Isn’t this image amazing????

It’s the last week of May which means next week we’ll have a new Mmm Maker in the spotlight. But until then, take some time to go and visit with The Barefoot Sub, this months lip-licking inspirator.

The Barefoot Sub hails from the UK and runs the personal blog aleapoffaith.uk where you’ll find lively product reviews (like this one from last week), rich images and personal anecdotes about her life as a submissive and all-around kinkster. The Barefoot Sub can also be found on Instagram and Twitter. Do go see what she has to say. You’ll not be disappointed.

To see what makes The Barefoot Sub say Mmm, check this out!

Past Mmm Makers can be found here.

Darkfever is a paranormal romance based in Ireland that will hit all your pleasure spots!

MacKayla (Mac) Lane is an average Southern (American) girl, complete with sparkly nail polish and glossy lips. When her sister is murdered in Dublin, she makes the trip, hoping to find her sister’s killer. Instead she finds a world she never would have imagined, one where sparkles have no right being on display.

Between Dark Fae trying to seduce her at every turn and a world filled with beings of unsavory intent, Mac must navigate carefully or meet her sisters fate.

When she runs into Jericho (literally), she’s unsure if he’s her savior or her worst enemy. Maybe he’s both…

A whirlwind of a ride. This series boasts 6 full length novels, each more engrossing than the last.
