I have been a wife and mother for over twenty years. Now I am becoming my husband's lover, too.
We owe it all to my fellow bloggers who gave me the courage to come out to my husband as a spanko.
I do feel like this is a New Beginning for us.

Saturday Snippets



     Another Saturday full of snippets has rolled around, and I'm happy to be participating again in Saturday Spankings. I’m afraid my TBR list is growing at an alarming rate. I’ve been putting up snippets from Cassie’s Space, coming in December and also from many works in progress. There is a lot of Cassie in my head. Today's snippet is from this first book.
This time Cassie has gotten herself if more hot water than ever. She knew from the time she began this deception, that Tom would be furious if he ever found out. She’s lied and kept him in the dark for months, but she knows she can’t keep it up. She’s decided its time to come clean, but its not easy. She had planned to tell him as they drove to their vacation destination, but she just couldn’t make herself begin. Now, at dinner, she still she hasn’t managed to say a word.


At dinner the food looked superb, I tried to eat, but I just couldn’t. I felt like my throat was closing up. I moved the food around on my plate as Tom ate. When the waiter asked if we’d like dessert I quickly shook my head no. Tom often teases me that my favorite part of dining out is the desserts. I could feel him looking at me as I stared at my plate.
“Cassie? You haven’t eating a thing and you're so quiet. What’s wrong?”
My heart began pounding as I realized I’d reached the moment of truth. “I have something to tell you.” I managed to get out.
I don’t know what my face looked like. But Tom immediately asked, “Are you sick, is something wrong?”
I shook my head no. Tom looked at me a minute longer, then finally said, “It’s not something little is it, Honey?”
Again I shook my head no.
I could tell Tom was tense as he paid the bill. We didn’t talk on the way back to the hotel. Tom held my hand as we walked, a good thing. I was fighting the urge to bolt.

Please go by and check our all the other great snippets.

  1. I love Tom's consideration for Cassie. He might not like hearing what she's about to tell him, but he obviously cares very deeply for her. Great snippet, PK.

      I always want the love the two of them share to be the strongest emotion in the story. Thanks, Kathryn.

  2. What made me laugh is the detail about enjoying dessert more than the meal. Reminds me of a friend who eats his dessert in the restaurant and puts most of his meal in a doggy bag. Those little details are what make Cassie's story come alive. You've got such a nice voice in these stories.

      Cassie's personality and idiosyncrasies are so well know to me. I'm glad she comes across as real to others. Thanks for coming by Ana.

  3. I need to know what's bothering her. It's clear that it's something serious.
    Tom's concern only adds to my curiosity.

    Tasty little tease, PK.

    1. Thanks, LA. Cassie knows Tom will view it as serious so I guess she better.

  4. I like the line "it's not something little, is it honey" but yet he doesn't press her in public, he's willing to wait... Lovely details

      You know how many characters simply write their own lines and we just take dictation. I felt the same as you when I first hear Tom say this.

  6. PK you tease. The connection between Tom and Cassie is palpable and makes me crave more but your tell me I have to wait until December? Not fair I say! 8 sentences each week is not enough to satisfy my hunger for more of this couple. I love them already.

      He loves her to death no matter what's she's done. But that sure doesn't make the spanking any less intense.

      Cassie usually waits until she gets caught, the idea of telling on herself is really freaking her out.

      Knowing what's coming is killing her - not only the spanking, but Tom's anger and disappoint.

    1. Abbie,
      I can't tell you all Cassie's secrets - who would buy her books if I did that, LOL! I'm really jumping around in her stories grabbing something from her and another from there. Hopefully, it will be years before the end to all the snippets will be told - is that mean?
