Saturday Spankings - In trouble again

Welcome to Saturday Spankings! We’re getting our first blast of cold air this weekend and I’m not thrilled. I’m going to be selling my books at a craft show this weekend (indoors, thank goodness) so I hope you’ll wish me luck.

For the past few weeks, I’ve told you how Cassie and Tom met. In today’s snippet from Cassie’s Space, we’re coming thirty some year into their marriage. Tom has to be away for a few days and Cassie has invited Sue and Annie to come keep her company. Unfortunately, coming home from the airport after picking up the girls, Cassie was stopped for speeding. Although she knows Tom never wants her keeping things from him, she agonizes over when to tell him.

I couldn’t decide if it would be better to tell him before he got home. Would his anger dissipate a bit, or would he just stew for several days? I also didn’t want to tell him on his first night home and spoil our reunion. However, if I waited until the next morning, he would probably be mad that I waited. I just couldn’t think of a good time to tell him.

I finally realized I had to tell Tom about the ticket before he got home. I decided to tell him when he called, but it still didn’t work out as I’d planned. He called tonight and we’d only talked for a few minutes when he asked, “What’s wrong?”

I found it so annoying to have a husband who could tell by the sound of my voice that there was a problem. Being a capable, mature woman who can handle everything in my life, except Tom, I did what any strong woman would do, I burst into tears. I hadn’t planned it—I’d just felt like one raw bundle of nerves for two days. Tom kept repeating, “Are you hurt? Are you hurt?”  

I managed to sob out, “No, I’m fine. It’s just...”

Tom let me cry a minute before asking, “What have you done, girl?”

“I got a stupid speeding ticket coming back from the airport. I’m sorry, honey.” I still sniffed, but I managed to say it all without tears. “It was my fault, I know. We all just got to talking and I guess I forgot to pay attention.”

“All right, girl. But why didn’t you tell me yesterday? You know I don’t like you keeping things from me. Why didn’t you say anything?”

“Because I’m an idiot and I hoped to avoid the inevitable,” I told him plainly. “I don’t like you mad at me when you’re away. I planned on telling you today, I promise.” I continued to cry a little and Tom told me to take a deep breath and relax.

“Stop worrying, girl. I’ll take care of everything when I get home.” I guessed he meant both the ticket and me. He didn’t seem as mad as I thought he’d be, or else he was just saved it until he got home.

We talked for a long time. I love him so much. During most of the conversation Tom seemed to try to make me feel better. I felt like a huge weight lifted off my shoulders. Tom was still Tom though—as he got ready to hang up he told me, “I’ve missed you and I’m really looking forward to getting home. But you might want to take care of any sitting you want to do before I get there.”

Oh, I knew what to expect, but I just didn’t want to think about it. I just wanted him home.

             Meet Cassie, a former wild child, who meets her match, and creates the match of a lifetime. Cassie has survived emotionally distant parents and an abusive marriage. Widowed young, with plenty of money, she turns her energies to partying twenty-four/seven, until Tom spots her at a party. To nearly all who know her now, Cassie is a vivacious, sweet southern lady, who is the epitome of grace and proper behavior. Look a tiny bit closer and you’ll see Cassie has another side – the one whose language could make a sailor blush as she drinks him under the table. Thanks to her loving husband Tom, who never hesitates to put Cassie over his knee when she strays too far from his view of ladylike behavior, few people other than close old friends knew this side of Cassie exists. Cassie shares many stories of their early marriage, as she tries to adjust to Tom’s belief in the power of the hairbrush.

                Cassie wouldn’t change her life for anything. As she says, “There are two things I want everyone to take away from our stories. First there is nothing wrong with an old-fashioned marriage where the husband guides and protects the wife and there is certainly nothing wrong with the wife trying to get away with as much as possible.

                "Second, and most important, I hope our stories convey that love and passion are not the sole property of the young. Love and passion grows and changes with age. While aging may bring on challenges – the love and passion between two people only grows stronger." 

 Cassie’s Space series

These nine 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 couples. The spanking in their relationship began mere minutes after they met, and Cal hasn’t let up much since. Their 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.
