The talented Alyssa Bailey is here today to share a tempting tidbit from Book One of her O'Connor brothers series, "In Pursuit of Molly."
His friend nodded in the direction of the door. “That one is
pretty and looks like she’s over her head. I should go help her get
comfortable.”
“Nope. Sorry, but that naughty woman is mine. She knows not
to come here alone. She’s innocent in the ways of this type of club.”
“Ah, so that’s who you were waiting for. I wondered if you
were going to hold up the bar all night. Well, Ken’s moving in over there,
you’d better snag her fast.”
Cián finished his sparkling water and got up. Striding
towards Molly, he saw one of her girlfriends trying to entice her to enter
further. He’d made it to within an arm’s length of Molly when her friend,
Karen, spied him. His look of disapproval stopped all words flowing from her
mouth. She stared like a deer in headlights for a split second before turning
on her heels and walking back to the others.
“You’ve been naughty all week, leanbh. You know how I deal with naughty.”
Cián grinned at the shiver that ran through her body and
then the shocked look Molly gave him. She opened her mouth several times to
speak but closed it each time.
“What is the rule about clubs like this one?” Molly dropped
her head but Cián wouldn’t allow it to stay there. “You know it and I know it.
You should not be here alone.”
“I’m not… well, you weren’t around, and I was asked to go.”
“Molly, you chose not to call me and ask for an escort.
You’ve been out of control all week trying to get my attention because you’re
irritated over the spanking. Now you have my attention and have earned another
one.” His words came from deep in his chest causing it to rumble. “And if
you’re honest, you’d admit at least to yourself, that you were trying to earn
another one. You wanted to see if I was for real, if this was something I
played at or followed through on.”
“That’s ridiculous and pretty self-centered if you ask me.”
“We’ll see. Now that you’re here, if you want me to show you
around and help you get an understanding of what playing here is like, I will.
If you prefer to go back to my place, we can get the matter of your spanking
out of the way.”
“I’m not going to your apartment and you aren’t spanking
me.” Her indignant words ended in a whisper and ever pinkening cheeks.
“You want it here? I can promise you, no one will care.”
“Oh God Cián, please, not here.” Her face and neck were now
red.
Blurb:
Molly Rasher had been obsessed with Cián O’Connor from the
day she met the preoccupied veterinarian student. She was still dreaming of his
toned body and serious demeanor when she finished college but he had only
nodded and smiled in passing. With no further contact, it seemed her sexy dreams
would have to find another star, until he walked into the clinic’s front door,
reigniting her passions.
Cián was more than half-way through his training to be a
veterinarian. Finally, he could afford to pursue his angel. Molly’s endearing,
shy smile had tantalized him for almost two years and now the opportunity to be
with her fell into his lap, he was going to grab it with both hands. He prayed
she was ready for him because he’d learned if you wanted something bad enough,
you held on tight until you got it. No matter the cost.
About the Author:
USA Today best-selling author,
Alyssa Bailey, is a dyed in the wool Texan living amongst the beauty of
Southeast Alaska. She lives where the sky meets the rainforest on the
mountains; the mountains touch the ocean, and the wildlife frolic on land, sea,
and air. Humans, the ultimate interlopers, are wedged in where allowed and are
properly thankful for the privilege.
Alyssa loves writing romance for
the naughty in all of us. She writes power exchanges between strong,
intelligent, sassy women who are not afraid to make a stand and men confident
enough to give his woman space, but Alpha enough to keep her safe despite her
choices.
If she can throw a little
mystery, humor, and suspense in her stories, it’s even better. Her characters
predominately live in Regency England, Ireland, and Scotland amongst lords and
ladies, in the Contemporary Realm amongst men and women of the world, and of
course, hard-working Cowboys and fiercely romantic Native Americans.
