#SPeekSunday - 6/7/15 - Arrested by Love - Fearingthe worst - #DD #SpankingRomance


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

Welcome to Sneak Peek Sunday.  For this hop we get to share six paragraphs from a published work or a WIP (work in progress).

My submission for this week is 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.



After Kyle makes it clear to Tiffany that speeding will earn her much more than a ticket from him, he gives into the inevitable and asks her out on a date.  He loves her, but isn't sure he's the right guy for her.  However, he no longer fights the attraction between them as he dates her exclusively, but Tiffany wants more, so she makes her stand, and Kyle makes it clear how her life will change if they get married.  And he persists by asking if she even thought she could live on a budget.  When she informs him she is not fiscally irresponsible, he tells her that if she can live for one month on the budget he sets for her, and show how she'd been able to save the rest of her salary, without going to her daddy for help, he will ask her to marry him.  But after two weeks in a row of going over, Tiffany seeks out her father in a tearful panic. He agrees to bail her out, but warns her that men can forgive a lot, but lying is something they find difficult to excuse. So, by lying to Kyle, Tiffany finds herself swiftly spiraling downward into a morass of guilt that has her sobbing when he proposes. Confused, Kyle tries to get to the root of the problem as he comforts her. Finally, he assures her that no matter what she's done, he'll still love her.


             "Shh.  Now that's enough of that, Tiffany Anne," he said, trying to be firm with her.  "Settle down now and talk to me.  You know you can tell me anything, so why are you afraid to tell me what it was you did?"
            "Because you'll never forgive me, and you'll hate me forever."
            Though she was being a little overly dramatic about it, Kyle was beginning to suspect the worst.  Bending his head down, he confessed, "Unless you've actually murdered someone, sweetie, there isn't much I wouldn't forgive.  And I'd probably forgive that too, if the homicide was justified."
            He thought that would make her laugh, and was confused when it only made her sob even harder than before.
            "Shh.  I was only teasing, Tiff.  This is way beyond any crying you've done with me before.  Even when I paddled your fanny.  I hate to say it, but I'm beginning to suspect you've been untruthful with me about something."
            When she didn't deny it, he was convinced she'd been seeing someone else.  His heart lurched at the thought of losing her, but he refused to make things even more difficult by giving vent to his hurt pride.  Unable to totally hide his feeling of betrayal, however, he asked more than a little grimly, "When did it happen?"


Tiffany loves Kyle, and wants to prove to him she can will make a good wife, except she's never tried to keep to a budget before, and she quickly discovers it's much harder than she originally thought.  She knows going to her father is against the rules, but she can't face Kyle's disappointment for the second week in a row, so she breaks the rule, convincing herself she'll make it up in another way. However, when she falls short yet again, she begins to feel like a total failure, and actually bursts into tears when Kyle proposes. Kyle, of course, begins to suspect the worst.
