The Don's Daughter by Renee Rose

This week I am thrilled to host the articulate and talented Renee Rose, a #1 bestselling author in paranormal and sci-fi erotica.

Named Eroticon USA's Next Top Erotic Author in 2013, Renee Rose is a naughty wordsmith who writes romance novels centered around her favorite kink: spanking. She has won The Romance Reviews and Spanking Romance Reviews' Best Historical Romance, is often found on the list of Amazon's Top 100 Erotic Authors and is a regular columnist for Write Sex Right. She also pens BDSM stories under the name Darling Adams.

From Renee Rose’s extensive list of hot spanking romances, today her book, The Don’s Daughter, is in the spotlight. The excerpt that follows comes with a hot pepper warning – it is smoking!

Temptation is too sweet when the don's daughter offers her full submission, but when her father finds out, he'll probably wind up swimming with the fishes.

Blurb:

Genre:  Mafia D/s Romance

Giving control of her body to Carlo Romano, underboss to her father, was dangerous. More dangerous than her hair-brained idea to take off her clothes at a strip club as a form of sex therapy. But the temptation outweighed the risk. Carlo made her feel sexy, alive and appealing, feelings she’d scarcely known after two years with her cheating and demoralizing ex-boyfriend.

Carlo couldn’t believe Summer — the don’s daughter — was dancing half-naked on the stage of a strip club. Nor could he believe she suggested he’d be the one to take a belt to her ass and set her straight. But he’d had a thing for Summer since the day he moved in with her family, fresh off a plane from Sicily. He couldn’t walk away from the opportunity to get up-close and intimate, and show her his dominant side.

Still, Summer may not be ready for a new relationship, and even if she is, there was the not-so-small matter of what her parents would say — her father would probably want to kill Carlo if he found out he’d seen her naked...

Excerpt (R rated)

He found her lingering in the hall. She must’ve known he’d follow. He grabbed her elbow and steered her into the laundry room and shut the door.

In a flash, he had her pinned against the wall, her wrists pressed over her head, his fingers pinching one of her nipples through her thin cotton t-shirt. Thrusting one leg between her thighs, he leaned down and hissed in her ear, “Do you know what happens to little girls who tease?”

She writhed under him at the pain. “What?”

He yanked her skirt up to her waist and used his foot to shove her feet apart. Bringing the palm of his hand smartly up between her legs, he said, “That’s not the way you answer me.”

Her cheeks had flushed, eyes dilated and glassy.

He slapped her pussy again. The gusset of her panties were already damp.

“No, sir,” she yelped.

He slipped his fingers inside her panties and found her clit.

She gasped, bucking against him.

Another slap between her legs. His teeth nipped her shoulder. “They get their pussies spanked. Hard.”

She arched into him, lifting her breasts to his face. Her pussy opened to his fingers and he shoved two inside, sawing in and out. He pinched her hardened clit and covered her mouth with his hand as she cried out.

“You may not come.” He yanked her panties down to her ankles and made her step out of them.

“What happens if I do?” she gasped.

“You’ll be punished.” Shoving the wad of lace and silk in her mouth, he slapped open her thighs and spanked her clit.

She moaned and panted as he slapped her juicy folds again and again. When her cries grew more desperate, he stopped and released her wrists and stepped back.

“You do not have permission to touch yourself on the way home.” Her face clouded as she realized he wasn’t going to get her off. “Now get in your car and drive straight there. I want to find you naked, on your knees in the corner when I get back or you’ll be in even more trouble than you already are. Got it?” He plucked the panties out of her mouth and tucked them in his pocket.

Her eyes followed them with a pleading look.

He shook his head. “No panties for you. And no touching. I need to hear a yes, sir.”

Her throat worked as she swallowed. She shoved her skirt down and straightened her shirt, looking thoroughly chastised. “Yes, sir.”

He snatched her up with an arm around her waist and yanked her body into his. “I’m going to fuck you so hard you’ll be sore for a week.”

Her arms came around his neck and she lifted those sweet berry lips for a kiss, lust still swirling in her eyes.

He nipped her lips instead. “Bad girls don’t get kissed. They get fucked. Hard.” He slapped her ass. “Now get home and prepare yourself for me.”

A Cowboy's Pleasure - Naked Bluff Texas book 5 - by Anita Philmar

Today I am delighted to introduce Anita Philmar, a woman who grew up in Texas and lives in a house full of men and boys. This rich heritage has helped her create stories that push the limit. A writer by day and a dreamer by night she wants her readers to see the world in a new way.

Influenced by sci-fi programs, she likes to develop places where anything can happen and where erotic moments come to life in a great read.

Naughty or Nice? Read on and decide...

Today we are looking at her book, A Cowboy’s Pleasure, Naked Bluff Texas Series, Book 5.

Here is the charming cover:

Blurb–

Having traveled across the country to escape the war between the states, John Bristol Smith needs a job, any job.

Told of a potential job, he arrives at the interview with high expectation. Nothing, however, in his life prepared him for the nature of this assignment. Tess Van Pelt wants excitement and she means to have it.

Her husband is more than willing to pay for whatever she wants and she wants John.

Is this a job or a fantasy?

Excerpt:

“And how exactly do you plan to pleasure me?” She stepped back with a slight lift of her brow.

He grinned and noted the buttons on her dress. “Well, I rather enjoy playing with a woman’s bosom. Most women seem to like it.”

She lifted her hands and quick unfastened the top few. A cream-colored camisole peeked through exposing her milky white skin below.  A desire to touch ignited. He fought the urge to rid her of the silly undergarment.

Unable to hold back any longer when her top dropped, he walked forward and grabbed the silk string that held the piece together. One tug and luscious swells teased him with the bounty of what lay under the fabric. He longed for a better view and licked his lips, anxious for a chance to savor her.

 “Take it off, sweetheart. Let him have a look at your succulent breasts.” Gab demanded from the couch. “I know how much you enjoy having a man suck on your nipples.”

An eager glint flashed in her crystal blue eyes. She tugged her camisole out from her waistband and lifted the fabric up over her head. Before she was even free, John cupped the rich, full globes, and squeezed.

She moaned.

Eager to devour her delicious flesh, he sank back into the chair behind him and drew her forward, positioning her securely between his legs. At the perfect height for his mouth, he covered one breast and fondled the other. A low moan echoed through the room.

Suddenly, the notion of making love to this woman filled John with a hunger to take everything they offered while he could. Even though, they both might think of him as no more than a willing sex partner, he intended to enjoy every moment and demand satisfaction too.

***

Please give a warm welcome to John Bristol Smith from A Cowboy’s Pleasure by Anita Philmar today as we sit down and see what makes him tick.

Q: So tell us about yourself. What got you in the crosshairs for your author?

A. Anita, she fell in love with me while writing A Country Doctor’s Bride, which is not out yet because she stopped to write A Cowboy’s Pleasure. You see she liked the idea of me a bad boy. In truth, I was simply looking for a job. Can I help it if that job is to give a woman pleasure?

Q: What was it that drew you to your mate? 

A. Don’t have a mate. Don’t want one at the moment, but I sure could fall for someone like Tess Van Pelt. Lucky for me her husband doesn’t mind sharing so we can have some real fun.

Q: What’s your favorite type of naughty fun? 

A. Before meeting the Van Pelts, I would have said taking my love outside in an open field, but the Van Pelts have shown me how much fun a threesome can be. Can’t wait until I’m invited back to do it again.

Q: Boxers, briefs or Commando on a man?

A. Commando – boxers and brief were really used much in the 1860s and being rather on the poor side of the fence. I usually go without.

Q: If a woman wants to seduce you, what's one sure fire trick they can do to seduce you?

A. Just reach for the buttons of her dress and show me the sweet swell of her breasts. I want to release my holy poker and nail her right then and there.

Q: What was one of the most embarrassing things your author did to you in A Cowboy’s Pleasure?

A. Had me rush the moment with Tess. I mean with the lady lying in front of me naked, how could I not dive for a taste of her pussy and lick her moist center?

Blessed Beginnings - Hunter Ridge Series Book 4 by Maggie Ryan

Today I am honoured to introduce Maggie Ryan, one of the most popular authors at Blushing Books. We are looking at her book, Blessed Beginning, Hunter’s Ridge Book 4.

Doesn’t this cover just make you want to settle down in front of warm fire and read?

Tagline: Will love and trust be enough to hold the family together when a night of enchantment turns into a nightmare, threatening to tear the family apart?

Blurb:

In the fourth book of the bestselling Hunter's Ridge series, we return to visit the people who have come together for the holidays. Lucy and Louisa continue to blossom under the stern but loving guidance of Lucas and Edward, every day being another step along the paths they have chosen.

But they are not the only ones making choices. Will Franny be able to set her fears of courtship aside and give Samuel Benedict a chance to win her heart? Or will that one impulsive, naughty decision she made ruin her chance of finding true love?

Meanwhile, not one but three men are vying to capture the heart of the vivacious youngest Lady Huntington. Ettie discovers that courtship is thrilling, yet she also learns that there is more than simply love to consider. She knows she needs to feel adored, but can any one of the three make her feel truly cherished?

What path do these two young women wish to take and who will take the journey at their sides?

As shopping is done and gifts made by loving hands, the house is full of secrets. Will Lucy decide to share what she has learned? And what exactly is the secret that Louisa is holding close?

Days are filled with skating, sleigh rides and racing across the snow covered fields. Courting abounds, and preparations are made to attend the Grand Ball. Will love and trust be enough to hold the family together when a night of enchantment turns into a nightmare, threatening to tear the family apart?

Disclaimer: This book contains the spanking of adult women, explicit sexual scenes, and anal play. If any of these offend you, please do not purchase.

Her Papa spun her until she was in front of him, held in his arms as he began skating backwards. "Kitten, no matter how you might plead, we both know that you would feel lost without paying for your naughtiness. The cane is an implement that I know has you seriously considering your behavior. And, young lady, if you don't wish to wear wheals across your beautiful arse, then all you have to do is be a very good little girl."

Not able to deny his words, she flushed and, tossing her head back, stuck out her tongue. Hearing his chuckle, she closed her mouth, smacking her lips. "What? Don't you love catching snowflakes on your tongue?" A soft yelp was her next sound as his hand connected with her back of her skirts.

"And this is the same girl who wondered if I'd prefer her never to be naughty?" He twirled her in a circle before drawing her close again, bending to speak quietly. "Tonight, my love, you can demonstrate a much better use for that little tongue and your beautiful, warm mouth."

She wondered if the cream she could feel gathering in her core would freeze in the cold temperatures and then decided that no, her body was far too hot to allow that to occur. After she had given him another kiss and a whispered, "Yes, sir, Papa," they skated some more until she traded places to allow him to escort Franny around.

"Are you having fun?" Ettie asked, skating and stopping beside her.

"Yes. I will always love this place. This is where I felt we became true sisters."

Ettie nodded. "Um, are you sure you are okay? I mean, you screamed pretty loudly when you fell earlier."

"I'm fine. I was… um, my bottom is just a little sore."

"Oh, you don't have to say anything else," Ettie said, her cheeks flushing a bit redder than the cold air warranted. After a moment, she smiled. "You and Lucas are so great together. Even when you've been…" She paused, shaking her head. "You two always seem so happy. Do you think I will ever find a man who makes me that happy?"

"I hope so, Ettie. If you find a man half as good as your brother, I can promise that your life will be wonderful even if he gives you a tender arse when you're naughty."

"Lucy!" Ettie said and then giggled. "I love you so much because you are always honest about who you are. Thank you."

The conversation didn't go further as Lucas skated up to them and held out his hand. "Please, may I have this skate?"

Ettie giggled and managed to give a curtsy despite the slick ice. "It would be my pleasure, sir."

Lucy watched as brother and sister took a turn around the pond. She'd never been good at lying or pretending to be someone she wasn't. Besides, every member of her Papa's family was well aware that she often had a tender bottom. And, if Ettie truly was thinking of becoming a woman who gave more of herself than most wives, it didn't seem right to keep at least the basic facts of what that life would require from her.

Getting to know Maggie Ryan:

Maggie lives in the Lone Star state with her wonderful husband and writes both contemporary erotica and historical spanking romances. She creates characters that enjoy the provocative D/S lifestyle of today’s times as well as ones that live in the Victorian era, with age-play as a theme.

Maggie has always loved reading.  Growing up in a family with four children, it was difficult finding a place to be alone so she spent hours in the tub so she could read without being bothered. She was probably one of the squeakiest clean girls on the planet. It wasn’t long before she began to make up her own endings to the books she read.  From there, she began to write her own stories.

Not wanting to pigeonhole herself, she likes to write in many genres, capturing the many delicious possibilities out there and inside her head. She admits to being somewhat of a romantic though as her stories always must have a great deal of love, passion, corporal discipline and, of course, great, mind-blowing sex. She wants her readers to be able to see, hear, feel and know the characters that she is creating as well as she does as she as she brings them to life and transfers their stories to paper.  Her women are strong of character but also strong enough to know that submission given in love and trust to their partners does not make them weaker; it makes them far stronger. Her men are sexy, strong, demanding alpha males who know how to take what they want while acknowledging it is a gift given by the women who have chosen to submit to them.

She wants no doubt that her main characters would truly would die for each other, no matter how outsiders might view their relationship.

Her Choice Always by Megan McCoy

Today I welcome Megan McCoy who lives in the heartland of America, surrounded by corn, soybean fields, country music and hot guys on tractors. At home, she raises kids and breeds two types of dogs, breeding Chinese Cresteds and poodles. She trains them all with a tender hand and heart, while saving her sternness for the alpha males in her books.
When not writing, her hobbies are gardening, canning, bike riding, bread baking, taking in strays, and seeking her own alpha male.

Megan’s first DD book, Her Choice Always was published by Blushing Books.

Blurb:

Holly and Eric thought they had the perfect DD marriage - but then they were found out.  Can they keep what they happily had and still live in the 'real' world' where people know? 

 Genre: Domestic discipline, romantic erotica.

Excerpt:

“Over my knee. Assume the position.” He motioned and she looked into his eyes.

“Please?  I don’t want a spanking,” she said, stomach clenching. She didn’t want to whine, but she didn’t want what was about to happen either.

“Then you shouldn’t have done something to deserve one,” he said, almost cheerfully. “Buns up.  Over my lap. Now.”

Did he have any clue how hard this was to do?   Arrange herself willingly over his knee?  Opening her mouth to beg one more time for mercy or leniency or something, she saw his head shake slightly.   Holly let a small whimper escape, but then shut her mouth, and bent over his lap.

Hands forward, toes on the floor, for at least a second or two before she started kicking her legs.  The girls in videos she watched occasionally – just occasionally! really! - either got much less of a spanking than she did or had much more self-control. She tended to think it was the former. Nobody could spank as hard as Eric, she was certain.

Luckily for her, he didn’t spout nonsense like ‘hold still’ when there was no way she could.   Before very long at all, she’d be trying to cover her bottom with her hand and attempting to block that hair brush with her kicking feet, and vigorously wiggling, striving to slide off his lap.   She knew it, he knew it, and she figured secretly he appreciated her reactions to his efforts.   Just lying there and taking it would be boring, at least it was in the videos.  Why did they want them to just hold still?  She never understood it.

Plus, she always thought he’d paddle harder if she didn’t react to what he was doing, and who wanted that to happen?  Not this girl.   He paddled way too hard in any case, not that she could convince him of that, of course.  The few times she’d tried to tell him that, when he wasn’t spanking her, he just laughed and said “I know your limits and your bottom can take a lot more than I give you”.  Mean male.

“Huh, that’s funny,” he said. “I can’t see your butt. Pull your shirt up. I need a good target.”

Holly whimpered again, as one hand reached back to pull her shirt up, and he grabbed it while it was there, and held it in the small of her back.  This was not good.  He meant business.

She wiggled, trying to get more comfortable in this awkward and embarrassing position. He’d seen her in all positions, of course, but this one was not like sexual positions.  It felt way too vulnerable and she felt way too exposed, and they both knew why.  She wondered if he’d let her up if she said she had to pee? Doubtful.

“So explain to me in small words my poor male brain can comprehend why your butt is about to be lit on fire,” he said, rubbing her bottom with the cool wood of the hairbrush. She didn’t want to think of how good that felt.

“I’m sorry,” she gasped out.

“Not as sorry as you’re going to be,” he said cheerfully. Why was he in such a good mood?

What was worse, a pissed off male with a hairbrush or cheerfully determined one? Did it matter? The end result was going to be the same.  Pain in her rear. “Did I ask if you were sorry?” The hair brush rose and fell across both her cheeks with a loud crack that made her squeal and jump.

“Ow!” she complained.  He obligingly smacked her again and she wiggled.

“Answer my question,” he said. “Why is your bare butt over my lap?”

“Because you told me to put it there!” Holly wailed.

He cracked the hairbrush down again, “Is now really the time to have a smart mouth?”

“Maybe!” she sniffled, almost convincingly.

“Talk now,” he smacked her again in the same spot, “because in a few minutes you aren’t going to be able to.”

Getting to know Megan McCoy

What was your best date ever?

My best date ever was a possum date. He’d caught a possum in a live trap and we drove it out to the deep country to let it go. It didn’t want to go.  So after a half hour or so of twiddling our…thumbs…possum finally decided to go explore. Our exploring took longer.

How much of your books are realistic?

Do people ask this of murder mystery authors? Seriously?

What is your favorite line from a movie?

Independence Day: “We need to work on our communication” because we all do! No one communicates enough.

What is your message to your readers?

Go with the flow. If it works for you and your partner, it works. Don’t waste your time judging or worrying. Have fun with life!

Enrolling Little Etta

Genre: Victorian, Romantic Erotica, Age Play

Blurb:

Philip Hartley owns an elite finishing school and a hidden gem that focuses on the sexual submission and complete discipline of young ladies. Behavior, expectations, and beliefs are quite different there. A finishing school to help a woman find that little girl which once was lost. A private school that requires their pupils to surrender their bodies, their minds, and their souls to their betrothed.

When Henrietta Waters’ estranged uncle decides it best for her to attend the Ashby Chateau, and become betrothed to a proper husband, she has no choice but to comply. Especially since the recent death of her father has left her with very little options.

But can Etta fully surrender in ways she has never imagined? Can she allow a nanny to take care of her, fully take care of her every need? Can she submit to discipline and sexual training as the purity of her inner child blends with the fire of her sexual desires? And is it possible for her to truly become the little love that Headmaster Philip Hartley demands?

Publisher’s Note: Enrolling Little Etta is a Victorian erotic romance that focuses on ageplay, anal play, spankings, and graphic sex.

If a spicy Victorian is not your cup of tea, then please do not take a sip.

Excerpt

"I am displeased, Mae." He did not bother to address her by her previous title of nanny. She had been stripped of that responsibility, and would have to earn respect from him once again.

"I am sorry, Headmaster Philip," Mae said, apologetically. "I do not know what came over me."

"I do." His jaw remained tight, his fists at his sides. "You decided to take advantage of my little Etta." He walked toward the desk and opened the top drawer, revealing several disciplinary elements that were used on the girls at the chateau.

"She is a grown woman who consented to what happened," Mae said, excusing her behavior and her actions.

"In our care, she did not have the ability to consent. She is to be treated as a little at all times, and you took advantage of that with my Etta." He'd grown so fond of her in such a short time. "You are to lower your drawers and bare your bottom."

"Excuse me?" Mae's voice trembled.

"You heard me." Philip was not going to let this go without ample punishment. He'd do the same to a little who took advantage of a nanny or papa. No one was above the rules of Ashby.

Spy Games Book 1: Assassins by Heather Hart

Please join me in welcoming British author. Heather Hart who lives with her family in Maryland. She’s a writer of hot erotic and romantic fiction – an eclectic mix of innocence and dirt in a hyperactive imagination.

When she’s not frantically scribbling away she’s a cat worshipper and curry fanatic.

Today I'm looking at her novel Spy Games Book 1: Assassins from Blushing Books, an appealing mix of espionage and BDSM. It's a corker! Read on...

Blurb:

Undercover submissive falls for her mark,

Fresh out of training, the Agency sends Kassie Shannon into the secret world of Robert Redmond. They know he’s using his billion-dollar software company to steal sensitive information. What they don’t know is who he is selling the stolen information to, and it’s her job to find out.

He is a highly organized and secretive individual, and gaining Robert’s trust will be no easy task. But his Achilles’ heel is his passion for the BDSM lifestyle, so she poses as a trainee submissive and puts herself in his path.

Naturally cautious, Robert has never let a woman get under his skin. Until now. There’s something appealing about this inquisitive brunette with her oddly changeable personality and her passion for all things painful. He agrees to become her master, but soon falls for the chameleon beauty who is quickly becoming the most promising novice he has ever trained.

For Kassie there’s one big problem, though. The first rule of spying is not to fall in love on the job. Yet it’s hard to keep a professional detachment when your mark is all you ever wanted in a partner, and one who keeps opening doors to pleasures she never knew existed.

Still, sooner or later she will have to choose between two opposing demands—the cause she believes in, or the man she is bound to. Whichever choice she makes, it is likely that no one will win.

Excerpt:

To the right of him was her sitting room. It was almost exactly what he expected; chairs covered with throws and cushions, books everywhere, but cute in a disorganized sort of scholarly way. Without invitation he stepped inside, removed his jacket and hung it carefully over the backof a free chair.

She remained awkwardly in the hallway, totally unsure of herself. He liked that. He extended his hand to her.

"Come here."

She did as he bid, and he took her hand as he sat down on her sofa. She looked confused when he didn't pull her down beside him; instead he maneuvered her squarely in front of him and sat back as far as the cushions would allow. Then he did nothing. He just sat there, checking her over, waiting for her to wonder what was going on. Oh, he would get there, but not yet. He wanted her to feel uncomfortable first. That was a good place to start.

Sure enough in just a few seconds her hips lilted, and her stance became a little more aggressive.

"What do you want to do now?"

He adjusted his tie, straightening it rather than removing it. "Take off your top."

"Don't you want to undress me?"

"No."

He wouldn't ask her again. She wanted to try the submissive life, well, this was being submissive, to respond without question, to feel the thrill only found beyond her comfort zone. If she responded, then he would stay. If she clearly wasn't playing along, he would fuck her and never see her again. Everything hung in the balance.

She bit her lips and began unbuttoning her blouse. Her fingers fumbled, but, button-by-button, the silk opened, revealing the pale, well-toned skin below. Gently she shrugged the fabric off her shoulders, then stood, her hands crossed in front of her breasts, nervous.

"Turn around and step out of your skirt."

Getting to know Heather Hart:

Tell us about Spy Games – Assassins.

Assassins is a power-play story about a novice spy.  She masquerades as a submissive to bring down a man thought to be selling secrets to the enemy. But what begins as a mission soon turns into a journey of self-discovery, in a world where nothing is quite what it seems. The idea came out of nowhere and it’s been a lot of fun writing about Kassie and Robert. They get up to a lot of naughtiness and always manage to surprise me.

Can you tell us what you are working on now?

Sure.  ‘Kinky Assassins’ and ‘Stolen Love’ were released together in November, and the third in the series, ‘A Swinging Christmas’ will be outin December. So the next book will actually be the fourth in the series – and at the moment it’s tentatively called, ‘The Player’s Club.’ Like most of my stories I’m thrashing it out in my head first, but once I have a strong outline, it won’t take long to get it down.

What books have most influenced your life most? 
Oh, so, so many - - it’s hard to pick a few. I have always adored Oscar Wilde, Hardy, Austen and Dickens. But I like modern stuff too, and go gaga for the Harry Potter series, just like everyone else. The first erotica I ever read was, ‘The Story of O.’ And yes, it turned me to on read it. It’s a great example of well-written erotica.

Is there one subject you would never write about as an author? What is it?

I won’t be writing a mathematics book any time soon – just saying.

What item, that you don't have already, would you most like to own?
A Mercedes SUV. Too shallow? I don’t care. GIMME ONE.

A Cure for All Ills - Bethany Leigh

Today I’m thrilled to welcome the talented Bethany Leigh to my site. She and I have been friends for a long time and she has forgotten more about writing than I will ever know.

She writes domestic dramas and detective stories spiced up with spankings and romance. Her books are: Freedom, set in an alternate Edwardian England; Betrothed, a short prequel to Freedom; At Dead of Night, a contemporary whodunit; and just this week, A Cure For All Ills, an anthology of short domestic discipline stories. All are published by Blushing Books.

Bethany lives in Australia. When she’s not writing, she likes hanging out with her family, catching up with friends over a wine or coffee, and spotting kangaroos, wombats, kookaburras and other fabulous wildlife in the bush near her home.

***

This week we’re looking at A Cure For All Ills, the anthology that includes both real life problems as well as some time travel. Some of these stories are the most authentic to real life imaginable.

 Blurb:

Many misdeeds – one punishment

Maddie's hot new date loves to cook – but she avoids eating at all costs.

Sarah has perfect plans for her anniversary – but Dan's disappeared into his man-cave.

Ginny's always let her dog run free in the 'on-lead' area – but now a fine has turned up in the post.

Maddie, Sarah, Ginny and the other feisty women in these stories all have problems. And they all have men who believe that a spanking is a cure for all ills.

Excerpt:

Depressed and exhausted, Maddie took a long shower. The hot water felt comforting and the fruity aroma of her shower get lifted her spirits a little. It was okay, she told herself; it was a temporary lapse; she was back in control. She would go for a run or to the gym. Or maybe she would drive to the pool too, swim some laps. She’d burn off all those calories. And right at the end of the day, when Adam was due home, she’d go to the supermarket and replace everything she’d eaten so that he’d never know what had happened. And she’d never, ever do this again. She could beat this thing.

“Maddie.”

She jumped and shrieked. Oh, God, she thought, it could be – not Adam, he was at work.

But it was. The shower curtain was pulled back and Adam’s hand was switching off the shower. “Dry yourself, put on some clothes and come downstairs,” he told her curtly. “You’ve got some explaining to do.”

Tell us more about your new release

It’s a collection of short stories and is titled A Cure for All Ills. Whereas my first book, Freedom, was an alt-history and my second, At Dead of Night, was a detective story, A Cure for All Ills is a collection of honest-to-goodness domestic discipline stories. One of the stories features a spanko time-traveller from the future making illicit trips back to 1680s London to track down the legendary spanker Whipping Tom, but all the others are contemporary, featuring women in DD relationships and whose partners see – or come to see –  spanking as ‘a cure for all ills’.

Two of the stories feature a woman whose partner uses DD to help her overcome a severe eating disorder. What made you write about this?

I was bulimic throughout my twenties and used to long for a man like Adam to enter my life, take responsibility for my eating, and save me from my self-destructive dieting obsession. It didn’t happen for me, but it does happen for Maddie. When I first tried my hand at writing a DD story, the eating disorder scenario felt natural for me – troubled heroine with a serious problem, caring partner using tough love to help her recover.  So ‘A Cure for All Ills’ was the first DD story I ever wrote and the other one featuring Adam and Maddie, ‘Far to Go’, was the second.

Describe one scene in a novel that stayed with you long after you closed the book

There are so many – mostly to do with a fabulous twist in a murder mystery or sci-fi plot. But if we’re talking spanking scenes that stayed with me, I’m old enough to remember when spankings appeared in mainstream literature. It was always an unexpected thrill to turn the page and find yourself reading a spanking scene. I don’t remember anything at all about the Jeffrey Archer novels I read years ago apart from the spanking scene in Not a Penny More, Not a Penny Less where the hero spanked his girlfriend in the car. There was also a Jilly Cooper romance called Octavia I remember nothing about apart from the scene where the drunken heroine was spanked by a man she’d just met – and, of course, later she married him!

If you could go back in time, would you change anything about any of your books?

I’d set the events of Freedom and Betrothed in a Ruritanian kingdom rather than an alternate Edwardian England. I briefly considered doing so when writing Freedom, but thought it might not work given the settings were so very Downton Abbey-ish. But there was confusion when Freedom was released – some readers thought it was a badly researched historical novel as opposed to completely fictitious world that just happened to contain grand Downton Abbey-style houses and take place in the years the Suffragettes were active. So if I could time-travel like Louise in ‘Time and Again’ I’d make up a country name to go along with the made-up bedding ceremonies!

##SatSpanks Testing the Hardware

Sadie has just received a gift from Simon, a Mason Pearson hairbrush. Because there is company in the kitchen and she has not broken any of his rules for at least 12 hours, she doesn’t expect to taste its sting for a little while. Which shows how little she knows about him in the early days of their relationship. From my novel Simon Says:

"This spanking, like the one I left you with after the first night we spent together, is pre-emptive. A reminder not to need more drastic correction."

A wall of resistance rose up in me and I glared at him. But I undid my jeans.

He took my hand, led me to the counter, and bent me over it. 

"No! [They’ll] hear!"

"...The walls are solid concrete. No one will hear a thing. Unless you make too much noise. Now—hands."

I'd barely put my hands in the small of my back when he spanked me six times, hard and fast. Three swats on each cheek. The hairbrush burned and I bit my lip to stop from crying out.

Begin Again by Jane Henry

Today I welcome the wonderful Jane Henry to my blog. 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.  

Jane’s book, Begin Again, was released by Blushing Books on February 16, 2016.
Look at that cover! Doesn’t it make you want to jump right into the story?

Blurb:

Life is good for Meredith and her husband Paolo, when a terrible car accident leaves Paolo disabled. As he distances himself emotionally, Meredith seeks consolation in her fantasy world. Escaping into her erotic romance books not only helps keep the loneliness at bay, but also awakens in her a curiosity about the Dominant/submissive lifestyle. 

The day she stumbles upon a website forum of actual submissives and dominants, her life is forever changed. These are not characters created by authors. They are real people who engage in real life dominance and submission. As her knowledge grows, she learns there is one question only she can answer—is she truly submissive, or is the fantasy better left on the pages of a book?

In a last ditch effort to discover who she really is, Meredith agrees to pledge her obedience to an anonymous on-line Dom. She convinces herself it can't be considered cheating if her Dom is just a faceless entity in cyberspace. But the first time she's given an order, it all becomes too real. Will her devotion to please her on-line Dom take precedence over her flesh and blood husband? Will Meredith's journey of self-discovery destroy their marriage or will they somehow find a way to begin again?

EXCERPT from Begin Again: Book one in the Bound to You series:

“Oh, now you'll pay for that, little girl,” he said, as he held her in the air, kicking and screaming. She was laughing so hard she had tears in her eyes.

He sat down heavily on the bed, easily turning her over his knee, her upper body laying on the bed and her feet dangling helplessly. He took both her arms gently but firmly and pinned them behind her, on her lower back.

“Let's see how full of sass you are now,” he continued, as she felt his hands on the back of her skirt, pulling it off and baring her to him. She felt the fabric dangle around her ankles, and heat moving through her. She squirmed with her pulsating arousal as he restrained her. It was always like this, when he overpowered her, pinned her arms down in bed, or pushed her up against the wall, his strength sending red-hot signals to her lower regions.

“What were you saying just a moment ago, young lady?” he said, his deep voice sending shivers down her spine. “Think you can get away?”

“No sir,” she said, and just for the hell of it, she tried to squirm a little. His large palm slapped down on her naked ass, and she squealed from the sting of it. Her arousal intensified, as she felt his warm, coarse hand caressing the spot he'd just spanked.

“Ah, but you've really been a good little girl, haven't you?” he murmured, his voice softening now, and she melted.

“Yes, sir,” she whispered. She felt his hand lift up and come down again, but it wasn't like being punished. No, nothing like that at all. It was nothing like the pain – both emotional and physical – of a hard disciplinary spanking. This was for her pleasure. He'd take her just below her tolerance, with firm but deliberate strokes.

“Good girls deserve good girl spankings,” he crooned, his voice sending shudders through her.

Getting to know Jane Henry

What are you working on at the moment?

I'm currently working on three novels. I don't know if I've ever been working on three at the same time, but one is a co-written book, another so intense I can only write in fits and starts, and another historical romance that is my first historical, and a completely different tact for me because it's the first time I've written both first person and historical.

Give us an insight into your main character in Begin Again.

In this novel, Meredith is someone that I think is a very relatable character. She craves deeper intimacy with her husband, but doesn't really know how to get that, and she's also erotically and emotionally drawn to being taken in hand.

How much research do you do?

It all depends. My current WIP, the historical, is requiring more research than I've ever had to do. I finally checked a bunch of books out of the library and have been gleaning everything I can about pioneers, wagon travel, and the like.

Have you written any other novels in collaboration with other writers?

Yes! Maisy Archer is a very dear friend of mine, and we're finishing up our third co-written novel together. It's SO fun and I highly recommend this approach. We have our first co-written novel coming out with Blushing Books later this year, and a second in the series we're finishing now.

Lessons in Love with the mega-talented Kathryn R. Blake

Today I am honoured to welcome Kathryn R. Blake to my blog. Lessons in Love is her sixth novel with Blushing Books, and fifth spanking romance where Domestic Discipline is primary to the plot. I am in awe and I can’t wait to read this book.

A member of the RWA since the early 1980’s, Kathryn also belongs to several local and special interest chapters.

Although Kathryn is relatively new to the spanking romance market, she is not new to stories where the hero spanks the heroine. In fact, most of her novels have some sort of spanking in them. However, while Kathryn's heroes believe in using spanking as a deterrent, they have no desire to cause the heroine injury and take no delight in hurting their partners.

To date, all of her 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. Still, these men aren't infallible but love and respect always triumph in the end.

Kathryn enjoys traveling, reading, attending the theatre, and is a passionate lover of animals, so much so that in 2015 a stray cat adopted her. The stray now sleeps in Kathryn's bed. She has also recently taken up the expensive hobby of making and selling jewelry.

Her personal website, www.kathrynrblake.com, is filled with photos and links to information about her many interests as well as peppered with quizzes, contests, games and lots of other fun things to do and she loves to hear from her readers, so she has an e-mail link at the bottom of every page.

Lessons in Love

She knew she was flawed, he thought she was trainable. One of them was wrong.

Blurb:

Pam Weston didn't have many choices as far as employment went. Her prison sentence saw to that. With limited secretarial skills, and an even more limited budget, she never considered herself executive material. So, when she was ordered to report to the CEO of her company as his new personal assistant, she fully expected to be checking out the "Help Wanted" section of the paper before the day was over.

Robert Peterson knew his management style was not HR approved, but he believed in using the stick as well as the carrot. Employing the tenets of domestic discipline, he helped mold his personal assistants into confident women who recognized their own self-worth. Even so, his unorthodox methods were only one of the reasons many considered the position of his assistant to be a revolving door. To Rob's mind, Pamela Weston was perfect for his purposes, though given her past, he expected convincing her to agree to his program would be a challenge.

Excerpt:

Rob is setting the rules as he gives Pam a bath.

 Though she longed to cover herself, Pam remained still, naked and vulnerable before him as he bent and swiftly lifted her into his arms. She let out a gasp of surprise, which he completely ignored. Two steps later, he slowly lowered her into the steaming water, which turned her skin pink but wasn't hot enough to be painful. Just the way she liked it.

"Temperature okay?"

Pam returned his smile. "Perfect. How did you know?"

Lathering up a washcloth, he shrugged. "I set it at the heat level I prefer. Baths need to be steamy, or I don't feel clean, unless I'm already too warm. Then I want a shower. Rest your hands on the side of the tub while I see about getting you squeaky clean."

He started with her shoulders and chest, but, when he lowered his hands to her upper arms, she tried to pull away.

"No. We have rules tonight. What were your instructions?"

"I'm not to speak or move without your permission."

"Correct. Did I give you permission to withdraw your arm?"

"No, sir."

"Disobedience requires a consequence."

Pam met his gaze. He wasn't smiling but he didn't appear angry either. Rather than question or argue, she waited for his verdict.

"Draw your knees up and part your legs for me," he ordered. His voice, husky and smooth like expensive whiskey, went straight to her groin. Though the bathtub was long enough for two people, it wasn't unusually wide. However, when she drew her knees up, she was able to spread them without difficulty.

He promptly reached between her thighs and stroked. "You are not to move. Understand? Disobey me again, and you'll get a smack instead."

Pam clutched the sides of the tub as his wicked fingers began their erotic torture. Letting out a soft moan, she struggled to keep her eyes open and her body still. When the sensations grew too strong, she whimpered with her need to come.

Bending his head, he positioned his mouth a fraction away from hers but didn't kiss her. "Good girl," he murmured.

"Rob…."

"You may come," he decreed before his lips swept down to claim her. Pam cried out as she wrapped her arms about his neck and climaxed.

Her breathing ragged, she gripped his broad shoulders, afraid to see his face. His disappointment. Except the feather-light kisses he placed on her cheeks and eyes did not indicate displeasure. Finally, he grasped her wrists and drew back to gaze at her.

Getting to know Kathryn R. Blake:

Are you like any of your heroines?

I'd say most of my heroines and I share some history. They are a part of me and share some of my feelings, but they are definitely different people. Most are much braver and fiestier than I ever could be, but then I'm more even tempered and easy going than most of the women in my stories, and I have fewer hang-ups.

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

Lessons in Love is my eighth novel, but only my sixth 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.

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

My heroine has a lot of issues, including a huge helping of self-doubt, but the hero gets her to see herself the way he sees her. She's not entirely convinced he's not nearsighted, but she does finally accept that he loves her and he isn't trying to change her into something she's not. So, despite all her problems, she is worthy of being loved.

Do you have anything specific you'd like to say to your readers?

Yes, I'd like to publicly acknowledge the help and support I received from a few individuals. Books require a team effort, so I'd like to thank Kate Richards for her editorial guidance, Celeste Jones for her insightful input, and Staci Taylor for overseeing the project.

As a child, what did you wish to become when you grew up?

My aspirations changed as I grew up. At one point early on I thought I wanted to become a doctor or vet, but I can't stand to see anyone in pain, especially not children or animals, so that bubble burst. Ballet always interested me, but I've got two left feet, so didn't get very far with that one, either. I loved to act, so I was a bit of a drama queen. In college, I majored in drama, but I identified too closely with my characters, so I gave up that dream to identify with my characters through writing.

What Internet site do you surf to the most?

Facebook. I never used to visit FB, but then I joined some writing groups and now it's one of the first and last places I visit.
