Daddy Takes the Reins by Kelly Dawson

The prolific writer, Kelly Dawson, is back this week with her book Daddy Takes the Reins from Stormy Night Publications.

The protagonist of this novel is particularly close to Kelly’s heart because, like Bianca, Kelly has Tourette’s Syndrome. The experiences Bianca goes through due to her Tourette’s are similar in many ways to what Kelly has gone through herself.

Kelly lives on the South Island of New Zealand, with her husband, four kids, a dog and a cat.

Blurb:

When Bianca lands a job as an apprentice jockey at a racing stable, she is determined not to let her Tourette’s Syndrome interfere with her dream career, and does her best to conceal her occasional tics from her ridiculously handsome new boss. But Clay Lewis is not an easy man to fool. He soon discovers her secret, and when he casually mentions that she ought to be spanked for her deception it sets Bianca’s heart racing like nothing ever has before.

Her crush on Clay grows stronger by the day, but while she strives to impress him at work Bianca struggles to deal with tragic circumstances in her own life. With her younger sister—and lifelong best friend—incapacitated by terminal cancer and becoming more dependent on her by the day, she finds herself pushing herself to the point of skipping meals and going without sleep.

Clay can see the toll that stress is taking on Bianca, and when she collapses from exhaustion at the stable he knows it is time for him to step in, but not as a boss or as a boyfriend. What she needs is a loving daddy who will both comfort her when she is sad and bare her bottom and spank her like a naughty little girl when she doesn’t take care of herself properly.

Bianca delights in the attention she receives from Clay, and when he takes her in his arms and claims her as his own it brings her more pleasure than she would have ever thought possible, but she cannot help wondering if he will stay by her side even when her tics are at their worst. Can she truly trust Clay enough to surrender her heart to him and let her daddy take the reins?

Publisher’s Note: Daddy Takes the Reins is an erotic romance novel that includes spankings, sexual scenes, age play, and more. If such material offends you, please don’t buy this book.

Excerpt:

She sat on the edge of the bath, resting against him, watching while he squirted shower gel into the running water to make suds. Despite still feeling so wobbly on her feet, so weak and dizzy, she smiled. How long had it been since she’d had a bubble bath? She couldn’t remember.

She didn’t protest when Clay undid the buttons on her shirt, gently easing it back off her shoulders. She didn’t complain when he slid her jodhpurs down her thighs, lifting up first one foot and then the other, to pull them off the ends of her feet. But she let out a startled cry when his soft hands returned to her back, to undo the fastenings on her bra.

“Let me take care of you,” he murmured, kissing her cheek. “You’re safe, I promise you. You wanted to be a little kid again, to have someone take care of you, to be claimed and punished. Well I’m claiming you. I’m taking care of you. I’ll be your daddy – you’ll be my little girl. I will take care of you.”

Too tired to argue, she smiled in agreement. Right now, that sounded like bliss.

She didn’t resist when Clay gently slid her bra forward down over her arms, freeing her breasts. And when he stood her up to slide her knickers down her legs, she cooperated with him, holding onto his shoulders for balance and lifting her feet one at a time so she could step out of them. Strangely, she wasn’t embarrassed when she stood there in front of him in all her naked glory, watching as his eyes roamed over her.

“You’re beautiful,” he whispered. Then he stood up. “In you get,” he commanded, helping her step over the side and lower herself down into the bubbles.

She leaned back and closed her eyes as the warm water washed over her, disappearing under the hot suds right up to her neck. She kept her eyes closed as Clay soaped up a washcloth and ran it over her skin, thoroughly cleaning her entire body, every single crevice, with a gentle, circular motion. She should be asking him to stop, she should be mortified at this man touching her, washing her most intimate places, but she wasn’t. She felt cared for and secure; she felt all her stress slipping away as the suds washed over her. She felt content.

“Lie back.” Clay pushed her head down into the water gently, running his fingers through her hair, wetting the strands from root to tip. She could feel the strength in his fingers as he massaged her scalp, kneading the shampoo over her head and through her hair. Thick lather ran down his wrists and into the water around her as he washed her hair, then he tilted her head back and rinsed it out expertly.

She smiled. When had anyone ever washed her hair? She hadn’t even set foot in a hair salon in years – Annie always trimmed her hair for her when it got too long. She’d never cared enough about her appearance to bother with professional haircuts. It seemed a bit pointless really, to pay a fortune for a flash hair-do when she looked ridiculous anyway by screwing up her face at random. Annie. How was she getting on? Was she all settled into her new home already? Now that she knew Rose’s immediate future was secure, she’d been intending to go and visit Annie, maybe take her out for lunch. She sat up.

“I need to go; I have to go see Annie.”

Clay shook his head. “You’re not going anywhere – you’re exhausted. You need a sleep. After you’ve had a nap, I’ll drive you there myself, I promise.”

“I need to see her,” she whined. “You don’t understand,” she pleaded.

Clay put a finger to her lips, shushing her. “You will see her, but you need a nap first. You’ve been running yourself ragged, stressing yourself out to the point of collapse.” He looked at his watch. “It’s only 11 o’clock. Ordinarily, you’d still be working now. You can sleep until 2pm, then we’ll go visit her. Deal? I’ll get your shift covered for this afternoon so you can spend the entire evening with her.”

She nodded. That sounded fair.

“I’m glad you agreed to that, little girl,” he told her, and winked. Then his voice took on a stern tone. “Because when little girls are naughty, they go across their daddy’s knee, their pants get pulled down, and their bottoms get smacked. It would be most unfortunate if you found yourself in that position now, wouldn’t it?” He winked again. “A spanking hurts so much more on wet skin.

His Little Lapis by Renee Rose

I’m so excited to have the brilliant Renee Rose back on my blog today. This wonderful, bestselling author writes some of the best erotic fiction around.

This week we’re looking at her book His Little Lapis which is part of the steaming hot  Red Petticoat Saloon collection from Blushing Books.

Genre:  D/S, Age Play, Western Spanking Romance

Blurb:

All she ever wanted was a stern man to call Daddy...

Once a respectable young governess, Louise Small tumbled from society’s grace after her employer forced himself on her. She wound up at The Red Petticoat playing Little Lapis Lazuli, a submissive who dresses like a girl and offers her bottom up for frequent spankings.

She enjoys her new identity, so far removed from the prim governess she’d been, but she longs for a real daddy—one who is kind and caring, yet willing to administer real discipline. When she spies Culpepper Cove's Mayor interacting with his young niece, she knows he's just the sort of man she wants. But his disdain for her and her profession put them in conflict.

Letting go of her little self, she reverts to the proper, fine-mannered governess to win his attention. But at what cost? Her little side squashed, she must give up hope of being taken in hand. Will being the Mayor's wife be enough?

Welcome to The Red Petticoat Saloon

USA Today and #1 Best-selling Authors bring you The Red Petticoat Saloon.

The Red Petticoat is not just another whorehouse. This is a place for every painted lady to get her happy ending. Madame Jewel and her 'gems' welcome hardworking men to come inside for a home-cooked meal or a few hands of cards. They are invited to listen to a pretty girl sing or watch a show. If a bit of intimate comfort is desired, they are welcome to go upstairs and into the arms of one of the beautiful women wearing the red petticoats. However, refer to its gems as whores and you'll find yourself tossed out into the street.

Join these talented authors as they weave the tales of The Red Petticoat and all of Madame Jewel's precious—but slightly flawed—gems.

Excerpt from His Little Lapis:

She sucked in her lower lip and slowly rotated, giving him a view of her youthful body. She still bore the marks from the bastard Friedrichson. He wished once again he’d broken the man’s nose. Or shoved his boot so far up his ass it came out his throat.

By the time she arrived back front, his cock was rock hard and throbbing. But how and where would he take her? He didn’t want to wake up Polly, but he wasn’t going to spend the rest of his married life going out to the woodshed to have sex, either. They’d have to learn to be quiet.

“Go and lie down on my bed—our bed.”

A trace of doubt crossed her face. He suspected she worried about waking Polly, too.

He grinned. The element of danger heightened his excitement to be with his new bride.

Ever obedient, she stooped to pick up her discarded clothes and disappeared into the bedroom on tiptoe.

He waited long enough to make her fret, then pushed the door open.

The sight of her robbed him of his breath. She lay on top of the bedspread, her pale curls fanned out on the pillow around her face. She’d spread her legs, as if to show she was ready for him, yet somehow she was still his Little Lapis—innocent and sweet at heart.

He kicked off his boots and shucked his shirt and trousers in record time. He crawled up onto the bed, clapped a hand over Louise’s mouth and kissed down her neck.

“Not a sound,” he breathed into her ear. “Not one sound out of you or daddy will spank your bottom raw.”

Today we are looking at her hot novel Jailed Little Jade from Blushing Books.

With a crappy ex-husband and a new lease on life, Jade Brooks moves to Spring Mills for a fresh start. What she gets is far more than she bargained for when Holden Foster shows up at her door.

He’s hot, dominating, and harbors a secret of intergalactic proportion.

When Jade is invited over to share a meal with Holden, she’s grateful for the company and a new friendship. Her curiosity gets the better of her when she finds a package on his counter and he tells her genuinely to open it up and see what was delivered.

The cylinder, a device that travels through time and space, opens a portal and leads Jade and her new sexy friend to a prison colony on his home planet of Adair, where spankings are a regular occurrence and age regression is a requirement for jailed women to rehabilitate within the system.

Given no choice but to become a little one, Jade must face a nanny with a firm hand, Holden as her poppa, and a blossoming relationship that is against the rules.

Past Interference by Kathryn R Blake

It is my pleasure to welcome Kathryn R Blake back to the blog today. This time we are looking at her book Past Interference from Blushing Books.

As regular visitors to my blog may remember, all of Kathryn’s heroes are dominant, alpha males who are extremely protective of the women they love. However, part of their protectiveness includes the need for a certain amount of control.  They do not suffer defiance or disobedience lightly. Even so, these men aren't infallible, and they do make mistakes, but love and respect will always triumph in the end. Read on:

Love isn't always gentle and kind

Blurb:

When Jerry Douglas asks Elly Benson to marry him, he wants their ceremony to be as close to Valentine's Day as possible. Though Elly tearfully accepts Jerry's proposal without hesitation, as she readies herself for her second wedding, the doubts and misgivings of any new bride-to-be are exacerbated by the abuse she suffered during her first marriage. When Elly recalls how quickly her uncertain stomach jitters grew into tight knots of pain on her wedding day, she also remembers how and why she'd fallen in love with and married Arthur, her first husband. A mistake she regrets more and more with each passing hour.

Though she's lived with Jerry for four months now, and been subject to his discipline more than once, her first husband had been kind and careful with her, too, in the beginning. At least until she vowed to love, honor and obey him. And their move to Corbin's Bend turned him from the strict, but caring husband she thought she'd married into a monster she no longer recognized.

Excerpt:

When Elly seeks Jerry out at his vet clinic, but refuses to leave a message when she learns he's with a client, he returns home to check on her.

 “What’s wrong?” Jerry asked with a glance at the strewn books before he rose to his feet and centered his gaze directly on her.

Elly groaned. The man was far too perceptive sometimes. “Nothing. I just thought I would drop by and check how you were doing.”

“Uh huh. Care to try that again, sweetheart?”

Her shoulders dropping, Elly confessed, “I think I’m getting another migraine.”

He crossed over and placed the back of his hand against her forehead. “Take anything for it?”

“No. Not yet. It only just started.” Okay, that was a lie, which would get her in even deeper trouble if he found out. She held still beneath his hand, but knew she was flushed, so she suspected he would be escorting her into the bathroom next.

He gave a brisk nod, then grabbed her hand. “Come with me.”

“Jerry,” she protested, but cut off her words with a grimace under his angry glare. Though he didn’t make taking her temperature a punishment, exactly. He did make it an exercise in obedience.

She stood in the bathroom while he retrieved the glass tube, shook it, and then liberally coated it with lubricating jelly. “Pants and panties down, now,” he ordered without looking at her.

With an inner groan, she obeyed and positioned herself over his knees when he sat on the toilet. They’d done this often enough after she’d been released from the hospital last October, so she should be used to it by now, but she never got over the way her former husband had punished her anally. Jerry questioned her almost every time they did this, but she was afraid he would decide an anal plug or a fig of ginger was an excellent way to get his point across, and she didn’t think she could willingly accept either of those punishments again.

She grimaced at the feel of thermometer sliding into her, but remained obedient and compliant. Jerry wasn’t trying to hurt or embarrass her. Not really. He was of the opinion that rectal temperatures were more accurate, so that’s what he used, and while they waited, he stroked her back and bottom to help her relax. Despite her uneasiness, his caresses calmed and centered her until she let out a soft sigh.

“Good girl,” he praised. “You always start out so tense when we do this, and yet you know I won’t hurt you, so I suspect it’s something Arthur did. We’re getting married in less than a week, Elly. Don’t you think it’s time you trusted me enough to tell me the truth?”

Getting to know Kathryn Blake with a few questions and answers:

How many books have you written and are they all spanking fiction?

"Past Interference" is my only novella, and my fifth spanking romance. My two other books are paranormal romances that have a bit of spanking in them, but aren't spanking romances by definition. So, all my books at least mention spanking and have dominant heroes struggling to protect independent heroines.

What advice would you have for writers who decide to try their hand at erotica?

My first advice would be to read several books in the genre. If you don't enjoy reading the stories, you aren't going to enjoy writing them. So make sure it's a genre pool you feel comfortable playing in.

How did you come up with your title?

The heroine was abused during her previous marriage, and though she knows Jerry, the hero, would never treat her the way her ex-husband did, memories from her past experience fill her with doubts about trying again. She never believed her first husband would end up hurting her so badly, so what if she's making another mistake. So, her past is interfering with her only chance at true happiness.

Is there a message in your novel that you want readers to grasp?

That we should learn from our past mistakes, but not let fear of making another mistake keep us from trying again. If you let fear rule your life, you'll end up stuck and unhappy.

Who designed your book's cover?

Anthony Walsh is responsible for designing all of the Corbin's Bend covers. They reflect the individual characters while remaining consistent for the series.

Are you looking for book two?

Book two in the Simon in Charge series, Winning Sadie, is nearing completion. The edits have been finished and soon the cover art will be ready.

Watch this space for more details.

In the meantime, you may want to read book one Simon Says:

“This intense romance novel gets right to the heart of the spanking matter and stays in full action mode throughout.”

Cassie Corralled by PK Corey

This week it is my privilege to introduce PK Corey, a small town southern writer. happily married to her best friend for over thirty years. With two grown children, the couple is learning to love the empty nest. Next year will see the end of a long and satisfying teaching career and PK is anxious to spend more time writing.

She didn't grow up with the desire to be a writer, but did love to daydream. As a child, she spent most of my spare time, and quite a bit of time when she should have been doing schoolwork, either reading or making up stories.

She was quite young when Cassie wandered into her head and began telling her stories. PK has always been drawn to spanking stories, but needs a little romance with it. That's how Cassie and Tom came to life, as a true love story with spanking thrown in.

Here is the lovely cover from her latest book, Cassie Corralled from Blushing Books.

Love and passion aren’t the soul property of the young. Wait until you meet Cassie and Tom.

Blurb:

Cassie is still living life to the fullest, telling Allie stories about everything from long ago shooting incidents to playing laser tag with the children. Tom keeps an amused, yet watchful eye, on his lovely wife. He tries to be tolerant of Cassie’s fun loving ways, but when she decides to spend the day with people she met through the Internet, without letting him or the girls know of her plans, Tom sees red. Tired of Cassie constantly putting herself in possible danger Tom decides to hire her a driver. Cassie immediately sees this plan for what it really is; Tom wants to hire a bodyguard / watchdog / babysitter for Cassie. That’s something Cassie won’t tolerate and after quickly packing a bag, she’s gone with a roar of the engine and a squeal of the tires. In this case Cassie is determine to have her way – and so is Tom. The final decision may change life on the river forever.

Excerpt

I could not believe what Tom was saying. “You will not!” I stormed. “I have done nothing wrong and you are not going to spank me and I don’t have to go anywhere against my will. Take me home. You can’t spank me for nothing.”

Tom made no comment and the ensuing silence was thick. We rode on without speaking for the near hour it took to reach the house. The company where Tom works now rents this house where we lived for seventeen years. Clients and visiting VIP’s stay here so it was beautifully decorated for Christmas, but I barely saw it as Tom took my hand and led me quickly to our old bedroom, a small overnight bag in his other hand.

I hate being spanked when Tom is truly upset with me – and he was. I hate it even more when I feel I’ve done nothing wrong. My overall success rate at getting out of a spanking once we’ve reached this point is probably less than a fraction of a percent – but I’m not one to go down without a fight.

“I don’t know what’s got your drawers wound so tight, but you have no business spanking me. I haven’t broken any of your silly rules. I haven’t lied to you about anything. I forgot to take a pill one day! That is nothing to spank me about. What’s wrong with you?

Tom said nothing so I went on, “Are you mad because I’ve been busy lately? I’ve had to take care of Sue and it’s December! Things are happening. I guess you’d rather me be chained in the house, but when you want to do something you can go anywhere, anytime. And this big, important party tonight – why are you so insistent on going? Who’s going to be there that you want to be with more than Annie and Andy?” 

I hate to even repeat this next part, but you have to understand I was just mad and on a roll. “Have you found another woman?” I stormed. “You want to show her she doesn’t have to worry about your old hag of a wife?”

I saw it, the hurt on Tom’s face just before it turned to anger. I tried to save it, “Tom, I’m sorry,” I backpedaled. “You know I didn’t mean that. I just…”

“I think that’s a darn good place to start.” He pulled me to the bed and quickly and none too gently pulled down both my slacks and panties at the same time. He began spanking quickly with his hand, but not terribly hard. This wasn’t a good sign; he was actually giving a warm up which told me he was going to take his time.

Getting to know PK Corey:

Tell me about your latest release

Cassie Corralled is the eighth in the Cassie Space series. This book continues the adventures of a couple who actively practice domestic discipline and have through out their forty-year marriage. This was always the type story I loved – a husband who loves his wife more than anything else in his life, but doesn’t hesitate to put her over his knee for a sound spanking if she puts herself in danger or is less than truthful with him. Through it all the love story is first.

Are you like any of your heroines?

A definite yes and no. Sometimes I think I gave too much of myself to Cassie – she can be fiery and hot headed, she’s fearless and strong. Since Cassie comes from me I feel these are my traits too – but it’s only as I’ve gotten older I feel I’ve given myself permission to be more like Cassie.

How many books have you written? Are they all spanking fiction?

I’ve published eight in the Cassie’s Space series. They are all spanking fiction, it’s what I understand and enjoy writing.

Are you okay in your kink?

I’m not only okay, I’m proud. I’m a born spanko who, like so many of us, hid it most my life. Once I embraced it, when reached a point where I don’t have to hide my true self from anyone, I’ve been much happier. I don’t go out and preach it on the street corner, but I can certainly hold my own in a conversation where someone is calling it unnatural or abusive.

Do you have a specific writing style?

I need to see and hear what’s going on with my characters. My husband teases me about saying I’m going to go write and he sees me in the recliner with my eyes closed. He thinks I’m sleeping when I’m actually watching what’s happening and afterwards I just write what I saw (ok, sometimes I’m sleeping).

Is there a message in your novel that you want readers to grasp?

Yes! Mostly that love and passion are not the soul property of the young. Getting older brings on challenges, but it doesn’t change your feelings about love, or sex or even your kink. And for all the twenty-something’s saying ‘ewww…’ there are more in their fifties, sixties, seventies and beyond saying ‘YES!’

Excerpt

"I bet he never had a friend in the first place," I said later that night when Hayden and I were getting ready for bed. "I bet he bought two tickets to the cricket just hoping he'd find someone to accompany him by telling that sob story."

"Don't be ridiculous," Hayden said.

"I thought this trip was all about us, Hayden? About us doing things together. About us nurturing our relationship with romantic candle-lit dinners. Not about you going off to watch a bunch of men chucking a ball around with some random guy, leaving me sitting here all evening on my own."

"I said you should meet us after the match. We can still go to dinner."

"And I said I didn't want to. Not with that tosser, anyway." I got into the pull-down bed and wriggled onto my side, pulling the sheet over me; it was way too hot for a doona, but I didn't like sleeping with no bedclothes at all.

"That's your choice – so don't blame me for the fact you'll be eating here alone."

"Better than hanging out with you and fucking Robert, anyway. How come he's not going to visit his friend after the match? His sick friend who can't make it? You'd think he'd go round there with a get well card and a bunch of grapes, wouldn't you, instead of – ouch!"

Hayden's hand stung my thigh. "What's that for?"

"Are you serious? You carry on like the proverbial pork chop because I'm spending one day attending a cricket match. One day out of the 365 we're spending together on this trip. And you ask why you got that slap? Any more of this carry-on and you'll be over my knee getting a really good spanking."

Because the caravan park was quiet, there was a good distance between us and the nearest caravan, so Hayden could probably carry out his threat with no risk of being overheard. I lay there quietly, burning with resentment, silently going over the pros and cons of defying him. The pros: I was right to make a fuss about this, and continuing to show him how annoyed I was would prove to him how unfair I thought he was being. The cons: It was going to be hard to sleep while I was angry anyway, so I didn't want to make it even harder by having a throbbing bottom. And I also didn't want to be spanked because of an argument over a jerk like Robert. I got the impression that he'd be pleased if he suspected I was in trouble with Hayden, and I didn't want to give him that satisfaction.

So that was one pro and two cons. I sighed.

"So you're going to behave yourself, then?" Hayden asked, getting under the sheet. "A very sensible decision."

Unlike the one you've made about the cricket. But I kept my thoughts to myself. I didn't want to give Hayden the satisfaction of spanking me either.

Hayden, as if guessing my thoughts, chuckled and snapped off the light.

Forceful Engagement by Jamie Phillips

Jamie Phillips is new to my blog today. As long as they can remember, the Phillips have been interested in reading and spanking, particularly romantic spanking. They think Mr. Knightley's verbal spanking of Emma in Jane Austen's book of the same name is the best there is anywhere. They say they're showing their age that they can remember the long ago days when it was easy to have both interests met in a large number of regular books. Eventually, their interest in reading became an interest in writing and that naturally led to writing spanking romances.

Married with two grown children they live in central Canada when they're not traveling, which is often. If they're not reading or writing, they can usually be found outside with a camera looking to capture perfect images of landscapes and wildlife.

The details of Jamie’s latest book, Forceful Engagement from Blushing Books are here for your enjoyment:

Engagements weren't all sweetness and light in Regency England, particularly if the young lady was annoyingly willful and the gentleman used to having his command's obeyed.

Val now has a title but he's virtually penniless so, on the advice of his cousin and against his own instincts, he accepts that marrying into a moneyed family is the best solution.

Although headstrong and outspoken, Rebekah Meadowes is the obvious choice because her family is the Calvert family bankers. But her willfulness and fiery personality have rebuffed all previous potential suitors. It would be a marriage of convenience for both of them -- her father's money, his father's title. She would get a title; he would get money enough to repair the family fortune. The deal is made, but not before Val has taught Rebekah a few stinging lessons in curbing her temper and her tongue.

They marry and begin the one sure goal they share, to restore the Calverton Estate to its former glory. Soon however, the couple must confront a dangerous mystery. Val has suddenly become accident prone and Rebekah is forced to take matters into her own hands to keep her husband safe. What was a marriage of convenience becomes something more as the couple challenge a common enemy. But will Rebekah's wily ways save Val? And how will he react to his wife plotting behind his back? Will they find the mysterious enemy in time? And will love win out in the end?

Excerpt: (PG-13)

A red veil seemed to lie between him and Rebekah. He sprang to his feet, crossed the floor swiftly to where Rebekah sat smirking at how cleverly she’d denounced him and the wickedness of armed conflict.

“You may insult me as much as you choose, Miss Meadowes,” Val said, grasping her arm and hauling her to her feet. “But I won’t stand idly by and let anyone disparage and slander our army.” Before Rebekah could even remonstrate or protect herself, he swatted her behind.

“Ow,” Rebekah squeaked and wriggled her behind away. He was not to be so easily evaded. In a moment, she was hauled around and another smart smack landed on her backside. Modern styles didn’t give a lady’s bottom any protection, was the idiotic thought that slipped into her mind; old-fashioned hooped skirts would have saved her. “Stop,” she cried, as yet another smack echoed around the room and made her hop ridiculously.

The Nanny by Allison West and Alta Hensley

This week I am happy to welcome back two legends of the BDSM / erotica genre, Alta Hensley and Allison West. You may remember this blog first featured one of their books back in March. Today we are looking at  The Nanny. 

The evocative cover of The Nanny, published by Blushing Books, invites you to dig right in, doesn’t it?

Genre: Age-Play, Victorian, BDSM

The taboo
The secret
The discipline
The Nanny…finally, her story.

Blurb:

When street urchin Georgiana Hayes meets a mysterious gentleman who offers her a warm meal and a chance to get warm again, she cannot resist.

The man who has rescued her from the cold is, in fact, Mr. Philip Hartley; the headmaster of the Ashby Chateau – a finishing school, and a place where young ladies can learn to submit and rediscover their inner ‘little’ selves. He is looking for a new nanny, and is quick to offer the position to Georgiana.

Georgiana accepts gratefully, and she instantly becomes The Nanny.

Unfortunately, she soon realizes that she is not really cut out for the role of disciplinarian. If anything, she finds herself beginning to envy the girls under her care, and wishes that she, too, could experience what it would be like to be little; to be cherished, cared for, and loved.

Theodore Elliott, a well-established businessman, is seeking a wife, and has craved the special love and affection of a ‘little’ for as long as he can remember. The moment he sets eyes on Nanny Giana, he knows without a doubt that she is the one he has been searching for. No other little at the school can compare to the dark-haired beauty.

Can Theo convince the headmaster to allow Giana to resign from her position as governess and enroll in the Ashby Chateau as a little? More importantly, is Giana willing to take that step for a man she barely knows but is intrigued by? Can she surrender herself physically, emotionally and sexually in order to become what Theo desires above all else: his little Gia?

From the authors of the best-selling ‘Enrolling Little Etta’, this next book in the Ashby Chateau series also contains elements of age-play, anal play, spanking, and graphic sex. While The Nanny does feature some characters and settings from Enrolling Little Etta, it should be noted that it can be read as a standalone.

Publisher's Note: This book contains age play and BDSM scenes. If such material offends you, please do not purchase.

EXCERPT

Nanny Beth stepped forward and ripped the cotton bloomers down Teresa's legs. The paddle extended from her hand and she landed the face of the wood across the young woman's bottom.

Crack.

The wood made a loud blistering sound as it landed on her bare posterior.

"Oww!" Teresa yelped as she tried to get away. Nanny Beth continued to paddle her wiggling behind two more times, appearing as if it took no effort at all.

Nanny Beth grabbed her by the wrist and held her so she was not able to run. "I suggest you grip the edge of the bathtub, child. Nanny Giana will finish the paddling, and perhaps next time you will think twice before causing such a scene."

Beth handed Giana the paddle and nodded toward the young woman's reddened bottom.

Giana did not think she had it in her to spank anyone, let alone a grown woman.

Teresa bent forward, her head down as she pushed her bottom out and gripped the edge of the bathtub, leaning forward. Her dress fell over her hips, exposing her once creamy complexion, which was now splotched pink from the paddle.

Nanny Beth waited for the discipline to ensue as Giana merely stood in shock. "She must learn that she takes orders from her nanny, which is you. She receives at least as many spanks as her regressed age. Tell Nanny Giana how old you are, and do not lie, child," Beth commanded.

"Seven," Teresa squeaked, her voice hardly above a whisper.

She was supposed to spank Teresa seven times? She did not think she had it in her to spank her once. At least the paddle would keep her own hand from walloping with pain.

"Usually, I would recommend the bare hand, but Teresa has been a naughty girl, and after the number of bare bottom spankings she received earlier, the paddle will remind her that tomorrow she will not want to disobey her nanny," Beth said. She looked at Giana with a stern expression. "Go on now, we do not have all night."

Come Back to Me by Jane Henry

Today I’m delighted to welcome back to my blog, the lovely Jane Henry with her book, Come Back to Me: book two in the Bound to You series. Here’s a look at the enticing cover - but wait until you read the sizzling excerpt:

Reunited couple Meredith and Paolo reclaim their passion through the erotic intimacy of Dominance and Submission.

Publisher:  Blushing Books

Released:   April 7, 2016

Genre:        Contemporary erotic D/s romance

Blurb:

Meredith and Paolo are reunited after a devastating accident drove them apart, in the hopes that embracing a lifestyle of Dominance and Submission will rekindle the passion they once had. The premise is very simple: Meredith will obey Paolo, and he will enforce his expectation of her obedience.

But where do they go from here? Paolo proposes a plan that will raise the stakes, a weekend of intense training that will push them both to the edge of their limits as they embrace their new-found roles.

Is Meredith prepared to be stripped of the protective wall she's built around herself? Will she willingly trust Paolo to lead her—even if that means submitting herself to his discipline? Can Paolo be all that she needs — her leader, protector, and disciplinarian, but most of all...her lover?

This is the second book in Meredith and Paolo's "Bound to You" trilogy, a story of love, trust, and devotion, as one couple rekindles their love through the passionate, erotic intimacy of Dominance and Submission.

EXCERPT:

When he spoke, he surprised her.

“I don't want to punish you, Meredith,” he began softly.

Her guilt intensified. He didn't want to punish her, and was her fault. She felt awful.

“Then don't,” she whispered. “I'm sorry. I hate that I've put you in this position. We don't have to--”

“Did I say I'd punish you if you disobeyed me?” he interrupted sharply.

She swallowed. “Yes. I mean, yes, sir,” she stammered.

“Do I always mean what I say?” he continued in the same sharp tone.

“Yes, sir. Always, sir.”

“Then I do have to punish you. But do you understand this isn't something that's enjoyable for either one of us?”

She looked down at her hands. “I do. Yes, sir.”

She wanted to be kneeling in front of him, his arms around her, sitting in his lap, anywhere but sitting on the other side of the bed feeling like a naughty child. His voice was hard when he spoke again.

“Then the next time you have the choice to obey me or disobey me, I want you thinking on this. Thinking on the fact that when I stretch you over my lap, I want it to be because you're fucking beautiful to me, not because you've disobeyed me. That when I give you an instruction, it's not because I'm full of myself but because I care about you and want you safe. Need I remind you that not six months ago, we got into a car accident that could've taken our lives?”

She gulped. “I know,” she said, her voice cracking. “Yes, sir.” Tears pricked her eyes and her throat ached.

“Yet still, you decided that drinking that much before you got in the car and drove home to me was a good idea?”

She shook her head silently, thankful he didn't require another verbal response.

He exhaled angrily.

“Get over here.” She stood and approached him on shaking legs. “Strip and get over my lap.”

Quickly, she obeyed, stripping off her clothing and tossing it on the floor, down to bare skin. She positioned herself over his lap, her head on the bed, her belly flush against his knees, breath coming in shallow gasps as his large hand settled on her naked skin.

“Are we clear that when I tell you to do something I expect you to obey me?”

She felt on edge, every nerve sizzling with anticipation of her punishment, as she felt a variety of emotions. Humiliation in being naked to him and being over his lap anticipating punishment. Attraction to his command of the situation. Guilt from having disobeyed him.

Fear of the pain.

“Yes, sir,” she said, bracing herself...

Getting to know Jane Henry:

Jane has been writing since her early teens, dabbling in short stories and poetry. When she married and began having children, her pen was laid to rest for several years, until the National Novel Writing Challenge (NaNoWriMo) in 2010 awakened in her the desire to write again. That year, she wrote her first novel, and has been writing ever since. In 2012, she became interested in the d/s lifestyle, and has discovered her love for writing romance with a d/s twist. With a houseful of children, she finds time to write in the early hours of the morning, squirreled away with a laptop, blanket, and cup of hot coffee. Years ago, she heard the wise advice, “Write the book you want to read,” and has taken it to heart. She sincerely hopes you also enjoy the books she likes to read.
