Second Chances


Megan Michaels - 2015
    What was a woman supposed to do with one dead husband, one untended farm, and zero options? Strength, sass, and a never-give-up attitude had served Sophie well, but after the death of her strict, but loving, Clive, she’d need a lot more than those qualities to survive. There might be one way though, one last desperate option... and they called it the Widow Wagon. Widows and their children could purchase safe passage in a covered wagon to the Oregon Territory — where they would all meet up with the strong, determined men looking for mail order brides. The Widow Wagon might be one man’s last, best hope. For Daniel Weston, losing his beloved wife had broken more than his heart, it had broken his confidence that he could conquer the west. From the first moment he set eyes on Sophie he knew he wanted her, to make her his in every way. Her dramatic curves, bewitching eyes and fiery temper drew him, called to him, fired his possessive lust. But would that attraction be enough? He could already tell there was going to be a reckoning — and that reckoning would be the heated meeting of his work-roughened palm with her soft, bare bottom. Yes, she was beautiful, intelligent, and with a little more attitude than would be good for the health of her backside, but Daniel thought he had what it took to break the spirited filly. What’s more, could Daniel dare hope for a second chance? How she reacted that first time he bent her over his lap — or strung her up in his barn — might be the key to whether or not this marriage of convenience in the American west might bloom into something so much more. Would this young, headstrong, mail-order bride allow herself to be molded, tempered, and disciplined into the woman — and wife — this demanding, dominant frontier man desired?

Shared and Examined


Bella Jackson - 2015
    Stranger still, the room is decorated as though it were meant for a small child but the bed is adult-sized. Her curiosity turns to shock when she discovers that not only is the nursery attached to a large stately home, but a man named Edward lives in the house and has apparently been expecting her. To make matters worse, when Kathryn demands an explanation of the situation, Edward merely pulls her over his lap, bares her bottom, and spanks her soundly. Lord Edward, the Earl of Kendrick, and Doctor Phillip Gates live together at Ferngrove Manor as both close companions and lovers. While they find deep happiness in their relationship, both men desire a woman to share and enjoy together, and thus they elected to contact Miss Pritchard’s Training School for Little Ladies in America to ask that a woman be sent to them. Though Edward and Phillip find the circumstances of Kathryn’s arrival odd, from the moment they meet her they are completely smitten by her beauty and her obvious need for discipline. She seems confused about some of the details of her contract with them, probably as a result of falling ill during her journey from America, but both men are confident in Phillip’s abilities as a doctor. It may require more than one thorough, intimate examination and a variety of treatments which Kathryn will no doubt find quite humiliating, but she’ll be healthy in no time. As she learns to be a good girl for Edward and Phillip—with the help of a bare-bottom spanking whenever she misbehaves—Kathryn finds that their firm discipline and loving care soothe a part of her that she’s kept hidden away her entire life. But is she truly prepared to leave behind her life in the twenty-first century and become their little girl?
