Forbidden Treasures—Excerpt
    When Alice Porter finds a chest full of vintage curiosa at an antique market, she little realizes how her discovery of the forgotten treasures of an Edwardian disciplinarian will change her life. The sexy hoard includes a punishment ledger and a well-used rattan cane, and the bygone items intrigue her husband Julian too. Sharing and experimenting with the writings and the wicked implement, the lovers begin a voyage of forbidden sensuality that shocks and thrills them both, revealing dark secrets from Julian’s past and bringing the two of them closer together than they’ve ever been before.
     
    Excerpt:
     
    “Old-fashioned methods have a lot to recommend them,” her husband went on, still fondling the menacing length of rattan. “What do you think, sweetheart?” He twirled it now, deftly and cleverly, as if the damned thing had been designed specifically for his fingertips.
    “I think they probably worked… would work very well.” Alice could hardly believe she was speaking the words. She was effectively sealing her own fate at the hands of this exotic stranger who’d taken the place of her familiar, beloved husband. This stern, breathtaking man, both forbidding and temporarily forbidden to her.
    “In that case…” Julian nodded significantly, still twirling the cane.
    Oh God, it’s so hard! So thin! It’ll really hurt!
    Her eyes locked with Julian’s, and they both looked down at the awesome object he was holding. It was such a plain thing yet latent with power.
    “Oh no,” he said, surprising her by setting the cane to one side, “I think we’ll leave this little beauty for another time.”
    Julian shrugged, and Alice thought she saw a trace of trepidation. Was he unsure? Did he have just the same uncertainty and lack of experience that she did? For a moment, she wondered about her husband’s past and his secret urges that he’d not shared with her thus far. Had he done this before, played these games with a former lover? Or was it his first time too? If it was, he was clearly a natural, and she trusted him despite her fluttering fear.
    “I think we’ll start off with something a little simpler, eh? Come over here,” he said, patting his denim-clad knee.
    Alice crept across to him and then paused a foot away, unable to look him in the eye anymore. He dazzled her, and at the same time, she felt a whole new persona settling over her too. She hung her head and studied her toes, feeling more penitent than she ever had in her life, a miscreant facing retribution in the full knowledge that she had been sinful enough to deserve it. She shook and bit back a moan when she felt her husband’s hands on the waistband of her jeans, unfastening the button, then whizzing down the zipper.
    “And I think we’ll have a bit less of this sort of thing from now on.” With a little shrug of disapproval, he tugged at her jeans, then peeled them down her thighs. They were a snug fit, and they brought her skimpy knickers down with them, making her blush like fire. “I want to see you in pretty, feminine things a bit more often from now on. Skirts, slips, suspenders, nice, soft, womanly knickers, lacy
