Reluctant Bride

Kane is good at keeping life tidy, running the family ranch, and taking care of business in general. The only awkward spot is his mother's futile attempts to make him settle down.'Rissa grew up around Kane's family, and suffered from infatuation when she was a girl. He'd been big-brotherly to her, which forged an adolescent hero-worship, but she couldn't have guessed at the qualities just under the surface of this young man, back then.Returning to the small town after a painful divorce draws her back into his life unexpectedly, where she encounters the calm confidence he's evolved, and soon discovers that he's not above taking her firmly in hand when he thinks she needs it, whether to keep her physically, or emotionally, safe.The electricity of the man, and his discipline, work at her defenses, and try as she might to resist, the spankings at the hand of the man he's become make it harder and harder to remain "reluctant".
