Welcome back! Saturday Spankings is a good place to find some great summer reads. As I continue working on my latest book, in which you’ll see many old friends, I’m highlighting some of my earlier books. Today’s snippet is from, Cassie on the Move, the third in the Cassie’s Space series.
Cassie and Tom love to travel, but Cassie is annoyed that the dreaded ivory brush accompanies them on every trip. When she notices it in Tom’s bag, she holds it for a moment, wondering if, perhaps, it could be left behind on this time.
“Cassie Jane, I want to know what you were doing. You keep your hands off that brush. Were you taking it out of my bag?”
I began in attack mode, “I wasn’t taking anything out of your old suitcase, but why shouldn’t I take the brush out? After all, it’s my brush. It was your wedding gift to me, wasn’t it? Maybe you should ask me before you take it from the dresser.”
I don’t think he was taking me very seriously, since he pulled me over his lap as I fussed. He gave me two scorching swats with the brush before tossing it back into his bag and warmed me a bit more with his hand.
“I’ll tell you what gives me the right – I’m your husband.” I found that answer extremely unsatisfying, but he was helping me up and I felt it in my best interest to keep my mouth shut for the most part.
I gave him a scowl as I rubbed away the sting. “I didn’t do anything wrong, you know. Are you going to be this picky on our whole vacation?” I asked.
“Probably,” he answered, grinning and giving me a quick kiss. “Now don’t you touch that brush or my suitcase. Understand?”
Of course, I understood. I’m not an idiot. Actually, I consider myself a well-behaved wife. When I carefully reached in and removed all his underwear, I didn’t touch the brush or his suitcase. I felt our trip was about to be off to a wonderful start.

Happy Saturday, PK,
ReplyDeleteMy day is always complete when I read a snippet from Cassie. I have to pack a suitcase today and will be very careful about what goes in.

That's good, some items you pack could definitely hurt you!

Cassie will never truly 'grow up', but don't think Tom really minds.
