RULES OF COMMAND - release day info, a naughty excerpt, + a contest!

Today is release day for Rules of Command ! I think I'll start out with the good stuff - a steamy excerpt from the book:

Heat flared between them as she stopped at his feet and her gaze traveled up to meet his. She was vulnerable and lovely, his little wife. Her lips parted, and the genuine apology that followed stole his breath away once again.

"I am terribly sorry for mocking your title, husband, and for cursing when I know you don’t approve. Please . . . forgive me."

He hauled her up from the floor, gathering her in his arms. "You’re forgiven, princess." He pressed his lips to her forehead, sealing his forgiveness with a kiss. "I meant what I said about taking my belt to you. If you grossly defy me, I won’t hesitate to administer a punishment more severe than a simple hand spanking."

"I understand."

"Good."

John’s cock nudged against her stomach. His hands raked up and down her back as the temperature in the room seemed to rise ten degrees. They had spoken their vows, but now he would claim her fully as his wife. His pulse increased, all the nerve endings in his body on high alert, sizzling in anticipation. She leaned into him, her hands tentatively touching his waist, the bare skin above his boxers. He cupped her bottom, squeezing just hard enough to draw a moan from her throat. Burying his head in her neck, he trailed kisses from her collarbone up to her ear, delighting in the shudders that followed each brush of his lips to her exposed flesh. Her responsiveness spurred him to work faster, and he divested her of the pajama top in a whoosh of fabric falling to the floor.

With each touch, each kiss, he walked her backwards until her legs hit the bed. He pushed her to sit on the edge and knelt on the floor, draping her legs over his shoulders. A groan rumbled from his throat as he focused on her pussy, splaying her lips apart.

"Pretty and pink," he murmured. "Just as I imagined."

He glanced up in time to see her face flush with embarrassment. Jealously, he wondered how many other men had possessed her. Judging from her innate shyness, it could not have been many. Blowing lightly on her clit, he returned his attention to her intimate folds. Her clit pulsed and she arched her back in invitation. He flicked his tongue over her engorged nub.

"Oh!" She jumped.

"You taste divine, princess." He spread her juices around with one finger. Her pussy glistened under his attention. With precise motions, he flicked her pulsing clit as he breathed against her hot center. She was so wet, so ready, and he could hardly wait to sink his cock deep inside her warmth. But first, he wanted her panting. Throbbing and aching for him to fill her up.

He pushed the hood of her hardened nub back and felt her shudder as he lapped over the extra sensitive spot. She writhed on the bed, moaning and arching up to beg for more. Musky and sweet, her scent drove him wild with need and a deep satisfaction that tensed his balls and made his cock harden further. He drew back to gaze upon her swollen clit. It had grown under his attentions, and he planned to make it grow more still. Sealing his lips over her gleaming, pink button, he sucked with an intensity that made her frantic with need. Her hands pounded into the bed, her legs thrashed around his neck, and her keening whimpers threaded with the word please filled the room. A grin of satisfaction spread across his face as he broke the suction on her nub. Oh yes, she was ready. So sweet, so hot, and so ready to accept his cock deep between her thighs. This was much better than forcing her. Much better than ordering her to lie still because it was her wifely duty.

"Beautiful," he said. "Now, your clit is all swollen and red, just like your bottom."


Rules of Command blurb:

His prisoner...his wife...his passion.

Love is the last thing on Commander John Rousseau's mind when he claims an American woman as his wife. He's simply following orders - although he is drawn to Emma's soft skin and sweet nature, despite her outspoken reluctance to accept him as her husband. Determined to tame her, he promises to spank her for disobedience, and she soon finds out he's a man of his word.

As Emma comes to grips with her marriage to a strict Free Island soldier and struggles to obey his many rules, she finds her heart softening to him. John holds her at a distance at first, but as the passion between them flares, a deep intimacy and mutual trust takes root. An impending battle finally prompts confessions of love...but will it be too late for these unlikely lovers?

Note: Rules of Command is a companion book to Rules of War . It's the same story, completely rewritten, with some different scenes, told from John's point of view. It's an erotic romance with spanking and elements of bdsm.

Rules of Command is available on Amazon US, Amazon UK, and Barnes and Noble.
