Painted Doll



Painted Doll

By M. Christian

Once more acclaimed author M. Christian writes of the art of seduction. One of the pleasures of the dystopic future are erotists, professionals who paint their clients' bared skin with neurochemicals that induce sensuality. Erotists offer landscapes of ecstasy, pain, joy and delight. Few citizens can afford the skills of the talented Domino. Fewer still know her identity is but a mask.
      Beneath the facade, Claire hides from a vicious crime lord who would not only kill her but her childhood lover. But the mask of Domino is beginning to crack...
    Painted Doll is futuristic noir tale, a wildly imaginative erotic adventure, exploring who we are and the sexual awakenings that occur when we become someone else.

Hard Road

Hard Road, Easy Riding

Lesbian Biker Stories
Edited by Sacchi Green & Rekelle Valencia

Take a ride—on the wild side.

Sex should be  intense, joyful, and liberating—exactly as written in these edgy and uninhibited stories. While there are many anthologies of lesbian erotica available, none so far have focused on the interaction between the lifestyles and sexual adventures of lesbian bikers. What’s sexier than a hot woman, clad in form-fitting leather, fiercely in control of the Iron Horse between her legs?
