Encouraging Jealousy in a Partner Who Spanks? All's Fair in Love and War. Saturday Spankings #SatSpanks #erotic #romantica


Hi Guys
Welcome to Saturday Spankings. My post today is from my new spanking romance HIS By Design   The complete book is available NOW.  It's also available as an e-serial.

My teaser today is near the end of the book.  Julian has withdrawn from Claire, seemingly because he's under pressure with his new line but Claire believes it's fear of getting too close.  Away on business he calls her.  When she tells him she's going to a party he asks her if her ex-lover will be there.  When he responds with  jealously, Claire decides to encourage the emotion...



"I don't think so, Mary-Jane doesn't care for him much."
"I admire her discrimination."
"Julian, you hardly know him."
"I know you're still attracted to him or do you deny it?"
 
Yes, I deny it  - you're the only man I want. 
 She stopped before the thought formed voice - all's fair in love and war - it may be the only weapon she had.  Her answer was non-committal,"I'm married to you, Julian."
There was another pause and then there was a distinct edge to his voice, "Just make sure you don't forget that fact! 

So is it a good idea to make your husband who spanks jealous?  Read the extended extract below to find out.  Or better buy book!

Extended Extract:

He straightened and taking a deep breath, his voice became serious. “Look, Claire, I’m not proud of it, but you need to know.  I’m naturally jealous, unreasonably so.  It’s something I’ve always struggled with. The last thing I need is any encouragement from you.” 

Claire dropped her head and said nothing.  He tipped up her chin and she met his eyes.  “No more games.  Agreed?”  She nodded and he sat back seemingly satisfied with her silent remorse.

He took a sip of his coffee and then his voice dropped to a low, gentle tone. “I wasn’t manipulating you, Claire.  I did it to prove to you that I’m as capable of arousing your passion as much as any other man, including Blake.  It was the primal instinct in me, I’m afraid.  You’re my wife.  Mine.  I was convinced that if I conquered you sexually, you’d respond to that and Blake would lose his power over you.”  The coffee in his mug appeared to hold a fascination for him once more.  "If it's any consolation, it backfired.  Not so much at the time, but the next day when it dawned on me that your response was due to more than my sexual prowess."  There was a note of self-mockery in these last words, but his next words were spoken huskily.  "It made me aware of the depth of your feelings."

Claire drew in her breath.  So that was what started him running.  That and the kiss the next morning, coupled with the overheard conversation at the party.  Richard was just an excuse to withdraw.  An excuse to himself more than to her.  Sensing a slight tension in the air, she abandoned the subject.  The admission was probably as far as he was prepared to go at present, and she’d no desire to upset the gentle truce that was growing between them.  However, she did want to settle the subject of Richard.  "Julian, since then Richard has left me cold.  I really feel nothing for him except perhaps repugnance.  When he tried to force himself on me last night..."

"What!"

She jumped as his mug was slammed down.  She didn't waste any time observing that now she’d really seen him blazing mad, she was only grateful that the murder in his eyes was not directed at her.  As he sprang up, his words supported the look. "I'll kill him!"

Claire blanched.  This was no figure of speech.  At this precise moment, he really meant it.  Thank goodness he’d no idea where Richard lived.  By the morning his fury should have abated. A lot sooner than that, if she’d anything to do with it.  Right now, he was still in the grip of it.  Striding over to the kitchen phone, he searched through the contacts menu.  When it didn't provide what he was looking for, he searched again.  Successful this time, he punched in the code. 

Concerned, Claire stood up.  "Who are you calling?"

"Mary-Jane, she'll tell me his address.  I didn't think there was much point in asking you."

"Julian, he could charge you with assault."

"He won't be able to do anything ever again when I'm through with him."

"Oh great, I've always wanted to be a jail-widow."

Thankfully, he was receiving no answer.  Hanging up the phone, he glared at it as if he wished it were human so he could injure it.  Then he began searching through the menu again.  She watched as he made two more futile phone calls and then he leaned back against the counter. His hands resting on the edge, he glowered at her.

Placing her hands on her hips, she challenged him.  "What are you going to do now?  Beat it out of me?"

"Don't tempt me!  You've got it coming!  You should’ve told me last night, as soon as I got home!"

He pushed away from the counter and advanced towards her.  Claire didn't back off.  His fury was fading fast. She could see his concern and tenderness for her crowding it out. Reaching her, he drew her close.  "He didn't hurt you, did he?"

"No.  Julian, please don't feel you have to defend my virtue."  Looking up at him with an earnest expression she continued.  "I defended myself quite ably.  He didn't get very far.  He was the one who got hurt, not me."

"Good for you!"

His tone was full of savage satisfaction that alarmed Claire.  She pulled away from him.  "You will drop it, won't you?  I do have to work with him."

The look that crossed his face left her in no doubt as to what he thought of that particular fact, but he shrugged and said resignedly.  "Alright, if that's the way you want it." He gave her a fixed stare.  “Are you sure you’re okay?”

Determined to reassure him she nodded.  “Yes.  Absolutely.”

“Right, well in that case.”

Claire squealed in surprise when in a few swift moves, he righted the chair that had fallen over when he sprang up in anger, sat on it, and pulled her down across his knee.

Instinctively, she tried to rise.  When his arm firm across her waist put paid to that, she flung her hands back to protect her bottom.  It had been weeks since he’d spanked her and she reverted to her natural mode to protect her backside rather than adopt the disciplinary one that he was still cultivating in her.  “No, Julian.  Don’t, please.”

“Don’t?  Seriously, Claire?”  He shifted, settling her even more securely across his knee.  “Let’s get this straight. You deliberately encouraged me to believe there was still something between you and your ex-lover. And instead of telling me immediately about what he tried to do last night, you let me storm off under the misconception that an attempted sexual assault was a lover's tryst. So?  Seriously?  Don’t?”

Claire relaxed and wriggled a little provocatively across his knee in the pajamas she'd donned for comfort when she arrived home from work. Here she was across her husband’s knee, in her pajamas, seemingly about to be disciplined. Now she was over her instinctive reaction, the implications of this were flowing breathlessly through her. If he was intending to punish her that meant maybe he was done withdrawing.  Maybe this would clear the air.  Bring them closer together as it had before.

Claire let out a long breath and pulled her hands away leaving his target clear. “I guess.”

“You guess what, Claire?”

His voice was stern in that strict, dominant tone he used on her at their first meeting and other times when he’d disciplined her.  Claire’s heart flipped.  She was coming to understand enough about domestic discipline to recognize that he was adopting a role to meet both their needs.  She knew now what he meant when he’d told her at her office about performing his duty. It wasn’t the chore she associated with the word.  No it was a profound sign of his love and affection for her. A love and affection she’d not had the pleasure of experiencing in well over two weeks.  

He spoke again in the same strict tone.  Well, young lady?”

Adopting her own role gratefully, even though it would mean a very sore behind, she told him in a suitably penitent tone.  “I guess I deserve a spanking.”

“That you do,” he told her, bringing his hand down with a hard smack right in the middle of her buttocks.

“Yeow.  Julian!  No warm up?”

“Nope.”  He agreed bringing his hand down again and again, hard and fast randomly over her pajama bottoms.  

Claire squealed and howled, bucking frantically across his thighs.  This was by far the hardest hand spanking he’d given her. It lasted a lot longer as well.  After several smacks on her clothed bottom, he pulled down her pants and spanked her bare cheeks mercilessly for what seemed forever.  She gave up her kicking and finally lay across his knee, limp and crying as he continued to spank her until she was a sobbing mess.  Finally he righted her and sat her on his knee, curling her into his chest, rubbing her bottom and back until she calmed down.

“Don’t ever try to make me jealous again, Claire.  I promise you won’t sit for a week if you do. Understood?”

Pissing off her tall, strong, alpha-male boyfriend who believes in spanking his woman hard - not smart!




“No. Big. Deal. Therese Marie, did I hear you right?”
Tessa bit her lip and didn’t look back at him. Her heart was pounding, marveling at her audacity. She knew she was playing a dangerous game, but she couldn’t help herself. Shrugging again as she walked down the hall to the kitchen, she deliberately ignored his question. “You want some tea?”
“No, I do not want some fucking tea!” Chance caught up with her in two strides. Taking her by the elbow, he marched her into the lounge, twirling her around swiftly to face his furious olive stare. “Explain yourself, woman.”
Tessa gulped. Shit, he was really mad, madder than she thought he could get. He never swore and his eyes were blazing green fire. Suddenly this was no longer a game. It hit Tessa that pissing off her tall, strong, alpha-male boyfriend who believed in spanking his woman hard when she misbehaved, whether she liked it or not, was far from smart.

                    

Blurb

Everyone in town knows that sparks of attraction have been flying between Tessa Anderson and Chance Williams almost from the moment her nursery business brought her to beautiful Hope Junction, Wyoming, but it takes an actual fire to really get things moving. When a blaze breaks out in Tessa’s kitchen, it is Chance—a volunteer firefighter—who rushes to the scene. 

He asks her out the very next day, but she is shocked by his threat to spank her if it turns out the fire was caused by her carelessness. Nonetheless, Tessa can’t help pushing Chance to see if he would truly spank her, and before she knows it the firm-handed rancher takes her over his knee for a lesson she won’t soon forget. Yet despite his bossy ways, Tessa soon begins to realize that Chance might well be the man she’s been waiting for her whole life, and though it is hard for her to admit, the promise of a sore bottom when she misbehaves arouses her deeply. 

But someone apparently has a problem with Tessa’s presence in Hope Junction, and the kitchen fire is followed up by one mysterious incident after another. Tessa keeps these occurrences secret from Chance, believing she can take care of herself. When the truth eventually comes to light, Tessa soon learns that Chance takes her safety very seriously and a bare-bottom spanking is only the beginning of the thorough, humiliating punishment she faces for her subterfuge. Will Chance’s decision to take her in hand so forcefully tear them apart, or will Tessa see his discipline as proof of the love they will share for the rest of their lives? 

Publisher’s Note: The Rancher’s Woman is an erotic romance novel that contains spankings, severe punishments with a switch and a strap, sexual scenes including forced orgasm and punishment sex, extensive anal play and punishment, elements of BDSM, and more. If such material offends you, please don’t buy this book.

Discipline is a Family Tradition - Saturday Spankings


Welcome to Saturday Spankings.  My teaser today is from  The Rancher's Woman my #1  bestselling western romance.  Set in the small Wyoming town of Hope Junction, The Rancher's Woman is Tessa and Chance's love story.  Tessa has just moved to town to start a new business and Chance is the local rancher who falls for her.  My extract joins Tessa at the Williams family cookout during a surprising discussion with the Williams women that reveals Chance's disciplinary tendencies are a family tradition.



***********
   Janey shrugged, answering Steph’s teasing, “Ahh, hell, Wes is just like his cousins - a protective, demanding, and overbearing ass, but hey, he is my protective, demanding and overbearing ass.” Janey beamed, love and affection for her fiancé was clear in her look and tone, “Still, that doesn’t mean I intend to let him rule the roost the way you let your men; I do what I like and suffer the consequences.” She shrugged again, “If that means I run up my tally, so be it  - no way am I buckling under to his whims just because it earns me a sore butt.”

  Tessa choked on the cider she was enjoying, spewing it out all over her shirt; she could hardly believe what she just heard.

  Cally, the wife of the second eldest brother, Tyler, thumped her on the back none too gently and asked her laughingly, “Hey, come on, Janey didn’t shock you, did she? You really so goody two-shoes that Chance ain’t tanned you yet? What’s it been? Four weeks? Ty’d already spanked me loads and whipped me at least twice by then.”

Hi Guys,
Hope you're all having a great May.  I can hardly believe its the fifth month of 2015 already.  2015 is almost half over.  Aargh!  Anyway, I m writing today to reconnect and let you know how things are with me, my books and life in general.  
This is a new agenda for me I am determined to write a regular letter to keep in touch.
My current release HIS By Design. Its an erotic version of my sweet romance Chances & Choices.  It has a lot of new material so if you love Her Keeper and read Chances & Choices you should love the new version.  I'm really excited about it.  
It's available for Pre-Order at a the Special Price of $2.99. It will revert to $4.99 the day after release on June 6th 2015.  It's also available in episodes as I write it.  The first two are already out.  Episode1 - Coveting Claire will remain at $0.99 and is available to borrow FREE on Kindle Unlimited. Episode 2  - Correcting Claire will be $0.99 until May 11.  The other episodes will be available for one week at $0.99 and will not be on Kindle Unlimited for quite some time if at all.  Quite soon, I'm planning to make my books available for sale on my website.

I had great success with my first book  published by Stormy Night, The Rancher's Woman.  I know quite a few of you bought it and wrote great reviews.  Thanks for your support.  It went to #837 in All Kindle Books, #1 in Erotic Westerns and #5 in BDSM.  Unfortunately a few reviews upset me so much, I pulled the book. I think it was because they came at the same time I was ill so I was more sensitive, but a couple were pretty hateful.  It's now available again everywhere except Amazon and will be up on Amazon soon, either as a new version or the original.  I'm still trying to decide if I should create a new version.  I'd love some feedback from you guys on that.  If you read it - let me know your thoughts.

The biggest news for me it that it looks like I don't have cancer.    Not completely out of the woods, may need surgery, but looking hopeful.  Something like that really makes you value every day after.  I am also expecting a grandson in September - well my daughter's carrying and I'm expecting!  Yay!  I had a fabulous weeks vacation with her in Antigua in early March my first trip to the Caribbean.  This was the view from our room.
Have a great week and look out for new episodes of my e-serials Intimate Knowledge and Her Keeper COMING SOON!

Saturday Spankings - The Rancher's Woman - Their women mind them or else. #satspanks

Welcome to Saturday Spankings.  My teaser today is from my cowboy spanking romance The Rancher's Woman.  It is now re-released on all platforms including Amazon.  A Best Seller at  #1 in Erotica Western #5 in BDSM . Set in the small Wyoming town of Hope Junction, The Rancher's Woman is Tessa and Chance's love story. Tessa has just moved to town to start a new business and Chance is the local rancher who falls for her.  My extract joins the story at Tessa and Chance's first meeting.  Chance has just rescued Tessa from a fire it looks like she caused with her carelessness.  Worried that she might be going into shock, he scoops her up and carries her into her living room. Sitting her on his knee, he calls in Janey, the EMT to check her out.  Tessa finds this too familiar and tries to wriggle of his lap demanding he let her go. To her mortification her protests are met with a warning that she lucky she's sitting on his knees not across them - a warning that is loud enough for Janey to overhear...


***********
Tessa blushed crimson and looked in mortification at the other woman’s amused, even-eyed stare.  She listened in amazement as the pretty blonde raised her eyebrow and told Tessa.
“I’d sit tight if I were you.  It’ll be easier.”  Fishing various items out of her EMT kit, she continued in a wry tone, “Listen.  How about I save you a whole heap of time and give you the lowdown on the realities of being a woman in Hope Junction, Wyoming, population 2,673.  You’re out west now and small town western men are old fashioned.  Their women mind them or else.  Believe me, he’s not kidding.”
Then she calmly leaned in to put a blood pressure cuff on Tessa just as if she’d said something remotely normal.

My Sexy Saturday - HIS By Design - Correcting Claire -Sexy Me Down ~ #MySexySaturday #Saturday7 #MSSAuthors #MSS90



Hi Guys

Welcome to my My Sexy Saturday. My post today is from my new erotic romance HIS By Design the spanking rewrite of my bestseller Chances&Choices. The complete book is available NOW for pre-order at the special price of $2.99. The first episode Coveting Claire is $0.99 and available to borrow FREE with Kindle Unlimited. My seven paragraphs are from the second episode Correcting Claire out now at $0.99 for a limited time.  The extract joins the story after Julian has punished Claire and then given her an explosive orgasm. Claire is moved by this to make a request that surprises Julian...

*********
 “Can I…could you show me…I mean teach me to you know…to please you like that?  I mean…with my mouth?” 
He sat up and looked down at her embarrassed yet eager features in surprise.  “You mean you’ve never…”  He stared at her, amazed.  “Seriously?” 
“Don’t look so surprised.  A lot of women don’t want to.  I’ve not wanted to before now.”  She blushed and looked a bit shamefaced.  “I mean…it’s always seemed …well…a bit gross, really.” 
Julian lay back and gave into overwhelming amusement, glad of the opportunity to lessen the intensity of his feelings.  “A bit gross, really?  Aww, sweetheart and you want to brave that for me?  He wiped his eyes and snuggled up to her, ignoring her belligerent glare to whisper in her ear.  “You want to suck my gross cock just to please me?” 
He laughed even more when she punched his chest and turned away from him with a flounce. “Glad you find this amusing.  Well you can forget it!  Suck your own gross cock.  Asshole.”  The last word was added under her breath, but not inaudibly enough for him to fail to hear it.  She yelped when he smacked her sore ass smartly in retribution. 
“Ow!  That’s not fair.”  She turned back bristling in indignation.  “You’re mean.  Here I am putting myself on the line to offer something I’m embarrassed over and you make fun of me!”  She pushed against his chest.  “I don’t know why I even liked you all these years never mind why I’m considering being stupid enough to let myself fall in love with you!” She stopped at that, staring at him open mouthed and paled visibly. “Oh no” She turned away from him again without another word, a sudden silence falling between them. 
He pulled her close, his hard arousal poking into her mercilessly.  Holding his breath, he held her so tight he was scared he might shatter her.  For that small precious moment any fear of loving her was completely banished.  The feeling was fleeting, but it was the first step on an irreversible road.  Cradling her against him he whispered, “Claire honey, I’d be honored to teach you how to please me that way.  I’m sorry. I couldn’t resist teasing you.  I’m real happy it’s another first for us, sweetheart.
