I love Francesca&#8217;s stuff. I remember years ago when I was privileged to help critique one of her novels.</p>
<p>Here&#8217;s the blurb:</p>
<p><strong><span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:x-small;">Alpha female Serena Goldwolf has spent a lifetime vowing never to be a submissive mate to any Alpha male. But all it takes is one surprisingly sexual meeting with Damien Blackwolf, a dissatisfied client of her shapeshifter dating site Predator-Match.com, and she’s down on all fours, wanting to be mounted by the hottest male on two legs—or four—whom she’s ever met.</span></strong></p>
<p><strong><span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:x-small;"> </span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:Arial;font-size:x-small;">Damien Blackwolf doesn’t understand why the voluptuous Serena won’t admit they’re True Mates. To convince her, he decides to bring out her baser desires by dragging her off to someplace private to get to know her…intimately. But how can he convince her of their destiny when she runs away from him? Guess he’ll just have to hunt her down and <em>persuade</em> her.</span></strong></p>
<p><strong><span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:x-small;"> </span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:Arial;font-size:x-small;">In a passionate battle of wills, there most definitely<em>can</em> be two winners.</span></strong></p>
<p>I urge you to go over and take a look.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://michellepolarisblog.files.wordpress.com/2011/07/97814199341551.jpg"><img class="alignleft size-medium wp-image-756" title="9781419934155" src="http://michellepolarisblog.files.wordpress.com/2011/07/97814199341551.jpg?w=182&#038;h=300" alt="" width="182" height="300" /></a>This is the moment when you click directly over to <a href="http://www.jasminejade.com/p-9438-destiny-calls.aspx">Ellora&#8217;s Cave</a> and check out the brand new release by Samantha Wayland, one of the best menage writers I know. <a href="http://www.jasminejade.com/p-9438-destiny-calls.aspx">Destiny Calls</a> has released, and this book is even hotter than the last one Samantha put out, <a href="http://www.jasminejade.com/p-8403-with-grace.aspx">With Grace</a>.</p>
<p>Here&#8217;s the blurb for Destiny Calls:</p>
<p><span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:x-small;">Patrick didn’t think it would be a big deal to kiss his best friend Brandon. Hell, they’d done crazier things to avoid a bar fight. He was totally unprepared to be wildly turned on, the kiss opening up new avenues of pleasure he’d never dreamt of—Patrick, after all, was straight, even if Brandon wasn’t.</span></p>
<p><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:Arial;font-size:x-small;">Destiny’s never been afraid to ask for what she wants. When she sees Patrick and Brandon together, she knows <em>exactly</em> what she wants—the three of them in bed together, preferably with her in the middle of a hot, naked-man sandwich with her two best friends.</span></p>
<p><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:Arial;font-size:x-small;">When Brandon finds himself hunted by an unknown enemy, the three friends find themselves fighting for their lives—and their hearts.</span></p>
<p>I was privileged enough to be able to critique this book as it was written and so I am particularly psyched to see it out on the virtual shelves. You know it&#8217;s good when I love it and there isn&#8217;t even any BDSM in the story. (grin)</p>
<p>Run, don&#8217;t walk, to buy this story.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Safe, sane and consensual,</p>
<p>Michelle</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I&#8217;m joining the effort to pass on information about a very scary, little known genetic and terminal disease called <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gardner's_syndrome">Gardner&#8217;s Syndrome</a>. One very devoted and lovely Ellora&#8217;s Cave fan has been devastated by this illness, losing her husband to it and in real danger of losing her children as well. She has asked people read and forward the below information to spread knowledge about this syndrome. Knowledge means money and attention to research and boy is it needed. No matter how horrendous our lives, we as a species need hope. This fan reads erotic romance to escape her reality and remember love, excitement and romance. That in itself is one kind of hope. Let&#8217;s give her another by spreading the word. Permission to forward the below is granted.</p>
<p>LIGHT THE NIGHT FOR GS</p>
<p>Gardner&#8217;s Syndrome/familial adenomatous polyposis is a chronic, incredibly<br />
painful and terminal disease that approximately 200,000 American men, women and<br />
children endure without hope for a cure, and Americans are not the only ones<br />
affected—it hits every age group, ethnicity, and country on the planet. There is<br />
little to no research being done, little medical knowledge to help the doctors<br />
who deal with it (I was told by a doctor that all he knew of it came from ONE<br />
paragraph from one of his medical textbooks that he more or less memorized to<br />
pass an exam while in med school), and often, by the time the diagnosis is made,<br />
the damage done is far too extensive to hope for much quality of life.</p>
<p>Worse still, the average life span for anyone is 35-40 (meaning age at time of<br />
death, not how long you have after diagnosis); far too frequently, however,<br />
children and teenagers are struck down before they can ever have anything<br />
resembling a life.</p>
<p>There are no celebrities to help publicize the need for help or to educate the<br />
public, nor are there organizations offering support and help to those who<br />
suffer it, or for their families; medical poverty is the norm, along with<br />
guesswork from medical teams and abandonment by families, spouses, and friends.</p>
<p>It&#8217;s more than time for a change, it&#8217;s time for action. On August 17, 2011, we<br />
are asking that everyone who reads these words join us in lighting the darkness<br />
of ignorance by making luminarias and lining their driveways, walkways, porches<br />
and/or any path that leads to their front door.</p>
<p>Let the world know there is a danger, a nightmare no one knows about, and share<br />
hope with those who have little by lighting their darkness.</p>
<p>I&#8217;ll be lighting the first one, and on it will be written my husband&#8217;s name and<br />
the date of his death on one side, and on the other, LIGHT THE NIGHT FOR<br />
GARDNER&#8217;S SYNDROME.</p>
<p>Please email this to everyone you know; forward it, post it on a blog, print it<br />
up and put it on bulletin boards….but share it. Don&#8217;t let one more person die<br />
because the night stayed dark.</p>

<p>Be at peace today everyone. Safe, sane and consensual,</p>
<p>Michelle</p>

<p>Woohoo! It&#8217;s release day for the next 1-800-DOM-help book today. <a href="http://www.jasminejade.com/p-9337-begging-for-it.aspx">Begging For It</a>, by Delilah Devlin, is out today at Ellora&#8217;s Cave. Below is the blurb:</p>
<p><em>She needs punishment&#8230;before she deserves pleasure</em></p>
<p><em>Tragedy scarred TJ Lipton. Now the only way she can find pleasure is when it&#8217;s delivered with a heavy-handed dose of S&amp;M. But finding a lover who can give her what she needs proves and elusive quest&#8211;until she finds the sex club <strong>Unfettered</strong> and a Dom named Cross McNally.</em></p>
<p><em>Cross understands all too well what drives TJ. He takes command of her body to give her everything she needs&#8211;restraint, the stinging kiss of a flogger, the thrill of a three-way&#8211;a sexual adventure that pulls her beyond her painful past and has her begging for more of  his tender brand of domination.</em></p>
<p>Go check out the story. Here&#8217;s the <a href="http://www.jasminejade.com/productspecs/9781419934179.htm">link</a> to the excerpt.</p>
<p>And as always, here is the teaser for the series. There are so many fantastic tales in this collection, you&#8217;ll enjoy going back and reading them all.</p>
<p><strong>The Magic</strong></p>
<p><strong>The magic begins with the appearance of the business card. Sleek black print on a pristine white background—unassuming in its appearance. Those brave enough to call the number will begin a journey that will explore their greatest desires.</strong></p>
<p><strong>Once the call is made, the Operator goes to work. Somehow he knows just what every caller needs, always able to find the answer the caller seeks.  </strong></p>
<p><strong>Callers may be directed to Unfettered, a new club in town, one nobody has heard of. It provides a safe haven for all who enter. Members are free to explore their every desire&#8230;even those they weren&#8217;t aware of. Little do they know Unfettered will disappear once those yearnings have eased.</strong></p>
<p><strong>Submissives who don&#8217;t know how to handle their Dominants. Masters looking for the perfect sub. People who need just a little push to admit vanilla isn&#8217;t their favorite flavor. The card finds them all.</strong></p>
<p><strong>And once you dial 1-800-DOM-help <em>anything</em> can happen.</strong></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://www.jasminejade.com/p-9087-downstroke.aspx"><img class="alignleft size-medium wp-image-718" title="downstroke_msr" src="http://michellepolarisblog.files.wordpress.com/2011/04/downstroke_msr3.jpg?w=184&#038;h=300" alt="" width="184" height="300" /></a> This month Desiree Holt celebrates her 100<sup>th</sup> release with <em><a href="http://www.jasminejade.com/p-9087-downstroke.aspx">Downstroke</a></em> from Ellora’s Cave. <em>Downstroke</em> is the story of lovers, reunited after twenty years, trying to bridge a gulf of bitterness while outwitting a killer.</p>
<p><em>It’s been twenty years since Charley Roper and Dallas Creed parted with great bitterness. In that time she’s made a career for herself with the FBI and private security and he’s been a country rock music icon…tumbled to the bottom and risen again. Now someone’s trying to kill him and Morgan Creed wants Charley to protect his brother and find out who’s after him. When they meet again after all this time it’s obvious the chemistry is still there, stronger than ever. They’re older but are they wiser? Caught up in the bitter wash of memories and the tension of a killer in stalking mode, Charley and Dallas begin a roller coaster ride that is emotional, erotic and suspenseful.  Is their love strong enough after twenty years to pull them back together?</em> </p>
<p>As part of the celebration, Desiree is giving away a prize every day of the reader&#8217;s choice from her backlist. Names will be drawn from those who post comments and a grand prize of a refurbished Netbook with digital DVD drive will be awarded to one lucky winner. After you (the reader) post, go to Desiree&#8217;s web site at <a href="http://www.desireeholt.com/">www.desireeholt.com</a>  and enter to win the grand prize.</p>
<p>And to help her celebrate I’m giving you a taste of one of her other books. Below find an excerpt from one of her recent books, <a href="http://www.jasminejade.com/p-8951-delight-me.aspx">Delight Me</a>, part of the 1-800-DOM-help series in which I&#8217;m also a part.</p>
<p><a href="http://michellepolarisblog.files.wordpress.com/2011/04/delight-me-cover.jpg"><img class="size-medium wp-image-719 aligncenter" title="Delight Me cover" src="http://michellepolarisblog.files.wordpress.com/2011/04/delight-me-cover.jpg?w=182&#038;h=300" alt="" width="182" height="300" /></a></p>
<p><strong>Delight Me excerpt</strong>:</p>
<p><em>The room was redolent with the scent of the cinnamon candles. Dani Maguire ducked her head, trying to find a breath of clean air. Alan loved the scent of cinnamon. Even insisted she drop cinnamon-scented crystals in the water when she bathed. But she’d reached a point where the aroma of cinnamon nearly made her gag.</em></p>
<p><em>Or maybe it was Alan Powell who made her gag. Two years in this relationship and try as she might, lately she couldn’t seem to find the key to make it work. He was a loving Dom, demanding but considerate, yet something deep inside her kept rebelling.</em></p>
<p><em>Still kneeling on the floor, hands manacled behind her, lips aching from stretching around the girth of Alan’s cock, she wondered where they could go from here. She didn’t love him. The sex was still great but she no longer found it…fulfilling. And that presented a problem.</em></p>
<p><em>Alan bent to unlock the handcuffs and used his hands beneath her elbows to help her rise. His tall, lean body dwarfed her small one, surrounding her with his masculinity, a sensation she usually enjoyed. But lately everything seemed to be just a little off.</em></p>
<p><em>“I worked you hard tonight,” he murmured, long fingers brushing her hair back from her face. “I’m going to draw a hot bath for you, with those salts that you like, and bathe you just the way you always enjoy it.”</em></p>
<p><em>But did she enjoy it? Did it please her? Or had it become an irritant? What she really wanted was to bathe him.</em></p>
<p><em>Get over it, Dani. You’re just going through a phase.</em></p>
<p><em>But was she?</em></p>
<p><em>She stayed in the same position until Alan lifted her and carried her to the bathroom, lowering her gently into the fragrant bath. The heated water stung the skin of her ass where Alan had disciplined her earlier. She’d been less than enthusiastic about using her mouth on him, and although she’d done her best to hide it, he’d been all too aware of it. Bending her over the bed, he’d used the thin quirt on her, striping her buttocks with ten well-placed strikes.</em></p>
<p><em>When he finished, he’d lowered her to the floor, held her mouth open with his fingers and worked his cock back and forth across her tongue. Somehow she’d dredged up a semblance of desire and given him the release he needed. She knew he wasn’t happy but when he finished he hadn’t said a word. Simply bent down to kiss her and went to draw the bath.</em></p>
<p><em>“Just relax,” Alan murmured, squeezing the bath sponge. “You know I’ll take care of you. Don’t I always?”</em></p>
<p><em>Yes, he did. But somehow over the past few months she found herself enjoying it less and less.</em></p>
<p><em>“Dani?” His voice sharpened. “I asked you a question.”</em></p>
<p><em>She blinked her eyes. “Yes, Master. You do.”</em></p>
<p><em>That wasn’t the question she needed to answer though. She needed to understand why that care had suddenly become so suffocating. Why she had begun to resent it in little ways.</em></p>
<p><em>One of his large hands cupped the back of her head, bracing her body as he skimmed the sponge over her breasts. She closed her eyes and tried to relax at the light-as-a-feather touch. A pinch on one nipple startled her and her eyes flew open. Alan’s eyes were staring directly into hers, a strange look playing over his face.</em></p>
<p><em>“Tell me to pinch your nipples again,” he commanded.</em></p>
<p><em>She swallowed. “Pinch my nipples again, Master. Please.”</em></p>
<p><em>He took each one in turn between thumb and forefinger and squeezed them hard enough that lust shot straight to her core, making the inner muscles of her cunt flutter.</em></p>
<p><em>“Well, that hasn’t changed.” His voice had an oddly hard edge to it.</em></p>
