I made cakes in a lovely bakery for eight years, so when February rolls around I start thinking in terms of heart-shaped cakes covered in chocolate ganache, chocolate curls and raspberries. Does anyone else think raspberries look like nipples? Fat, pebbly red nipples – every time I see a raspberry, I see nipples. Fitting, hmm?

Since it’s the Month Of Luuuurve we are all supposed to buy Hallmark cards, go out on dates and have lots of sex, right? Well, okay. I mean, why not? It’s butt-cold outside, the dead of winter and there’s nothing else to do. You all know what I do to get in the mood for sex – I read erotic romance. (You should too. Buy mine!) And since I just finished the first round of edits on SoloPlay, the second book in the Come Again series, I also have sex toys on the brain. Naturally that led me into the local porn shop…

…where I found myself debating the relative merits of products X and Y with the sexy shop girl. Why does that always happen to me?

“Oh my God,” she said. “Have you tried this?” She led me over to the lubricant display and pointed out the tingly clit cream.

Now, I don’t know about you, but when a girl who actually works in a porn shop recommends a product, you bet your ass I’m going to try it. And I think you should too. In fact, they were trial-size and I bought an extra! So here’s the deal: comment on this blog before the 6th of February, and I will enter your name in a drawing for the tingly clit cream. Unites States only please, unless you know for certain it will cost me less than $6 to send it. I’ll announce the winner next Monday and send it Priority Mail, so the lucky lover will have it in time for Valentine’s Day weekend!

We can compare notes! Apparently, a little dab will do ya…
