Spread the word - Office Work is out

There are times you need a simple, easy, sexy read to hit the spot. No drama, no heavy emotion, nothing other than a bunch of people having fun. 

If you need such a release, Office Work is for you. And it's your lucky day, because it's now available at All Romance eBooks and Amazon!

This super short tale begins when Roger overhears a co-worker talking dirty on the phone. Being a team player, he steps in to give Melinda a helping hand.


As the phone call continues, it's apparent more participation is required. Soon, this small office of five employees show the true meaning of teamwork. 

Barb Hicks reviewed Office Work and said, "... thank you. Saying it was burning hot would be a mild description."

Whew - I'm here!

Hello and Happy Monday and Martin Luther King, Jr. Day!

It's great to be back. And let me be the first to tell you, I have amazing plans for 2013. In order to make this year fantastic though, I'm going to do things a little different on my blog. You'll notice the change up in the order of events to the right, in that there is no order of events any more.

The prevailing change for me is that I need to write more. I'm going to write more. I don't have an evil day job (yes, lucky me), but I don't stay at home with free time to write to my hearts content. I could, but I have three precocious boys I teach every day. Between family needs that go even beyond this mountain, I only have a miniscule amount of time to write. I know of several friends who scoff at me with plenty of suggestions of how I could have more time to write. I laugh with them because they're right. However, I have weighed the differences and this is a choice I can live with, happily.

Given my decisions, first, I don't whine about short writing times. In my head, of course, there are times I do, but I know it's a choice I've made. Second, I've been learning to organize my time. I roll my eyes with this one because I always thought I was organized, until I burned out last year. Wow. Lesson learned. I've decided I'm going to PLAN and SCHEDULE, in ways I've not allowed myself before. Will I be able to follow this? God, I hope so. If not, I'll just try again.

I will continue to post biweekly on Castles and Guns, and monthly on Hitting the Hot Spot. I will also continue to participate in a few blog hops. But as for my blog here, I'm paring it back. I will have a new order for each week, but that will be another week or two in coming. Right now, I'm going back to the free-style blogging. My thoughts, on screen, for the world to see (oh no! Say it isn't so!) hahaha. A big reason is that in trying to decide how I want my weekly blog to flow, I overdid it again. I wanted to pare it back, but on paper, ended up with so many "things" I want to do, that I didn't have room each week. How am I going to write more stories if I'm blogging eight, nine, ten times a week? I know there are those out there who do - and major kudos to them - but that's not me. 

So, stop by when you can. I'll be sure to share when I make a new post. 

Enjoy your Monday, and your upcoming week, and thanks for sticking around!

Serena’s Prince
Forever Wicked (#9)

By Ayla Ruse
 
Erotic Romance, Novella, Paranormal, BDSM

A frog, a curse and a broken promise. Sometimes punishment can be its own reward.

Serena never thought asking for help from a frog would result in her being naked and tied to her bed. She should be afraid. She should call for the guards. She definitely should not be… begging for more.
Prince Rennick needs to get his hands on Serena’s necklace -- the one item sure to break the curse that turned him into a frog. When an accident makes him temporarily human, he cannot help but use his dominant nature to bend Serena to his will.
What should have broken the curse turns into a desperate attempt to save Rennick’s life. As they try to find the key, Rennick demands much from Serena, but is she willing to surrender everything to this frog-turned-prince? 

Excerpt (R):

“And the real Serena is coming out,” he said sarcastically, chuckling. She was not amused. “You are too innocent to understand why I left the bed. I’ve not been with a woman since the curse was put upon me. And I don’t like to rush anything I do.”

“But --“

“Do not interrupt, please.” He stroked her cheek. “I will love your body. I will give you pleasure such as you have never known, but the time will be spent as I dictate.”

“What do you --“

Her words ended on a cry as he twisted one of her nipples. “I asked you not to interrupt, pet. You will do as I say. You will not disobey, or you will be punished. You will not argue, or you will be punished. If I want you to lie here for the next two hours while I stare at you, you will not complain. Am I understood?”

Serena blinked. Was the man insane? “You’ve got to be kidding.”

He popped his hand between her legs, the stinging slap on her pussy at once painful and exciting. “I never kid, Serena. Yes, I will make demands of you, but trust me when I say the rewards will be well worth your obedience.”

His words warred within her. It sounded exciting, but scary. What if he did something she didn’t like? She was about to ask, but he’d moved and was untying her arms. Before she could register what he was about, he pulled her over his lap with her butt thrust up in the air.

“Hey, wait. What are you doing?”

He held one hand on the back of her neck, keeping her upper body pushed down toward the floor.

“You, my darling, are in need of a spanking. You were unkind to me this week, and you’re showing belligerence now. I’ll serve you ten, and you must count them for me.”

“You can’t spank me!” she cried out, indignant that he thought he could do this to her.

He gave her bottom a sharp swat and she yelped, stilling under the unexpected strike.

“That’s better. Have you ever been spanked, Serena?”

“As a child.”

“Good. But just because you grow up doesn’t mean you outgrow the need for discipline from time to time. If you were to be with me, you would understand my word is law. If you disobey, you must be disciplined.”

“But –- hey, what are you doing?” She squirmed as cool air hit the backs of her legs. Before she could take another breath, he’d yanked her gown up her body and down off her head. Her eyes stared at the pool of silk, now a puddle on the floor. Unfortunately, this was not how she’d expected to be naked with the man. She wiggled more, not giving up her attempts to get off his lap.

When he slid his hand over her bottom, however, her traitorous body went pliant over his legs. She couldn’t fight this. She liked the rough feel of his touch. She shifted, and her hip bumped his erection. His sharp intake of air told her he felt it, too. She smiled and tried to rub against him again, but when his hand struck her bottom, all thoughts of seduction fled.

“Ow!”

“No, that was one. Say the numbers out loud, please.”

“No, I won’t –-“

He slammed his hand against her again.

“You will say the numbers, or I’ll continue to spank you until you do. You’re to listen to me now, Serena.”
