Still going strong on our A to Z posts. It’s great to be
able to blog everyday and have people come by. I hope you’ll enjoy today
Saturday Spankings.
To continue from my snippet from last week, from my first book, Cassie’s Space, Tom wants to know more about the beautiful, young Cassie he has just spotted. The guys explain that Cassie is a rich widow. Tom wants to know more about her marriage and Andy explains…
“Her old man wanted a merger with the
guy’s company and I think he threw Cassie in to sweeten the pot. That sick old
bastard knew the guy beat her and never said a word to him. Once she escaped
her family and the abusive husband, I guess she decided she’d take care of
herself. I just don’t know if she can keep it up.”
“Quite a story,” Tom mused.
“She’s quite a woman,” Andy agreed. “But
honestly, Tom, she’s got more baggage than even you could help carry. She’s not
for you, you’ll get hurt and I don’t want to see that happen.” Andy and Steve
wandered off, leaving Tom watching me and thinking of all they had said.
Without even knowing it, I had made an
impression on the man I would love for the rest of my life.
Meet Cassie, a former wild child, who meets her match, and creates the match of a lifetime. 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 that 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 even after thirty years of marriage, 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 know this side of Cassie exists.
Cassie and Tom show 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 these two people only grows stronger.

I love the 'she's got more baggage than even you could help carry' line. But someone's gotta help her with it, right?
ReplyDeleteNo one had helped so far, but Tom was willing.
DeleteLove that line too! Tom is just the man to help carry the baggage :) Cassie is quite a woman indeed!

ReplyDeleteNormandie, I try to write the books where you can start with any one of them, but are different things you learn in each one.
DeleteThank goodness Tom came into her life.
