Guest Post - 3/1/16 - Simon Says by Libby Campbell #DD #EroticRomance @LibbyC26

Today Libby Campbell has dropped by to discuss her new romance novel "Simon Says." But before we get to her book, I asked her a couple of questions she answered that I'd like to add here first.

You are in a Domestic Discipline relationship? How much of your book comes from real incidences? 
I am and it gives me a fair bit of insight into how the dynamic works, both the physical and psychological aspects.

Is there a message in your novel that you want readers to grasp? The best DD is based on mutual respect and, if not love, great affection.
What do you like to do when you’re not writing? 
I like to hike and spend time at the beach – all year round. The ocean fascinates me.

Sadie will be the perfect woman for Simon, if only she can learn to obey his rules.


Excerpt:

Almost is an ambiguous stretch of time, depending on how a person spends it. Sitting on that hard wooden chair with a tender bottom made the seconds stretch to hours. I watched Simon’s face and admired his concentration as he typed. That attempt to divert my attention soon grew boring. The seat on the roller coaster grew more uncomfortable. Eventually all my thoughts were about the terrifying descents ahead. I wished we could just push off from the station and get the scary part over with.
He stopped typing and reread what he’d written. Satisfied at last, he closed the clamshell and tucked it into his bag. I was sure that the time passed only seemed like minutes to him. My butt ached sitting on that chair but I didn’t shift even a fraction of an inch, not while he was staring at me. He crouched in front of me. 
“First of all, I want you to know that I care about you very much. In fact I’m falling in love with you.” He kissed the back of my hands. “This—this ritual of discipline—is proof of that love. If I didn’t care about you, about making you and me together a stronger unit, I wouldn’t bother.”
He rubbed my hands with his thumbs. “Secondly, you owe a huge debt to my sister.”
I opened my mouth to speak, to ask why. He placed a finger on my lips. “It’s not the time for the condemned woman to plead her case.”


Blurb:

When feisty Sadie Donohue meets Simon Jacobson at a New Year’s Eve party, she thinks it’s a chance encounter, but not all is as it seems. Simon is a busy executive who prefers to be the master of his own destiny.

Over dinner the next night his authoritative personality starts to emerge. Always one to question authority, Sadie rebuffs his gentle suggestions for more polite behavior with a lively, sharp wit. Simon is amused but unmoved.

If Sadie wants to continue seeing him she must accept his rules. Rules that will be reinforced by spankings when she fails to comply.

A strong, independent woman, Sadie struggles with his demands. A tragedy from Simon’s past makes him more determined than ever to make her obey. Their worlds collide.

This romantic comedy, set in cold climes of Canada, is warmed with frequent spankings.
