A review of the book Snowfall by Benson E. Wolf

Snowfall is an erotic book by Benson E. Wolf. It explores the getting together and relationship between Miranda and Cyrus; a younger woman, older man, daddy dom relationship. Here is the description from Amazon:

Miranda doesn’t normally submit to letting life happen to her—so she’s going to chase after what she wants.

And she wants Cyrus.

Smart, sexy, and not afraid to change her life’s course, Miranda is a stunning self-made 24-year-old who left Las Vegas for a career outside of Boston, Massachusetts. However, she didn’t plan on reliving the thirst of the Nevada desert when she met her neighbor, the rugged, assertive, but caring Cyrus McManus. She only knows that she needs him to quench that thirst…

Miranda’s not looking for love—so submitting herself to a no strings attached arrangement with the dominate New Englander is fine with her… until she wants his strings.

After almost a decade, widower Cyrus McManus continues to struggle with the emotional aftermath of his wife’s death. Focusing his life as the father of teenage twins, he is content with the occasional fleeting one-night stand. The bearded author has closed himself off from the hope of romance forever—or so he thinks. Will he be the proper father figure who takes Miranda in hand or will he give her a new meaning of daddy issues?

Their lives become hopelessly entangled and what starts as a steamy physical agreement quickly becomes more. But they might have bigger issues than a relationship struggle as skeletons come out of both closets wanting to dance with their demons…
 
This paperback issue has all 5 Parts of Snowfall, Freeze Watch, Hoarfrost, Polar Vortex, Bomb Cyclone, and Apricity.

This is a review of the paperback from an ARC – advanced reader copy.

A Daddy Dom story with some depth and twists. If you like Daddy Doms and BDSM with character and plot this is a book for you. I was not as thrilled as I’m not heavily into reading those. The story is mostly good though even if you aren’t.  Some of the character’s characteristics or actions I personally wasn’t a fan of but that was more of a personal taste than anything to do with the writing. I’d give it a B-. Nice to see some long form erotica that doesn’t mind telling a tale and exploring characters.

Season’s Greetings (My Gift to You)

The season for giving, a gift to you, freely I give
Upon thy brow from deep within.
A crown, not of thorns, but of pearls around your neck
Glistening in the moonlight and snow. Wet, like dew,
Though drying; the remnants of rivers
Become trails that only snails follow.
Coaxed by thy lips, drawn by thy breath, teased by your tongue
Until I am blown; both mind and body.
Jingled ornaments, jewels of family pride, hung beneath wooden pine. 
Open this package, a present for a celebrated night.
Take it in your hand, shake it, hold it up to your eye to spy what is inside.
Explosion of joy, tis the season; a gift I give to you.
Freely, upon this silent night.

One Hole

One Hole


One hole to make mine
To do what I wished 
She looked up at me
A smile on her bright red lips
Naked, curled on the bed
A kitten, cream on her whiskers.
Smiling, Cheshire.

She arched an eyebrow.
The question in her eyes,
If not on her lips.
Which hole
Do you desire?
Which plaything would I make mine?

Eyes dark, grin just evil
Mischief, the fire inside.
Dare I poke the flame?
Would I venture into the bowels of hell
For this treasure?
Of course,
A jewel worthy of much more
Than a little burn 
Or scorched earth

The question was not one of worth
But of treasure chosen:

A damp delight
Warm and tight
Made to milk the mightiest of man
Leave him drained 
And raise again

A back door entrance
So tempting yet so divine
Dirty secrets sold outright
Oh so tight
Lick around and dip it in
Find the depths 
Of your original sin

The origin of smiles
Lips that hide teeth
Words sharp but oh so sweet
A tongue to taste
Or swallow you whole
All the while 
Her grin behold.

I stand before her
Fully displayed
And choose this day 
Which path I will take
Open wide darling
Your mouth is mine
Time to tell me 
How divine
How sweet
My cock feels
When it slides past your lips
And down your throat.

Your eyes open wide
A smile upon your lips
You open wide
Cum inside
You say with eyes and lips

I bring it forth
Long and with girth
Your tongue it extends 
For a taste
Around it swirl
That’s my Good Girl
Lick my honey drips

You reach to grab
I slap your hand
Ah, Ah, Ah.
I chastise.
This one hole
I’ll take it whole
Without your assistance
Or regrets

I slide inside
Along your tongue I glide
Deeper and deeper
Inch by inch
To your throat
I now invoke
My rod of dominance.

Pass teeth and gums
Into my little hole
And down into your depths
Breath in through your nose
You know how it goes
This ain’t your first rodeo.

Deeper still I go
Oh you love it so
Though your eyes 
Do become wet
You look up in love
Daddy give me more
And who am I
but to consent.

You take me all
All the way to my balls
They rest upon your chin.
That’s as far as he goes
My groin to your nose.
Full steam ahead gals!
Tha’r she blows!

I reach out my hand
Slide it through your hair
Your eyes so dark
Yet still so fair
A look so sweet
Submissive on your knees
Given to me complete

Are you ready Pet?
Oh I just bet
A chuckle and a smile
Then I tighten my grip
Let us begin this trip
To turn this one hole
Into an entrance to your soul.

I pull back 
Your head and my cock
Wet and slick, it glows
Then back in again
Your head in my hand
A hard quick thrust
Balls slap again and again.

I’m going to fuck that mouth
Oh yes. Let it out
The moans, squeals and shouts
Love sounds
Fuck sounds
Surender to sounds
Of a hole that is mine.

Balls they slap
Your chin 
Tap, tap, tap
The snare drum 
To this blow job rock beat
Your slurp and choke
The lyrics of a song
Modern cacophony. 

Feel the ridges and head
The length of engorged flesh
Fills your mouth.
You take pleasure
In my moans and growls
My cries and my howls
Send pleasure to your 
Wet intimate parts

You suck in earnest now
Hungry for my power
Your panting not just for air
But of lust
Your hands on my knees
Daddy Please!
Give your baby girl that good juice.

Your hunger is at the max
Your hand between your legs
Passion matched
Fuck my mouth and cum!
You feel it burn
Full and throb and thrum
Please Daddy!
Please, give me some!

I howl in the air
Oh that hole 
I’ve filled 
Conquered
Made Mine
I now fill
My essence
Seed sown
From the top down.

“Here I cum!”
Your eyes roll back
Your hole open fully
Surrendered, given true

Explosion 
Fire
Emptied desire
Showered inside 
To drown you in sweet release

You’ve matched me
Met me
Your release before 
And plenty.

“You chose your hole.”
You smile
Lick your lips
“I have.”
“Yet I have not completed my claim.”
“Oh? I would have thought so.
You seem to be done for this game.”
“Ah my dear.  That was just to make clear
That the hole I claim is suitable.
For this my sweet 
Makes it complete.”
A kiss 
Simple, yet from the heart,
This is the hole
That sets all others apart.

Behind Closed Walls

A castle stone wall with a door
Something drops away
A tear, a tear, a rip of fabric unsewn
Leaving me open, vulnerable, alone
I shy away, withdraw
Into myself, my shell, my home
A castle, bridge drawn up,
Moat filled, arrows drawn

Stop!
Or I'll shoot!
Stop!
Or I'll cry!
Stop!
Or we'll die
All together, all apart, all the things
In my heart.
My heart screaming stop
Silently echoes.

Wander ghosts.
You spectral shades,
Of past, present, future
Mistakes I have/will/am made
Make and making.
Take my echo and play them back to me.

The drawbridge stays up
I invite you into my secret garden
I tell you truths
You decipher the words repeated 
I do not say.

Random Thought

Fat is Sexy

Image by mostafa meraji from Pixabay

Fat people are sexy.  I don’t know why there is still body shaming for fat people especially fat women when you look at porn sites and there is a specific category for fat people.  That means that even though people are saying that fat isn’t sexy when it comes to looking for sex they’re looking for fat people.  And yes I’m calling them fat.  Not BBW, not chubby, not big boned, FAT.  Ain’t nothing wrong with being fat. Now health issues are a whole other thing and having a big waist or not does not make one healthy or not, so I’m not addressing that here.  I’m talking aesthetics, outside appearance.  And I’m not skinny shaming anyone either.  Your kink is cool as long as it doesn’t harm another creature. And personally I love all sizes of women.  Just saying the fat shaming and negativity needs to stop.  There’s no reason for it and it’s not even that popular.  Fat people are sexy.

What do we do next?

My thoughts on the next steps to take to control COVID-19

So with vaccines available and with a majority of those who can get the vaccine with at least one dose, here in Canada.  And the 4th wave looks to be imminent. The question becomes what next?

I’m no doctor, or scientist or politician or … or … or …  I’m just a guy behind a keyboard with some thoughts.  So take everything here with that knowledge.  Hopefully a bit of common sense is seen throughout these thoughts but I can’t claim any special knowledge or insight.  What follows are my thoughts on what the next steps should be for dealing with COVID-19. 

  1. More vaccinations
  2. Vaccines in those places that don’t have them
  3. Let people die
  4. Back to more tracing, masks, social spacing, etc.
  5. Build more ICU and COVID beds/spaces

1. More vaccinations

We need to get more people vaccinated.  I think it will happen but we’ve definitely hit a plateau.  As more places require vaccinated status and more and more people see the effects of COVID for themselves I expect to see more vaccinations but I don’t expect another surge of people getting vaccines. 

2. Vaccines in those places that don’t have them

We need to get the vaccine to people who want the vaccine but don’t have it. This includes developing countries, underserved communities, children, etc.  If we leave out places where they don’t have access to the vaccine there is more opportunity for the virus to mutate and for those infected to re-infect those who have been vaccinated. 

3. Let people die

People aren’t going to say it, so I will.  Some people are not going to make it.  That is going to have to factor in.  There is going to be a prioritization. It already happens.  People with access to treatment through money or access because of location are prioritized.  Those who are more likely to recover are prioritized.  Whether it is direct or implicit, prioritization happens. We need to be prepared that we are going to have to let some people die.  People are already dying.  It’s a fact. Let’s face it. 

4. Back to more tracing, masks, social spacing, etc.

I know it has been politicized and people are tired of it but masks work to slow the spread and they’re here to stay for a while.  There needs to be a going back to mask mandates.  Masks work best in protecting other people from the wearer.  Basically it traps more of the germs and droplets from the wearer so they don’t spread.  Knowing that even vaccinated people can spread COVID, it  just makes too much sense not to reinstate and continue mask mandates.  What needs to be brought back and beefed up as well is contact tracing.  This was never utilized to the best of its ability.  Alerting those who have been in contact with those who have COVID will let them get tested, more on that in a bit, and to isolate. Knowing the areas where there are flare ups will also help in setting up and preparing hospitals and ICU units in those areas.  Testing also needs to be ramped backed up and become more efficient. We now have home tests and rapid tests though they can have accuracy issues, they’re still pretty good but as more and more people move about there is going to be an increase in the need for testing and fast, easy, accurate tests.  This has fallen off a bit but let’s not be lax in our innovation with testing.  They can be faster, easier and more accurate than the baseline that we have now.  The jump isn’t that far so let’s get to it.

5. Build more ICU and COVID beds/spaces

This hasn’t been discussed enough in my opinion.  One of the major reasons for shutting down states and many of the measures that governments are taking is being justified by the need to save room in hospitals and specifically ICU departments.  Well one way to alleviate that is to decrease the number of patients, which we’re doing and trying but another is to increase the number of spaces, which we’re not, that I’ve seen or heard of. 

Now I know that when people think of creating more beds and room for ICU and COVID patients they think of more hospital rooms and that would be a big expense and take time.  And to be honest that is an option and one that should be looked at.  Let’s increase smart funding for hospitals and health care including increased ICU and hospital rooms. But that is not the only option when it comes to increased beds.  I think most of us have seen the pictures of hospitals putting up tents and beds in parking lots or other extreme measures like that.  Why not put up some temporary beds, modular type in nearby malls with empty space?  We’ve all heard about how malls are struggling, and have seen it where the large department stores have left and stand empty.  They are located at easy access places, plenty of parking and when people see COVID patients in their neighborhood as they shop maybe it will wake some up to how real this is.  It can be done.  Rent out the space.  Multiple wins.

Also training for nurses and doctors.  Yes, a long term solution but they’re needed.  We’re losing people at an alarming rate.  Tuition help, reimbursements, loan forgiveness, academic help, immigrants. All of it.  Also, there can be something done to help alleviate the burden they have and provide more jobs. Assistant to assistant nurses or something.  Something entry level, low skill, easily and quickly trainable.  Even if all they do is pick up charts and empty bedpans.  It takes a bit off the nurses and doctors and could help for the off-site COVID rooms.  And what about when the need isn’t as great?  The levels aren’t as swollen?  Training.  Have them cover for nurses as they get more training.  Train them for higher up nursing roles.  Cross train them so they can cover different areas.  The point is to have trained personnel available.  More is better than less in this case. 

Another thing I’d like to see is more talk about treating COVID specifically as a viral infection before it becomes serious.  Because it is a virus it is up to the body to fight it off, which is why vaccines are so effective.  They get the body ready for the virus and to recognize that it is something the body needs to fight and having had the experience of beating it so it can attack the virus early and with it’s best fighting.  So the best you can do with a viral infection is to have had a vaccine, have a hearty immunization system, rest and time.  However, we can treat symptoms.  So, more COVID related symptom relievers would be good.  I”m sure there is plenty already out there they just need to add COVID on the box and a little dosage remixes and warnings.  This may seem counterintuitive as the goal is to get more people getting vaccinated rather than trying to “fight” the virus without.  But my thinking is that if people have a symptom reliever and that is not working they’ll know they have a more serious problem that should be looked at and hopefully won’t show up in emergency rooms in more desperate shape.   Also, the hope is that it will encourage more people to get tested so they know which symptom reliever to get. Also, say for those who are vaccinated with milder symptoms they get some symptom relief. Hey, it’s rather weak but at this point weak is better than nothing.  It’s something we can do, now that vaccines are here and we’re going to have to learn to live with COVID being around for a while.

So those are my thoughts on what should be done next.  Which, if any, of these things will happen I don’t know.  How they would happen would require political will, policies and money.  Also, a desire and acceptance from the population.  I personally don’t think COVID is something that we’ll be done with in a year or even two.  I also don’t see it as a permanent part of our future.  What happens next will be a stepping stone, hopefully upwards, to a future in which we can go about our daily lives without the worry of contracting the virus with deadly or serious illness for a large part of the population.
