What Are People Saying About Daddy’s Game?

“An edgy but powerful erotic character piece about the emotional and sexual-dominance relationship between footballer Natron and artist Carmen. Written with great character depth and chemistry this novel explores a lot about the needs and desires of its protagonists while featuring hot, steamy and kinky sex.” ~ 5 Star Review from Amazon Top 500 Reviewer Christopher Fischer


“Normandie has done it again! … The sex scenes in this book are off the chain and be forewarned HOT AS HELL!!” ~ 5 Stars from Samaris, Amazon


“Daddy’s Game is an excellent novel that will keep you on your toes with a well written story line, fantastic characters, and drama galore. If you enjoy Daddy/little girl aspects then Daddy’s Game won’t disappoint.” ~ 5 Stars Felicity of Mad Wonderland Reviews


“Daddy’s Game is a great sports romance with an enticing Daddy Dom/little girl relationship as the backdrop. Natron is a larger than life, charismatic hero. He entertains us as he deals with adversity, and he’s a caring Dom to Carmen, though sometimes he does go a little off track. For her part, talented artist Carmen is a good submissive and the lucky recipient of Natron’s considerable attentions. She blossoms with her creative Daddy who has a penchant for erotic games. There were times in the book when I wasn’t sure if Natron was going to be able to pull it all together, but the ending made all my concerns vanish. I would highly recommend this book to anyone looking for a romantic BDSM story.” ~ 5 Stars from Anari, Amazon


“You know if a man is hot enough to make you scream Daddy, that he is HOT! And in this book Natron doesn’t disappoint. Maybe Natron should have been named Nuclear because he is a time bomb waiting to go off. I will definitely be checking out more from this author.”  ~ 5 Stars from Suzanne Steele, Amazon

Excerpt from Daddy’s Game

She sensed his presence behind her before she felt his hands on her waist.


“I’ve been trying to be good, but you’re so sexy. I can’t resist you, babygirl.”


A wave of desire thrilled through her as his hands skimmed over her belly and he started unbuttoning her jean shorts. Her knees almost buckled and she held onto his forearms for support.


“But…” was the only protest she could muster.


“But I think you have on too many clothes,” he said slipping her shorts down to her ankles.


Feeling dizzy she turned to steady herself and found herself in his arms. When she lifted her face to his, he claimed her mouth, hungrily sliding his tongue between her lips. The electricity between them ramped up a notch, and for a moment she allowed herself the pleasure of letting go and relishing what it felt like to be in his arms.


He stepped back and lifted her t-shirt over her head.


It made her uncomfortable to be half-naked in front of him and she instinctively covered her breasts with her hands.  Carmen believed most men preferred a thinner woman, and she was self-conscious about her voluptuous figure. She weighed at least thirty pounds more than the models on the magazine covers she saw every week at the grocery store check-out line.


“What are you doing? Stop. I want to see you.” He pulled her hands away, firmly placing them at her sides.


She felt the warmth rising in her cheeks. “I’m embarrassed.”


He smiled and shook his head. “Girl, you don’t know how good you look, do you?”


“Well, I…I just need to lose a few pounds,” she stammered.


“Lose a few pounds my ass! You’re beautiful. I love your curves. I don’t need an anorexic woman. I want a girl who knows how to live, how to eat,” he said, wrapping his arms around her again. “How to love.”


He scooped her up like a bride about to cross the threshold and started climbing the stairs.


Panic rose in her throat. “Natron, you can’t. Please! You’ll drop me.”


He merely chuckled. “You don’t know how strong I am. I’m not gonna drop you.”


“But Natron, what are you doing?”


“What do you think I’m doing? Takin’ you to bed.”


“But, but…it’s so fast.” The alarm bells that had been going off in her head waned. His persuasive charms were quickly overriding her concerns, and she longed to give in to him.


“When I see what I want I have to have it. And right now what I want is you.” He nuzzled her neck, nibbling his way around her earlobe.


The words “right now” stuck in her head. Okay, so he wanted her now, but what about afterwards? Would he want her later or would she be just another conquest for the big football star?


When he reached the top of the stairs he tossed her on the bed and proceeded to take off the rest of his clothes. As he stood there in all his naked glory, Carmen drew a ragged breath. He was gorgeous.


Good Lord he must have to work out constantly to look like that and still eat pizza. His body was rock hard, every muscle well-defined. He even had that sexy Apollo’s belt that made that deep “v” leading directly to his enormous cock. As impressive as the rest of him was, it was impossible for her not to stare at his erection jutting out proudly before him.


“Now it’s your turn,” he tugged at her panties.


“Natron, I don’t know. Maybe this isn’t such a good idea…”


He pursed his lips. “Alright then, let’s play a game instead.”


She closed her legs, eyeing him skeptically. “What kind of game?”


“I call it ‘Everything But’,” he said.


“What do you do?” The game sounded rather self-explanatory, but she was stalling for time.


“You get naked and we can do everything but have sex. No penetration. Just foolin’ around. No harm in that, is there?”

Spotlight: Wicked Seduction: A Victorian Ménage at the Parisian Exposition by Kristabel Reed

Normandie


Blog Tour for Wicked Seduction MenageToday I’m welcoming Kristabel Reed on the blog tour for her new release Wicked Seduction. At the end of the tour Kristabel will be awarding a $25 Amazon or BN gift card to a randomly drawn winner via rafflecopter during the tour, and a PDF of one of Kristabel’s back list, winner’s choice, to a randomly drawn host. You can enter to win in the Rafflecopter below, and click on the tour banner above to take you to a list of tour dates.


Wicked Seduction

She came to the Parisian Fair for adventure…what she found far exceeded her every expectation. Sex and adventure abound, and Victoria is caught up in the bliss she, Edmund, and Warren create. She wants more, craves it, but is terrified of the consequences. Scandal is around every corner; when she meets one head on will she flee? Or will she realize the power of her ménage is stronger than merely sex?


Excerpt

Try as she might, all Victoria clearly knew was that doing this, taking this step, was her decision.


The crowds began to thin, and she roused herself. Eleven at night, and the fair finally closed for the day. She watched them leave, watched the couples and groups of friends, the laughing men and chattering women stream past her. Planning to join them on their way out of the fair, she started when a deep male voice addressed her.


“Miss,” the man said and Victoria whirled to face him. “We noticed you were on your own here. Would you care for an escort to your companions? Or,” the man added with a knowing spark in his eye, “to the gate or a hackney?”


Victoria looked between the man, tall, very handsome with dark hair and deep eyes, and his blonde, younger companion who stood silently, but not docilely, beside him. A warmth moved through her at the sight of them but she tried to dismiss it.


“I’ve no companion this evening,” she admitted.


“May we then escort you to your hotel?” the younger man offered.


“Forgive me,” the older man said and bowed deeply. “I’m Warren Blackfield and this is my associate, Edmund Garrison.”


The younger man bowed as well and murmured, “A pleasure.”


“Victoria,” she began then stopped short of offering her surname. The two men sounded English, very proper, dressed in the finest Saville Row had to offer, but she enjoyed her anonymity here, and wished to maintain it.


“Victoria…?” Edmund asked.


“Just Victoria,” she repeated.

Daddy’s Embarrassing Inspection #DungeonCrawl #BDSM

Normandie


DungeonCrawl


Welcome to the Dungeon Crawl, a weekly blog hop for lovers of BDSM! Today I’m sharing more from my latest book – Daddy’s Game. In this passage Natron is introducing his new girl Carmen to the wonderful world of dominance and submission. Last time Natron told Carmen to bend over and grab her ankles.


Excerpt

This flustered her. “What?” she asked, clearly stalling.


“I’m going to inspect you.”


“For what?” she asked, leaning over hesitantly.


“My pleasure.”


“I’m not sure I can grab my ankles. I’m not very flexible.”


“Hmm. You might want to work on some daily stretches then. But for now grab your legs as low as you can go.”


“Yes, sir,” she said and grabbed her lower calves.


He cupped her sex with his hand, and he could feel the heat coming from her most intimate region. Smacking her pussy a few times elicited a small cry from Carmen, and he could tell it was the first time anyone had ever done that to her.


Breaking in a virgin to BDSM was an intoxicating experience. No one would need drugs or alcohol when an experience like this was available.


She had the most delectable ass with such pretty pink folds blushing against her creamy pale skin. Her beauty made his heart lurch, and he caressed her ass, her warm globes feeling heavenly under his touch. When he spread her cheeks to inspect her asshole, her whole body tensed.


“Relax,” he said.


“That’s easy for you to say,” she muttered.


He laughed. “The point is for you to trust me, become comfortable with me exploring your body.”


“It’s embarrassing,” she whined.


“It shouldn’t be. I want your body to belong to me. Everything about it is beautiful. Allow me to enjoy it. Do you think you can do that?”


“I guess so.”


“Did you mean to say ‘Yes, sir’?” he prodded.


“Yes, sir,” she said, sounding like a chastised schoolgirl.


“That’s more like it,” he said, spanking her ass before wetting his thumb between his lips, then slowly inserting it into her rear entry. She flinched, but remained silent.


“Good girl.”

After the Spanking #SatSpanks from Daddy’s Game

Normandie


Saturday Spanking


Welcome back to Saturday Spankings! Today on #SatSpanks I’m sharing more from a scene from my latest release, Daddy’s Game.


This snippet occurs just after Natron spanks Carmen in the backseat of the car (last week’s #SatSpanks).


Carmen squirmed and protested, but he repeated the process several times until her ass cheeks were hot to the touch and her cunt was dripping with her juices.


When they arrived home, they didn’t even make it to the bedroom. Once they got inside Natron’s entry hall, he unbuckled his pants and let them slide to the floor. He picked her up and pressed her against the wall. “Lock your legs around my waist.”


She encircled him with her thighs, and his erection pulsed hard against her mound. He re-adjusted, then in one swift move, sheathed his cock inside her slick welcoming walls. He pushed himself deep into her, captured her mouth, and they danced the dance he’d been fantasizing about all night.

Babygirl Gets a Backseat Spanking #SatSpanks

Normandie


Saturday Spankings


Welcome back to Saturday Spankings! As we’re preparing for Father’s Day tomorrow, I’m sharing more from a scene from my latest release, Daddy’s Game.


In this snippet Natron and Carmen have gone out to dinner, and now they’re in the backseat of Natron’s car and he just told Carmen not to pay any attention to the driver.


Natron hugged her torso with one arm and skimmed her magnificent round globes with the other. He investigated her pussy with his fingers. “Damn, you’re wet, girl.”


She made a whiny noise and wiggled in his grasp.


“I’m not sure you should be this aroused, little girl. You may need a spanking.”


Her muffled cry indicated to him that she disagreed, but he took aim and swatted her lovely rear end anyway.


He entered her pussy with his finger. “Still wet. Better try again,” he said, then smacked her hind end.

Chapter One

Carmen’s stomach turned over, and she searched the office for a wastebasket in case she needed to throw up. The idea of people viewing her artwork made her queasy. She knew she was supposed to be proud of it, to want to show it off—but she didn’t.


She was terrified.


What if it sucked? What if people hated it, laughed at it even? Then there was the possibility nobody would show up. The idea of that made her feel worse.


Knock! Knock!


That sinking feeling grew and she wondered who could be at the door. Carmen had barricaded herself in the office that belonged to Gustav, the gallery director. She’d slunk down on the floor, now practically hidden behind his desk.


Gustav had called for her to come out twice, but she’d refused, mumbling something about feeling sick. He must think she was nuts.


She sat on the cold tile floor, hugging her knees and ignoring the knock at the door, willing the interloper away. Eventually, whoever it was retreated.


Pretending to be invisible, Carmen listened for signs of how the event was going. The occasional laugh drifted over the walls, and the sound of glasses clinking together punctuated the dull hum of conversation. At least some people were here, but unfortunately, she had no way of knowing what their reactions were to her art, and clearly Gustav had given up on forcing her to be sociable.


Before tonight, her artwork had been private. She’d sold paintings to friends, given them as gifts, and this past year she’d even branched out to selling on Etsy, the online store for handmade items. Her New Year’s resolution six months ago had been to take her passion for her artwork and turn it into a business. However, when she’d made that goal, she hadn’t anticipated the terror she would feel when faced with showing her artwork to the public. The idea of strangers judging her made her feel naked and exposed; after all, her artwork was a piece of her. A ripple of nausea moved through her stomach and beads of perspiration formed along her hairline.


I will not be sick. I will not be sick.


Another knock at the door. “Carmen! Carmen, are you in there?” Gustav’s voice was tight and high-pitched, as though he’d been pushed to his limit. “I have clients out here who would like to meet you. Important clients.”


Oh, God, just what she needed. Having to smile and make nice while trying not to vomit on Gustav’s VIP clients. She rose on shaky legs and smoothed back her unruly curls. Adjusting her crimson-colored dress, she strode over to the door. “Just a second.”


Breathing deeply, she opened the door to find Gustav nervously holding court, a crowd gathered around him.


“Oh, I… I didn’t realize…” Carmen gulped. She’d expected Gustav to have one client with him, perhaps a couple. The group of fifteen or more people intimidated her.


While there were over a dozen people in the crowd, Gustav introduced her to only one. “Carmen, this is Natron Dakers. Natron, this is Carmen Harris, our star of the evening.”


Carmen shook hands with the tall black man. His hand swallowed hers, his grip firm but not painful. She was about to protest Gustav’s labeling her a star, when it hit her—this was Natron Dakers. The famous wide receiver for the Dallas Vipers. Last season’s MVP and spokesperson for more products than Carmen could count. The man had his own shoe line, his own cologne, even his own toothpaste. Her three younger brothers couldn’t shut up about him.


“Like the red. Nice choice,” Natron indicated her dress.


“Oh, thank you.” Dark red, color of the Vipers. Of course he’d like it.


“Excuse me, I see someone I simply must say hello to,” Gustav said before rushing off. Carmen stepped into the larger gallery space with Natron at her side. The rest of the group melted into the background and Carmen realized most of the hip-looking crowd were part of Natron’s entourage.


“I really like your work.” Natron scanned the large portraits that hung in the gallery before resting his eyes on her. “I’d like to cover my walls with your paintings.”


“You would?”


He laughed. “Yeah, you seem surprised.”


“I just, well… this is my first time showing my work. In public.” She snatched a glass of champagne off the tray of a passing waiter for her dry mouth, forgetting her stomach troubles.


“Get out!” He nudged her playfully on the shoulder with his fist. “Girl, looks like you’ve been doing this all your life.” His long, trademark dreads bounced when he moved and Carmen couldn’t help but notice how handsome he was with his gleaming white teeth and kind, gorgeous brown eyes.


She found her lips relaxing into a grin. “No, this is all new to me.” She leaned toward him conspiratorially. “I’ve been kinda nervous, if you must know the truth.”


“Well, you’ve got no reason to be nervous.” He gestured to the large group of patrons crammed into the gallery. “Apparently you’re a hit.”


She should have been offering up some fabulous sales pitch to him, but something about his warmth made her confide in him instead. “But who knows what they think? Maybe they hate it.”


He raised a brow skeptically. “Girl, you gotta be kidding me. These are some happy people, look at ‘em. They like it.” He nodded, emphasizing his point. “I like it.”


The tension in her shoulders lessened, and she could feel her upper arm muscles relax. “Are you a collector?” she asked in an attempt to shift the focus away from herself.


“Nah. But I’ve been thinking of investing in some art. My agent, he’s friends with Gustav, so I thought I’d stop by, check it out.”


She nodded. “What kind of art speaks to you?”


“Shoot, girl, I dunno, but I know it when I see it. My mamma took me to museums when I was comin’ up, but I didn’t pay any attention. She wouldn’t let me bring my ball inside, so I was usually pouting and counting the minutes ‘til I could get back to playin’ ball.”


“Really? You wanted to bring your ball?”


“Yeah. Guess they didn’t want me breaking something in those fancy places so I always had to leave the ball outside.”


“Ah, your football.”


“Any kind of ball. Basketball was my first love. Dribbled everywhere I went. Mamma says I slept with my basketball from the time I was a year old.” He paused and let his million-dollar grin spread from ear to ear. “Guess it worked out for me.”


“I’ll say,” Carmen said. Natron was cocky, hovering close to arrogance. But hell, if she was as big a superstar as he was, who knew how she’d behave?


“You’re pretty cute, ya know that?” Natron winked at her and suddenly she felt as though she were the only woman in the room.


Her heart fluttered in her chest and her cheeks must have flushed the color of her dress. He was flirting with her! Unable to keep the corners of her mouth from giving her away, she looked away, flustered.


He elbowed her lightly in the ribs. “Whatcha doin’ afterwards?”


“Oh, I’m, uh, I have to help clean up,” she stammered, wondering why she was lying.


“Me and my friends here, we’re going out for dinner, maybe have a little fun. You’re welcome to come with us.”


“I couldn’t, but thank you anyway.” The idea of going out with Natron and his posse was overwhelming, surreal. His friends were chic and radiated an aura of nonchalant cool that Carmen had never been able to master. And while she couldn’t see herself doing that, the invitation was flattering nonetheless.


“Suit yourself,” he shrugged. “I’m goin’ to talk to Gustav about gettin’ some of your work, though.”


“Please do,” she said, hoping she didn’t sound like she was begging.


Natron backed away from her. “I will. You’re a talented girl, Carmen Harris. I’ll be watching you.” He made a box with his fingers, then blew them apart as if there’d been an explosion. “Breakout star right here.” With another wink, he turned and gathered his crew.

Daddy Finds A Flogger #BDSM #DungeonCrawl

Normandie


Training in the DungeonWelcome to the Dungeon Crawl, a weekly blog hop for lovers of BDSM! Today I’m sharing more from my new release – Daddy’s Game. In this passage Natron is introducing his new girl Carmen to the wonderful world of dominance and submission. Visit last week for the prelude. Our hero has just gone looking for an implement of some sort.


Excerpt

The closet, which was the size of most people’s guest rooms, housed several drawers specifically for toys of the adult variety.


Hmm. What to choose. Looking over the various options, he chose a long black leather flogger. Being that this was the first time he would be doing this with Carmen, he opted for one with a lighter sting. His intention was not to blister her, but to introduce her to the idea of submission. Picking it up, he appreciated the feel of the leather and the weight of it in his hand. He would enjoy flogging her with it.


When he came back into the bedroom, her eyes flew to the leather whip in his hand and its mini tails.


“I’m going to flog you for two reasons. First, because it will introduce you to what it’s like to submit to my will. I know it might be scary, but I will not hurt you. If you feel like it’s hurting too badly, you may use your safeword. Second, because it will bring the blood to the surface of your skin and potentially increase your arousal by raising your endorphin levels, which can make things more pleasurable.”


“Okay,” she said with a determined stare.


Good. He liked a girl with gumption, and he needed one with staying power.


With the flip of his wrist he brought the first strike down on the alabaster skin of her back. The leather made a soft thudding sound as it made contact with her flesh.


She flinched, but otherwise seemed intact.


He let fly another stroke of the whip. And another until he developed a pattern that ran from her buttocks up her torso, up one side then down the other. The smell of leather wafted through the air as he pulled his arm back to prepare for the next blow, and the welcome sound of pleasure rose from her lips.


“You like that, babygirl?” he crooned.


“I do. It doesn’t really hurt. More like a little sting, but it feels good.”


“That’s it, baby. Go with it.”


“Yes, sir.”


He raked the tails across her backside until her skin began to pinken. At that point he set the flogger down and stood behind her.


“Now back up a step and lean over and grab your ankles.”

Daddy’s Game

Sparks fly when up-and-coming artist Carmen Harris meets football star Natron Dakers at her first gallery opening. Carmen soon discovers that Natron is the type of man who sees what he wants and goes after it… and apparently what he wants is her. Almost before she knows it Carmen finds herself taking everything Natron gives her and begging for more, and when he reveals that he wants to be her dominant daddy and her to be his submissive little girl, she doesn’t hesitate to agree.


At the top of his profession, Natron has money, fame, and all the perks that go with them, and now at last in Carmen he has found a woman he wants to share it with. His life feels complete… until in a split second everything comes crashing down when a devastating injury threatens to end his season—and maybe his career. Natron fears he will lose it all, but will he self-destruct or can he dig deep and fight hard for himself, his teammates, and his little girl?
