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 Spankings - Danger in town

Welcome to Saturday Spankings. In today's snippet from Secrets on the River, all the ladies of the landing took the day to go shopping for baby things and other needs. After a big lunch, they split up to go to different stores. Cassie and Sue chose to get ice cream – something that seemed like a safe pursuit. It turned out not to be. 


Cassie and Sue strolled down the street licking their cones, in search of a bench in the shade when all hell broke loose.

One moment they were talking and walking and, the next, fighting for their lives. All Cassie registered was a skinny young man running toward them. Startled, they separated to give him room to pass between them. As he did, he yanked at Sue’s purse. She had the strap across her body, and he jerked her violently when it didn’t come loose. Her ice cream tumbled as she instinctively grabbed for the strap.

“Bitch!” the man shouted, as he punched Sue in the face with his fist. The strap snapped and he gave Sue an angry push, sending her stumbling off the curb and nearly into oncoming traffic. She cried out, then fell hard.

“Don’t you touch her!” Cassie screamed and without thought jumped onto the man’s back. Digging her fingernails into his face, she shouted, “Help!”

The man, not much more than a boy, had mistakenly thought snatching a purse from a little old lady would be quick and easy. He soon realized his error and now wished desperately to escape.

“Get off me!” he yelled. He jerked around so violently that Cassie lost her grip and sailed back into a parked car. Her wrist slammed sharply into the side mirror before she slid to the ground.

The man barely glanced at her before he took off running. But he had chosen the wrong women to attack that day. Hearing the commotion on the street, people were coming out of shop doors to see what was happening. Lane pushed open the door of the bookshop with Annie and Allie close behind. She spotted Cassie on the sidewalk at the same moment she saw the man with Sue’s purse in his hand. Without a thought, she ran and tackled him, just as she’d seen her brothers do when they’d played football.

The man, cursing at full volume, tried to kick her away just as Jenny, racing from the Williams Sonoma store, landed on him too. Her fury gave her five-foot two-inch frame strength she didn’t know she had as she shoved his face into the pavement, screaming, “You son-of-a-bitch!”

Sirens wailed as a police car pulled up. The moment they had the hapless thief in cuffs, Jenny and Lane raced back to Cassie and Sue. Allie sat with Cassie, trying to calm her as Lily knelt by Sue. Allie spoke soothingly, instructing Cassie to be still. Annie was dashing between the two.

“Help me up,” Cassie demanded. “I know Sue’s hurt. Go help her!” Cassie was in obvious pain, clutching her left arm to her chest, but her worry for Sue wiped her own pain from her thoughts.

“Lily’s got her,” Jenny told Cassie as she knelt beside her. “Where all do you hurt?” she questioned.

“It’s nothing. Please check on Sue,” Cassie cried.

Annie rushed over. “How is she?” Cassie questioned before Annie could speak. Annie didn’t answer but her frightened eyes told Cassie more than she wanted to know.


Everyone has secrets, but most don’t have major implications. When Jenny tries to keep her weekend activities from Cal, the repercussions of him finding out land only on her. But some secrets are bigger and more far reaching. You would think that as long as Cassie, Sue and Annie have known each other, surely they could have no real secrets from one another. But you’d be surprised. The full truth behind one secret may never be known, another could change the face of The Landing forever.

From steamy sex to both playful and painful spankings, the people on the river continue to live and love and marvel at all that are learning.
Cassie’s Space series

 Cassie’s Space series

 

These ten books introduce Cassie. She is my friend and has been since she wandered into my imagination fifty-four years ago. She is married to Tom, the man who loves her in a way that makes my heart nearly burst with happiness for the two of them. He loves her, guides her, protects her and when necessary, spanks the fool out of her. I’ve been told that their adventures are exciting, funny and realistic. Their love-life is passionate and fulfilling – but you’ll hear no graphic details, Cassie is a lady and giving too much detail would not be proper.



Cal’s Law series

 

Cal and Jenny are one of my younger couple. The spanking in their relationship began mere minutes after they met, and Cal hasn’t let up much since. There relationship has it’s struggles, but these two are meant to be together. They live in the same town as Cassie and Tom and there is a lot of interactions among the character of both series. Jenny is not as reluctant as Cassie to openly discuss her sex life, so you’ll find a little more spice in this series.


 

On the River series

 

In this, my latest series, everyone is around – all the characters I’ve grown to love over the years are living on the area of the river that they call The Landing. Their lives, their adventures, even their spankings sometimes intertwine. By this time in the series, I’m just typing as my characters tell me what’s happening. And I love it!


These books do take you through time as it passes, but please don’t think you have to read them in order. Start anywhere. Just grab one and give it a try. If you are a spanking enthusiast, I know you'll enjoy it.

 

I’ll close today with a review on the latest book. This is one of the finest reviews I’ve ever had. 

 

Starting with the first Cassie book until now, I have never been disappointed or failed to wait expectantly for the next one.

Saturday Spankings - What's wrong with our sex life?

Welcome to Saturday Spankings. We’re into snippets from Secrets on the River. When Cal told Jenny he wanted to talk about their sex life Jenny was stunned. She thought their sex life was perfect.


“What’s wrong with our sex life?”

“Nothing!” Cal told her hastily. “I just want to talk.”

Jenny sat on one end of the sofa, pulling her knees up and wrapping her arms around her legs. She felt vulnerable and a little defensive. How can Cal possibly complain about our sex life?

Cal sat close and reached for her hand. “You know that you can always say no to me, don’t you? I mean about anything sexual.”

Jenny gave him a bewildered look. 

“Jenny, it’s just that… being married to someone as beautiful, loving and sexy as you does things to me. You’ve rekindled every teenage fantasy I ever had. And every time I’ve suggested something, you’ve said yes. Even when it might be uncomfortable for you at first. I have to know that you know you can refuse anything I suggest. You can say no before we start or even if we’re right in the middle of something. You can always say stop and I will. Are you hearing me?”

“Where is this coming from, Cal? Of course, I know you’d stop anything if I asked you to. I’ve even said no to a few things. Absolutely no ball gags. I want to be able to talk for one thing and drooling around a ball is not a sexy image. And I said no to the nipple clamps the first time you used them and you took them off before I got the words out of my mouth. But later I wanted to try them and now I like them. So seriously, where is this coming from?”

“You know I helped Mama move around some of the heavy furniture in the attic today.”

“Yeah, Lane and I are helping her go through some of the other stuff later this week.”

“I know,” Cal laughed. “That’s why I got one of those old boxes out of there today.  All my brothers called to remind me.”

“What did you have up there, sex toys?” Jenny demanded.

“No, magazines. My brothers and I were friends with this old man who lived out in the swamp. He had tons of magazines and when we’d bring him a big catfish or a rabbit, he’d give us some. He had Playboys and Hustlers but his largest collection concentrated on spanking. One was called Whispers and the other one was Janus. He had a lot of those.”

Jenny was beginning to uncoil from her near fetal position.  She gave Cal a big grin. “You’re saying you’ve had some of these fantasies since you were a teenager and you’ve never tried them?”

“Well,” Cal looked a little sheepishly. “We’ve tried some. But a lot of my memories got stirred up today and …” his voice trailed off.

“Darlin’ as far as I know I’m willing to try anything you got,” Jenny told him. “And if I really don’t like it, I’ll tell you to stop. I think safe words are silly. You know I’ll say ‘stop’, ‘no, don’t do that’, or ‘please, no.’ That’s all part of the fun. But if I say, ‘No, Cal I really don’t want to do this’, you’ll be able to tell from the tone of my voice that I mean it.”

He nodded. She was right. He always paid close attention and he could tell when she really didn’t like something. 

“Umm… could I throw in a few fantasies of my own?” Jenny asked.

Cal’s eyes brightened. “Of course! Anything you like.”

 “So, you got anything special planned for tonight?” she asked with enthusiasm. 

“Just ideas floating in my head for now. But you won’t have to wait long, I promise.”

Cal stood and took her hand. Leading her to the bedroom he asked, “What are your thoughts on canes?”

“Canes! Um… that they’d hurt like hell?” she answered. “And I don’t think I’d look great in stripes,” she added.

“I didn’t hear you say, ‘No, Cal. I really don’t want to do that.’”

Jenny smiled at him. “Nope, you didn’t, did you?”

Cal quickly undressed Jenny and she lay back on the bed waiting for him. 

Climbing onto the bed, Cal sat astride her. He cupped her breasts and leaned over sucking one nipple, then the other. Sitting up he asked, “Honey, have you ever played with ginger?”

“Have I ever played what with ginger?” she asked confused.

Cal smiled as he thought about the coming months. This was going to be so much fun.


Everyone has secrets, but most don’t have major implications. When Jenny tries to keep her weekend activities from Cal, the repercussions of him finding out land only on her. But some secrets are bigger and more far reaching. You would think that as long as Cassie, Sue and Annie have known each other, surely they could have no real secrets from one another.

Catching up in real life

I haven’t posted anything about me lately. Let’s do a little catching up. Back in January Nick and I decided to redo our back bathroom. I’d only been asking him to do it for the past 42 years and I have learned that I can make any changes I want in the house as long as I don’t mind waiting, and waiting and waiting…

But here you have a before and after. It’s no bigger, but it sure is nicer and I love the new look.

before:



After:


I went on my writing weekend up in the mountains and it was wonderful. On a good day, a really good day I get about a thousand words written. I was in the mountains for three days and got over nine thousand words. I think I may have to move up there to get this book finished. But seriously I believe it will be out before the end of the year.

I’ve had good luck with my plants this year. I love the color of my hibiscus and here are a few cuttings with my beautiful Sophie.



The kids are doing well. Mollie had a great summer. She and her friends took a trip to Florida, she went zip lining with her dad for his birthday (no I didn’t go) and there’s a beautiful lake nearby that does moonlight canoeing during the full moons in the summer. She and her friends did that, Mollie took her paddle board. She just started back to school, but she doesn’t really seem to mind. She really likes teaching.

LJ and Collin are doing well also. They stay very busy but they both seem to like their jobs very much and LJ has even gotten to do a little acting this summer. They got two new kittens back in January and I don’t think they could be any more proud of them it they were human children. I’m always content when my kids are happy.

We had our family reunion last weekend. After weeks of brutal heat, suddenly when we got to the lake house the temps were in the low 70’s and NO humidity. It was sunny and beautiful the whole weekend. One cousin – a world class cook took care of the meals and everyone else brought a dessert. She put all the cakes, cookies, brownies, lemon squares, and rice Krispie treats on the bookshelf. We called it our wall of sugar. Here are a few of her meals.




 I guess that pretty much catches you up on things here. Nick and I are healthy and happy, and so are the children. I can’t ask for much more than that.

Saturday Spankings - Play time for Allie and Ryan

Welcome to Saturday Spankings. We are starting snippets from another book today, Secrets on the River. Allie is now nearly six months pregnant, much to the delight of all the soon to be grandparents on The Landing. Ryan has just come home from work to one of Allie’s favorite times of day, especially when they have time to play.


“Do you have any ideas for supper?” Allie asked. 

“Nope. Anything’s fine. Right now all I want is a shower.”

Allie perked up. “You need any help with that?” she asked.

Ryan turned to her with a suddenly serious look. “Allie, I’m a grown man. I’ve taken showers before. Of course I need help.” Laughing like kids, they hurried toward their bedroom. 

“Did you work hard today?” Allie asked as she unbuttoned his shirt.

“You better believe it. I definitely need all my muscles rubbed and massaged,” Ryan told her. “And what about you? Did you do a good job cleaning all the houses on your list today?”

Allie shrugged, “Not really. I gave them all a lick and a promise. I just didn’t feel much like working today.”

“Allie Marie! Shame on you. We’ve talked about this before. What did I say I was going to do to curb your laziness?”

“Have we?” Allie replied vaguely. “I don’t remember.” She smothered a grin, loving their game. 

“Well, I remember,” Ryan told her in his sternest voice. He reached into the nightstand to pull out the thin paddleball paddle. “I told you I’d spank your butt and that’s what I’m going to do.” Ryan stood holding the paddle. “Take off everything you’re wearing,” he commanded.

When Ryan used that voice Allie felt like putty. Her panties were already damp and she pulled them off and dropped them on the rest of her clothes. She eagerly climbed onto the bed on all fours, her growing belly making lying over his lap no longer feasible.

He started right away with the spanking. Allie nearly giggled at the incredible POP that it made. From the sounds the paddle made, someone not familiar with a real spanking would think this was a most horrible one. But the truth was the thin wooden implement was nearly all bark and very little bite. Ryan had been reluctant to do any spanking once he found out about the baby, but Allie wasn’t going to be denied. 

Ryan continued spanking and began lecturing. “You have a reputation to uphold in the community. You’re a business owner. You have employees counting on your business doing well. You can’t do a half-assed job on a client’s home. You’ll lose customers, the business will go downhill. Is that what you want? And besides, I won’t have people saying my wife is lazy!”

Allie squirmed in delight and the sting began to build. “I’m sorry,” she  cried. “I promise to do better.”

“See that you do,” Ryan told her, giving her one last loud pop. He rubbed her ass, which was now a lovely shade of red, as he helped her from the bed. Allie took the time to give him a meaningful kiss.



Everyone has secrets, but most don’t have major implications. When Jenny tries to keep her weekend activities from Cal, the repercussions of him finding out land only on her. But some secrets are bigger and more far reaching. You would think that as long as Cassie, Sue and Annie have known each other, surely they could have no real secrets from one another.
