“Your reign of terror is over”
A Handful of Stars
by: Susannah Shannon
Publisher: Blushing Books
Released: June 5, 2016
Genre: romance/erotica/BDSM
Blurb:
How can two people who love each other as much as Jessica and Adam do find themselves in a bitter rut? An incident at work begins to change Jessica’s views towards discipline. Is it possible that being held accountable can build up a person? Jessica is intrigued that she might have found the solution she’s been searching for.
When looking for guidance about delivering a reasonable paddling she stumbles across a professional dominatrix and a chatroom of opinionated spankophiles. Can Ms. Margaret’s advice lead to a scorched bottom and a sweeter romance?
How will Adam balance his new found authority in his marriage with his role as a prosecutor of men who assault their wives? Together, their journey of discovery leads to a more profound commitment, and lovemaking that leaves Jessica breathless.
Excerpt:
With her bottom still bared, Adam stood her up and restated the new rules. “You will
behave or I will spank you until you are very sorry,” he said, looking straight into her eyes. She nodded. She had been through a gamut of emotions—she had felt insolent, resentful, angry, sorry, repentant and very, very loved. Right now she felt powerful. She smiled. She had done it.
She felt like a boss.
Jess was astonished at how exhausted she was. She’d smoothed her skirts down and had briefly considered asking Adam for her panties back. When he didn’t offer them she decided it best to not bring it up. Margaret gathered her into a warm embrace. They walked to Adam’s car hand in hand. Adam mentioned that the moon was full. She was sure there was a ‘mooning’ joke in there somewhere but she couldn’t quite find it.
Sitting in the car was not easy. Jess now had no doubt that Margaret had known what she was talking about when she said that the pain of a paddling grew. The leather seats felt cool to her throbbing backside. She shifted around. There was no way to get comfortable, even on the heavily padded seat. She laid her forehead against the window and tried to gather her thoughts.
“So, will you really do that to me again?”
Adam reached for her hand, she had always admired what an adroit driver he was. With the hand not on the steering wheel, he squeezed hers and he firmly responded, “You better believe it, young lady. Your reign of terror is over. I love you and we deserve to be happy.”
Susannah is so good at writing Domestic Discipline.

“I’m not obliged to obey you”
Claimed by the Mountain Man
Times are hard in Montana in the mid-1800s, and when Nettie finds herself impoverished, desperate, and alone after the death of her husband, she flees the town of Helena to escape the clutches of the local saloon owner. But living off the land quickly proves much more difficult than she’d hoped, and after days without food she resorts to stealing from Jack Abrams, a gruff mountain man and trapper who lives a secluded, uncomplicated life in the woods.
Jack doesn’t take kindly to being stolen from and when he catches her red-handed, Nettie ends up lying naked over his knee for a long, hard spanking. To her surprise, however, after her punishment Jack offers her food and shelter in return for cooking, cleaning, and doing as she is told. But Nettie is determined to never rely on a man again, and with a belly full of food and renewed determination, she abandons him to take another shot at living in the woods on her own.
Jack knows the headstrong girl won’t survive without his help, especially when she chooses a grizzly’s winter cave as her shelter, and he can’t stand by and idly watch her demise. When his irritation with her foolish pride boils over, he decides it is time to show her how thoroughly a man can dominate a woman silly enough to venture into the woods alone. Jack’s stern chastisement and bold mastery of her body leave Nettie begging for more, but is she truly ready to give up her freedom to be claimed by the mountain man?
Publisher’s Note: Claimed by the Mountain Man is an erotic romance novel that contains sexual scenes and spankings. If such material offends you, please don’t buy this book.
Here is a taste…
Excerpt
Jack stood and walked to the sofa, where he sat while she attended to the dishes. He watched and waited for her to finish before he said, “Come here, Nettie.” He needed to talk some sense into her, and now was as good a time as any.
She frowned and didn’t look like she wanted to obey, but she traipsed to him after a moment’s hesitation. He pointed to the spot next to him. She sat and self-consciously tugged at the hem of his shirt that she was wearing. Then she folded her hands in front of her on her lap and looked at them instead of at him, seeming to know that she wouldn’t like whatever he had to say.
Jack rubbed a hand around the beard on his face. “I won’t allow you to go on living in that cave.” His words came out exactly how he hoped they wouldn’t, as an order. A strict upbringing, followed by six years in the military, meant orders were what he was used to, both giving and receiving, and he wasn’t sure how to get his point across to the woman any other way.
She scowled at her folded hands. “You ain’t my husband or pa, Trapper Jack, and you don’t own that cave. I’m not obliged to obey you.”
His jaw clenched. This wasn’t going to be an easy task, convincing her to listen to reason. He found her argument downright infuriating. “I know a thing or two about living in the woods,” he said, raising his voice a notch. “I can see you’re real good at some things, like baking, mending, and cleaning. You’re even all right at skinning a rabbit, but none of that will matter if you can’t catch your food and you don’t have proper shelter come winter.”
She opened her mouth to protest, but he held a finger to her lips. They felt damp and soft, and he felt the sudden desire to kiss her stubborn mouth, if for no other reason than to prevent her from saying another foolish word. The fire in her eyes died when he touched her, and she gazed at him dolefully. He continued his lecture. “Don’t waste your breath saying you’re gonna shoot the grizzly. That’s a fool’s notion. I imagine you’re about as good at shooting as you are at trapping, and you can’t afford to make a mistake there. You miss the bear or only injure it, you’re dead.”

You’re invited to a Honeymoon
It’s JUNE and we all know what this month is known for…WEDDINGS! And we just got an invitation to join Kal and Demi on their honeymoon! What could be more fun than that? We followed them on their engagement in Disciplining Demi 1 and we were SO WELL BEHAVED, we are invited to their HONEYMOON!
Ivy Killian
Disciplining Demi
The Honeymoon
The saga of Kal and Demi continues in this romantic erotica featuring domestic discipline, intense lovemaking, and bare bottom spankings. Join the new Mr. and Mrs. as they honeymoon atop a secluded mountaintop.
Excited to spend a week alone with her groom, newlywed Demi Durango packs a pair of shiny white panties with the word Bride sparkling across the small triangular stretch of satin and wonders if Kal will make good on his promise to fulfill her deepest sexual desires, but she soon learns there is more to her wifely duties than learning the art of lovemaking. She must also master the rules of Inner Peace in order to experience the harmony and happiness the DD lifestyle promises. As she’s reading the rule book, ‘Total Submission’ blazes across the headline. Stunned and overwhelmed, she questions her resolve. What would a man have to do to deserve her absolute devotion, inside and outside the bedroom?
Dominate, loving, and protective Kal Durango takes his responsibility to lead his family very seriously. Teaching Demi to live in constant submission to him is a dream come true, and she is making great strides in yielding herself to him and his instruction. He implements maintenance spankings at once to strengthen his position as head of household and to help her accept her position as a submissive wife. What he couldn’t fix with the palm of his hand, he was sure a long wispy switch applied to her bare bottom would leave little doubt of who was in charge, and the vast forest around them offers a plethora of instruments to help Demi along her path to submission.
Join Kal and Demi as they embark on their new adventure as husband and wife.
NICE, RIGHT?
Here is a sneak peek at what going on this honeymoon will look like. What are you waiting for? Get that seat belt fastened!
“Are you going to be a good girl today?” Kal Durango asked his bride.
Heat rushed Demi’s face. Total embarrassment scorched her cheeks. Chin to her chest, she let her locks shield the redness as she busied herself with the pleats adorning the waist of her white sundress, her heart as blue as her sandals. Demi brushed the soft cotton smooth and sank into the plush first-class seat of the large aircraft bound for a week of honeymooning at Blissful Falls. She wished she could blink herself onto the secluded mountaintop and forgo the shame Kal poured on.
Kal claimed the seat next to hers, clicked into his seatbelt, and leaned toward her. Damn he smelled good. Powerful. He kissed her temple. “Hey now, lighten up.” Tender and patient fingers curled under her chin, lifting until she looked at him. His smile warmed her heart. “No one heard. Everyone’s busy getting situated.”
His words settled her racing pulse, and as the jet roared down the runway, Demi hooked her elbow with his. Resting her head on his shoulder, she held her left hand out in front of them and admired the glittery rose-gold bands on her finger. Honor, cherish, and obey until death do them part. She smiled up at the hunk of muscles sitting next to her.
Kal’s mischievous brown eyes twinkled down at her. In one hand, he held a rolled copy of Inner Peace drumming the thick cylinder-shaped tube detailing the rules of living as a submissive wife against his open palm. He winked. “Training begins now.”
And just what does “training” mean? Accept your invitation and find out!!!

Excerpt
We purchased ice from the caravan park shop and put all our perishable food in the large cooler. By now it was after five o’clock, so Hayden cooked up the chops at one of the caravan park barbecues and I buttered some rolls and tossed together a salad. I was glad of the antics of the cockatoos as we ate at the picnic table outside our caravan. Hayden was still annoyed and clearly longing to spank me. And, while I knew I deserved it, I was dreading being spanked. Especially given that the caravan park, while certainly not crowded, was definitely not empty either. A couple of caravans and tents were close enough that their occupants would be able to hear me being spanked.
“Hayden,” I said when we did the washing up. “You can’t really…you know…”
“Spank you?” His voice was grim. “I can and I will.”
“Someone could hear,” I said.
“So?”
“Well, it’s embarrassing,” I said. “And also, someone could call the cops.”
He chuckled. “Actually, I had no intention of spanking you here. I don’t want some hero deciding you need rescuing. I have an alternative venue in mind where no one will hear you and we won’t be disturbed.” He put the final plate back in the cupboard. “Okay, we’ve a couple of hours till dusk. We can sit outside and play cards for a while.”
Play cards? While I waited to be spanked? What planet did he live on?
Still, I wasn’t going to argue. It was impossible to concentrate, though. I lost every round. When it started to get dark, he put the cards back in their box and said, “Time to go. Make sure you bring your hairbrush and your phone.”
“My phone?”
“We don’t have an egg timer,” he reminded me. “So we’ll set the timer on your phone for your spanking.”
Reluctantly, I put my hairbrush and phone in my bag. I wondered how many minutes he’d spank me for. In the old days, it had been excruciating writhing over his knee being tanned with the hairbrush and waiting for that wretched egg timer to finally go off. I wasn’t looking forward to getting reacquainted with the experience.
Hayden drove out of the caravan park and turned in the opposite direction to Halls Gap. Driving slowly, to avoid hitting kangaroos, he made his way into part of the national park. There was no one around. He drove until he found a picnic spot, empty apart from a mob of kangaroos. “We’ll use that bench,” he said, nodding towards it. “Go over there and wait for me.”
OH MY GOSH! I CAN JUST IMAGINE WHAT SHE IS THINKING… CAN’T YOU???

The Wilder the Better
RECKLESS INTENT
BY
DULCIE TAYLOR
Release: May 19, 2016
AUTHOR NOTE
I started writing this book many years ago. In fact, long before I had ever considered publishing. Writing, at that time, was something I did for me, and while it still is, there is an indescribable joy that comes from sharing it with others.
It was a start and stop process as my life was busy with two little ones, a part-time job and a husband that did a lot of overtime. Imagine me, a baby on my hip, pushing a three-wheeled lawn mower (one wheel fell off, and my husband had no time to fix it) making pathways in the grass for my toddler to follow. J All wonderful, but busy years and Reckless Intent was left to collect proverbial dust. It was only recently, since joining Blushing Books that I decided to dust it off and finish Mylie and Kevin’s story once and for all.
It came to me all those years ago simply as a scene where Mylie Blake learns a secret that turns her life upside down (no spoilers here). From there, the very HOT Kevin Sheldon was developed and as I’m a big fan of broken characters, he isn’t as typically together as some heroes are. Mylie and Kevin take the journey to self-discovery and growth together.
Reckless Intent has been a long time coming, and I can’t wait to share it with all of you.
Dulcie Taylor
Blurb:
After years of complacency, a shocking secret yanks Mylie Blake out of her bland existence. Leaving everything behind, she decides to remake herself—the wilder the better. Her first crazy stunt involves too much alcohol, zero sense and lands her in the hands of the only man she’s ever loved—a man now infamous for his hot temper and bad-boy ways. With nowhere to go and little money to get there, Mylie just might be at the mercy of the devil himself.
Kevin Sheldon, a former professional hockey player, known for his anger issues, on and off the ice, is just trying to get through the mess his life has become, but when his first love shows up wild and intent on ruining herself, he can’t help himself. He’s the last person on the planet with a hero complex, and has own crosses to bear, but Mylie has a hold on him that he’s never been able to shake. And the more he tries to help her, the messier his life becomes.
With their pasts hot on their heels, they must run. Can they face their demons together and accept they’re meant to be or will they run from each other too?
So check out this great new book. Dulcie’s books are fresh and contemporary. If you need a break from Dark but still need a little spanking in your read, come on down!
HERE is a taste of what you will get.
“Take a look, Kevin! Do I look like a child in need of minding to you?”
She spun to leave him in his spot, but his arm flew out to catch her elbow. He pulled her into his chest. His eyes were molten and seemed to flicker both desire and irritation simultaneously. Her skin tingled with the heat of his, and her middle ached. He pushed her back, looked her up and down, and nodded.
“In a perverted sort of way, yeah.” He half smiled.
She looked down at herself in schoolgirl garb and groaned. “You know what I meant, you ass!”
“Now, now, honey, you’d better watch that mouth of yours. Remember, you’re afraid of me.” His brow tightened in a threatening way, but amusement still shone in her eyes.
She ripped her arm from his hand but didn’t move. His breath was minty hot on her face.
“Your wife is a liar, but even if she weren’t, I wouldn’t care. Right now, I can’t think of anything more amusing than pushing your buttons.” She smiled as Kevin’s right eyebrow arched. He grabbed both her shoulders and crushed her against him.
“Really?” Something flickered in his eyes. The corners of his mouth tightened. Her stomach dipped. “And I can’t imagine anything more satisfying than pulling you over my knee.”
“Ha, recently both your attempts were pathetic. One I can’t remember, and the other was well…” She rolled her eyes. “Boring.”
“Oh?” He released her with one hand and rubbed his chin. “Perhaps I’m out of practice.”
“I’m sure your wife didn’t think so.”
“I never liked my wife enough to spank her, Mylie.”
“Last I checked, you don’t like me much anymore, either.” For a moment, her heart sank.
“You’re growing on me.” He held her chin between his thumb and forefinger gently. “Besides, you need a spanking more than anyone ever has, right now.”
Her gut swirled, and her bottom tingled. She was crazy hot and had to use all her restraint to stop herself from jumping up and wrapping her legs around his waist. Feverish thoughts of crushing his mouth with hers licked like flames in her mind. She narrowed her eyes at him, pulling herself from his grip. She folded her arms across her chest and cocked her head.
“Your bank account can’t handle another abuse allegation.” She bit her bottom lip, hoping she looked, at least, a little bit sexy.
“What I’m going to do to you will be worth every penny I have.” He turned and walked to the door, taking all the air in the room with him. When he was just about out the door, he pulled on his shirt and turned back. “And, darlin’, when I’m through with you, you’ll be too busy rubbing your sizzling backside and sobbing to worry about legalities. Only right now, I need to cool off.”
OH MY GOSH!! UM…, YES PLEASE!!!

About the Author:
I started creating stories as soon as I could write and even as a young aspiring novelist found that my heroes were frequently loving but dominant men that kept their feisty ladies in line. What luck that I found fans that enjoy reading about those sassy characters as much as I enjoy writing about them!
I live in a small Canadian town with my husband, two daughters, and the many characters that play in my head while I go about my day. It’s not unusual to spot me at the market with a faraway look and a smirk as one of those characters has most certainly gotten herself in a pickle!
When I’m not writing or working one of my two ‘day’ jobs, I love taking my 80lbs labradoodle for long walks along the river, lazing in my hammock snuggled up with my girls, the dog, or just my Kindle. Or in colder winter months, skiing, skating, or more often, hibernating.

Why did she ever peek in through that missing chinking…
Now presenting a standalone book that I have struggled with to get like I wanted. It is a full size novel. Out for ARC readers today so I will share the cover for the rest of you. 1870, North Texas Cattle Country but really, not about cattle. About…
Taming Texanna by Alyssa Bailey
Texanna Rae Grant, at nineteen, was not happy even though she knew men lusted after her. She was not marriage material. Her mother had left her when she was a child, her brother as a teen and now her father wanted to be rid of her. She didn’t know why she was so unlovable but she obviously was. That is why, when her best friend Mandy said her cousin, the marshal, had eyes for her, Texanna rolled hers. He wouldn’t be interested in her and even if he were, he wouldn’t stay. No one ever did.
Half-breed Marshal Colton McFadden was known all over the West for his uncanny inner sense and tracking abilities. Many of the unattached women of the quickly growing township took an interest in him but he only had eyes for one woman, Texanna Grant. Colton’s inner vision seemed to see into her very soul that was innocent but troubled. However, he was not under any illusions that a father would allow him to court his daughter due to his mixed blood, marshal or not.
Then a hole in a storeroom chinking on laundry day, trousers, men’s undergarments, a little coercion, and a spanking changed everything. Now Mr. Grant insists on a marriage, Texanna is on the run, and Colton needs to bring order back to his house and his life. First thing’s first, however. He needs to track down, marry, and take home his woman. Then he can start Taming Texanna.

My Anniversary is Today!
An author friend asked a question about traits to the group and I thought it was a good time to weigh in on my idea of qualities. these are in no specific order and obviously only really apply to us and our marriage.
Thursday the 12th. tomorrow is my 37th anniversary so I have a few ideas on what has worked for us. (not saying it is for everyone).
With these general rules we have had and raised 5 children, adopted and predominately raised 6 more, fostered over 220 kids, lived together-married for 37 years:
1. He was my friend before my lover/husband.
2. It is okay to look (at a nice looking girl or guy) but never okay to touch.
3. If there is a problem, be willing to share it and work together to solve it.
4. Just because we think differently doesn’t mean we don’t each understand the problem. Listen to the other partner. Take their advice if you can. Don’t always try to fix the problem, listening is often all we need.
5. Shoot for the same goals and share your dreams.
6. Be kind.
7. Be together on the kids. His, yours, shared.
8. Love unconditionally and once earned, trust each other unconditionally.
9. Practice respect and compliment each other, let them know you are proud of who they are and are becoming.
10. Have fun. Jokes have their place and life isn’t all serious.
11. Have sex as often as you can and if he wants to rule the bedroom, you are a lucky woman. And if he spanks, all the better.
12. Nothing is wrong if it is safe, sane, consensual and private from the kids. Meaning, we are openly demonstrative but do not demonstrate our kinks openly.
13. Say I’m Sorry as often as needed.
14. Take time to be alone and time to be alone together. Go on dates. Vacations, weekends, overnights occasionally- alone together.
I am sure there are others but this is enough.
ONE FINAL WORD:
To my life partner, my husband, my lover, my all
I love you, with all that I was, all that I am and all that I hope to be.
You complete my sentences, start my day and end my nights.
There is no one more perfect for me then you.

What happens when you blow off your Dom?
Love this series!!!
I have been gone for several weeks and my lovely friend and fellow author put out a book while I was playing hooky. Now I am back and I needed to make sure you all remember to buy this book.
Jane’s works is sexy, erotic, hot and loving all while showing the D/s lifestyle as it should be, comforting and satisfying to both participants.
Come Back to Me: Book two in the Bound to You series
by Jane Henry
Publisher: Blushing Books
Released: April 7, 2016
Genre: Contemporary erotic D/s romance
Reunited couple Meredith and Paolo
reclaim their passion through the erotic intimacy of Dominance and Submission. (I love the name Paolo, don’t you? He can’t be anything but dominant with a name like that!)
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:
“I – I planned on only having two drinks. I planned on Kirstin coming out with me to the lot, even though I thought it was overprotective and silly to make me do that, but… you didn’t answer the phone.” He placed his finger back under her chin, and she felt tears come as he made her look at his own dark, simmering eyes.
“I got mad,” she whispered. “Thought it was…you were…not really very serious about me, if you couldn’t even answer the phone.” It sounded so silly when she said it all out loud, though it had made perfect sense at the time.
He paused a beat before he spoke.
“So because I didn’t answer, you thought that deliberately disobeying the two very simple things I asked of you was a justifiable decision?”
Oh, great. When he put it that way…
“Um. Yeah?” she whispered. “Plus drinks were two for three,” she said, in a completely futile last-ditch effort. She tried to break eye contact, but his hand grasped her chin even more firmly than before, and she found she couldn’t look away. His eyes were furious, his lips pursed in a thin line, and she could practically feel the anger emanating from him. Oh, God. His voice was low and dangerous when he spoke.
“You think this is a joke?” he asked, in a voice just above a whisper.
“No,” she whispered, her voice trembling, hands shaking.
“No? Yet you think it’s okay to ignore my instructions?” Even though she was nervous, and her heart pounded, even though she knew now he was going to punish her and there was no escaping now, she still felt a twinge of arousal at his words. His instructions. She wanted instructions from him. She wanted him to give a shit about her. She wanted to know she meant something to him.
“I don’t think it’s okay. No.” She felt her lip trembling. “I was wrong. I know I was. And…” her voice dropped. It was still so hard to say. “I’m sorry I disobeyed you.”
He said nothing as he gave her a long, hard look.
“I’m glad to hear that,” he said, leaning closer to her and taking her face in both hands so that they were only inches away when he whispered, “Because I’m totally fucking serious.”

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.

Book #2 in the Cass Chronicles
Read the tease:
Cass Nelson has gotten used to blizzards, wolves and being an outsider in Slicktrench Alaska. While she couldn’t be happier in her marriage to Killian, the arrival of a surprise package is a potent reminder that her marriage
While she couldn’t be happier in her marriage to Killian, the arrival of a surprise package is a potent reminder that her marriage isn’t like the relationships her friends all have. She might not understand this whole being a submissive wife business, but she does understand that she can’t imagine living a life without the man she adores even if he lights up her bottom on a regular basis.Busy with helping to run the lodge and posting on her very popular CassCooks blog, her life tips upside down with having to deal with Killian’s brother who is marrying a woman that nobody likes and an IRS auditor nosing around the lodge.
Just when Cass has decided that the best way to ensure a happy marriage is to totally give up her own dreams, she is offered her own TV show. Her decision to not share this information with her husband will cause all sorts of different kinds of reverberations. Will wedding bells ring and is that howling coming from the wolves outside or the wife inside when her husband discovers that his precious wife is holding back her own secrets?
Take a Taste:
There was a photo album her mother had sent. Cass’s mother had been a serious scrapbooker all of Cass’s life and the digital revolution had hit her hard. She just could not give up her deckle edged scissors, so her children still received fussily decorated scrapbooks several times a year. She set the stack of bills aside and turned her attention to the other package. It had been shipped to a C Nelson c/o a post office box. Cass wasn’t aware of having a PO box. Maybe it just automatically happened when you moved here, she thought.
She used a spare key that was deep in the recesses of her bag to slit open the paper tape. Digging through the packing peanuts she spied something that was bright blue. She reached in and to her amazement was pulling a small bright blue paddle out of the box when the passenger door swung open. She stuffed the vividly colored contraband back into the box with such force that she broke though the bottom of the parcel. She had unleashed a torrent of static ridden packing peanuts that suddenly seemed to fill up the jeep.
“What’s in the box?” queried her mother in law.
Cass tossed the box over her shoulder. It arced, leaking like a rocket shedding jet fuel , into the back seat. Cassandra spat out a packing peanut. As per usual when she was caught off guard she began to babble.
“Mom sent me a scrapbook you can’t see it now. I’ll show you later, but I’ll definitely show you later. Nothing to hide.” She cackled like a lunatic of criminal intent. “Or maybe the cake pans were in here. I’m not sure. Something was in there. But it really doesn’t matter. We have to get home right now!”
Hazel was deep in her own thoughts and barely seemed to notice the bizarre behavior of her daughter in law. Cass was unsure how she would distract her mother in law long enough to smuggle into the lodge the S&M contraband that she had apparently been too drunk to know she was having delivered to the PO box that she didn’t know that she had. She needn’t have worried.
Hazel said,”Oh I forgot to put clean towels in cabin 2, I’ll unload the jeep later” and nearly threw herself out of the still moving jeep as soon as they were through the open gates of the lodge.
Yeah, I know what is going on. And I can guess what is going to happy. Can you???

“…Trying to ease my ache.”
THIS IS FROM, NEWLY ACCEPTED WIP.
TAMING TEXANNA by Alyssa Bailey
Scene set up: So Texanna wakes up after her husband has left the bed to start the day. The evening has been spent as most newlyweds spend them. Texanna had just finished reliving the whole spanking sex scene and it gets exciting. Again.
Something shifted in the room and it yanked Texanna from her memories from last night to the present. She was aware of how slippery she was and it accompanied the ache that was now gnawing at her very core. She wanted to delve her fingers into her own trove and play with the trinkets. Before she was married, she had not known the delights this part of her body held but now, there was no going back. She inched her fingers down and was just slipping into her needy channel when the door opened up.
She looked up at her husband with her hand occupied in between her legs. He closed the door.
“Texanna Rae, what are you doing to yourself under that quilt?” His voice was stern but his eyes twinkled and she stared at his face as a hot flush rushed up and burned her cheeks.
“I, um, nothing,” she said as she tried to carefully remove her hand from its playground undetected. Hearing him and seeing his amused face tingled her core further flushing her face hotter.
“I would say you’re fibbing and you know what happens to young ladies who fib.”
“No, really, I’m not doing anything.”
“Uh huh. Well, I’m going to lift the blankets and see if there is anything you forgot to mention.”
“No. I mean, I’ll be cold.” She was still trying to find a way to remove her hand without notice.
“Well, let me see how you are after last night.” His eyes were full of mirth and Texanna groaned in her defeat.
“Fine, I was trying to ease my ache.”
“You were? Well, let me ease your ache for you but first I’m going to spank your bottom.”
“What?”
“You need a few swats so that you won’t touch my toys without my permission.”
“But it is my body and you never said I shouldn’t,” she teased back seeing his grin.
She could feel the honey slide down from her intimate places and shivered with anticipation when Colton lifted a corner of the bedding and placed his big, warm hands on her damp muff. “See, a woman who is this wet without her husband must have been naughty and needs a spanking. Roll over.”
She did as he asked and he set about roasting her bottom as she grew more aroused.
Colt didn’t touch any other part of her tantalizing body aside from the stinging smacks he rubbed slowly into her heated and reddening bottom. He then instructed her to pull up on her knees so her bottom was high in the air with her pink jewels glistening in his view. He sat a bit further back and then told her, “Play with yourself.”
She half rolled over and looked at him, eyes wide and mouth open.
“What?”
He slapped her thigh and the side of her buttocks hard then began the soothing. “Do as I tell you. Get back into position. Touch yourself like I touch you. I want to watch you pleasure yourself.” When she didn’t move, he slapped the other cheek.
Slowly she slid her knees back into place and put her hand on her clit. She rolled and rubbed her button as she felt the total exposure of her bottom to Colton. She had never realized how excited she would be in this position doing what she was doing with her husband watching her. It felt naughty and embarrassing but it also made her spill her juices even more than earlier.
“So beautiful, honey. You’re perfect for me,” he announced as she rocked rhythmically.
He moved directly behind her and leaned in with his tongue tasting her goodness as she took deep, gasping breaths trying to control her body’s reactions to the bombarding of her senses.
“Stop, Colt. I can’t last.” She gritted her teeth in her attempt to keep from flying apart.
He licked her inner lips, bit her inner thighs, and licked a trail to her pleasure center. “Let it go, honey.”
He slapped her tortured bits lightly and she cried out in the ecstasy only a fulfilled woman could do, her face buried in the pillow to muffle the cries.
He leaned down to murmur in her ear, “I love you, Texanna Rae McFadden. To the ends of the earth and back.”
Texanna looked at Colton and smiled with her dreamy expression and her sleepy eyes. “I love you more, she announced as she rolled over to snuggle into the still warm bed.
COMING SOON …
Alyssa Bailey is a dyed in the wool Texan living in the beauty of Southeast Alaska with her husband, her youngest four (of eleven) children, two dogs and two cats. She lives where the sky meets the mountains, the mountains meet the ocean, and the wildlife frolic on land, sea, and air. People, the ultimate interlopers, are wedged in where allowed and are properly thankful for the privilege.
Her first memory of books was when her mother read to her as a small child. She began writing as soon as she could put letters together to form words. Her first story at the age of six was about a performing horse that ran away from the circus. As she got older and read more of a variety of books, she would say, “I can do better than that” and then rewrite them in her head. She was writing fanfiction before fanfiction was a ‘thing.’
In high school and college, she won journalism and special recognition for her academic and fictional writing. Alyssa is a firm believer in all things spanking. She loves writing about domestic discipline and power exchanges between strong, intelligent women who are not afraid to make a stand and men confident enough to give them their space but Alpha enough to keep his woman safe, in spite of herself. Her characters predominately live in Regency England amongst lords and ladies, in the contemporary realm amongst men and women of the world, and all things Cowboy
