Will Franny be able to set her fears of courtship aside and give Samuel Benedict a chance to win her heart?
Hunter's
Ridge Book 4
by Maggie Ryan
Blurb:
In
the fourth book of the bestselling Hunter's Ridge series, we return to visit
the people who have come together for the holidays. Lucy and Louisa continue to
blossom under the stern but loving guidance of Lucas and Edward, every day
being another step along the paths they have chosen.
But
they are not the only ones making choices. Will Franny be able to set her fears
of courtship aside and give Samuel Benedict a chance to win her heart? Or will
that one impulsive, naughty decision she made ruin her chance of finding true
love?
Meanwhile,
not one but three men are vying to capture the heart of the vivacious youngest
Lady Huntington. Ettie discovers that courtship is thrilling, yet she also
learns that there is more than simply love to consider. She knows she needs to
feel adored, but can any one of the three make her feel truly cherished?
What
path do these two young women wish to take and who will take the journey at
their sides?
As
shopping is done and gifts made by loving hands, the house is full of secrets.
Will Lucy decide to share what she has learned? And what exactly is the secret
that Louisa is holding close?
Days
are filled with skating, sleigh rides and racing across the snow covered
fields. Courting abounds, and preparations are made to attend the Grand Ball.
Will love and trust be enough to hold the family together when a night of
enchantment turns into a nightmare, threatening to tear the family apart?

Excerpt:
Walking into the nursery,
Ettie saw the twins already standing in opposite corners, both pushing their
drawers to their ankles. "What are you doing!"
"What does it look
like?" Lucy said. "Getting ready to get my bottom spanked because I
was silly enough to try to keep you out of trouble."
"I didn't mean for this
to happen," Ettie said, "and now Dr. Fielding thinks that I'm some
horrible naughty girl."
"That's what you are
worried about? What he thinks about you? And besides, you are a naughty
girl!" Lucy snapped. "Oh, and by the way, if Nanny Molly comes in
here and finds you out of the corner or talking, she'll add extras."
"Extras?"
Lucy shook her head and
turned to the corner, lifting her dress and petticoats to her waist. She
ignored the gasp she heard from Ettie but closed her eyes. She'd forgotten that
she still had faint wheals across her flanks. Well, it was far too late to
worry about that now. She opened her eyes and saw that Louisa was already in
position, and prayed that Ettie would realize that this would be a perfect
opportunity to obey Nanny Molly's instructions.
When the door opened, Edward,
Lucas and Molly saw that two corners were filled with two sets of quivering
bottom cheeks exposed as drawers were pooled at ankles and dresses held at
waists. In a third, Ettie stood, her hands at her sides. She was the only one
to turn around at the door's opening.
"Pray tell why you have
not prepared yourself properly, Henrietta. Is there some reason you feel it
unnecessary to lift your dress and lower your drawers, young lady?" Molly
said.
Ettie's eyes darted to the
twins and then to the normally sweet woman standing before her, toes tapping
against the floor, arms crossed over her chest. "Um, you never said that
we were to, um…. I guess that Lucy and Louisa often… um, I mean, you just said
stand in the corner."
Molly forced herself to
remain calm. After a deep breath, she spoke. "Pardon me. It was my mistake
in not making my orders clear. Turn around, Henrietta, because I did
specifically state I wished your nose to be in the corner. Place it there
immediately," she said firmly, and though Ettie gave her brother a
pleading look, she reluctantly obeyed.

Author
for Blushing Books. I write both contemporary erotica and historical
spanking romances. I enjoy writing about characters that enjoy the
provocative D/S lifestyle of today’s times as well as taking a step back into
the past to write stories that take place in the Victorian era with age-play as
a theme.
I
live in the great Lone Star state with my wonderful husband. I have
always loved reading. Growing up in a family with four children, it was
difficult finding a place to be alone. I was probably one of the
squeakiest clean girls on the planet as I would spend hours in the tub so I
could read without being bothered. It wasn’t long before I began to make
up my own endings to the books I was reading. From there, it just seemed
natural to begin writing my own stories.
I never try to restrict myself to any one genre
because there are just too many delicious possibilities out there and inside my
head. I admit to being somewhat of a romantic though as my stories always
must have a great deal of love, passion, corporal discipline and, of course,
great, mind-blowing sex. I want my readers to be able to see, hear, feel
and know the characters that I’m creating as well as I do when I bring them to
life and transfer their stories to paper. I want my women to be strong of
character but also strong enough to know that submission given in love and
trust to your partner does not make you weaker, it makes you far stronger.
I want my men to be sexy, strong, demanding alpha males who
know how to take what they want while acknowledging it is a gift they have been
blessed with by the women that have chosen to submit to them. I want
there to be no doubt that they truly would die for the other no matter how
others might view their relationship.
