Tea and Spanking
Five Stars! The Artist is the story of a nineteenth century painter, Theo and his model, Lizzie. This is the perfect setup for a romance novel because, as we all know, artists are always shagging their models. I have known this to be true since I read Judith Kranz’s Mistral’s Daughter when I was…
Five Stars! Stolen Moments is a fantastically good book. It also, oddly, the first book I’ve read of Maren Smith’s where I kind of wished there was less spanking in it. Not because the spanking in this book isn’t amazing. It is. The hero, Draven Gray, is a satisfying hunk of brawn, intelligence and…
Four Stars The new series of Corbin’s Bend continues in great style with PK Corey’s Returning to Us. This book follows Vanessa Brooks’ Sub-Divided, where the heroine was a spanko who wasn’t sure if she wanted a Domestic Discipline relationship. In contrast, Susan, the heroine of Returning to Us definitely knows that she wants DD. The…
Four Stars Brienne Dubh’s new book is a wonderfully funny hate-to-lust story whose main characters Gabby King and Christian Hunt are a joy to spend time with. Christian is Gabby’s best friend’s brother and they have spent decades since their teens detesting one another. Their barbed insults and name-calling are wickedly entertaining right from the…
Five Stars! Corbin’s Bend is back! And it’s bigger than ever! Well, it may not actually be that much bigger. They’ve probably built a few new houses but otherwise the Bend is pretty much how we last left it. It’s all still there – the spanking-based housing community in the Colorado mountains. There’s a…
Daddy’s Sassy Little Superhero Four Stars Sometimes, it turns out, making one seemingly small decision will have repercussions that will affect your life forever. That’s certainly the case for Caitlyn, the heroine of Adaline Raine’s sweet spanky superhero romance, Daddy’s Sassy Little Superhero. Like Maren Smith’s Daddy Shark which I reviewed last week, this story…
He’s not actually that big. That’d be impractical. Five Stars! There are some superhero powers which really lend themselves to being a Daddy Dom. Super strength would be a great one. Or mind-reading. Kinda turning into a shark, though? Hmmm, not so much. Shark-like transformation, though, is the super-power that Daddy Shark’s hero Ommin…
The Academy Three Stars This is a strange book. Ostensibly it’s the story of a young woman, Karia Daly who is sent to a super-strict academy of higher education in order to study journalism. However, there’s something slightly otherworldly about the whole set-up that is never really addressed. There are occasional references to magic in…
The Assassin and the Soldier Four Stars There’s more than a touch of The Hunger Games about The Assassin and the Soldier and that’s no bad thing. Especially when it is done as well as this. This dystopian story would make a cracking Young Adult Fiction book were it not for the frequent steamy sex…
Marshal Storm. Firm but fair. Five Stars! Marie Hall’s beautifully written Western is a delight to read. I loved it. Protagonists Marshal Chase Storm and Summer Rain are both intelligent, passionate, honourable and incredibly stubborn individuals. So naturally they butt heads for quite a lot of this book. Given that barely a chapter in…
