Today, I'm excited to share PK Corey's excerpt from her most recent Cassie book, "Cassie's Life."
What had I done all those years ago that could land ‘my sweet ass in jail’ more than forty years later? |
Excerpt:
I knew Tom would be in
soon. Most people in situations of such stress have the option of fight or
flight. Since the last time I’d run away from Tom I had given him my solemn
word I wouldn’t run away from him again, my options were somewhat different –
fight or submit. I didn’t want to fight with Tom, but to submit to a
spanking…when I’d been the one to defuse the situation… I just wasn’t sure I
could accept it.
Tom wasn’t long in
following me. One look at his face told me he was a man on a mission and I
could only assume that mission would keep me from sitting comfortably for a few
days. I knew nothing I could say would change his mind. I might submit
physically, but mentally, never. The look of cold fury I gave him as he began
removing my clothes was not something he could misinterpret.
I was seething, as Tom
undressed me completely – to make me stand before him nude before a spanking
was nothing but a sheer power play and I felt he was doing it because of what
that hateful Cal had said about listening to authority.
I felt anything but
submissive, as I stood nude before him. I didn’t say anything. I was too angry.
I waited to see if he would go for the brush or the leather paddle. The answer
was neither – he came for me. Putting his hand on the back of my neck he pulled
me into a kiss that I’ll remember longer than any spanking. I stood weak kneed
from the kiss staring into Tom eyes as he hovered over me a moment before
kissing me again as he ran his hands over my body.
I wasn’t even sure how I
got on the bed, but Tom was still kissing me as he removed his clothes. We made
love with a passion I’m sure most would believe should be reserved for the
young. I don’t think I even remember the details, not that I’d share them, but
I when I came back to myself I could barely move except to clutch tightly at
Tom. Eventually I found my voice.
“I think I’m going to have
to take up smoking.”
I heard Tom’s warm chuckle,
“Don’t you think you stay in enough trouble without taking up more bad habits.”
“Honey, I have to tell you,
if this is your new method of getting my attention when you’re upset with me,
I’m behind you all the way."
Blurb:
Ask Cassie about her life on the river and
she’ll tell you it’s lovely and peaceful. But while Cassie loves the life she
lives, peaceful is not always an accurate description. Whether she’s
confronting an armed man who’s in a drunken rage, planning a friend’s wedding
or dealing with a ghost in a backwoods lodge, Cassie is going to deal with it
the best way she knows how. And peaceful doesn’t always work.
When a mysterious phone call comes for
Cassandra Wentworth – Cassie’s past is suddenly back to haunt her in a
devastating way. Tom has always said nothing from before the time they met
counts, but he didn’t know about this.
Sue, Annie, Allie and Jenny are all willing to help, but will it be
enough?
About the Author:
The love of writing came to me late in life and I spent time trying to
fit writing into a busy schedule. Recently I retired, the kids are out and on
their own and my wonderful husband encourages me to spend more time exploring
the world of writing.
I always hear you should write what you want to read, so I have. I write
loving domestic discipline with the stress on ‘loving’. I want a strong man who
cherishes the woman he loves and is willing to go to any length to keep her
safe and protected.
My Cassie’s Space series shows a mature couple who are deeply in
love. Despite loving Cassie’s free spirited ways Tom is determination to keep
her safe, even if it takes a trip over his knee. My new series, Cal’s Law,
is about a younger couple. Though they come from very different backgrounds,
love and discipline draw them together.
