FRONT EXCERPT:
'You're not going to - to spank me?'
'Oh, but I am, my dear. I most certainly am. I'm going to do just what your own father sadly neglected to do: that is, put you across my knee, take down your knickers, and then -' Matthew's voice slowed, and he gazed almost hypnotically into Susie's eyes, gauging her reaction to his words '- and then, Susie, I shall spank you - spank you very, very soundly indeed on your soft bare bottom. Spank you lovingly, long and hard, just as you deserve; spank you until every inch of your pretty young bottom is blushing rosy red; spank you until you wail and plead for mercy; spank you, Susie, until your sweet bottom is scarlet and tender and burning hot and you're very, very sorry for what you've done.'
With each reiteration of the word 'spank', Matthew's hand lightly slapped Susie's rear end, making her plump cheeks quiver through the thin fabric of her trousers. Now he smiled at her - a smile of great warmth and kindness, full of a sense of coming joy.
'That, my dear Susie, is what's about to happen to you. As I said, you have a beautiful bottom: full and soft and round, the kind of bottom that's absolutely made to be spanked. More's the pity that nobody's done so - until now.'
IF YOU LIKE THAT, YOU'LL LOVE THIS BOOK!!
It is an absolutely charming read, which started out so fantastically that I thought it couldn't get any better ... until the author visited such classics as Jane Eyre (Ooh, Mr Rochester!!) and The Importance of Being Earnest!
Each of the eighteen stories feels complete, and ends so positively that you can't help but smile upon finishing it! (In fact, the whole book feels as though you are reading sunshine it is so joyous!) And I adored the author's wordplay (especially at the end of 'Blushing Bride' - punched the air in delight!)
All in all, a fantastic buy, and I very much hope that the author goes on to write many more books! - Although in the meantime, this is definitely one I will be going back to again ... and again ... and again!!
