#SPeekSunday - 5/31/15 - Past Interference - Two guards for a frightend princess #CorbinsBend #Romance


It's Sneak Peek Sunday!  Yay!  And I'm sharing an excerpt from my new spanking novella in the Corbin's Bend series, Past Interferencethe sequel to A Simple Misunderstanding. Past Interference is part of the Corbin's Bend Valentine's Day collection "Love in the Rockies," and is not being sold separately.

What she needed was the opposite of what she wanted.


In this scene, which occurs near the beginning of Chapter Three, Eleanor Benson (Elly) is six days away from getting married again, and her doubts are eating her alive.  After suffering through a bout of stress-related migraines, she's finally gotten up enough courage to tell her husband-to-be that she's not sure she wants to get married.  Jerry knows Elly is nervous, but believed he'd managed to convince her he is nothing at all like her first husband, Arthur, who abused her.  Unfortunately, when he realizes Elly  still thinks he will turn into an abusive monster once they're married, despite all his gentle reassurances, his hurt pride causes him to snap at her in anger before he returns to his vet clinic next door. Elly realizes she's made a serious mistake, but has no idea how to fix things between them, so she decides to go for a walk, hoping the crisp, winter air will help clear her head. As she tromps through the Colorado snow, she recalls the last time her abusive ex-husband attempted to confront her. Jerry and Brent were with her then, and Jerry promptly went into his protective mode, which Brent, as leader of the community and a former police officer, quickly overrode by informing Arthur Benson his wife had filed a restraining order against him.


“You two won’t always be around to play palace guard to her pitiful princess, and I will have my say,” Benson retorted.
“Fine. I’m sure the judge will be delighted to review your case, after you’re dragged back for breaking parole.”
Though Brent spoke softly, the menace in his tone was unmistakable. He might be dressed like a businessman, but his threat carried the weight of a true police officer. Once a cop, always a cop wasn’t only a saying. It was a mantra.
“Good-bye, sweet Eleanor. I shall see you again someday. I promise.” After offering a mock salute, Arthur Benson turned and left. His words might sound innocent enough, but the meaning behind them was not. Jerry and Brent exchanged a meaningful glance that broke when Elly shivered.
At the slight shake of Brent’s head, Jerry drew Elly into his arms. “Okay fine,” he spoke over her head to Brent. “Now’s not the time, but tell me, how was he able to do that? I thought you were having him watched.”
“I was. However, we don’t posts guards at the entrance to the community. He probably parked some distance away and walked back. That was unfortunate, but we won’t let him get to you, Elly,” Brent reassured as he placed a hand on her shoulder. “Arthur can’t bother you anymore. Now come on. Let’s get your things.”

 

Elly felt surrounded by Jerry's love then, and now she fears she may have ruined the best thing that ever happened to her.



M/F Domestic Discipline in Colorado.

Blurb:

Valentine's Day in Corbin's Bend.  As Elly Benson readies herself for her second wedding, the doubts and misgivings of any new bride-to-be are exacerbated by the abuse she suffered during her first marriage.

Though she's lived with Jerry Douglas for four months now, and been subject to his discipline more than once, Elly's first husband had been kind and careful with her, too, until the day she vowed to love, honor and obey him.  The lessons she's learned from the past make her doubt she can ever find happiness in the future.

#SatSpanks - 5/30/15 - Mortal Illusions - Council sanctioned torture #Paranormal #Vampires





Show me an angry vampire, and I'll show you an unhappy mortal.

NOTE: Reading this material at Work could get you spanked.

Welcome to the Saturday Spankings blog hop.  My stories are all M/f with the dominant male determined to protect the woman he cares for and loves, or grows to love, by doing whatever it takes to ensure her safety and continued health.  This includes administering a spanking when she needs one.
  
My submission for this week is from my 1st book, Mortal Illusions. A vampire romance published by New Concepts Publishing, Mortal Illusions is currently the first in a series of 3 books.  Its sequel, Fatal Desire, is currently being revised.

When Claire Daniels discovers Germaine St. Justine is a vampire, she sets a plan in motion to convince him to cure her brother of AIDS.  Though an innocent in sexual relations, Claire is savvy enough to realize the best way to secure Germaine's support is to enter into an intimate relationship with him.  However, having a vampire take you to bed isn't quite the same as sleeping with the boy next door.  There are complications. And Germaine is dominant enough to add a few more Claire hadn't expected.



In this segment, Claire and Phillipa are witnessing the trial of Sybill, a mortal female accused of approaching another group for the purpose of requesting transformation.  A procedure which Germaine's group expressly forbids.  In addition, she was observed relating vampire activities to an outsider, and going so far as to encourage her companion to seek out the mortal constabulary. The vampire responsible for Sybill claims to know nothing about her illicit activities and effectively removes his protection, leaving her fate for Germaine's council to decide. However, when the men move in to tie the other woman down to keep her from hurting herself, Claire starts to get very worried.


             “Hurting herself?  Why would she want to hurt herself?”  When Phillipa didn't answer, Claire started toward Sybill, but Phillipa stopped her by grabbing her arm.  Yanking free, Claire turned to glare at her friend.  “How can you just stand by and watch them torture her?”
            “I didn't say I watched--I just don't interfere.  Look, Claire, if it were you up there, I'd fight like a tigress to save you.  But for that she-devil, I wouldn't raise my little finger.  She's more likely to stab you in the back than thank you for your efforts.  And if you were to help her, you'd most likely end up taking her place.”
            “If Arthur has his way about things, that's exactly where I will end up.  I'm sorry, but I can't let them do this.  Not without a protest at least.”


Claire is discovering just how different vampires are from mortals. Afraid she's fallen in love with a man who will only break her heart, she's about to learn how dangerous her position actually is.

M/F, Contemporary vampire romance in a society based on D/s.

Frisky Friday - 5/29/15 - Arrested by Love - Maybe it isn't the flu #DD #SpankingRomance


He caught her speeding in a school zone and decided she needed to learn even civil disobedience could have very painful consequences.

Another Friday, another excerpt to launch you into your weekend.  For this Frisky Friday I am sharing a bit from my 3rd book, Arrested by Love.  A handsome, but strict, police officer decides a spoiled socialite needs a special lesson in obeying the law.


Tiffany Morgan has been in love with Kyle Sinclair since she was ten years old, when he'd turned her over his knee for attempting to swim in a raging white water river. Though she'd been furious with him at the time, Tiffany never told her family what Kyle did. Instead, she began trailing after him like an annoying younger sister as she tried to gain his attention.

Now, eleven years later, Kyle, a patrol officer, is finding it much more difficult to maintain his distance from the irresistible and vivacious redhead who continues to invent ingenious ways to attract his interest. Though he dismissed her initial attraction to him as infatuation, as she grew-up, his own feelings of desire and protectiveness deepened. So, despite his constant struggle to resist the spirited little minx's lures, Kyle finally has to admit that he is losing the battle--badly.


The following section occurs about two-thirds through the book, and in it Tiffany isn't feeling the least bit frisky at the moment.  Kyle and Tiffany have been separated for several weeks.  She's refusing to see him after catching him in a lie, and her family has circled the wagons around her.  Recently, Kyle learned Tiffany isn't doing well, so he decides to conduct a stake out near her home when he spots the family leaving the house.  Tiffany is so weak, she can barely stand by herself.  His protective instincts rushing to the fore, Kyle promptly intervenes. His presence seems to rally Tiffany's low spirits, even if it's only for a show of anger, so her father allows it, but informs Kyle if Tiffany prefers to be back home, he will do everything in his power to get her back.  Kyle doesn't expect anything less as he carries Tiffany to his car and drives her to the doctor. Once there, he takes full control by carrying Tiffany into an examination room.


            "Let's have a look at her first.  Go ahead and get her Mr. Sinclair.  I'll wait here."
            "Thank you."  Kyle walked back to pick Tiffany up again.  She started to protest, but he shook his head.  "Quiet.  We're going to take you back to an examination room now.  So, relax."
            Tiffany glanced over at Nancy who gave her a smile then led them into a small examining room.  Kyle carefully laid her down on the examining table, and pressed lightly on her chest when she tried to sit up.  "You just stay there for a few minutes."  Then Kyle walked to the other side and held Tiffany's hand while the nurse took Tiffany's temperature and blood pressure."
            "Temp is 98.6.  Blood pressure is 100 over 60.  A little low.  How are you feeling, Tiffany?"
            "Like I'm going to throw up all the time."
            "Headache?"
            "Yes."
            "Any other aches or pains?"
            She glanced over at Kyle, who simply nodded for her to continue.  With a sigh she said, "My breasts hurt."
            "Okay.  I'll get you a gown.  Take everything off, and Dr. Sloan will come in and see you shortly."
            "Everything?" Tiffany asked.  "But I think I just have the flu."
            Nancy nodded.  "Maybe, but I think Dr. Sloan is going to want to give you a full examination today.  It's been over a year for you, so it's time."
            Tiffany shook her head.  "No.  I mean, I don't think it's--"
            "Tiffany…." Kyle warned.  "Let's let the doctor decide, shall we?  I'll help her."
            Nancy nodded, but Tiffany tried to sit up.  "No!"
            Kyle pressed a finger to her lips and pressed her back down.  "Enough."  Tiffany scowled at him so he said to Nancy.  "Go ahead and leave us alone for a few minutes.  She'll be ready."


Tiffany is upset with Kyle, but at the moment she is so ill, even glaring at him takes more energy than she's got, but Kyle refuses to leave her side again, blaming himself for not insisting upon seeing her a lot sooner than he did.

#MFRWHooks - 5/27/15 - A Dom's Dilemma - Disobedience carries consequences #BDSM #Spanking


Erotic Torture: A pleasure so intense it borders on painful

This material is NSFW (Not Safe For Work).  If you’re not over 18, please explore elsewhere.

Welcome back to Book Hooks, a regular Wednesday feature! In this blog loop, we hope to provide you with some tantalizing tidbits in our books.


My post for this Wednesday is from my 4th book, A Dom's Dilemma, an erotic BDSM/spanking novel published by Blushing Books.  Kelly and Jim, the two main characters, were secondary characters in Arrested by Love. Though this story stands on its own, if you read Arrested by Love, you'll most likely recognize some of the scenes, since we see a little bit of Kyle and Tiffany in this book, too.



This scene in A Dom's Dilemma occurs near the beginning of Chapter Six.  Jim and Kelly are just starting to get to know each other when Jim discovers Kelly is still sore from the enema and examination he gave her a half-hour ago.  She knows that means he will want to examine and treat her, but she really wants to avoid him touching her back there again, if it's at all possible.  It isn't, but Jim compromises by making the experience as pleasurable as he can.  However, he's a Dom, so there are some rules Kelly will need to follow.  Rules like forbidding her to come until he gives his permission. The sort of rules he fully expects her to break. Of course, when she does, a good Dom needs to provide the proper discipline his sub requires and expects.


            Drawing his stroking time out a bit more, he asked, "How many swats do you think a naughty sub should get for climaxing after her Dom specifically told her not to?"  He already had a number in mind, but was curious what she thought she deserved for her disobedience.
            "Five, Sir," she answered, her butt cheeks clenching as she said it.  She really was dreading this, poor thing, which, though appropriate for the circumstances, still made him feel like he kicked at a defenseless opponent who'd already gone to ground.  Bullies did that.  And while he didn't consider himself a bully, a Dom's actions came awfully close sometimes.
            The moment he placed his left hand between her shoulder blades, she tightened her buttocks with apprehension.  She was accepting her punishment without complaint or argument, which practically obligated him to deliver it, despite the fact that he'd rather spend time soothing and petting her right now.


Jim is into control, not pain, and he wants Kelly to find pleasure in everything they do together, but the Dom in him insists upon taking the lead.  Things will happen his way, and on his terms.  End of story. Although Jim finds a great deal of satisfaction in Kelly's enthusiastic response, and her trust is of paramount importance to him, his role as a Dom requires him to hold her accountable when she disobeys. To do less would be inadequate for both of them.

A Dom's Dilemma is available for sale at Blushing Books.  If you'd like to read more, I'm providing a 3 chapter preview on my web site's Spanking Romance page.

Guest Post - 5/25/15 - "MacDermont's Bride" by Stevie MacFarlane and Keriann McKenna #Western #Spanking


Excerpt:

Annie rummaged through her suitcase for something to wear and nothing matched, but she did the best she could with what he had thrown into it.  She had just finished making the last piece of French toast when he ambled into the kitchen, rubbing his eyes and then stretching in an attempt to wake up. 
“It smells good in here,” he said as she served him coffee and then set a plate of French toast and sausage in front of him. 
“I hope you like it,” she replied as she started to eat. 
“Mmm, I do like it, thank you.  Annie we need to discuss a few things and now is as good a time as any.”  In spite of her puzzled look, between bites he laid out all the problems Chuck had mentioned.  Then he added that her car might not be fixed until the middle of the week and he would have Duncan take her to and from work. 
“Mac, first of all I don’t want to be an imposition and second, I can’t afford to have all that work done to my house,” she told him in no uncertain terms.  She knew full well he already knew her husband’s illness had run her so far into debt her credit rating might never be above 500 again.
“Darlin’, I’m not expecting you to be able to afford the work.  You agreed that you would try your best, and letting me take care of those things is part of it.  And, by the way, I don’t ever want you to feel as though you are an imposition on me or any of my staff. 
“Work with me on this will you please?”
“Okay,” Annie said and continued eating.
“Okay?  Just like that?  No arguments?”
“You’ll get no arguments from me.  Mac, I’m practicing.  Submitting is not easy for me; how am I doing so far?”
“You’re doing great.  I love it,” Mac smiled at her.
“Oh, it’s not easy.  I have a mouth full of things I want to say, not to mention the small piece of sausage that just landed on your plate while I was trying to talk and eat at the same time, but to please you; I’m keeping them to myself.”
“That works for me,” Mac said as he laughed out loud.  “Now, can we discuss something more serious?”
“Yes we can, we can discuss anything that’s on your mind.”
Here goes nothing, Mac thought as he began to speak.  “Darlin’, after what happened the other night, I can’t bring myself to allow you to live in that neighborhood.  You’re just not safe there.  I want you to consider moving in with me.  I’m not rushing you, I want you to take your time and seriously think about it.  You can give me your decision whenever you’re ready.”  There, he said it and she just kept eating as though he’d spoken about the weather.
“Okay, what’s the next topic?” Annie munched on another link of sausage.
Shocked beyond belief, Mac just looked at her.  “Hmmm, that’s all I have, I guess,” he said, wondering just who this woman had become and overnight at that.
“Well,” Annie said as she stood and started to pick up the dishes.  “I have a few things I’d like to discuss.”
Ah, the Annie he knew was back.  “I’m listening.”
As she loaded the dishwasher, she turned to him.  “Will you please take me home…”
“Absolutely not!” Mac stated emphatically. 
“Hey, just a minute; I didn’t interrupt you when you were talking,” she scolded.  “I was trying to ask you if you would please take me home so I could get my clothes for work.  Nothing you threw in my suitcase matches and I can’t show up at work in shorts or jeans.”
“I’m sorry I interrupted you.  Yes, we can run into town this afternoon if you want.” Mac felt guilty for incorrectly anticipating what she was going to say.  “You said a few things, please go on.  I won’t interrupt you again.”
Annie thought about the metaphor Elise had used when she told her men were just like horses.  Opening the freezer, she took stock of the contents.  “What do you want for dinner?  The choices are pork chops or chicken.”
Still in shock, Mac answered.  “Either is fine with me.  I’d be happy to grill some chicken.”
“Sounds good, chicken it is.  Now, with your permission, I’d like to help Elise in the stables again.  Do you have any objection?”
“Annie, that’s a very thoughtful idea.  Now that she’s pregnant, I’m sure she would love the help and the company too.”
“Anything else you want to discuss?”  Mac was waiting for the other shoe to drop.
“Yes, just another couple of things,” she said as she put the chicken in the fridge hoping it would defrost in time.  “I’d like to stop at the liquor store and pick up a couple of bottles of white zinfandel.  Red wine gives me such a headache.  I’d also like a bottle of Frangelico; I noticed there wasn’t any in the liquor cabinet and I really enjoyed it.”
“No problem, we can do that when we go into town,” Mac grinned, liking what he saw.
“Thank you, Sweetheart,” Annie said as she planted a very tender kiss on his lips.
“I think I’ll shower after the stables if that’s okay with you,” Annie added, pulling away from his mouth.
Mac smiled as he sat there sipping a second cup of coffee.  Maybe my Dad was right; a sound spanking worked wonders.


Blurb:

As Mac falls deeper in love with Annie, his past haunts him.  He failed to keep the woman he loved safe before and he vowed he’d never fail again.
            Annie’s fierce independent streak doesn't make it easy for him.  She's created a life for herself, certain she can make it on her own.


About Keriann McKenna:

Hi Readers, I hope you enjoyed this excerpt, and if you read MacDermot’s Bride, I'd love for you to leave a review.  Reviews mean a great deal to authors and even those that are critical help us to write better books.
I’ve been writing for most of my life. My first love was music and lyrics and my first song was a dreadfully simple little tune about a boy I was madly in love with at fourteen. I’m certain I drove my grandmother to distraction as I wailed this boy’s name from the piano in the living room at every opportunity...romance was in my heart even at a young age.
Later in life I developed my craft as a poet and published work in anthologies. I still write poetry, but am dipping my toes in the waters of romance, both sweet and steamy.
I was born in a small community in Upstate New York, but left as soon as I bought a decent car that didn’t require more oil than gas...I’m not kidding. I used to pull into a service station, hand the attendant five bucks for gas and tell him to fill it up with drain oil.
I lived in Canada and the Midwest for several years before settling in the Seattle area with the love of my life. I now live in the foothills of the beautiful Rocky Mountains near my family; I’m retired from the counseling field although I still work crisis intervention two nights a week. I consult with and edit for other authors into the wee hours of the night, and I rescue senior dogs and give them a forever home.

#SPeekSunday - 5/24/15 - A Dom's Dilemma - Information exchange - a delicate balancing act #BDSM #Spanking


He demanded her obedience, but what she wanted was his love.

It's Sneak Peek Sunday again and that means I get to share another 6 paragraphs from one of my books.  Yay!

My submission for this week is from my 4th book, A Dom's Dilemma, a BDSM/spanking novel that is sometimes playful, sometimes serious and sometimes terrifying, published by Blushing Books.  Kelly and Jim, the two main characters, were secondary characters in Arrested by Love.  Though this story stands on its own, if you read Arrested by Love, you'll most likely recognize some of the scenes, since we see a little bit of Kyle and Tiffany in this book, too.



In this excerpt, near the end of Chapter Five, Jim Evans and Kelly Franklin are together at "The Velvet Chains," a BDSM club where they met that evening.  Kelly is receiving some aftercare after a session of intensive medical play she did with Jim that seemed a lot more real than play.  Aftercare is an important part of the BDSM experience.  Both the Dom and the sub seek reassurance from the other.  Jim enjoys holding Kelly, and she likes being in his arms, so this is a quiet period of reflection and getting to know each other. Problem is, when Jim asks Kelly a question she really doesn't want to answer, her evasion serves as an admission she's lied to him.

Normally, a Dom would punish a sub for that infraction, but Jim has told Kelly he'll give her a onetime pass. Before they do anything else, however, he suggests they get to know each other a little better.  He begins by asking her some pertinent questions, which eventually lead to the topic of trust.  When Kelly admits that she probably trusts him more not to hurt her than anyone else, he's pleased, but remains cautious.  He informs her, in no uncertain terms, that he can be a controlling SOB who expects a lot, but he gives back in return.  If she chooses to remain as his sub, he'll expect her to be open and honest with about everything in her life. Even those things she might not want to share, but for the moment he's content to simply know more about what she likes. 


             She smiled at the odd change in subject, but was pleased he didn't try to push her for a commitment she wasn't yet ready to give.
            "To be honest, Sir, I have a really bad sweet tooth, and I love éclairs."
            "Good to know.  I'll keep that in mind in case I decide to offer you a treat.  Personally, even though you didn't ask, my favorite is Texas chili, made proper, not the way you pansy easterners make it."
            Kelly laughed.  "Somehow, Sir, I am not the least bit surprised by that confession.  May I ask how old you are, Sir?"
            "You may.  I'm thirty-five."
            Only seven years older than she was.  Kelly liked that.  "Are you, or have you ever been married, Sir?"


Kelly knows she makes a lousy sub.  She has a temper and a mouth that constantly get her into trouble, but she sees something in Jim that makes her want more of the type of mastering only he could give her, except she's not sure she can give him all the honesty he expects in return.

#SatSpanks - 5/23/15 - A Simple Misunderstanding - Isn't refusing to obey a form of defiance? #CorbinsBend #Spanking



He came to her rescue when she needed him most, almost to lose her when she disobeyed him.

Reading this material at Work could get you spanked.

Welcome to the Saturday Spankings blog hop.  My stories are all M/f with the dominant male determined to protect the woman he cares for and loves, or grows to love, by doing whatever it takes to ensure her safety and continued health.  This includes administering a spanking when she needs one.  

My submission for this week is a selection from my fourth spanking book, A Simple Misunderstanding, a Corbin's Bend novel.  It's sequel, Past Interference is due out February 1st in the Love in the Rockies collection.


In this scene, which occurs in the last third of the book, Eleanor Benson (Elly) has moved in with Gerald Douglas (Jerry) after she is released from the hospital, still recovering from injuries she received from her husband.  Jerry insists she stay close to the house and not take her dog walking in the park on the first day she's home.  However, when an older neighbor calls to her from the dog park, Elly disobeys Jerry's instructions and takes their two dogs with her, unaware her abusive husband is lying in wait for her.

When her actions nearly get her killed, Elly finally accepts her only option is to divorce her husband, but after signing the papers, she realizes Jerry is still angry over her disobedience. 

Frustrated by the distance growing between them,  Elly realizes unless she confronts him, he'll continue to treat her like an invalid, despite his growing anger. However, when push comes to shove, and Jerry accepts her challenge, she's no longer sure she's made the right decision. Covering her unease with bravado, she demands to know what makes him think she's asking to be spanked.


“Oh, sweetie, you’re practically screaming for me to jump up, grab you, and toss you over my knee so I can whale out my displeasure on your backside. Except that’s not how I do things. And if you wish to maintain I’ve misread your signals; tell me why you’re putting on this show of defiance.”
“I’m not defying you; I just don’t want to follow your orders.”
Interesting distinction, but he didn’t believe her for a second. “And you don’t consider refusing to obey my orders defiance?”
She shrugged, so he let out a long breath. “I believe we currently have you up to sixty swats. Care to go for seventy?”
Her brow wrinkled. “No, sir.”

 

After being abused by her husband, Elly is antsy about entering into another DD relationship, but she's disobeyed Jerry, and until he forgives her, a part of her will remain unsettled and ill-at-ease.  Rather than continue in limbo, Elly decides to push Jerry into taking action.




M/F Domestic Discipline in Colorado.

Blurb:

Though Arthur and Eleanor Benson have been practicing domestic discipline for three months since their wedding, he insists moving to Corbin's Bend, where domestic discipline is the norm rather than the exception, will revitalize their marriage. Elly has doubts, but since Arthur is the undisputed head of their household, they move. However, once Arthur becomes immersed in a community where spanking is not only permitted, but encouraged, his personality undergoes a dramatic change. Accusing his submissive wife of being lazy, disorganized and disobedient, he employs creative methods of pain and humiliation to mold Elly from the imperfect woman he married into the perfect woman he desires. And Elly finds herself a virtual prisoner in her own home, accountable only to the man who rules her life with a cane.

In his years as a vet, Jerry Douglas has seen what abuse does to animals, and he recognizes those same signs in Elly Benson during her daily escape to the dog park with her tiny poodle. Jerry steadfastly supports the tenets of domestic discipline and enjoys the freedom Corbin's Bend offers its residents, but he remains fiercely protective of anyone in need of a champion. And when he witnesses evidence of harsh handling, his instinct is to rush in and rescue. Problem is Elly Benson is a married and consenting adult who insists all her bruises and welts are nothing more than a simple misunderstanding between her and her husband, until the day Arthur Benson takes his authority and discipline one-step too far, endangering Elly's life.
