I’m happy to be back at Saturday Spankings
after missing last week. I did come reading and I found books for my vacation.
I hope to find more today. There should be a brand new Cassie book out in about
a month – more on that soon.
Today’s snippet comes from Cassie Corralled.
Cassie did have a life before Tom, and it was as wild one. Allie often pesters
Cassie for stories from the ‘old days’ and in this snippet Cassie shares about
a time a former boyfriend broke into her apartment with rape on his mind.
Cassie manages to bite him and he had fallen from the bed jerking away.
That was the chance I needed. I leaped from the bed and toward
my purse lying in the chair. I’m been carrying a gun since I’d become a widow.
I had learned quickly that shooting was one thing that came natural to me in
the few lessons I’d taken.
My assailant had staggered to his feet and as he looked my way I
assume it was his turn to be frightened. The sight of a nude woman that you
have just beaten and tried to rape holding a gun on you must, at least, be a
sobering sight. I had underestimated his stupidity.
“You little bitch, you don’t have
the guts to shoot anybody.”
I decided to prove him wrong – I shot him.
It was a good shot too, upper arm, I was aiming for a flesh wound and that’s
what I got. If I had wanted to kill him I could have, and felt justified, but I
clearly remember thinking that I didn’t want to have to deal with the hassle of
a dead body in my home.

LOL. Love her reasoning. Dead bodies can be so messy to clean up.
ReplyDeleteCassie is nothing if not practical.
DeleteLoL PK, love her reasoning too. I just love Cassie's pluck :)

She has that. See why Tom worries about her so much?
DeleteLove this. A very powerful woman.
ReplyDeleteThanks, she is indeed.
DeleteWow! That's the kind of excerpt you don't see every day on Sat Spanks. Really enjoyed it, thanks!
ReplyDeleteThanks Amelia - Cassie was a wild one before Tom tries to do a little taming.
DeleteGood for her! He deserved it.
ReplyDeleteYou don't know the half of it! He really did.
DeleteJust love a Cassie excerpt, PK. Someday I will teach you to shoot.
ReplyDeleteCounting the days 'til the new publication.

That might be fun, but I'll never be as good as Cassie.
