Mac smiled as he saw her sweet honey oozing out around the dildo. He wagered a good guess that she was turned on by the discipline and he brought his hand down again to deepen the crimson color on her gorgeous mounds. “I’ll behave….” She buried her face into the blanket. Her mind raced; what else could she have possibly done wrong and how many more times was he going to slap her bottom? Her cheeks were on fire and the bright red glow from them almost convinced Mac that she would certainly be more careful in the future. He brought his hand down twice more. She wiggled and squirmed, cried and moaned, and the more she moved the harder the weight on the gold chain swung pulling on her nipples. That too was now beginning to hurt but she was intrigued by how turned on she was. “And that was for paddling the canoe well out into deep water to reach a yacht which, as far as you knew, offered you no safety at all; a yacht with someone aboard who could have raped and killed you, throwing your body overboard, to be washed ashore.” “Ahh, yes! You’re right, I was reckless and I’ll never do it again. Mac, my nipples are screaming for your mouth.” In all his ways Mac was basic, even when it came to sex. He was a standard missionary position kind of guy with an occasional variation. That would have to change; he wanted a wife and a family—a second chance. Annie Campbell was a busy event planner at a five star hotel in the city. Fiercely independent, she wouldn't consider herself sexually savvy; she certainly was open to new experiences. It had been six lonely years since her husband died. It was time to move on and setting her fears aside, she joined an Internet dating site. After reading what she considered to be a damn near perfect profile, she sent Mac a brief note and waited. He had no idea just how independent she was. She had no idea how over-protective he was—but they were about to find out. The Key to Annie's Heart is now available on Amazon and Barnes & Noble. Book Two of The Fall River Ranch Series, MacDermot's Bride, is scheduled to be released in March 2015. Buy Links: Amazon Banes & Noble “I like the red glow that’s beginning to cover your cheeks,” Mac remarked, “and STOP isn’t the safe word.” Keriann McKenna and I have always been a team, partners in crime so to speak. When I got married it was on a shoestring budget, a very thin shoestring. It was Keriann who took me out dumpster diving the night before the wedding. We hit every florist in town and ended up with some beautiful bouquets. She even provided the music, singing The Wedding Song and my favorite John Denver hit as she played her guitar. Keriann is very multi-talented. She’s also more well-traveled than I am, as she’s lived all over the U.S. and out of it. I’ve always considered her a trail blazer and far gutsier than me. Once she drove a van from Seattle to New York for a visit with six children including a newborn, all on her own. That would terrify me, but for Keriann it was no big deal. As a writer I think she’s braver than I am, willing to color outside the lines. She brings a ‘sophistication’ to these novels that I don’t have and I add the ‘down home’. The Key to Annie's Heart is the first book in The Fall River Series. This book will be followed by, MacDermot's Bride in March 2015 and The MacDermots of Scotland, sometime this summer. Blurb: To live a rancher's life in the Rocky Mountains had always been Mac's dream. He loved his place on Fall River. He was a success by anyone's measure, except his own. He failed to keep his wife content to be at home, although "home" was a dream put to architectural drawings. Too many nights she preferred to stay in town with friends rather than make the trip up the mountain. She liked to party, and winding mountain roads coupled with too much to drink ended her life.

Read their story! Hi Sue, thanks for stopping in today. Why don't you tell us a little about your latest release. Sue: My latest release is Her Old-Fashioned Doctor, a medical play spanking romance novella that also appears in the What the Doctor Ordered boxed set. Her Old-Fashioned Doctor portrays a young socialite struggling with her fiancé’s betrayal. She runs into the very kind but strict Dr. John Holden while she’s on a path to self-discovery and she immediately falls for him. But she’s got to figure out if it’s just a rebound fling or if they can have a more meaningful relationship. Now that this book is out, what's next on your agenda? Sue: I’m currently writing a medieval spanking romance that will be in a boxed set with four other authors who I very much adore. I’m really excited about it. Oh, now we have something else to look forward too. Thanks for visiting my blog today and good luck with your new set. I read this book, and I loved it. I thought it was hot, but there were parts that made smile and touched my heart as well. Here's the blurb and an excerpt: After she catches her fiancé cheating on her, Melissa packs a suitcase and sets out on a road trip to give herself some time to recover. But things take an unexpected turn when she rear-ends Dr. John Holden’s truck in a tiny rural town and he responds by inviting her for an impromptu dinner date. The handsome medic’s charm and take-charge manner—not to mention his willingness to spank her bare bottom if he feels it necessary—all combine to set Melissa’s heart beating faster than it has in a long time. Almost before she knows it, Melissa finds herself falling deeply in love with he old-fashioned doctor, even though she’s only known him for a couple of days. But is her rapidly growing crush on John merely a rebound fling, or can his hold on her heart last forever? Publisher’s Note: Her Old-Fashioned Doctor is an erotic romance novel that includes spankings, sexual scenes, medical play, anal play, elements of BDSM, and more. If such material offends you, please don’t buy this book. This book is also available as part of a five-book collection entitled What the Doctor Ordered. Excerpt: “I can tell you’ve been crying, darlin’. Are you in some kind of trouble?” She shook her head. “No. Nothing like that.” She stared into his eyes, wondering if she could trust him, wondering if it mattered if she spilled her troubles at his feet, just to get them off her chest. Maybe then some of the worry darkening her mood would lift. “Promise you won’t judge me?” “I promise.” She sighed. What the hell. “I was engaged to be married in about six months. Two nights ago I caught my husband-to-be with three prostitutes. We’ve been engaged for years, since shortly after high school, and the plan was that we’d always get married and have a big fancy wedding after I finished college. We’d just bought a house together, and I caught him in our bedroom with all three of those girls. So I packed a suitcase, hit him in the balls, and left.” “You kicked him in the balls?” “He pissed me off, and he was standing in my way. Technically I didn’t kick him in the balls, I swung my suitcase into his crotch. Knocked him on the floor too,” she said with pride as she recalled the pain twisting Steven’s face before she walked off. “Remind me to never piss you off.” Author bio: Sue Lyndon is a multi-published author of erotic BDSM romance and spanking romances. She enjoys a good book in any genre, loves Star Trek and Battlestar Galactica, and runs on coffee and chocolate. http://www.suelyndon.com Buy links for Her Old-Fashioned Doctor: Amazon US Amazon UK Barnes and Noble All Romance Buy links for What the Doctor Ordered (contains 5 naughty medical play stories by Natasha Knight, Trent Evans, Tara Finnegan, Sue Lyndon, and Casey McKay): Amazon US Amazon UK Barnes and Noble All Romance Blushing Books What happens when an over-protective rancher meets an independent widow? Sparks fly and somebody may get spanked! Mac was a success by anyone's measure, except his own. He had failed to keep his wife content to be at home, even though at the time "home" was a dream put to architectural drawings. Too many nights she preferred to stay in town with friends rather than make the trip up the mountain to the trailer they occupied. She liked to party and winding mountain roads coupled with too much to drink had been the death of her. To live a rancher's life in the Rocky Mountains had been Mac's dream for as long as he could remember. He was a rancher and a mountain man at heart. He could nix the suit required for consulting in Washington and spend his days in jeans and cowboy boots rescuing and training horses. In all his ways he was basic, even when it came to sex. He was a standard missionary position kind of guy with an occasional variation. Perhaps that was the reason his wife spent so much time in town. He didn't think she cheated on him but if he was honest, he didn't know for sure. His was determined to keep his next wife content, if he was lucky enough to find one. She would be in for a surprise. Promising he wouldn't fail again, he read and explored everything he could get his hands on to entice the right woman into his heart. Since he rarely left his ranch, at the suggestion of Luke, the young man who managed the stables, Mac decided to try internet dating. It seemed safe enough; with his connections to Washington, he could find out anything about any woman before he met her. Annie Campbell was a busy event planner at a five star hotel in the city. While she wouldn't consider herself sexually savvy, she certainly was open to new experiences. It had been six lonely years since her husband died. Always a people pleaser, she joined an Internet dating site just to get her friends off her back. After reading what she considered to be a damn near perfect profile, she sent Mac a brief note and waited. Two weeks later, after he returned from a business trip, he was delighted to read her message and contacted her immediately. Chatting sessions, emails, and phone calls continued between them and finally a first date was arranged. Could Mac pull it off? Could a country guy at heart woo a city gal and convince her his laid back way of life was better? Could he stop researching how to please a woman and put it into practice? Oh Yes! Yes he could! Coming in January 2015. Watch for it. I'm happy to say The Trouble With Abby is doing very well. After forty-six days it's still in Amazon's top 100 in the Erotic Action and Adventure category at # 50 this morning. It has 37 wonderful reviews for which I am extremely grateful. Whenever a new book comes out, especially part of a series, I'm always nervous. Will readers like it? What if they think it's not as good as the others in the series? They've spent their hard earned money on my work. Will they be disappointed? Ugh! It's always the same. I'm consumed with fear that somehow I will let them down. In The Trouble With Abby my heroine is taking a giant leap of faith and opening her own shop after years of working for others. In one scene her fears come spilling out. Although they are some what over the top and unjustified, I totally understand where the emotion in this scene comes from, lol. I guess we are a bit of what we write. Thank God for level headed, strong men who can pull us back from the precipice. She was quiet, subdued as she moved through the store, checking racks for price tags and fussing with displays. Several racks didn’t have the sizes arranged correctly and she straightened them. Pulling a black lace nightgown from one rack, she held it up to her body. “What do you think? Is this worth $3,000?” she asked. “Maybe on you,” he answered with a grin, “but for the average customer, no, I don’t think so.” “Me neither,” she sighed in disgust as she pulled large handfuls of hangers from the rack and carried the garments to the counter. “I must have been out of my mind when I priced these things.” “It’s alright, babe. You were probably tired. Mistakes happen,” he said, leaning against the wall, watching her. “I can’t afford these kinds of mistakes,” she snapped. “All it would take is for one customer to come in here and see prices like that and I could be ruined. My store would be a failure if word got around that I was way over-priced. I have to stay competitive if I’m going to make it.” He watched her hands shaking as she snipped all the tags off. “Abby, you need to take it easy. I know you’re stressed,” he continued, walking behind the counter and putting his big hands on her shoulders, massaging gently. “Relax.” “Really? You think I should just relax when my whole future is riding on this? When I’ve sunk every dime of my money into this place and a huge amount of small business loans besides?” she said, spinning to glare at him. “I’ll be bankrupt if this place doesn’t turn a profit,” she shouted, pushing away for him. “I could end up homeless, out on the street,” she continued. “Now you’re really on a roll,” Connor replied, trying to hide his grin. “Don’t you think you’re exaggerating, just a little?” “No! And now some psycho is threatening the people I care about most. You’re supposed to be good at this stuff, covert operations and all that. Why don’t you go find this guy and just…shoot him or something? You’ve got a big gun,” she pointed out. “Blood thirsty little thing aren’t you?” Connor said, smiling as he scooped her up into his arms and began walking toward the dressing rooms. “What are you doing?” she screeched. “I don’t have time for a quickie!” “We are going to have a little talk, you and I,” he informed her, pushing open the door of the largest room with the toe of his boot. Three of the walls were mirrored and a matched pair of floral loveseats provided comfortable seating. Putting her on her feet, he sat and spread his knees, pulling her between them. “First of all, I can’t just go and shoot someone and I wouldn’t even if I could. Would I like to beat the piss out of him for what he’s done? You bet I would,” he growled. Abby was eye-level and he was sure she saw the truth of that in his eyes when she backed up a step. Snagging the waist of her jeans, he hauled her back. “Second, I want your store to be a success, I really do, but no more talk about your life being over if it isn’t,” he ordered. “You do have a future, with me, and you damn well know it. I want you to stop acting like what we have, our relationship, means nothing. Do you hear me?” he said sternly, popping the snap at her waist and sliding her jeans down to mid-thigh. Gripping the cheeks of her ass, he gave them a little squeeze. Thanks for checking out, The Trouble With Abby. Now I'd like to tell you about another series I've been working on. Author Keriann McKenna and I have teamed up for a three book series. The Fall River Ranch Series will have three novels, starting with the release of The Key to Annie's Heart later this month and followed shortly with MacDermot's Bride and The MacDermots of Scotland.

The time travel/ western romance I'm working on, In This Lifetime is nearing completion and I hope to release that novel in late January also.
