Make him ache for you: the most erotic way to electrify your man is with a slow, subtle seduction. Master these six pulse-pounding moves that no guy can possibly resist. (Lust Lessons).

* If you throw him on the bed, touch his crotch, and suck on his earlobe, just about any man with a pulse will go from 0 to 80 on the lust-o-meter in two minutes flat. But when it comes to driving a guy stark raving mad with desire for you, "less is usually more," says Joan Lloyd, author of If It Feels Good. Even the slightest carnal cues--a sultry look, an off-the-cuff remark--are like lighting a match to his libido. "Keeping his lust on a slow burn with these sexy little gestures is a way of teasing him, reminding him how hot you are," says Lloyd. "The less obvious you are about your intentions, the more his erotic anticipation builds ... until he absolutely has to have you." Here are six temperature-raising tactics guaranteed to amp him up--without your even laying a hand on him.

gaze his way

A simple tactic to mesmerize your man: Look at him and lock eyes for a second, look away, and then let your eyes slooowly wander back to his with a you-know-what-I'm-thinking smile. "This eye maneuver conveys mystery and innocence," explains Leil Lowndes, author of How to Be a People Magnet. "When you come off as innocent, it makes a guy go into hot pursuit. He assumes that if you're too shy to reveal your secrets, they must be really sexy, and it's up to him to make the next move if he's ever going to find out what they are."

The best time to lay this Lolitalike look on him is when he can't come right out and ask what's on your dirty little mind--during dinner with your parents, for example. He'll get so fired up fantasizing about what sexy scheme you have cooking, he might start blowing steam.

toss out double entendres

When it comes to the art of seduction, a little lusty lingo can go a long way, as Kasey **, 26, discovered. "My guy and I were having a hard time agreeing on a movie to rent at the video store, so I tried to lure him over to my side--and have fun with him--by making sexy comments about each title. Like when I pulled out The Sweetest Thing, I told him that I'd give him a sweet treat later. He got so turned on by my sexy wordplay, he said screw the movie and took me home, and we spent the rest of the night in bed."

"Double entendres and frisky phrases pump up his lust by showing off your playful, creative side and hinting that you'll be that way between the sheets," says Lowndes. Suggestive speech also gets him wondering if you mean what you say Once he realizes that you intend to back up your bawdy banter, he'll find plenty of other ways for you to use your mouth.
