Venus in Furs

Leopold von Sacher-Masoch

Summary

Severin is so infatuated with Wanda that he requests to be treated as her slave and encourages her to treat him in progressively more degrading ways. At first Wanda does not want to, but later embraces the idea; though at the same time, she disdains Severin for allowing her to do so. Severin describes his feelings during these experiences as suprasensuality. Wanda treats him brutally as a servant, and recruits a trio of African women to dominate him. The relationship arrives at a crisis point when Wanda herself meets a man to whom she would like to submit. Severin, humiliated by Wanda's new lover, ceases to desire to submit, stating that men should dominate women until the time when women are equal to men in education and rights. Probably the first book which blatantly addresses the issue of female sexual domination, this is today a classic of the genre and it is the author from whom the word masochism takes its name.

Knocked Up and Tied Down

Melinda Minx

Nikki 
 
 
 
Elijah Leeds has always been my fantasy. He was the one man I wanted, but could never have. And now—six long years after I first laid eyes on him—he's finally become my dom. 
 
 
 
His lightest touch demands my full submission, and obeying him transforms all my darkest fantasies into blissful reality. He ties me up, chains me to the bed, and demands my utter obedience . . . 
 
 
 
But he never asked me to get pregnant. He's not a man who wants white picket fences, and I don't know how I'm going to tell him that I'm having his baby. 
 
 
 
Elijah 
 
 
 
I wasn't supposed to touch her. It took every last shred of my willpower to keep my hands off her—to not tie her up six years ago and demand submission. 
 
 
 
But I was good. For once I was good, and I let her go. But now she's back, and now it's time to be bad. I'm going to tie her up extra tight to make up for lost time. I'm going to make her scream even louder. She's mine now. 
 
 
 
She'll obey me. She'll submit. And if she's good, I'll make her feel things she never knew she could feel. There's a pleasure that can be found only in pain, and I'll give her plenty of both. 
 
  
 
She'll beg me for it, but I'm the dom, and it's me who makes the demands. 
 
  
 
Contains mature themes.

Anderson The Pool Service Man...

Ruan Willow

In book three of My Filthy Hotwife Adventures, young buck Anderson, the sexy lumberjack of a pool man, is coming back to pleasure Laney, the newly minted hotwife. She doesn't think he could possibly top the intensity and excitement of last time, but she can't wait to find out. Laney and John had ventured into spicing up their marriage with the hotwife way of life, directed by John as the dominant in their relationship. He decided to curate and manage extreme pleasure for his gorgeous wife of many years, much to her delight, and his. This includes spicy dates with others, especially the service men who come to their home.
Anderson had taken care of their pool and done manual labor around their home for years, making the muscle-clad younger man eye candy for the always-hungry Laney. The lure of him taking care of her again, servicing her as their bull, was her idea of a dream come true.
Whatever would come of it, all three were ready for their triad union to take them to the most climactic heights their lusty appetites might thrust them into. But John's plan takes a turn Laney doesn't expect. Being edged in her wants is legitimately maximizing, of course, but when John's ministrations cause Laney's frustrations to quell, they turn into a surge of passionate fodder. That's when things really hit the hot button with a fiery force.
Stay tuned for the next installment of Servicing the Work Men, My Filthy Hotwife Adventures (book 4) when Laney and John venture into Servicing the Handy Man, A Leisurely Working Retiree.
