Seven Sexy Sins by Serenity Woods
Sin Number Three –
Gluttony
Thank
you so much for having me on your blog and for allowing me to promote my new
release from Samhain Publishing.
Seven
Sexy Sins is a full-length contemporary sexy romance with a brother’s-best-mate
theme. Set in the sub-tropical north land of New Zealand, it follows journalist Faith
Hillman and her mission to write a series of articles for a women’s magazine
based on the seven deadly sins. She relates each to a “sexy sin”, hoping to
come up with ideas to encourage bored housewives to experiment in the bedroom.
Unfortunately, however, she hasn’t done any of the sins on her list, and she’s
desperate to discover what all the fuss is about. The last person she expects
to offer his services is the gorgeous Rusty Thorne, but keeping their
relationship a secret from her over-protective brother proves harder than she
realizes…
Gluttony
is Faith’s third chosen sin. It seems like the perfect opportunity for her to
explore the connection between food and sex. She discovers that some foods are
considered sexy because they contain ingredients said to enhance a person’s sex
drive, and some because of the way they look. She packs up a picnic for Rusty
that they take to a quiet location by the side of a lake. Rusty can’t keep his
hands off her, so they have to indulge in their usual “pre-sex sex” before the
games begin. Here’s a clip from the scene, where they’ve moved onto the
chocolate body paint. All I shall say about the end is that Rusty’s creative
use of a Mars Bar is going to cause him heaps of problems when her brother
finds out what he did with it…
“I’m glad there’s chocolate,” he
said.
“You can’t have food sex and not
have chocolate. It’s another food containing a stimulant similar to endorphins.
Apparently some monasteries in Vienna banned it in the seventeenth century
because it inflamed passion.”
“The Aztecs discovered it. The Aztec
emperor Montezuma drank fifty golden goblets of chocolate a day to enhance his
sexual prowess.”
“I didn’t know that,” she said.
“Jeez, he must have been fat.” She unscrewed the lid of the jar. Inside was a
small brush, fitted into the lid.
“Where did you get this?”
“One of my readers gave me a website
address.” She took out the brush and straightened the handle, clipping it in
place. “The idea is that we paint this onto areas we’d like to be licked.
Starting with the not so obvious.”
“Otherwise it would be a very short
exercise.”
“My thoughts exactly.”
“Go on then, you first.”
She dipped the brush in the soft
chocolate and touched it to the tips of each finger on her left hand. She held
it up to show him and winked.
Rusty closed his hand around her
wrist, his thumb resting in the centre of her palm, and brought it up to his
mouth. Keeping his eyes on hers, he closed his mouth over each finger in turn,
sucking the chocolate off. She couldn’t decide whether to watch him, finding
his hot gaze and the sight of his lips sucking her so arousing, or close her
eyes, which heightened the sensation of his tongue brushing her skin. In the
end she did both in turn, sighing happily as he turned her hand over and placed
a kiss in the centre of her palm.
“My turn now.” She did the same to
him, painting his fingers before licking the chocolate off. He gave a low groan
as her mouth covered his thumb. She looked up to see his eyes closed, and she
kept her mouth there for a while, smoothing her tongue over his skin, closing
her own eyes. When she finally looked up again, he was watching her, his eyes
hot.
“Do you know what you do to me?” She
glanced down at his lap and then back up at him. “Yuh-huh.” Smiling, she dipped
the brush back in the chocolate, drawing it across her wrist.
“Oh.” He brought it up to his mouth
and licked it off gently. “This is a very useful lesson in erogenous zones.”
“I was just thinking the same.” She
copied the movement on him. “I can’t believe how erotic it is, and it’s such a
simple thing.”
“I know.” He watched her run her
tongue down his arm, and he shivered. His eyes were growing more intense with
desire by the minute. “Show me more.”
“I think the whole of my body’s one
big erogenous zone at the moment.” She brushed the chocolate in the crook of
her arm, shuddering as he removed it slowly with his mouth.
“I know what you mean.” He took the
brush from her and painted a stripe from her shoulder up her neck, and then ran
his tongue all the way up, making her tip her head to the side with a sigh.
“Show me what you like,” she said
huskily as she got to her knees.
He dipped the brush in the chocolate
and daubed his earlobe, and touched the brush to the spot behind his ear. She
leaned forward, her breasts brushing his arm, and licked slowly up to his
hairline, taking the lobe in her mouth and sucking the chocolate off. She
repeated it the other side, enjoying his sighs of pleasure.
“You now,” he said, handing her the
brush.
She took it and stroked it firmly
across her lips.
He took her in his arms and kissed
her, which smeared the chocolate across their faces and made her squeal as he
lowered her to the ground. He planted chocolate kisses across her cheeks and
chin, and placed dots with the brush on her nose and temples, kissing them off
with his chocolaty lips.
After that, things started to heat
up. They drew patterns with the body paint across their bodies and down their
legs, getting stickier by the minute, trying the backs of their knees and the
insides of their ankles, their toes, nipples, and even dobs in each other’s
navels, which made him sigh but her squeal and giggle.
“Wait a minute,” he said eventually,
holding up a hand. He looked very mischievous and she felt instantly wary.
“I’ve got something I want to try.” He pulled the cooler over and rummaged
inside. “I’m sure I saw…ah yes.” He brought out a Mars Bar.

Seven Sexy Sins by Serenity Woods
Seven Sexy Sins Blurb:
The road to passion is paved with guilty pleasures.
Faith Hillman is in a bit of a pickle. She’s been commissioned to write a series of magazine articles on spicing up your love life. She’s got the theme—the “Seven Sexy Sins”—but there’s one major problem. She hasn’t experienced any of them.
Ever since Faith’s older brother gave Rusty Thorne a black eye for kissing her on her eighteenth birthday, he’s kept his distance, waiting for the right time to make his move. This is it. She needs a research partner? He’s the man for the job.
When sex-on-legs Rusty offers his services, Faith is all over it—with one caveat. The notorious heartbreaker must sign a confidentiality contract. Just to keep him safe from her brother’s wrath, of course…and her heart off Rusty’s long list of conquests.
As they work their wicked way through the list, the implications of the contract hit Rusty as hard as the handcuffs binding his wrists to the bed. It isn’t just Faith’s touch that rocks his world. It’s the way his heart likes it that blows his defenses out of the water. And makes him wonder, when the contract ends, if he can bear to let her go.
Product Warnings :
Includes rebellious hero who enjoys inserting Tab A into Slots B, C, and even occasionally D. Also includes highly inappropriate use of a Mars Bar.
