Called “the Devil’s music,” the stories of the blues goes beyond jump turns, slow drag ditties, reel, jigs, minstrel songs, ragtime, or the buzzard lope. These lyrics connected to these stories celebrate heartache, separation, distrust, betrayal, lust, but they promise a healing love of revival and renewal.

These selected stories, contemporary retellings of some of the most familiar blues themes, are inspired from the recorded gems of the Delta blues, Chicago blues, Memphis blues and Texas blues. The themes cover every facet of sexual abandon, betrayal, and obsession: the virile man, the willing woman, and the needs, impulses, cravings and urges of the sensual mating dance.

These tales of sex and sensuality mirror the power and sweep of the blues. They say we are people who are constantly under the influence of our urges, needs, impulses and desires.

New Release: Sappho’s Sisters by Berengaria Brown

Sappho’s Sisters

By Berengaria Brown

Logical-Lust Publications eBook

2 January 2011/ $1.99/ ISBN: 978-1-905091-84-3

©Berengaria Brown 2011

Lady Eustacia Lumley is the only child of the Earl of Wentworth. It is her duty to marry well and ensure the succession.

Margaret Durrell is the fourth daughter of a gently born, but near penniless vicar. She has no option but to marry a man who can provide for her and possibly for some of her sisters as well.

Best friends since their days at Miss Marcomb’s Academy for Young Ladies, both young women are very interested in Sappho’s poetry and ideas. One evening while visiting the Wentworth estate, Margaret has a headache and Eustacia offers to massage her scalp. This act of kindness leads them into an encounter they both find very enjoyable.

The two young women fall deeply in love, but is there any hope for them? Or will they both have to conform to the rigid rules of Regency society?

Logical-Lust’s senior editor Rachel McIntyre says, “Berengaria Brown has written a charming yet titillating Regency Sapphic love story that will make you smile while you’re fanning yourself and seeking respite on the nearest fainting couch. Sappho’s Sisters is a playful, erotic tale about two bosom bows discovering the depth of their love for each other in an era when well bred young ladies were expected to marry well, not follow their passion.”

About the Author

With nearly a decade of writing experience that includes three published nonfiction books, erotic contemporary ménage, and other lesbian historical fiction, when Berengaria is not writing, she is reading. “I love reading romance and mysteries, particularly erotic romance. I read at least two books each week.”

Sappho’s Sisters is available in several ebook formats and can found at www.amazon.com, www.barnesandnoble.com, www.allromanceebooks.com, as well as many other ebook retailers.

New Release: “Land of a Thousand Dances” – a modern-day lesbian fairytale

Logical-Lust Publications today announces their latest ebook title Land of a Thousand Dances,  a short story by Australian author Evelyn Applegate.

Land of a Thousand Dances is a modern-day lesbian fairy tale about a librarian hooking up with a mysterious stranger in a bar and getting much more than she bargained for…and enjoying every moment.

Shy librarian Robbie has no time for romance and even less time for her pushy flatmate Adam who constantly tries to get into her pants. Everything changes when she meets Finna, a mysterious young woman with a dark secret. The two women strike up a conversation. What starts out as a night of girly chat and bad movies turns into something more intimate, dangerous, and far stranger than Robbie could have imagined.

Logical-Lust’s senior editor Rachel McIntyre says,

“Evelyn Applegate weaves a tantalizingly fantastical lesbian tale that will make you smile and squirm with pleasure.”

Evelyn Applegate writes romance and erotic fiction. She lives in Brisbane, Australia, with two cats, Heinrich and Butternut, and a ridiculous number of shoes. Her veins frequently contain more coffee than blood. Visit her blog here:

Land of a Thousand Dances is available in several ebook formats and can found at www.amazon.com, www.allromanceebooks.com, and many other ebook retailers.

Spank! – the latest release from Logical-Lust Publications

Logical-Lust Publications announces their latest anthology Spank! edited by noted erotica author and editor D. L. King.

Spank! is a collection of twenty erotic tales about the most intimate of corporal punishments—spanking. Some of the best authors of erotic stories have contributed to the anthology. Famous New York City disciplinarian and corporal consultant Ms. Cassandra Park provides the introduction to the anthology aptly titled “It’s a spanking – it’s supposed to hurt!”

As King says, “Spank! is quality fantasy fodder from the adorably sexy cover to the engaging, clever, smutty, funny, spanking-good erotica you’ll find inside, all the way to the adorably sexy back cover (if you purchase a print edition).  How could I go wrong with the likes of Lisabet Sarai, Kathleen Bradean, Donna George Storey, A.D.R. Forte, Cervo, Anna Black, Sean Meriwether, Beth Wylde, Sacchi Green, J. Z. Sharpe, Jessica Lennox, Allison Wonderland, Jean Roberta, Lee Ash, Maggie Morton, Tara S. Nichols, Sommer Marsden, Roxy Katt, and Evan Mora?”

D. L. King is the editor of the Lambda Literary Award Finalist, Where the Girls Are.  Violet Blue gave King’s bestselling vampire anthology, The Sweetest Kiss, the number two position in her top ten Hottest Sex Books of 2009.

Spank! is available in print and several ebook formats and can found at www.amazon.com, www.barnesandnoble.com, www.allromanceebooks.com, as well as many other print and ebook retailers. A blog tour featuring the contributors is in progress.  See D. L. King’s blog for the full tour schedule.
