A-Z Challenge~ Emmaline's Gamble

We are on to E of the A-Z Challenge hosted by Celeste Jones and Spanking Romance Reviews. 

Today I have an excerpt for you from my short novella Emmaline's Gamble. Emmaline first makes an appearance in my book Emmaline's Groom. You can read this shorter one as a standalone, but why would you want to?

Emmaline's Gamble is free to read through Kindle Unlimited. In this excerpt Leo has brought his wife Emmaline to a fair in town. She gets curious about a Confidence Man's game and becomes convinced that she can beat him and double her money. Leo has other opinions on the matter:

"Step right up here, little lady," the man running the game said. He was a smarmy fellow with eyes that crinkled at the corners. He leaned in as he gave her a leering smile. A shiver ran down her spine as she made eye contact with him. She hesitated with the hand on the clasp of her bag. "Do you have something to wager? Maybe you should run along and ask your husband."

Heat rose to her face and she met the man's eye in challenge. "I do not need to find my husband. I have a wager right here." She pulled one coin from her purse and placed it down in front of the cups.

The man's eyes lit up at the sight of the money and gave her a smile. Checking to see if she understood the rules, he placed the marble under the left cup. Emmaline did not even blink as she watched the man mix up the positions of the cups, following the one which had the marble in it.

She chose the center cup when his hands came to rest. The man lifted it to reveal the marble beneath it. The crowd gave a whoop of excitement. Pride filled her chest and she eagerly nodded in the affirmative when the man asked if she would like to wager her winnings.

Emmaline wagered her original coin, plus the one she won, and added a coin from her purse to the pile. She knew her time was limited, Leo would soon realize she had wandered off, so she wanted to win as much as she could in the short amount of time she had. She knew she was being greedy, but Leo would not fault her if she managed to triple the money she had in her purse.

Grace appeared at her side, tugging at the sleeve of her dress and gesturing behind her. Emmaline shook her off, trying to concentrate on the man and where he put the marble. She watched as he again placed it under the right cup. Then Grace was tugging at her dress again. Emmaline swatted her away with one hand as she kept her eyes trained on the man. He seemed to give the cups an extra shuffle before they came to rest, but she knew for certain that the marble was in the left cup.

"Emmaline!" Leo's sharp voice drew her attention from behind her.

Reluctantly, she turned to see her husband glaring at her. She gave him a little wave before she said, "Just a moment darling, I am almost done."

The crowd gave a chuckle and Leo's face darkened at her brush off. She turned back to the man at the game and pointed to the cup on the right. The crowd gave shouts of agreement and she knew she had chosen the correct one. Only when he lifted the cup there was no marble.

"What?" Emmaline shouted, her heart thumped in her chest as the man scooped up her pile of coins. The crowd jeered at her loss. A couple of men yelled that the man was cheating.

Leo was at her side, pulling her away from the game, "What is the meaning of this?" he hissed in her ear.

"Leo, I was winning. It should have been under that cup!" she exclaimed.

"Better luck next time, darlin'." The smarmy Confidence Man leered in her direction. Emmaline felt tears burn in the back of her eyes as the crowd dispersed, a few sending comforting words her way as Leo's hand tightened around her forearm. She had lost her entire weekly allowance. Her heart thrummed in her chest as she thought of the best way to admit this to Leo.

Grace gave her a quick hug, urging her to come by the house tomorrow, before she retreated to James and they hastily made their way away from the crowd and the angry Leo.

"I believe he cheated," Emmaline protested, searching Leo's face for any sign of agreement.

He did not respond. He pulled her arm dragging her behind him as he made his way toward the exit of the fair and pointed them toward home. 

Emmaline grew up living a privileged life, she never had to give the presence of money a second thought, so settling into life with her hard working husband, Leo, is proving to be a bit of an adjustment. She tries to be the type of woman Leo can be proud of, but she fears her upbringing in England's upper crust has left her severely unprepared in being a proper wife. 

When Leo brought his young wife to America, far away from their life in England, he promised to take care of her and provide for her. But when Emmaline gambles away hard earned money and her impulsiveness puts her in further danger, what is a husband to do with his wayward wife? 

This book features characters from Emmaline's Groom, including a spoiled rich girl, her stern husband, spankings, graphic sex, anal play, and more. If any of this subject matter offends you, please do not purchase this book.

Playing with Fire- #satspanks

Welcome back Saturday Spanking enthusiasts! (I'm just guessing if you're here then you are an enthusiast.)

I know life is busy and crazy this time of year, but you have time for eight sentences, right?

Then if you find you have time for a short little read you should get Emmaline's Gamble. It's a short treat and you will not be disappointed!

The following is toward the beginning of the story. Emmaline keeps waking up her husband Leo because she is excited for the day. Leo has just given her a playful spanking and now she is hoping for something else that might settle her down.

"Pestering me into a spanking is like playing with fire, my love. I may not always be in such good humor about it." He quirked a brow at her. It was a look he had perfected. There was something so stern yet loving about it that she immediately wanted to obey any command that accompanied it.

"Yes, sir," she responded on a breathless whisper. He caught her lips in his and she groaned when he nibbled at her bottom lip. She tilted her hips up, trying to draw his attention to the part of her he had awakened, but was dutifully ignoring.

Emmaline grew up living a privileged life, she never had to give the presence of money a second thought, so settling into life with her hard working husband, Leo, is proving to be a bit of an adjustment. She tries to be the type of woman Leo can be proud of, but she fears her upbringing in England's upper crust has left her severely unprepared in being a proper wife.

A Spanking for a Pest

The holiday season is upon us and it came up so quickly I am finding it hard to manage. Anyone else feel a little crazier than normal these days?

I feel completely exhausted by dinner time, I swear if I shut my eyes instead of eating I would fall right asleep, but then by the time I get into bed hours later so many things are running through my mind that I toss and turn.

On the flip side of that I keep waking up before my alarm goes off in the morning because my crowded mind will not let me rest. I force myself to at least close my eyes and stay in bed until it goes off, but I toss and turn and can't relax!

I guess it's good Mr. McKay is such a heavy sleeper as my tossing and turning doesn't disturb him in the least. (He's also really not a morning person so if I did accidentally woke him up he wouldn't be able to coherently put a sentence together anyway.)

Anyway, I still have a new release! Emmaline's Gamble is available on Amazon and it is free to borrow on KU, so if you are looking for a momentary distraction from the hustle and bustle, it's a quick read!

Emmaline is having a hard time sleeping too, she's excited about Leo taking her to a fair. She's woken up Leo and now he's going to sort her out.

"If you do not get enough sleep now you will be too tired for the fair later."

"I am trying, Leo, but my brain does not want to sleep. Maybe I will just get up and go downstairs so I am not bothering you." She made a move to get out of bed but Leo stopped her.

"You will stay right here and be an obedient wife. Your husband has told you to get back to sleep. Do you need help settling down?" Leo arched a playful brow at her. She could see now that she had fully awakened him, judging by the way the sheet tented over his lap. A zing of excitement shot through her as she thought about the many ways he could 'settle her down'.

"How do you suppose you will settle me down enough to sleep a few more hours?" She tilted her head to the side and played innocent.

"First, you need to be taken to task for being such a pest," he said.

She raised her eyebrows. Did he really just call her a pest? That did not seem very nice. She opened her mouth to protest but he was already pulling her down across his lap. Even as he lifted her nightgown, baring her bottom to his gaze, she wriggled against him. "I am not a pest!"

Leo's hand smacked down against her unprotected bottom and she let out a squeal. "You are actually quite a pest, my love. But luckily I know the remedy for that."

"Stop that!" she screeched at him as his hard hand rained down with three more slaps to her quivering cheeks. He paused and rubbed his hand over the places he had just spanked. His soft touch on top of her stinging flesh sent pleasure to her core and she let out a moan.

"Do you like that, my little pest?" he teased.

Emmaline grew up living a privileged life, she never had to give the presence of money a second thought, so settling into life with her hard working husband, Leo, is proving to be a bit of an adjustment.

New Release! Emmaline's Gamble Available Now!

Big News! My newest story from The Ravenswood Manor series is now available. Emmaline's Gamble is up on Amazon and available to read for free through Kindle Unlimited.

If you haven't met Emmaline and Leo yet, now's your chance. Emmaline's getting herself into trouble again:

He reentered the room and led her next to the arm chair with a firm grip on her forearm. Pushing her over the side he pushed her upper body onto the seat, her feet still planted on the floor, her backside raised in the air. "Raise your skirts," he demanded, tapping the back of her thigh. She craned her neck, looking at him over her shoulder that was when she spied the wooden spoon he was holding. 

He met her gaze and glowered at her, "Now!" he barked.

She hastily pulled up her skirts, not wanting to anger him further, but her knees shook at the thought of him punishing her in his emotional state. He yanked her pantelets down without undoing the ties at the front, she heard a rip, but screwed her eyes shut as she anticipated the onslaught of her impending punishment.

Gambling Will Get You Spanked!

Today's Saturday, huh? I think I have all but given up on signing up for weekly blog hops on time.

My friends all have some hot snippets to share over at Saturday Spankings. 

I actually have a book coming out this week. Oh you didn't know?

Probably because I have not done one iota of promotion for it. I thought you might like a little taste. Also, have a look at my fancy new cover!

Emmaline's back and she's still making trouble! She's found a man running a cup game at the fair and despite her friend's warning gambles her money convinced that she will walk away a rich woman.

Grace appeared at her side, tugging at the sleeve of her dress and gesturing behind her. Emmaline shook her off, trying to concentrate on the man and where he put the marble. She watched as he again placed it under the right cup. Then Grace was tugging at her dress again. Emmaline swatted her away with one hand as she kept her eyes trained on the man. He seemed to give the cups an extra shuffle before they came to rest, but she knew for certain that the marble was in the left cup.

"Emmaline!" Leo's sharp voice drew her attention from behind her.

Reluctantly, she turned to see her husband glaring at her. She gave him a little wave before she said, "Just a moment darling, I am almost done."

The crowd gave a chuckle and Leo's face darkened at her brush off. She turned back to the man at the game and pointed to the cup on the left. The crowd gave shouts of agreement and she knew she had chosen the correct one. Only when he lifted the cup there was no marble.

"What?" Emmaline shouted, her heart thumped in her chest as the man scooped up her pile of coins. The crowd jeered at her loss. A couple of men yelled that the man was cheating.

Leo was at her side, pulling her away from the game, "What is the meaning of this?" he hissed in her ear.

"Leo, I was winning. It should have been under that cup!" she exclaimed.

"Better luck next time, darlin'." The smarmy Confidence Man leered in her direction. Emmaline felt tears burn in the back of her eyes as the crowd dispersed, a few sending comforting words her way as Leo's hand tightened around her forearm. She had lost her entire weekly allowance. Her heart thrummed in her chest as she thought of the best way to admit this to Leo.

He did not respond. He pulled her arm dragging her behind him as he made his way toward the exit of the fair and pointed them toward home.

“Wait!” she cried, pulling against his hold and grinding them both to a halt. “Give me a coin, I can win it back,” she appealed to him, holding her hand out so he could place the coin she asked for in her palm.

Leo narrowed his eyes at her and tugged her forward, landing a hard swat on her backside. His hand stung even through the layers of clothing and her overcoat. She did not argue further as he led her off the fairgrounds. She dipped her head down, not daring to look up to see if people around them were watching. Her face burned in embarrassment and ire bubbled within her chest that he would chastise her in such a way in public.

Emmaline's Gamble:

Emmaline grew up living a privileged life, she never had to give the presence of money a second thought, so settling into life with her hard working husband, Leo, is proving to be a bit of an adjustment.

Some Sweet Nerd Love with Etta Stark

I have the honor of having Ms. Etta Stark on my blog today. I got to read a sneak preview of her latest book Lord Westbrook's Muse before it was even published (that makes me feel sort of special).

If you have not read a book by Etta Stark I recommend that you rectify that situation for yourself. She has this sweet and funny way of telling a story that makes you fall in love with every single character in her book. 

You can read Lord Westbrook's Muse even if you have not read Lady Westbrook's Discovery which is a story that happens before this one- although they are not really a series because they are each standalone stories. (Why wouldn't you want to read both though?)

I titled this post "Sweet Nerd Love" because Lord Robert Westbrook, the hero of this story, is really a socially awkward, nerdy dude. And I love him! Etta somehow made this guy who is painfully lacking in social skills with his peers into this commanding sexy hero that becomes Cass' savior. I think that is the sign of a talented writer. She gives us a flawed human being, but still manages to make him likeable and sexy- it's just very real. I could gush on and on, but she brought us a hot excerpt, so let's get to it!

Hi Casey! Thanks for having me on your blog today. I’m really excited to talk about my new book Lord Westbrook’s Muse here because I know you appreciate a bit of spanky Victorian romance. Your Ravenswood Manor books are the sexiest and spankiest after all. Aren’t we due another one of them soon? I want to know Samuel and Clara’s story.

Back to Lord Westbrook’s Muse which is a love story between a rather cantankerous Lord of the Manor and a beautiful free-spirited woman called Cass with a mysterious past.

Defying all the rules of polite society, the pair of them has dived into a rather passionate affair – which began when Lord Westbrook gave Cass a bare-bottomed spanking for earlier bad behaviour and swiftly developed into something more carnal. The snippet below takes place the day after they have made love for the first time. They are meeting in secret at midnight in an abandoned cottage in Lord Westbrook’s grounds.

Lord Westbrook may have just thoroughly ravished Cass but he’s still being scrupulously polite about things. He’s quite the formal English gentleman, really.

“Come,” he said, leading her through to the bedroom.

She followed willingly enough. He was alert to any sign of resistance. He wanted to dominate her, true, but he wanted her to want him too.

“Lie on the bed,” he instructed.

She did as she was bid, reclining sumptuously on the bed; her beautiful body on full display. He did not take his eyes from her as he began to undress himself. He removed his jacket, waistcoat and shirt then bent down to remove his boots. He left his trousers on for now despite the discomfort of his rigid member straining against the fabric.

She had not reached a climax when he had taken her the previous day and while he had been happy enough to use his hand to ensure that she achieved full satisfaction, he was determined that tonight she would orgasm while he was inside of her.

With this in mind, he lowered his head to her sex and softly ran his tongue across her swollen slit. Cass gave a squeak of surprise but made no attempt to stop him. Robert pushed his tongue inside. He had no previous experience of pleasuring a woman in this way. Although he had read about the practice in a number of books he owned – books that had been purchased discreetly in plain brown wrappings.

He gauged his effectiveness by noting Cass’s reactions as he licked and sucked her exquisite womanhood, giving especial attention to the tiny bud of her clitoris. Cass’s responses indicated that what he was doing was gratifyingly effective. Her little moans and gasps of pleasure were quite the most erotic thing that he could imagine. He wanted to manage it so that he could bring her close to the point of orgasm without actually reaching it. He wanted that to happen once he entered her.

The thought of it was almost too much for him to bear. He did not want to unman himself before he had even started. He removed his mouth and Cass gave a little whimper which was followed by a groan of pleasure once he had unbuttoned his trousers and thrust his manhood inside her.

He pounded into her, building up a steady rhythm. He felt the walls of her sex constrict around his member as she climaxed. She cried out in pleasure and then her head lolled to one side as she experienced her petite mort. He continued his thrusts until he soon reached a climax of his own. He collapsed, spent, on top of her and then rolled off. He embraced her naked body and buried his face in her long auburn hair.

“That was extraordinary,” Cass said. “Even better than yesterday. I never imagined that it would be like this. Thank you.”

“I am gratified that you enjoyed it,” Robert replied.

Lord Robert Westbrook’s life of responsibility and social obligations is turned on its head when he meets Cass, a beautiful and idiosyncratic woman at his mother’s garden party. Cass is a staunch supporter of women’s rights as well as an advocate of dress reform, rejecting the restrictive fashions of the nineteenth century. 

In fact, Cass’s rebellion isn’t limited to her dress sense. She is also determined to experience the excitement and passion of a sexual liaison. Lord Westbrook, she has decided, is the very man she wants to seduce her. Meanwhile Lord Westbrook has determined that Cass requires some stern discipline. 

The couple’s passionate and fiery romance breaks every rule of Victorian decency and kindles a love that neither Cass nor Robert were prepared for. However, when Cass’s secret past finally catches up with her, it seems that the couple’s happiness might be doomed forever.

Spanked in the Corner- Saturday Spankings

Hello to the Saturday Spankers! I missed last week-- in my defense it was a holiday weekend here in the US, and I have lost track of what day of the week it is.

First order of business- my girl, Katherine Deane, has a book coming out this weekend. Her debut solo novel, it's called The Coach's Discipline. I've already read it and it is an awesome book, so I know you all want to buy it! There is a little facebook launch party going on in honor of the release CLICK HERE to join in the fun, it is taking place today July 12th at noon EST.

(Just to let you all know, Katherine Deane happens to be one of my besties, so you need to show her some love or I will get all derby on your ass.)

On to the spankings!

Last time I shared a part of a scene where Lena was being punished by Wesley for not taking her own health into consideration. And then she also got a little sassy with him. Wesley was not amused-- you can catch up here.

She turned to look at him and saw the spoon in his hand, her eyes meeting his, she gave him a pleading look.

He would not be deterred by her. He moved her hands on the wall, placing them higher and urging her upper body forward so she was bracing her weight on her hands. Then he tapped the fronts of her thighs, wordlessly guiding her to take a step back.

The position resulted in her reddened bottom jutting out further than the rest of her body.

He stood beside her, an arm at her waist, keeping her in place. He hefted the heavy wooden spoon in his hand and was just lining up his first swing when she turned to look at him again.

"Please, Wesley. I am sorry."

Loving Lena is available for purchase at a number of online ebook retailers:

Clandestine Affairs and the Art of the Booty Call

We were out with friends last night and the topic of booty calls came up (as they will), which prompted my husband to launch into a story about one of our ill-fated booty calls.

It was when we first got back together again. We were both still living at home and times when a house would be empty were few and far between. I got a call at around noon on a Saturday that his parents had taken his grandparents to a matinee and lunch. The house was empty! We weren't sure how late they would be but we figured we had at least three hours. Because who would be done with lunch and a show by 12:30??

We are up in his bedroom and ripping off each other's clothes, they get tossed around. We both just get naked and we hear the garage door open.

We freeze, lock eyes, and panic! Mr. McKay is redressed in about 3.5 seconds. I am still kneeling on the bed, fully naked, and I cannot locate one stitch of clothing.

I start to laugh, uncontrollably. He starts yelling at me, "Why are you still naked?"

We are out of time. By now his parents are downstairs with his grandparents. His very WASP-y, conservative, and frowning upon pre-marital sex grandparents. The upstairs overlooks the living room, so we are in full view when we open the bedroom door and step onto the landing.

Four sets of eyes look up at us. I try to pull my sweater closed as my bra never made it back on, it hastily got shoved in my purse.

His mom is shooting daggers at us with her eyes. His dad is trying to cover a smirk with his hand and his grandparents look up at us in confusion. Mr. McKay feeds them a line of BS about wrapping Christmas presents.

His parents know this is not true, as it is not Christmas Eve-- my husband's usual day for Christmas shopping, and there are actually no presents up there. But his grandmother mutters something about how sweet and thoughtful he is. I nod a hello, but no words ever leave my mouth and we dash out the front door.

We've all had these moments, right? Sneaking around, coming dangerously close to being caught in the act. Looking back there was really no harm in what we were doing. The stakes were higher because my future MIL didn't want her parents to know we were fooling around in the house. But in truth there would have been no dire consequences if we were caught-- just ten or so years of awkward holiday dinners.

When I was writing Loving Lena I had already given Wesley and Lena a backstory in Emmaline's Groom. I wanted to stick with what I had already said about them. Lena is married to another man, but in love with Wesley. 

Where would they have been carrying out their affair. Surely, not stolen moments while their families were at matinees. Then I remembered that they are both from money-- where would one have an affair with gobs of money at their disposal?

He would always remember the trip he and Lena took to France. He had wanted to take her away someplace where they did not have to hide. They had spent a long, luxurious weekend in Paris.

They had taken in the sights and then he took her to a show. They were both dazzled by the can-can dancers and he bought Lena her very own pair of silk drawers. Just like the ones the dancers had worn.

She had worn them for him a few times, but she was always embarrassed.

She did not realize how beautiful she was.

"Put them on for me." He pulled out her chair and sat.

"Wesley-"

"Come here, darling."

She went to him, stepping in between his outspread thighs.

He placed his hands on her hips and looked up into her clear, blue eyes. He wiggled his eyebrows at her. "Do you know how many times a day I picture you in my mind in this pink silk?" He tugged them out of her hand.

"You are lying." Her pale complexion was now a bright pink, her chest rising and falling rapidly.

"I would not lie to you." He stood and held her face in his hands. "Undress for me. Undress and put these on. It would please me so," he whispered to her.

She looked back at him with wide eyes, and he half expected her to tell him to leave. But she turned, giving him her back.

"Will you unbutton me?" she asked.

Wesley felt his length harden in his trousers. Her sweet submission, her willingness to please him, always threatened to undo him.

There you go. A Victorian clandestine affair-- they're rich so they escape to Paris for a weekend. Not exactly an afternoon booty call in your boyfriend's parent's house, but same idea I guess.

Loving Lena is available in lots of places now, so snap up your copy today!

Oral Pleasure- Dungeon Crawl

It's Dungeon Crawl time again! I'm also doubling up again and using this as my Blogging from A-Z post. So today O is for Oral Pleasure.

I don't think I need much set up here. This is from Loving Lena, my new book that is on sale now.

Lena is giving Wesley a little strip tease, except he breaks all the rules and can't keep his hands off of her-
"Wait," he said. Rising from his chair, he moved in front of her. "Take these off first." He knelt down and unhooked her stockings from her garters, rolling the silk down her left leg.

She held onto his shoulders for balance as she lifted her foot so he could pull it the remainder of the way off.

Kneeling in front of her, he could smell the arousal coming off her sex. He let out a groan as his pants seemed to tighten against him.

He placed his hands on the clasps of the next stocking, but not being able to resist the temptation in front of him, he leaned his head forward and took a taste of the honey dripping between her thighs.

Lena gasped and her hands tightened on his shoulders. "Wesley," she whispered. Her voice was tinged with an urgent need. She tried to take a step back, but he brought his hand behind her and gave her a hard slap on her buttocks.

She yelped and jumped forward again, right up against his waiting mouth. He clamped his hands on her bottom, holding her in place as he laved his tongue over her nether lips.

She let out another whimper and her knees shook.

He pulled his head back and looked up at her. Strands of hair had fallen out of the pins that held them in place. Her eyes were glassy and he could see beads of perspiration that had formed across her chest.

He rolled down her right stocking, tugging it off her foot. Then he stood in front of her. "Sorry darling, I have a hard time controlling myself around you." 

He pulled her close and kissed her hard on the mouth.

She responded by moaning into him.

"Are you too warm?" Before she could answer he placed his hands at the top of her corset, then pushed it down, exposing her breasts.

The tight corset pushed them up as if they were an offering, serving as further incentive for his need to bury himself inside of her.

Lena Trimble should be experiencing the happiest time in her life. She is in love with the most wonderful man she has ever met, they have a beautiful baby together, and they are starting a new life in a new country. But Lena feels like she is living a lie. Their child was conceived out of wedlock and she is still embroiled in a divorce from a horrible man who never loved her but was only after her money.

Wesley Lawford feels like the luckiest man alive. He finally has Lena all to himself and he is trying to build a new life with her and their child. But as Lena's divorce drags on, her fears of what others think have her retreating from the world, and worse, closing herself off to him. Afraid of losing Lena as she continues secluding herself, Wesley knows he must be firm with his future wife and Lena soon finds herself over Wesley's knee for a hard bare-bottom spanking. Will a firm hand and loving domestic discipline bring back the woman he loves? Will simply loving Lena be enough to keep them together?

Loving Lena is the second in the Ravenswood Manor series. The book is a Victorian romance set during the beginning of America's Bicycle Craze, in 1890's Philadelphia. Although each book can be read alone, characters from the first book in the series, Emmaline's Groom, are referenced in Loving Lena.

J is for Journey- Excerpt from Loving Lena

Welcome back to my Spanking from A-Z Blogging Challenge.

It is Friday the 13th so I was going to do J is for Jinx, but I am not feeling particularly jinxed this week. Quite the opposite in fact, I just released a new book, Loving Lena, so I thought I would tie in a J post to an excerpt for you.

So today J is for Journey. Lena has been on a journey literally speaking as she moved from England to America with Wesley.

She is also enduring a figurative journey as lots of changes are taking place in her life right now. Most importantly she is anxious to marry Wesley and for her divorce to be finalized from her first husband. This journey is taking a bit of an emotional toll on her and she is lashing out at Wesley.

In this point in the story she is voicing her frustrations about the amount of time her divorce is taking. Wesley is also concerned about Lena's health and the amount of sleep she has been getting.

"I do not wish to discuss this anymore. If you say it will be dealt with soon, then I trust you." She moved to pick up her dress, hoping to put an end to the conversation.

"It will be. Soon. You have my promise." He reached out and touched her shoulder, but she shrugged out of his grasp.

She squealed in protest when he took her by the waist and spun her around.

"I am still not pleased with your attitude," he lectured. "If you are feeling lonely maybe Emmaline can come by more often. I will try to help you how I can, but you need to stop this at once." He gave her shoulders a shake as he finished his sentence.

"How will watching your baby sister help me to feel less like a prisoner in my own home?" she shot back.

"Lena," he said her name softly and brushed a hand across her bare shoulder. 

"Why are you trying to start an argument?"

"I am not starting it, it just is!" she shouted, and realized it felt good to shout. She had all these emotions welling up inside her and she had been beating them down for so long she was ready to explode.

"Do not shout," he reprimanded. Releasing her shoulders he crossed the room, removing his jacket from the armoire. "Let us have a nice dinner and then I will be putting you to bed at a reasonable time tonight. We can talk more about it later."

"You will do no such thing!"

He turned to look at her, his mouth set in a grim line. "You will stop shouting, and we will talk about it later."

She stomped her foot, "I am not a child and you are not giving me a bedtime."

"Stop acting like a child before I treat you like one," he warned.

Lena Trimble should be experiencing the happiest time in her life. She is in love with the most wonderful man she has ever met, they have a beautiful baby together, and they are starting a new life in a new country. But Lena feels like she is living a lie. Their child was conceived out of wedlock and she is still embroiled in a divorce from a horrible man who never loved her but was only after her money.

Wesley Lawford feels like the luckiest man alive. He finally has Lena all to himself and he is trying to build a new life with her and their child. But as Lena's divorce drags on, her fears of what others think have her retreating from the world, and worse, closing herself off to him. Afraid of losing Lena as she continues secluding herself, Wesley knows he must be firm with his future wife and Lena soon finds herself over Wesley's knee for a hard bare-bottom spanking. Will a firm hand and loving domestic discipline bring back the woman he loves? Will simply loving Lena be enough to keep them together?

Loving Lena is the second in the Ravenswood Manor series. The book is a Victorian romance set during the beginning of America's Bicycle Craze, in 1890's Philadelphia.
