Released just in time for St. Valentine’s Day, the sizzling and emotional rollercoaster will resonate with viewers on the most romantic day of the year.
Adult stars Jessica Ryan and Will Pounder proudly announce special a Valentine’s Day release directed by Anna Lee for women-led erotica brand, afterglow. Arousal explores the passionate and complex journey of a couple’s love in a committed relationship.
The racy and romantic project is as much an acting piece for its charismatic leads as it is an adult movie, with Ryan and Pounder working to keep things spicy as they navigate the ups and downs of intimacy in a LTR while working from home.
“Will and Jessica brought not only amazing chemistry for the sex scenes but also emotional depth to the plot and storyline of this cinematic and romantic film,” Lilly Sparks, afterglow Founder & CEO, said in a statement..
Ryan added, ”Shooting Arousal was an unforgettable journey in my career, as Anna Lee had coached me through an emotional script, something that I don’t normally get to indulge in on an adult film set. It’s been years since I have had to properly act out ‘upset’ and shed tears, or given the space to emote that dynamic.”
“Also, co-starring with Will Pounder is always a good day on set, but especially this one as I couldn’t have asked for a better male partner in this storyline.”
Pounder was equally impressed with his shoot experience, and overjoyed with Ryan’s casting. “I had been anxiously waiting for Arousal to be released because Jessica is so gorgeous and really a terrific person, but also it’s so much easier to be ‘authentically convincing’ and not ‘false’ in your acting when the person whom you’re working with has Jessica’s chops and dedication.”
“I think Arousal will resonate with audiences on multiple levels, and I feel very fortunate that Anna cast me with Jessica.”
Arousal is a satisfying Valentine’s Day treat for couples and singles alike. View the trailer here ( https://afterglow.ubpages.com/

About Jessica Ryan:
Raised on comic books, the fear of teenage pregnancy etched into her psyche — along with the dubious, paradoxical promise of fortune and home ownership via crippling student debt —Jessica Ryan migrated to California in search of the American Dream, and sex with partners who knew what they were doing.
The elegant embodiment of the “Millennial Glamour Girl”, with bright blue eyes, a killer figure, an obvious love of sex, and a sultry, throaty dialogue delivery evoking silver screen Femmes Fatales, she exploded onto the porn scene in 2012 and quickly found herself in high demand.
Ryan took a three-year break from filming to finish her bachelors in Kinesiology to get into physical therapy, but had poor timing, in the form of a break up and the COVID pandemic. Missing the sexual expression of performing on camera, she returned to the World of X with clear-eyed career focus in 2021.
Jessica Ryan resides in Los Angeles.

“I must say I’m incredibly grateful,” Pounder remarked. “I’m just a guy from a small town trying to make it in a grown man’s world. I feel like I’m living in a dream working with such beautiful women. Is this even real?”
