A spin off from the Domestic Discipline quartet, this has a feel all of it's own

Whilst there is still domestic discipline within the pages of this book, this had a much more erotically kinky feel to it. Cordelia, as a widow, might not have been a virgin, but Philip took great delight in corrupting her innocence anywhere and everywhere he could!

Having read the very entertaining Domestic Discipline series, it was really good to catch some glimpses of Eleanor, Edwin, Irene, Hugh, Cynthia, Wesley, Grace and Alex again. However you don't need to have read any of those books to understand and enjoy this one.

I loved both main characters, they were so very likeable and made a really adorable couple. The author really convinced me of the connection they shared and of how much personal growth Cordelia underwent. The entire story is an absolute delight to read, it's a fairly long book but at no point did it drag or get boring. The author just had one heck of a good story to convey and it simply wouldn't have been done justice in any fewer words.

I feel the need to warn you that this story contains punishment spankings, carried out by the hero on both Cordelia and her step-daughter Gabrielle. If that is liable to offend you then this may not be the book for you, I hate seeing reviews on this type of book referring to 'beatings' and 'violence' against the women when (a) that isn't the case and (b) the book warns you about the content. Whilst Cordelia didn't enjoy the actual spanking, she did accept and give consent to the discipline, so if you're new to the genre I feel this is an ideal book to 'experiment' with (and boy there's some smokin' hot experimenting within these pages!)
