The
Painted Lady is one sexy story and that is not because of the sex.
Overall, The Painted Lady still receives my stamp of approval.

one of these stories is just delicious. Treat yourself to a book full of
satisfying enticement; characters that care emotionally, real relationships and
steamy sex. Very, very nice reading and should go right on your ToBeBought list.

Excerpt
Chapter
One
Tiny
brushes moved softly across her skin. It was almost too erotic for her to
handle. However, Saff was not complaining, this was a job and one that was
paying better than good. All that was required was to have her body used as a
canvas.
The
gentle and steady hand of a masterful artist had been doling out the torture
using their weapon of choice, a series of brushes. Fine, sable-haired brushes
that moved sinuously across her face and ears, gently over and around her
breasts and nipples, stroked down her stomach and pussy mound, even along her
bare, plump lips. The final strokes were usually tickling the special makeup
along her legs, feet, and toes.
This was
the thirty-first and final illusion that had been specifically commissioned by
some unknown patron. Once the photos had all been taken, the patron, along with
the photographer’s expertise, would choose the best images and then send it to
a bookbinder who handcrafted beautiful books. It was for a private collection
only. Saffron was the model/canvas and when offered the post, she worried for a
moment about some strange person possessing nude pictures of her, then realized
it would be difficult to know it was her hidden beneath the paint, so left that
worry behind.
Joanne
Gardner, the artist/body painter, was one of the top in the field. Bruce Wester,
the photographer, also top in his field, was noted for the raw sexuality with a
sensual ambience to his pictures. There was also a team of assistants for each
and they had all been working on this project for almost a month straight,
including weekends. The team was top notch as would be the final product.
No one
ever heard Saff complain about her choice of profession. Model work was not that
difficult, but was frequently trying on the nerves. However, that no longer
mattered, this was her last job, she was no longer cut out for this career. As a
tall gangly prematurely busty girl-child, the industry loved her and she found
it easy money. But the woman she became disliked hearing the, “Saffron,
you’re gaining weight, loose at least fifteen pounds if you want to work.”
By no means was she a beauty, but what she did have going for her was great
facial bones that showed well with makeup and a tall, long-legged frame with
large breasts that showed clothes to great advantage. The new waifish body trend
was just not for her so, she was taking this last job and heading for a less
public life.
