Book excerpt: Reader Advisory: This story is for mature audiences only and features intensely erotic situations, bdsm play, spanking, forced exhibition, public humiliation, submission and dominance. All characters are 18 or older. Made to Show My Curves contains three BBW BDSM-themed stories of intense eroticism, dominance and submission, forced exhibition, discipline, spanking, and humiliation in all forms. Made to Show My Curves Erica's dominant, Jonathon, has come up with an interesting way to involve her in a dinner party he intends to throw for some of his old law school friends. Although she is self-conscious around the high society that Jonathon moves in, he is going to have her serve the food over the course of the evening and has designed a very special outfit for her to wear for the occasion. The guests of the party will be given buttons to trigger a vibrating harness underneath Erica's dress and are encouraged to use it as a way of thanking her for her good service. If that weren't enough, an already horrified Erica is told that the penalty of spill or misstep will be to serve dessert without the harness, or the dress. As the night unfolds, her attempts to avoid this terrifying prospect may accomplish nothing but to place her at the center of a spectacle more provocative than anything originally planned. Made to Show My Curves: Too Much to Hide Since coming to live with her dominant Jonathon, neglect and boredom have become things of Erica's past. When she finishes her to do list and goes to him for a little excitement and attention, little does she know that he has in mind will bring her as much excitement and attention as she will be able to handle. Although Jonathon begins their outing by bribing Erica with a gift from a sex shop, he is well aware that she secretly enjoys his hobby of putting her in compromising and often humiliating public situations. Her secret's safe with him, of course, but as for the rest of what she might try to keep covered up ? it's all fair game. Made to Show My Curves: Stealing the Show Jonathon has found a new toy, and he believes he has a way to program it so that it will measure a woman's arousal. When he catches Erica ogling a group of male models across the street from where they are having dinner, he decides to bring her in on his little experiment. If she can control herself and her body's responses while sitting through a male underwear fashion show, she'll be free to spend the rest of her vacation exactly how she wants. Eager to please and a little tipsy, Jen boasts that the challenge will be easy, but Robert knows her too well. For each threshold you pass on the thermometer, he adds, you take off a piece of clothing right there and then. Erica agrees, secretly turned on by such high stakes, but she knows that if she isn't careful, arousal and humiliation will form a compounding feedback loop that will leave her the center of an impromptu exhibition more than sufficient to steal the show.

Excerpt He fished in his pocket and produced a long and narrow object in a plastic case. "An interesting souvenir I found in the shops today," he said, holding it out for my inspection. "A digital thermometer?" I asked in confusion. "A little experiment," he said. "A challenge for you. A fun one." "I don't understand." "It's programmable," he explained, twisting it so that I could see several buttons at the end opposite the metal sensor. "I can set it to beep at preset temperatures, and it's sensitive to hundredths of a degree." "So?" "So, that means it can be used to measure blood flow." "I don't - " And then I understood what he was saying, and I realized the thought that had put that wicked smile on his handsome face. I blushed furiously and crossed my legs under the table. The notion was so ... demeaning. But that was his favorite game, of course: putting my head and my body in conflict and confusion. "So you want to put it ..." I said in trepidation. "That's right." I took a gulp of wine. It warmed my stomach and dulled my hesitations to the point that my desire to make Jonathon happy could overcome them. I could tell from the look on his face that he wanted this - wanted me to say yes. How could I say anything else when he looked at me that way? "This is what we're going to do," he said. "When I found this in the shop, I decided to do a bit of reading, and I think I found some numbers we can put to good use. We'll set five thresholds. Each time you pass one of those thresholds, it'll beep. If you can stay at level 3 or lower, you don't have to come to the gallery with me tomorrow." I swirled the wine in the glass. The idea was starting to grow on me. "You don't think I can do it, yeah?" "Of course I do," he said. "That's what makes it fun. If I thought you couldn't win, then I'd just be taking advantage of you, wouldn't I?" He said it with a grin on his face that made it me doubt he believed what he was saying. The look was infectious, and I found myself grinning back at him and wanting to rise to the challenge. "Men think women are always as horny as they are. I've got more self-control in my pinky," I said, waggling the finger at him. "Really?" He said, delighted. "Then maybe we should make it more interesting." "Make it as interesting as you want," I boasted, made courageous by the wine and by his obvious pleasure at my confidence. "I'm not losing this one." "Alright. Then each time the thermometer beeps, you take off a piece of clothing." "I - what?" "Well why not? You said this would be easy." I didn't know how to respond. He obviously wanted me to say yes, but ... taking my clothes off? Why couldn't the stakes be just a little bit lower? But of course I knew the answer, and if I had to be honest, in the very deepest parts of me, I found it a little exciting. Terrifying, yes, but exciting.

Book excerpt: Reader Advisory: This story is for mature audiences only and features intensely erotic situations, bdsm play, spanking, forced exhibition, public humiliation, submission and dominance. All characters are 18 or older. Her submission is personal, but her humiliation will be public ? Since coming to live with her dominant Jonathon, neglect and boredom have become things of Erica's past. When she finishes her to do list and goes to him for a little excitement and attention, little does she know that he has in mind will bring her as much excitement and attention as she will be able to handle.

Her secret's safe with him, of course, but as for the rest of what she might try to keep covered up ? it's all fair game. Excerpt: "Erica?" I heard his voice call out softly. "Here, sir," I said through the crack. "Pass me out your clothes, please." I squirmed as conflicting emotions of dismay and excitement fought within me. He didn't want to give me any choice. He didn't want me to see what he had picked out for me until I had already committed and until I couldn't say no. Reluctantly, I folded my sweater, skirt and blouse and passed them under the door. "Panties and bra, too, Erica," he insisted. A knee-jerk objection caught in my throat and I stared helplessly at myself in the little changing room mirror. I didn't know if I was ready for this, and yet ... I trusted him. It was so much easier to just be his, do what he wanted and lose myself in the aftermath, good and bad, without any of the responsibility. It felt so good, being his, that it almost didn't matter. What happened happened. "Yes, sir," I said, not trying to hide the quaver in my voice. In the end, I always did as he asked, but I wanted him to know that this prospect frightened me more than a little. I stepped out of my panties and unclasped my bra, trying to imagine myself in the comfort of our home and not in the back of an unfamiliar department store with nothing to cover myself. "Thank you," he said as he took the precious garments from my proffered hand. There was a rustling, and then a little bundle replaced them under the door frame. I picked it up and waited for more. Perhaps it just looked small. I unrolled the cloth and spread it on the bench. My heart sank. What I had at first taken for one garment was in fact two. The tank top was simple, unadorned, and very thin. When I rolled the cloth in my hand, I could see my fingers on the other side. Folded inside the top was a skirt. The fabric was a bit thicker, but it was so short that it did not stretch more than halfway from my wrist to my elbow. I looked at them in dismay, and turned back to the door. "Isn't there more, sir?" "No more," he said. "Now hurry up and put them on. We have a bus to catch and we still need to check out." I pulled the top on first. It really was as see-through as I had feared. For better or worse, I had the body type of a woman who simply can't go braless without attracting attention, and the state of my breasts was at its most unmistakable now within this flimsy cloth. Even I couldn't look at myself in the mirror without staring at them, so what on earth were other people going to do? It seemed like nothing I did could get it to hang in a normal way. It insisted on clinging to me in all the most embarrassing places. At least the skirt wasn't see-through, for the most part. On the other hand, it was short enough that sitting without crossing my legs was out of the question, and bending over would be, well, even more out of the question ? out of the question ten times over. I turned halfway around and tried to convince myself that having a bit of ass showing even when standing wouldn't be something people would notice. Sometimes it was nice having a lot of ass in the caboose, and I knew that it drove Jonathon crazy, but right now I would have given a lot for that part of me to be a little less prominent. "Alright," I said. "I'm coming out."

This book was released on 2014-08-04 with total page 25 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Reader Advisory: This story is for mature audiences only and features intensely erotic situations, bdsm play, spanking, forced exhibition, public humiliation, submission and dominance. All characters are 18 or older. Victoria's partner David has always been a gentle and forgiving dominant, often indulging her whims and preferring to let her play her part rather than resort to harsh discipline or exploit her naturally trusting ways. But Victoria's obedience has begun to slip, and David is forced to accept that a change is needed. To begin anew, he invites a fellow dominant and his submissive to dinner, thinking that their much stricter relationship might provide the eye opener he is loathe to inflict directly on his supposedly fragile submissive. Victoria is excited at the prospect, but soon realizes that the evening will be far more intense than she is prepared for. As the night escalates, she will find herself torn between her natural reservations and the need to prove herself an equal of the visiting submissive in the eyes of their men. In shockingly little time, the drive to prove her devotion and obedience will have her doing things she never thought she could do ? and still falling short. Excerpt: I looked up. Unintentionally, my eyes flicked first to the man standing on the threshold. His face was dark and intelligent, and his cheeks were angular in a very becoming way. He wore an immaculate suit and a coat was folded over an arm. Quickly I looked away, knowing I had permission only to seek out my counterpart. I followed the direction the man's hand indicated and took in a beautiful woman, slightly larger and perhaps a year younger than me. Her hair was dark and tied back, and a studded leather collar adorned her throat. She wore a tight, low-cut leather vest and white leather skirt that emphasized the ample curves of her body. Her black stockings led down into three inch stilettos. I gave her a small smile, thinking that it was my role to welcome her into the penthouse. She only returned my look with very large eyes and a meek expression that did not seem to acknowledge my existence. "Show her into the dining room," Ewan instructed me. "David and I have some things to discuss in his office before dinner." "Yes, sir," I said. I turned and led her out of the entrance hall and around into the dining room. Her footsteps were small and clicked quietly on the hardwood floor. I went to offer her a chair, but when I turned I saw that she had taken a kneeling position on the floor a few steps back from the chair I had offered her. Were we not allowed at the table? A little taken aback, I watched her. She was sitting back on her heels with her eyes fixed on the floor in front of her. Her posture was stiffly erect and expectant, her chest was thrust out, and her hands were clasped behind her back. Her behavior made me second-guess myself. I had assumed we would sit at the table, but now I didn't want to do anything out of turn. The point of this dinner was to learn, after all. A little dubious, I walked over and lowered myself beside her. I did my best to imitate her position as well, but looking first at her and then back at myself I found that I couldn't entirely manage it. "Have you and Ewan been together long?" I asked, feeling a little silly as we knelt together on the floor. Joanna did not respond right away. She shifted slightly, still staring intently at the floor. "Master says it's wrong to talk to other submissives without his permission," she said. "Oh, sorry," I said at a loss. I cast a sidelong glance at her rigid form. Was this what was expected of me? Was this the standard I was going to be held to? I didn't really know what to make of it. She obviously took satisfaction in being this way, and I couldn't deny that it turned me on a little bit the way Ewan controlled her, completely and unequivocally even in absentia. Would I be that way? Would I be able to be? We waited in silence for maybe twenty minutes. I couldn't see a clock, but it felt like a very long time. Doubts surfaced, swirled, and then faded, only to rise again.

Book excerpt: Reader Advisory: This story is for mature audiences only and features intensely erotic situations, BBWs, bdsm play, discipline, public spanking, submissiveness and dominance. All characters are 18 or older. Victoria's first hours in her new master's house have been intense ones, but she knows they have only scratched the surface. Before she has done little more than catch her breath, it's time to meet the other submissives in the master's household and learn just exactly what she has gotten herself into. Far from being allowed to wade in slowly, Victoria's initiation into this tight little community will mean getting tossed directly into the center of its many different flavors of discipline and power play. By the time her first morning has come to a close, she will have a lot more to think about than why there isn't a number on the mailbox. Excerpt: "Yes, Master," several of them agreed and the others nodded obediently. "Her shorter time here makes it all the more important that her experience is a positive one." Again they agreed, smiles breaking onto some of their faces. I could feel excitement rising in the room. There was a slight teasing note in Master's voice. It was as though he and the women at the table were in on an inside joke, as though they all knew what was coming and Master was being deliberately slow in getting to it: tantalizing them under the guise of introducing me. Slowly, Master strode to the head of the table, a hand stroking his chin and that infectiously mischievous smile on his lips. "For those of you who haven't heard," he went on, "Victoria and I encountered each other at her audition for the Tremboix Society. Isn't that right?" "Yes, Master," I agreed. He nodded, his hands splayed lazily on the wooden table and his eyes closed. "Quite a performance." A slight rustling passed through his audience. When he reopened his eyes, they fell as though by coincidence upon a small spiral-bound notebook lying in the center of the table which I had not noticed. "And what's that? The Log?" he said as though surprised. He reached out one hand and drew it towards him. A collective shiver along the table confirmed that whatever had everyone so on edge had a great deal to do with that unremarkable little book. He licked a finger, drew it open, and flicked through several pages. "My goodness," he said. "Look at this. Would you look at this. Four days I'm away and you ladies acquire a rap-sheet like this?" He tutted softly, turning a page back and then forward again. "Now I understand the nervousness. We have some serious accounts that need settling, don't we?" The sighs and shivering had stopped. He now commanded the room in utter silence. "Who was my record keeper this week?" he asked. "Me, Master," a blonde woman seated two down from the end answered him. She had long, elegant limbs and a delicate face that was fixed in an expression of nervous expectation: a strange mixture of dread and excitement. Even sitting down she was two inches taller than the women to either side of her, and her pale skin was flushed. Master shook his head and tutted again. "Naomi, Naomi, Naomi. All this happens when I leave you in charge?" Naomi seemed to be holding her breath. Master looked at her paralyzed, blushing form. "That's ten spanks, isn't it? For a house poorly run?" Around the table the women nodded in confirmation. "Would you come up here, please, where everyone can see you?" Naomi rose carefully from her chair and made her way around the table. Master took his own chair and turned it around so that the back of it faced the room. Naomi stopped beside him and stood waiting with nervous hands clasped over her bare stomach. "Apologize to everybody, please. They are going to be punished because you couldn't keep them in line. If you had done your job, none of this would be necessary." She turned and faced the onlookers. "I'm sorry," she said in a weak voice. "I should have been better." She seemed to include me in her apology. Not yet understanding what that meant, I took it to be flattering. Already I was a part of something.

Book excerpt: Reader Advisory: This story is for mature audiences only and features intensely erotic situations, bdsm play, spanking, humiliation, discipline, punishment, submission and dominance. All characters are 18 or older. Emma's young and handsome boss has always taken a special interest in his curviest employee, ever since she first came to work for him at the age of sixteen. After Emma loses the order form of a very important client, he punishes her as he often has before: with a sound spanking. But on this occasion, she settles onto his lap to savor her punishment under his strong hands only soon to find herself in the throes of a very loud orgasm. When questioned, she is forced to admit that she has always been hopelessly aroused by the discipline her boss administers. Now that all feelings are out in the open, will this day prove a nightmare or fulfill the fantasy she has never allowed herself to believe was possible? Excerpt: After that long, delightful moment had passed, I opened my eyes. He had stopped hitting me. The room was quiet. I could feel a dribble of liquid running down the inside of my thigh and seeping into the fabric of his pants. "Stand up, Emma," he said quietly. Shakily, and with his help, I lifted myself off his legs and started to stand. I wobbled for a moment, and then found my balance, and he took his steadying hands away. I kept my eyes locked on the ground. I couldn't bear to look at him. "That's never happened before," he said, his tone deceptively mild. My cheeks burned hotter but I could not think of anything to say. "Would you care to explain it?" My eyes locked on the floor and my face growing redder still, I shook my head. "I thought I was joking when I said you enjoyed being disciplined," he said. "But it's true, isn't it?" I bit my lip, trying to tell myself this was all a bad dream and what had just happened had not actually happened. "All this time I thought I was punishing you when you got out of line, but you've been enjoying it. Answer me." I drew in a shuddering breath and managed to look at his feet. "Yes, sir," I said. I physically recoiled as the word 'sir' emerged from my mouth again. "I'm sorry," I blurted, close to tears. "I never ? I mean, it's just ? I didn't mean to. I'm sorry. I don't try to make you angry with me or anything. It's just the way it affects me. The way being around you ? " I clamped a hand over my mouth, horrified that I had said too much. Even without glancing up, I could feel the way he was looking at me. I stared at the floor and noticed that my skirt was still pulled up and my panties still bunched. Another hot wave of humiliation rose in me at the sight of my ripe, over-generous body exposed the way it was, and I hurriedly straightened my underwear and pulled my skirt down. "Perhaps this explains a few things," he said. "Maybe I should not be so surprised. Maybe it's my fault that I did not see it before." I dared a shy glance up at him to see how mad he looked. To my relief, his expression was thoughtful, rather than the anger or betrayal I had dreaded seeing there. "Well clearly, Emma, the arrangement we have been operating under cannot continue, can it? You've given me a lot to think about." Nervously, I straightened my skirt again. If only he would say something definite, something to indicate how he felt about this. I could not deny that a small part of me wanted him to be glad or maybe even a little intrigued. But that was just a childish fantasy, too much to hope for. "I think it would be best if you took the afternoon off," he said after a moment. "But it's clear we need to talk about this - when there isn't work to be done. Come by my apartment, would you, after I've locked up for the night." I bobbed and nodded. "Yes, s-" I shook my head, as though to clear it, and began to move towards the door. "And Emma?" he said. "Yes?" "You haven't lost any more orders you might want to tell me about, have you?" I shook my head, even my ears burning at this final jab, and left the room.

All characters are 18 or older. Victoria's first hours in her new master's house have been intense ones, but she knows they have only scratched the surface. Before she has done little more than catch her breath, it's time to meet the other submissives in the master's household and learn just exactly what she has gotten herself into.

By the time her first morning has come to a close, she will have a lot more to think about than why there isn't a number on the mailbox. Yielding Curves: The Second Trilogy follows Victoria over the course of her week as a submissive in the house of discipline run by the mysterious leader of the Tremboix Society. What begins as a hesitant experiment in the world of forbidden pleasure quickly careens into something much more serious, and the promises that they would not become too attached begin to erode. In the heat of the moment – and the moments get very hot indeed – who can say what will become possible and what will remain unattainable fantasy? Excerpt I turned just enough to catch how her face fell and reddened at the news. "I..." she began, but trailed off. "Up here." She drew a breath and stood. The legs of her chair made a scraping sound against the hardwood of the floor and she winced. "Here," he repeated unsympathetically, pointing to a spot at the head of the table. She moved into place on unsteady legs and then turned back to regard us - the audience of her humiliation and punishment - with that blushing face. She reddened very attractively, I noticed with slight envy. Her cheeks took on a very soft glow and her eyes stayed very round as she watched Master. "Tell me," he said to her as she stood at attention. "Tell what, sir?" she asked. "Why did you fail the inspection?" "I - I don't know, sir. I didn't know I had until you told me." "You know, Mary-Anne, I don't really believe you." She looked at the ground, flustered and stammering. After a few seconds she fell silent and she closed her eyes. Master watched her coolly. Another moment ticked by and then she opened her eyes and raised them to meet his.

Book excerpt: A sharp and arresting people's-eye view of real life in Afghanistan after the Taliban Soon after the bombing of Kabul ceased, award-winning journalist and women's rights activist Ann Jones set out for the shattered city, determined to bring help where her country had brought destruction. Here is her trenchant report from inside a city struggling to rise from the ruins. Working among the multitude of impoverished war widows, retraining Kabul's long-silenced English teachers, and investigating the city's prison for women, Jones enters a large community of female outcasts: runaway child brides, pariah prostitutes, cast-off wives, victims of rape. In the streets and markets, she hears the Afghan view of the supposed benefits brought by the fall of the Taliban, and learns that regarding women as less than human is the norm, not the aberration of one conspicuously repressive regime. Jones confronts the ways in which Afghan education, culture, and politics have repeatedly been hijacked—by Communists, Islamic fundamentalists, and the Western free marketeers—always with disastrous results. And she reveals, through small events, the big disjunctions: between U.S promises and performance, between the new "democracy" and the still-entrenched warlords, between what's boasted of and what is. At once angry, profound, and starkly beautiful, Kabul in Winter brings alive the people and day-to-day life of a place whose future depends so much upon our own.

They are built to exploit the barest physical and psychological edge over equally skilled rivals, all of whom are fighting for the last one tenth of a second that separates triumph from despair. Now at thirty-two, the women are facing their last and biggest race: the 2012 Olympics. Each wants desperately to win gold, and each has more than a medal to lose. Kate is the more naturally gifted, but the demands of her life have a tendency to slow her down. Her eight-year-old daughter Sophie dreams of the Death Star and of battling alongside the Rebels as evil white blood cells ravage her personal galaxy—she is fighting a recurrence of the leukemia that nearly killed her three years ago. Sophie doesn’t want to stand in the way of her mum’s Olympic dreams, but each day the dark forces of the universe seem to be massing against her. Devoted and self-sacrificing Kate knows her daughter is fragile, but at the height of her last frenzied months of training, might she be blind to the most terrible prognosis? Intense, aloof Zoe has always hovered on the periphery of real human companionship, and her compulsive need to win at any cost has more than once threatened her friendship with Kate—and her own sanity. Will she allow her obsession, and the advantage she has over a harried, anguished mother, to sever the bond they have shared for more than a decade? Echoing the adrenaline-fueled rush of a race around the Velodrome track, Gold is a triumph of superbly paced, heart-in-throat storytelling. With great humanity and glorious prose, Chris Cleave examines the values that lie at the heart of our most intimate relationships, and the choices we make when lives are at stake and everything is on the line.

Book excerpt: When Cook's newborn baby entered the world, he had nothing but hope for its future. However, it was immediately clear that this was no ordinary child-it's murderous screams seemed a dark portent. As it grew, things only got worse, and the child's mother began to despair. The new parents hoped their child would grow out of it, but soon came to realise that its inauspicious beginnings were only a sign of things to come. Herbert George Wells (1866 - 1946) was a prolific English writer who wrote in a variety of genres, including the novel, politics, history, and social commentary. Today, he is perhaps best remembered for his contributions to the science fiction genre thanks to such novels as "The Time Machine" (1895), "The Invisible Man" (1897), and "The War of the Worlds" (1898). "The Father of Science Fiction" was also a staunch socialist, and his later works are increasingly political and didactic. Many vintage books such as this are becoming increasingly scarce and expensive. We are republishing this book now in an affordable, modern, high-quality edition complete with a specially commissioned new biography of the author.
