Everyone knows this famous sculpture. Many years ago we had a large Rodin album at our home in Moscow, Russia. The sensual beauty of his art fascinated me since I were a schoolgirl.  This sculpture and the Eternal Idol below are my longtime favorites.

As Valentine’s Day draws close, many of us who are married or have a steady partner reflect on our love relationships. Often we realize that our busy routines, jobs and families have pushed the magic of intimacy to the back burner.

Valentine’s Day shakes us awake and reminds us that the romance and sex are still here, although we might need to scrub off the grey patina of daily life to make them glow.

Recently I have re-read a wonderful erotic story by Daria Rose, At the Last Minute, published on her blog. It is free for everyone over 18 to enjoy.

In this story, Bree and Gavin, a solidly married couple whose lives are taken up by their children and jobs, manage to carve out four days all to themselves in their empty home, no work and no kids. It takes them some cunning and cheating to pull it off, but it is well worth the reward.

Daria Rose’s narrative carries you like a slow river on a summer day, enthralling your imagination and never tiring. We follow the couple as they enjoy their feast of sex and intimacy, employ small tricks to make everyone think they are out of town and relish the indulgent relaxation of their break from everyone and everything else. The sex scenes run the gamut from gentle and loving to forceful and passionate, and none of them would leave you bored.

You can find the story published in five installments here:

Day One
Day Two
Day Two Continued
Day Three
Day Four

My rating: Five lilies out of five.
