Explorations: Books 1-5

By Emily Tilton

These first five books of Emily Tilton's Explorations series together tell the whole story of Emily's wedding night, as she had never let herself imagine it, a long, thrillingly dark ordeal of dominance and submission, of spanking, of ravishment and overcome reluctance. In them, Emily Tilton slowly but surely also develops an arresting authorial voice, directing the fantasy and commenting upon it, and drawing the reader into a captivating conversation about negotiation and love, about trust and affection, and most of all about the fantasies that shame and excite us. Emily brings us not only into her dark fantasies but also, little by little, into her realities, and ceaselessly explores the relationship between the two. Discover a unique new voice in BDSM with these five books for the price of four!

Emily Tilton

Emily Tilton wishes she were as free as her characters (one of whom shares Emily's name) to live out her fantasies of submission.Emily's erotica is a narrative version of her nearly lifelong quest to reconcile her submissive erotic orientation with her ethics. She writes erotica, not erotic romance: her books are about sex, because writing about sex helps her understand that fundamental part of her life better. She hopes maybe it does the same for her readers.Over the many years since Emily became aware of her sometimes unbearable craving for ravishment, spanking, and above all anal domination, she has tried to come to terms with that craving in more ways than she can count. The first of the ways was by reading, voraciously, every piece of good BDSM erotica (and of course also a ton of bad BDSM erotica) she could find.Eventually, she read Story of O. As is reflected throughout her work, it changed her life, though the change has been gradual, and continues to this day. The idea that other women might share the lusts she has by turns been ashamed of and defiantly proud of, that a woman like the real Pauline Réage might write so beautifully of those lusts, and work them out so thoroughly and even pitilessly on a character, put Réage's famous pencil in her right hand. Or, to put it in the terms of EXPLORATIONS, which she considers her magnum opus, it put her left hand on the keyboard of her laptop and her right hand in her lap, if you know what she means. Emily started to write spanking stories.
