One year ago today, Rachel Kramer Bussel rocked my world with an email containing a contract for The Big Book of Orgasms.
I didn’t see the email right away because I was coming back from Colorado and my plane had been snowed in. I ended up getting home a day later than planned, and on top of that, I’d had a date cancel on me by telling me he was seeing another girl—not ten minutes after I picked up my suitcase. Bummer, right? I got home super late and annoyed.
But then I checked my email…and started running around the house screaming like a lunatic at almost midnight.
So, I guess that makes today an anniversary of sorts—the one-year anniversary of acceptance on my first published erotica piece. Hurray!
To celebrate, I’d like to tell you about The Big Book of Orgasms in audio form from Audible!
I just finished listening to this audiobook read by the wonderfully talented Rose Caraway, and I have to tell you, it’s quite fun. Rose is extraordinary at conveying the sexiness of each individual character, as well as the overall heat of the tales themselves. I left a full review on Audible, but let’s just say that some of these stories really popped out loud, as if they were destined to be read by Rose’s divine voice. As for my little story, “The Flogger” — I may have read it live, but hearing Rose perform it was superb.
If you haven’t picked up your copy of The Big Book of Orgasms yet, why not try it on Audible? You can get it right here.
I’m going to go throw confetti around to celebrate over here, but feel free to read on for a taste of “The Flogger” from The Big Book of Orgasms!
Excerpt of “The Flogger”:
“You never told me about this.” Julian waved the flogger around, and it almost looked as if his shaft hardened.
She had to be imagining this.
“I did…once.” It was five years ago, when they’d just started telling each other their fantasies—long before they’d moved in together. She’d hidden it in the back of the closet since she never imagined it as Julian’s sort of thing.
His brow furrowed as he swung it, the tassels tapping his thighs.
“Hmm,” he said, reasoning. “Well, I suppose you should come here and…take off your clothes.”
Katie chuckled, but beneath her shirt, her nipples peaked. She walked over and dipped in for a kiss, except Julian held up his free hand. “No.” He rapped the rounded steel cap against her sternum and she jumped. “I mean it. Take them off.”
Her breath caught in her throat. Julian could be an animal in bed, but he never gave her orders.
“You heard me, Katie.” He grinned. “Do it now.”
She unbuttoned her blouse while Julian watched, and he swung the flogger back and forth, the suede leather slapping his skin. She kept her eyes locked on his pelvis, noting that his cock had indeed stiffened with the movement.
“Faster.” Julian tapped her hip. “All of it.”
A spasm rippled through her inner walls. She dropped her shirt to the floor, and Julian plucked her nipples through the sheer lace of her bra, nodding.
“Bra. Skirt. Now.”
She stripped them off.
“Good. Now take off your panties.”
Katie leaned again to kiss him, but he put a hand over her lips.
“Nope. Panties off.”
She hooked her thumbs under the waistband, her crevice already drenched before the cotton hit the floor.
“Spread your legs.”
Something in his voice sent her pulse racing.
