Fiona goes undercover for a story about a professional Dom and his unique therapy business.
Fiona O’Reilly didn’t get it. Why would her best friend even consider submitting to her husband’s discipline? She was a grown woman, smart and yet she accepted being occasionally spanked. She just didn’t understand, but she knew they were in love. Love could be strange sometimes. Still, she couldn’t imagine ever letting some man turn her over his knee and apply his hand to her bottom. No, not possible. It did make her curious, though. And when she gets a chance as a freelance journalist to go undercover at a unique therapy place that specializes in “old-fashioned domestic discipline” and more, she hesitates but can’t resist the opportunity. It’s more than she expected for many reasons.
Armando Rossi knew that his was a strange career, being a professional Dom in a behavioral therapy practice that dealt in a physically applied method of therapy. He’d been groomed to go into the family wine business, but that hadn’t worked out. This fulfilled some of his needs. Yet he’d grown tired of his work. The surprising demand for his services was wearing on him. He needed a change, a new challenge. Then a beautiful young woman, clearly intelligent and far different from any other staff employee they have ever had, applies for the recently vacated maid position. After he loosely explains their “services,” he is certain she will leave the interview. When she doesn’t, he warns her there could be “consequences” for misbehavior or a job done poorly. Still, she insists she wants the job. He doesn’t for a second believe she’s really there for the maid job. He shouldn’t hire her and his partner definitely doesn’t want Fiona there. But he can’t resist this secretive woman or the challenge she brings to his life.
Excerpt
She just didn’t get it. “How can you…well, let him do that to you?”
Bridget gave her one of those I’m-goofy-in-love looks. “Because I love him.” She smiled. “You would understand if you ever….”
“I’ve been in love before,” she huffed in annoyance. She saw the pitying look in her friend’s eyes and focused on her barely touched cinnamon roll. Okay, she had recently lived in Denver for a year with a guy she’d thought would be her forever-after man. Wrong. So very wrong. And, truthfully, she hadn’t been all that upset to watch his taut ass walk a final time out the door. She wanted the kind of love Bridget had with Ted. Not the discipline part of it, but the rest of it.
As if Bridget had read some of her thoughts, she shook her head and waved the piece of croissant at her. “Don’t rule something completely out until you’ve at least tried a taste of it.”
She flashed an impish grin. “Certain spankings can be a serious turn on.”
She couldn’t imagine that…and yet.
Oddly, her heart skipped a merry beat as her naughty mind envisioned being tipped over a stud muffin’s lap with his hand lightly patting—just patting—her bottom. And then his fingers moved….
“…anyway, I think it would be the perfect project for you.”
She clearly realized she must have spaced off while thinking about a subject that had only recently become of curious interest to her. She met Bridget’s eyes. “I missed part of what you said. What would be a good project for me?” Being a want-to-be novelist and a semi-full-time freelance writer, she was always looking for something good. Preferably something that would help grow her reputation.
“Ted told me about this unique specialized therapy service he’d heard about. Very private, very selective, and not too far from here.” Bridget waggled her eyebrows. “Very naughty. Well, okay, sort of.”
She sensed a story and smiled. “Tell me more. You had me at the hint of unique and specialized. Private and naughty are just bonuses.”
