I just realised that I forgot to point out in my review of Elizabeth's Flight that Susan Thomas has also recently launched her own site, which has been added to the blogroll on the right. I look forward to visiting for tidbits of news as well as hearing about any upcoming releases.
Sarah and Stephen’s story began here Sarah tried not to feel silly, tied to door. Even with the curtains pulled, the bright afternoon sunlight lent a cheery air to the sitting room, an atmosphere she’d tried to cultivate in her home but one which didn’t exactly help her enter a submissive frame of mind. … Continue reading Intensive Coursework: Afternoon Delight

As with all of her books, there are plenty of spankings,and plenty of twists to keep the story moving along. While the plot is a touch fanciful, the central characters are each very well-rounded and believable. … Continue reading Book of the Month: Elizabeth’s Flight
One of my goals when I started blogging was to present a balanced, realistic view of what it is like entering into the world of spanking from the viewpoint of an inexperienced spankee.
