Is that Cupid I spy or just another adult baby whistling his way to heaven? Last year has come and gone, leaving a trail of broken hearts, bullet holes and an endless sea of timeshare options, credit card payments and express checkouts. Do we care? No, we're only taking the piss. It's Valentine's Day and that means two things: even saints support the sex trade and we've got another batch of Hardcore Valentines!

This year we bring you to-the-point-pocketbook-lube-tussle-in-a-broom-closet excitement with our special Quickie editions, thereby proving that extreme depravity can always be squeezed in somewhere between yoga and brunch. And for those of you with friends...of the less adventurous sort, we hope you enjoy our Softcore collection. Who knows, it might get them hooked on the cheap thrill of cheaper sex.

As they say, 'He who wanks alone wanks the longest.'

Love and loathing,
Les moderateurs de HP_Hardcore,
Nina Pottermemoirs and Evelyn Ransom
