Finding Their Bliss

Title: Finding Their Bliss (Corbin's Bend #1)

Author: Thianna D.

Publisher: Blushing Books Publications

Pages: 115

Genre: Erotic Spanking Romance

Brent Carmichael loved Corbin's Bend. A small community at the base of the rocky mountains just for spankofiles, he worked tirelessly to make sure everything ran smoothly and that the residents were safe and happy. He never intended to fall in love but when Charmagne Kendle stumbled into his life, he found an attraction he had no intention of fighting. 

Char moved to Corbin's Bend after losing her job, her apartment, and her fiancé all in one day. She had no idea she was actually moving to a spanking community but with the freedom to explore her secret fetish, she found herself happily upended over Brent's lap. 

As their relationship deepened into domestic discipline, her ex appeared wanting her back. Now she had to choose. The rich, handsome, and charming Nathan Korven or former police officer Brent Carmichael. To find her bliss, there was really only one choice.

Thianna loves to read and write. One of her passions is erotica; stories that capture her interest, characters that capture her attention, and sex that turns her attention upside down until she is panting along with the characters themselves.

It has taken me some time to get into Corbin's Bend but after reading Where They Both Belong and Chemistry of Attraction I knew I needed to go on a Corbin's Bend binge. Say that three times fast.

Brent Carmichael works hard to keep Corbin's Bend alive. A community full of Spankos who are free to embrace who they are without judgement. It's easy to see why he built this community especially after learning of his past.

 Charmagne Kendle moved in a rush after her "friend" spilled the beans about her wanting to be spanked. It ruined her career, future marriage, and everthing she held dear. She escapes to Corbin's Bend unaware of what the community entails. As she gets closer to Brent her ex comes back into the picture trying to hurt her and get her back into his life.

There was a sweetness about Finding Their Bliss that dragged me in the first few pages. I absolutely adored Char's name and loved the simplicity of her story. It's a common theme for people who don't understand the lifestyle but doesn't always get recognized. Thianna does a wonderful job setting up the future of Corbin's Bend in Finding Their Bliss.

Kinky Toes

Title: Kinky Toes

Author: Suz deMello

Publisher: Ellora's Cave

ASIN: B00OTU9SBO

Pages: 33

Designer Shelbie Nathanson resents Rick Saldano’s ascension to C.O.O. of her family’s shoe empire, a job she’s wanted all her life. But she finds it hard to resist when she finds out his imagination in the bedroom is a match for her creativity in the boardroom.

And Rick’s passion for peep toes, slingbacks and stilettos goes beyond the purely professional. Soon Shelbie finds herself falling for the foot fetishist.

A Romantica® contemporary erotic romance from Ellora’s Cave

An award-winning, best-selling traditional romance novelist, Suz deMello uses a pseudonym to protect her privacy. But if you're a romance fan, you've probably read her books or have heard of her. She's known for layered, compelling novels charged with humor as well as emotion.

Of her journey to the steamier side of writing, Suz says, "I love writing traditional romances, but after several years in the same mode, I felt that I really needed to cut loose as a creative artist and write hot, sexy books that reflect the wilder side of being human."

Suz's books are fast-paced with seductive situations, complicated characters and a whole lot of kink!
Like many writers, Suz lives more than one life at a time (that's one of our superpowers, along with making cool stuff up). Here's her combined author bio:

This was a quick short read that drew me in quickly. Rick has a passion for women's feet and those sexy heels they wear. Shelbie isn't happy at all about Rick running the company while her father is away. When they are told to go out to dinner and discuss everything surprises are found.

Usually a foot fetish is something I cringe at but Kinky Toes is written in such a classy way that it's subtle. You know there is a foot fetish there but it isn't thrown in your face. I enjoyed this shortie and wouldn't mind reading more from deMello.

This is such a unique twist on an old classic. I truly didn't expect to get as caught up in Red Of The Woods as I did. Red and her grandmother Erthel have been accused of witchcraft and take refuge in the woods. Here Erthel plots her revenge not realizing the consequences it could cause.

From page one you are completely hooked in and have to read until you find out what happens. It was an easy to read story as each sentence flowed into the next. I didn't expect a few of the twists and turns that were thrown but way but overall I really enjoyed Red Of The Woods.

Maid to Submit is a short story of approximately 8,000 words. 

Ally's all dressed up and eager to spend Halloween night with her spanko boyfriend, Mark, but on her way out the door her roommate regretfully informs her that she saw Mark having lunch with another woman. Ally's heartbroken, but she's also angry...angry enough to hurl toilet paper through all the trees in front of Mark's house, among other naughty things. She doesn't plan on being caught red-handed, but she soon finds herself being tossed over Mark's shoulder and carried into his house. 

Mark insists they talk about whatever has Ally so upset, and if he has to hold her captive--or spank her--until she settles down enough to listen, so be it. He informs a stunned Ally that the busty blonde he had lunch with was...his mother! Now he's got his hands full with an apologetic French maid who is very much in need of correction. He's understanding that Ally has some trust issues because of her past, but he certainly won't tolerate such naughty, irresponsible behavior from the woman he loves. He informs her that she's to endure a thorough inspection followed by a hard spanking on her bare bottom, and that's just the beginning of her punishment. 

Will Mark get his errant maid to submit to an ordeal that is sure to leave her blushing? 

Note: This story contains a naughty French maid who looks good in handcuffs, a no-nonsense firefighter with a twitchy palm, bare bottom spankings galore, and other erotic scenes sure to make your e-reader sizzle. Please don't buy this book if such material offends you.

I loved this short story and my only complaint was that it ended too soon! Ally is super excited to surprise her boyfriend, Mark on Halloween night but on her way out the door her roommate informs her that she saw him with another woman. Armed with toilet paper timid Ally grows a pair and sets out for revenge.

Mark catches Ally trashing the front of his house and he can't fathom what got into her except that she is making a huge mess. Once Mark tells Ally the truth she can't help but be embarrassed.

I loved Ally's attitude in Maid To Submit, she was a spitfire character. Maid To Submit is a well written short that is sure to make you want more from Ally and Mark. It's easy to get into and you'll find the story over before your ready.  Fantastic read!

Hemy [Walk Of Shame #2]

Title: Hemy (Walk Of Shame #2)

Author: Victoria Ashley

Publisher: Victoria Ashley

ASIN: B00NKPJDIW

Pages: 143

Genre: Erotic Romance

My name is Hemy Knox and I’m a fucking heartbreaker . . . 

I’ve hurt the one person that means the most to me in life; the only woman I have ever fucking loved. I let the drugs, alcohol and wild life take over; consume me. I got her where I wanted her and ripped her fucking heart out. 

Since then, I’ve spent countless nights having dirty, meaningless sex with a multitude of people; only leaving them wanting and begging for more with no regrets. Some may even call me the devil; soulless. 

They look and judge, but there is one thing they don’t know; no one does. I want more than this life of stripping and sleeping around; the never ending party. I want love and everything that comes with it; that high that never ends. The problem is . . . I only want it with her. 

Onyx. 

She refuses to be mine . . . again. She’s smart and it’s a mother fucking pain in my ass; guarding her heart while ripping mine right out of my chiseled chest. I can’t say that I blame her. I always was a dumb ass when it came to the emotions of a woman, especially her. 

She wants to see me suffer as much as I made her; watch me wither and fucking die at her feet. She wants to crush me until I’m no longer breathing and I will let her, because it hurts far less than not having her as mine. 

I will stop at nothing to make her mine again. The pain only drives me harder; feeding my fury and giving me a reason to live . . . her. 

***Author's note*** Due to strong language and a very high amount of sexual content, this book is not intended for readers under the age of 18. This is #2 in the Walk Of Shame series of novellas that will all be STANDALONE reads. This includes F/M and F/M/M so if you’re not into dirty sex scenes with filthy language, then this book is not for you. If you are . . . then, come meet the dirty boys of Walk Of Shame.

 Once again Walk Of Shame dragged me through the ringer. I was swept up in this story of love, pain, loss, and fear of coming back. Hemy messed up, he has lost Onyx because he couldn't pull himself out of a slump long enough to realize everything he wanted was standing right in front of him.

Onyx has had all she can take. She has been understanding to Hemy and his messed up family but she couldn't take being put second any longer. When Hemy appears back into her life can she move forward or will the past keep its clutches around her heart?

Hemy's story gripped my heart and I knew I had to finish it. I loved how Hemy changed and realized his love for Onyx was always there. Seeing Hemy fight to make Onyx remember the good in their relationship gives all people home. Even the most damaged relationships can be saved.

“If I had not killed Grogan, he would have beaten and used you.”

Urazi had witnessed Grogan striking her, so the first part came as no surprise, but how could he have known the alpha had intended to avail himself of her?

“Do you think I could not read his behavior? That I did not notice him rubbing himself against you? Do you think I am mentally deficient?” Urazi growled. “If I had not intervened, you would have joined forces against Marlix, Dak, and Ilian without knowing it.”

Anika’s face heated with guilt and shame.

“You are impulsive! Rash,” Urazi continued to rail. “You fled without concern for the consequences.”

“I knew the consequences! Marlix would have sent me to Ilian.”

Urazi looked away. “Commander Ilian would have kept you safe.”

“Maybe safety represents the greatest danger of all.”

“Your words do not make sense.”

“I wish to choose what I do. “

“Protocol makes the choice for you.”

“Protocol. Protocol. Protocol! I am sick of Protocol.” Anika stomped around, too angry to remain still.

“It is the way. Our way.”

“Our way allowed Corren, Commander Dak’s beta, to slit my throat and leave me for dead.”

Anika traced the fine scar bisecting her neck. “It allowed Qalin’s guards to hunt Tara and me, to kill Tara’s friend Ramon.”

“That is not the fault of Protocol, but of the individuals involved,” Urazi said.

Anika shook her head. “No. It creates the environment that encourages such behavior.”

“That is incor—”

“Protocol allows the male offspring of my sire to send me to whomever he wishes without concern for my desires.” Anika cut him off.

“Ilian is Alpha. He is the best possible choice for you.”

“Qalin is Alpha, too. Would he not be a best possible choice?”

“Now you speak rubbish.” Urazi turned away.

“You know I am right.”

“I know we all have our duty. In obedience, we achieve honor.”

“Easy for you to say. You are male. Your duty affords you some choices.”

“I am beta. Do you not think I wish for more?” Urazi whipped around, his gray eyes ablaze.

“But I owe my allegiance to Parseon and to my Alpha! I accept that.”

“Well, I do not!” If she had a hammer she would not be able to pound understanding into his stony male brain. He would never empathize with her position. No male could. Anika clenched her hands into fists. If she were a male, she would have punched him by now. Old and new resentments ballooned. If she could not calm herself, she would explode. She would punch him.

Anika stomped toward the forest.

“Come back here!”

She ignored him. He did not get a choice in the matter. Let him see what it was like to have one’s wishes overruled.

“Anika, I warn you….” Urazi’s voice hardened.

She faltered, responding to the command, habit and lifelong training overruling self-determination. But only if she let it. I am more than what I have been taught. Anika whirled around, folded all her fingers except for the middle one, and showed him her hand. Tara had called it flipping the coro and explained it was a very rude, dismissive gesture on Terra. It would be more satisfying if Urazi knew what it meant, but, for now, it was enough that she did. She spun around and marched toward the woods.

Chemistry Of Attraction

Title: Chemistry Of Attraction

Author: Thianna D

Publisher:Blushing Books Publishing

ASIN: B00OBIB52O

Pages: 107

Genre: Erotic Romance

I have a special love and appreciation for Corbin’s Bend and all my stories within it, so when I say I love this story, you can choose to take it with a grain of salt or realize that I actually love this story For so many reasons. Dina is like me. Intelligent – too intelligent sometimes – and having a hard time finding men who are smart enough to take notice of. Brandon more than meets the bill. And what can I say about the hero? Brandon is sweet, dominant, and from Texas – yes, ladies, he owns a Stetson. He also has a few tattoos from his time in the Marines. Oh, yeah, did I mention military as well? Brandon’s got the whole package. (And yes, he has quite the package *grins* Just ask Dina.) But I also like the fact that Brandon has a physical ailment. To me, that just ads to how incredibly attractive the man is. He doesn’t let his arthritis get in the way of what he wants. If you want to try out a Corbin’s Bend book and you haven’t yet? Give Chemistry of Attraction a try. It’s got romance, humor, love, spanking, and lots of hot sex. And a definite happy ending. 

Retired Marine Brandon Delt moves to Corbin’s Bend after his recently divorced wife marries his cousin. Tired of living a non-discipline lifestyle, he fully welcomes the openness of the Corbin’s Bend spanking community. One day he hopes to meet the woman he could make his. He doesn’t expect to meet her on day one.

Carodine Minor is just in Corbin’s Bend for the summer. Just graduated with her master’s degree in chemistry, Dina isn’t sure of her next step in life. Not once has she ever considered being spanked. Logical woman that she is, when she finds herself intrigued by the idea of a hand across her derriere, she asks for a demonstration from Brandon. One demo turns into a wild night of passion neither wants to let go of.

Take one hot summer. Add in an intellectual chemist and a dominant retired Marine. Once the chemistry ignites, combustion is soon to follow.

Thianna D. likes to say she’s eclectic, fun, and just a bit naughty. She writes erotica and erotic romance with both M/F and M/M main characters. No matter what she writes, all the hot scenes support the story instead of the other way around.

She’s also the creator of and acquisition editor for the Corbin’s Bend spanking romance series. Who else wants to be safe, secure, and spanked in Colorado?

There was a momentary silence and then one of his hands rested on her lower back and the other lifted. Slap! His hand came down harder than this afternoon, heat sizzling in its wake. Before she even felt the warmth that bloomed from it, he hit her other cheek. Back and forth he went, covering her entire derriere with hard slaps until her entire rear end felt like a light sunburn.

But she didn’t care. Each smack of his hand lit up something inside of her, something primal, raw, animalistic. Arching her back, she growled softly when his hand slammed right between her cheeks. Each slap produced its own sound, but she barely heard them, her left brain utterly fascinated by the sounds coming out of her own mouth. When his hand came down on that sensitive crease between buttocks and thighs, her logical brain blanked out. What remained was wanton, needy, and craving everything the man at her side could give her.

“More!” she cried out as he hit her sit spot again. Her entire body felt like a coiled spring and she so wanted to be sprung. All she needed was just a few more. Just a few more. Please, just a few more.

Brandon had other plans. “Spread your legs,” he commanded and she rushed to obey, not wanting him to stop. “Fuck, you’re so wet, beauty,” he murmured, the fingers of his spanking hand drifting between her legs, stroking along her clit and delving into her core.

“More,” she whimpered as those wonderfully strong, large fingers began to fuck her, rubbing against something that made her arch more and let out a low keen. So close. She was so close. It wouldn’t take much more to send her over. Damn, he—

Smack!

As his hand that had been on her lower back came down right on her rump, the world exploded. Lights burst in front of her eyes even as her cunt spasmed and she opened her mouth in a silent scream. Her muscles clenched and squeezed, pulling her through the roughest orgasm she had ever felt.

And it wasn’t over yet.

Note: My deepest apologies to Thianna D. This review was supposed to be ready by release day and I didn't have it ready.

When I first started reading Chemistry of Attraction I was drawn in from the first few pages. Dina quickly became my favorite character. She recently graduated and decides to spend the summer at Corbin's Bend unaware of what type of community it is. When her grandparents explain it to her, she finds herself curious and wanting to know more. 

Brandon Delt is a recently divorced retired marine. He decides it's time to stop hiding his true desires and moves to Corbin's Bend. When he meets Dina at the company picnic he knows that she is the one he has been wanting. Can they make it last longer than just the summer?

Thianna D has created a wonderful world that allows the spanking community freedom to practice as they'd like. There is refreshment in this as each Corbin's Bend novel brings it's own twist and flavor. I found myself rooting for Brandon as he put his physical limitations aside and remained strong for Dina. Thianna wove a beautiful relationship of healing and curiosity between these two. Season Two is off with a hit!
