Erotic book review: Ocean Breeze, Little Squeeze by Jenna Byrnes

Continue Reading...

Flame Level-How much heat is generated in the books I review

Sexual Heat Level. Some books are hot and some are not.

5 Flames - This means the sex is hot, hotter than hot, so hot in fact, the book should never be left out in the open. Explicit, very detailed oriented, no holds barred. Can be m/f or m/m or multiples, can have a lot of BDSM, but may not. In other words, be prepared to be sexified. Sex scenes = more than three.

4 Flames- The sex is very hot. Explicit. Can have some BDSM, but may not. Can be m/f or m/m or multiple partners. Watch out for this one, still hot but to a lesser degree. Still prepare to blush. Sex scenes = more than three.

3 Flames- Sex is still hot. Explicit. Can have some BDSM elements, but may not. Possibly multiple partners, but probably m/f or m/m. Still hot, but less than the two above. Sex scenes = two or more.

2 Flames- Sex is hot, but beginning to border on vanilla/sensual. Explicit, but to a lesser degree. No multiple partners, only m/f or m/m. One to two sex scenes in the book.

1 Flame- Sex is more sensual and is vanilla. No BDSM elements. Sex is detailed, but not as explicit. May have only one full sexual encounter, but may have more of a build to big score. Only m/f or m/m no multiple partners.

Some embarrasing moments at work


I love blogging. It allows a person to truly express themselves like a personal diary except anyone could read it. Today I was talking to my friend about things in general when I told her about two embarrassing moments that happened to me while at work. I just started laughing all over again just thinking about my situations and I tell you they are hilarious.


First I will start off as these happened. It was the late 90’s and I was a glorified telemarketer and I would sometimes where wigs. Well the room I was in held about eight people plus the CEO in his office to keep an eye on us. We would sometimes talk in between making calls and someone said something that was extremely funny and as I tend to do I laugh with my whole body and I tilted my head back forgetting I had on a wig, which was not secured by the way. Before you knew it the wig flew off and the real laughter began.


For almost two minutes after it jumped off my head, all I could do was leave it on the ground as we were just laffing too hard. They would look at my head, which was covered in a stocking cap, to the braided monstrosity on the floor and start all over again. I think that whole room, CEO included, were on a laugh fest for fifteen minutes straight.


The next incident only involved me and one other co-worker. Was also a different job. This was probably around 2005-2006. Now this incident will forever be etched in my memory. I was at my cubicle and the girl next to me was in hers working. I had to plug my radio in to the socket, so I got on my knees first, then bent over. Then that is when it happened. A blast, and not from the past. I immediately shot up and looked behind me. The girl had this look on her face that was more like “did I or didn’t I?” Seeing the look I said “excuse me” and that was the magic phrase. We both fell out and laughed for thirty minutes straight no lie. The more we thought about it the harder we laughed and I mean hard, you know where you are coughing?


So these are two moments in my life where embarrassing things happened to me. I am still laughing to myself at the moments. Ah memories.


Do you have any embarrassing moments in your life that still make you laugh today? I so want to know!

Customers: Evil is thy name!


Customer service. Ah to see it or hear it, brings forth either good memories or bad memories for the customer. But what about the service rep who has a bad experience with a customer? No one ever wants to talk about the service rep’s bad experience, oh no they do not.

Well I wrote a sarcastic funny blog post (part 1 and part 2) on how a person should act towards their customer service rep. But just last week I realized that people are selfish and bitter with themselves and treating others in a horrible fashion is their way to feel good.

I am very good at my job. Too good and I am not bragging, but it makes it hard for me to move on into a different position. To make extra money I will also be the emergency on-call person. Basically I have a computer and a phone and at a moments notice I can receive any kind of emergency call at any time. Example would be a flood or leak or something water related.

Well on last week I had a call from a couple of horrible people who were nasty and evil. It was in regards to no hot water. They still had water. Just not hot water. I’m going to tell you right now I have never, ever been as angry as I was when I spoke to these people who just went off on me for basically doing my job, the same way I always do my job on a call such as these. I spoke to the wife who proceeded to tell me in a very condescending way how to do my job. Then in the background her husband was calling me an idiot and he was gleefully shouting how he was going to get me fired.

Now what kills me is that I totally had their information in front of me. What if I was like those people who lose it? Or I was crazy? Though sometimes I think I must be to stay in this business of servicing customers!

All joking aside it ended up being a horrible experience for me, as these people eventually got their hot water turned back on, but it was only off no more than thirty minutes to an hour yet they took it to the next level of stupidness. The thing is, that experience is with me and will stay with me as my truly horrible experience of a customer.

What about you? You ever had that crazy person who got all crazy for basically nothing? I surely want to know! Thanks!

Writing Challenges

As a writer I am always looking at ways to get motivated to write. Well today I found an interesting site that I think is going to help part of my 2010 goal. It is called http://sixsentences.blogspot.com/ where people submit a story in only six sentences. This is both hard and rewarding and I am excited to add my own writings to this interesting blog. It is micro stories that pack a punch and I am definitely excited by the prospect. So if you are looking for a challenge then you should try this site!

I will be submitting my own writings as they take anything. I will showcase both my erotic and memoir type writing to this blog. Also you should check out the intense and interesting writing on the site. Very good writing in such a short format.
