Celebrate Pleasurable Restraint

SAN FRANCISCO - Erotic book publisher Cleis Press enters the delirious world of torment, restraint, bondage, and desire with their latest release, Hurts So Good: Unrestrained Erotica.

 

Edited by Alison Taylor, Hurts So Good is comprised of 21 stories that celebrate every aspect of women and men in the throes of pleasurable restraint-intricately secured by ropes, handcuffs, or bound simply by a lover's command, explained Kara Wuest of Cleis Press.

 

"In ‘Omega to Alpha,' an anonymous master uses a hairbrush and his natural endowments to help a ‘good Catholic girl' shed her inhibitions," Wuest added. "A nervous sub gets more than she bargained for at the hands of a hot female tattoo artist in ‘Sting.' The two women of ‘Flick Chicks' giddily switch from top to bottom and back. Whether the characters here indulge in overt physical bondage or the psychological restraint of sexual submission, they discover the surprising delight of complete surrender."

 

The following is a small excerpt from Stephen Elliott's "My Mainstream Girlfriend."

"Yesterday my girlfriend came over and something happened that made me think I might not be kinky anymore. She was wearing ruby slippers, like Dorothy in The Wizard of Oz. But she was also wearing torn fishnets with a garter belt, sexy underwear, a long black dress over a lacy slip. A lot of women would feel self-conscious dressed so sexy, but I have an awesome girlfriend."
