journey into the world of the different.

This is a little item that is sweet, erotic and can always lead to more fun.

I mean, who doesn't love a massage?

Even better, what's wrong with some oiled up skin on skin action afterwards?

Now, I will admit, we have not tried these yet, but we've bought a few, and they are ready and waiting. They seem fun, give ambiance, and play all in one. Doesn't this seem more entertaining than regular old massage oil? -which by the way, there is absolutely nothing wrong with that either.

We were able to pick ours up at our favorite adult store, but they are available all over online: anywhere from Fascinations (we shop this store locally & they have a fantastic rewards plan! Or you can shop with them online) Adam  & Evecarries these as well, and they always throw in free 'gifts' with purchases. Before the advent of easily obtained internet (yes, I'm talking dial up), I may have purchased videos/dvds from there quite a lot. *cough* Even Amazon has these, but I mean why not? They've begun carrying quite a selection of hardware and toys. I've even seen these available with Groupon.

Now, while these may seem quite 'vanilla', these could also be your introduction to a little subtle wax play, you kinky bastards.

As, we have not tried these yet, I will mention that whenever there is sport with additional 'condiments', we always protect our linens with a 'play' sheet that we don't mind getting stained. Because no matter how many products we've encountered that say they do not ruin your linens, half do. Better safe than stained.

And always, this will be posted up to the Kinktastic Knicknacks page with all other product reviews.

Here's one of the product descriptions that I've pulled for you all:

Latex Love

I only have one item of latex.

It is a mask that hubs bought me.

I have played a wee bit with liquid latex, mostly applying to others and getting to peel it off of them.

However, I have become enamored by all of the variety, sensual outfits, and downright kinkerific latex ensembles out there.

I've created a board on pinterest so that I can lust after the magnificence of them.

I must admit, I am now highly curious to be wrapped up in one of these babies.

I wonder about the skin tight feel of this textile.

Plus, it just looks freak of hot.

I am leaning heavily toward latex fashion being included in my next book.

I think that something should be purchased for my 'research', no?

I love that it can be manipulated to look like something incredibly chic and fashionable or something insane and completely off the hook, fetishy. 

Yes, I definitely want to play with latex.

This was the closest that I've gotten...vinyl, lol.

Then on to the real pretties!

Beauty in Bondage

Let's face it. There is beauty in bondage.

And the images of s&m and bdsm.

I loved it from a very young age, before I even realized what it was.

Then again, I was always a little girl obsessed with the dark and macabre. 

Besides the known vintage photos of Bettie Page, which were somewhat innocent, 

I was one of those girls who also loved fashion magazines. Flipping through the pages, I fell in love with images of women in designs from Saint Laurent, Gautier, McQueen...

I wanted to be those women, wear those clothes. I still do. 

Inexplicably, my young body was also turned on by the thought of it - still am!

I suppose that should have been an indicator of things to come!

I adore how it can interspersed in a subtle way or just smacking you in the face with it blatant show.

Peruse these beautiful images.
