He only sees one way to accomplish that—by buying a ranch, and making it the biggest and most productive one, so he can put his uppity childhood rival in his place. What he doesn’t plan on is stumbling across a poacher on his new land, and a redheaded, beautiful one, to boot. And seeing such an innocent girl out on her own stirs up a protective gene he never knew was lodged in his soul. Gretchen Nelson ran away from her abusive father, only to find herself being dragged to the altar by another. Now she’s saddled with an overbearing rancher with a penchant for putting his hands on her ass, and teaching her about dark things in the bedroom she never could have conceived of—but which she comes to crave. Soon both their pasts catch up with them and threaten to tear down the fabric of the life they’ve built together. The bond between them will be tried and tested, but will it be enough to hold them together?

    No fantasy--however dark and dirty and depraved it may be--is forbidden. You have no past, no inhibitions, no morals...and no memory.All you have to cling to is the memory of a scorching touch, a searing kiss, the wet slide of skin on skin, and the heat of breath across your flesh.Step forward...Turn the knob...Step through into THE BLACK ROOM.

    Her boss, Jeremy Andrews, is enchanted by the young lady who becomes his Little girl. When she feels a special connection with his best friend, will the two men be able to accept that Shelby needs both of them to be fully happy? As she sat in the deep seat, Shelby’s mind was racing. “What kind of punishment is he talking about?” she asked herself as a picture of her nude body stretched over Jeremy’s strong thighs flashed into her brain. Just as her fantasy portrayed Jeremy’s hand about to spank her bottom, he opened the door. He paused with his lower half framed in the open doorway for several seconds as if he knew she had been picturing his thighs under her body. Leaning in, he unbuckled her seat belt and helped her out of the car. Silently, he escorted her into the restaurant. Jeremy watched her face as the waiter listed the specials and asked if they wished anything to drink. Realizing that Shelby was lost in her thoughts, he ordered drinks for the two of them. Placing his hand over hers that moved restlessly in her lap, Jeremy watched her jump slightly before she lifted her eyes to meet his. “What kind of punishment?” she whispered urgently. “Most Little girls find a spanking helps them learn to stop bad habits,” Jeremy said conversationally as he looked over the menu. Pepper North introduces you to a new age play community. Shelby's story introduces you to the first residents in this community that is isolated from the surrounding world. Here Littles can be Little and Daddies can take care of their Little ones carefully. As always, Pepper's books feature invasive medical treatments, diaper changes, spankings, and other punishments. If you are offended by age play (adults who choose to live as a Little or a parent of a Little), or dubious consent, this is not the book for you.

I took a deep breath, struggling not to lose control completely."I knew you didn't do it.""You don't f**king know me, Rose. Does this look innocent to you? Huh?" I pointed to the spare bedroom with the lock dangling from its metal closure."I'm Lily now," she whispered as she wrapped her arms around herself.

She had awakened an animal inside of me, and as I spat my hatred at her I could still taste her on my tongue. I hated myself for giving in to her. Tears welled in her eyes and her chin quivered as she struggled to keep from breaking down. I cupped her cheek, running the pad of my finger over her silky skin. "Don't cry, Rose. Things are just about to get fun." I placed a gentle kiss over her lower lip and ran my thumb over it, soothing her. "Can you taste that, Rose?" All traces of anger had left my voice, but something had snapped inside of me. "I can still taste your sweetness, still smell you all over me." I leaned down and ran my nose up the curve of her neck, inhaling. I grabbed her wrist as my mouth reached her ear."Look what you're doing to me, Rose." I placed her hand on my jeans so she could feel how stiff my c**k was from just thinking about her. She tried to pull back but I tightened my grip and held her against me. "Do you still think I'm the good guy?"Warning: This novel is intended for readers 18 yrs. older
