Spanking Storybook

One kind of “purple sage”, Salvia dorrii (Photo credit: Wikipedia)

Normally I don’t review a spanking story until I’ve finished it, but I’m making an exception with Purple Sage by Chula Stone.  The reason I haven’t finished this story is because it’s an ongoing story at Discipline and Desire with one more chapter to post next week to complete it.  I’m anxiously awaiting the final chapter, and this story has been on my mind for days!

I’ve previously reviewed Chula Stone’s Your Smile Come Morning.   She’s a fabulous writer and does an awesome job of weaving spanking scenes into a intriguing romance plot.  When  I first saw Purple Sage on Discipline and Desire I wasn’t sure it was something I wanted to read right away because it seemed to be set in a historical time, and I tend to prefer contemporary stories.

I was wrong.  This story is an interesting take on a time travel romance. It’s actually not a time travel story at all.  Purple Sage is about a dude ranch that offers its visitors a chance to live ranch life like it would have been in the late 1800s.  But it’s so much more!  Just when you think you have this story figured out, you will be wrong!  These are not your ordinary cowboys creating an experience for its visitors.  No, these men are … well, I’m not going to tell you because that would ruin the story.

The story begins with Sasha arriving at the Purple Sage to spend her first weekend as a guest.  First, she has to agree to the terms and rules on the ranch.  Not only does the ranch run like one would in the 1800s, but the women are expected to behave like women in that time period too.  That includes submitting to the discipline of that time if they misbehave  - yep, that’s how the spankings happen.  Though it isn’t just Sasha that is spanked, you get to know some of the other couples on the ranch as well.

You would think that was enough plot, right?  Not so.  Suddenly, an old man starts mumbling what appears to be nonsense, and everything changes at the ranch.  Well, they are still living in the 1800s style, but ranch life becomes a lot more exciting!

Just a few more days until the final chapter posts!

I haven’t written a spanking story review in a while. I just finished The Locket by Maren Smith, and I loved this story so much I couldn’t wait to tell you about it.  This is a story that begs to be shared with other spanking story fans. The Locket is going on my favorite spanking stories list! It’s that good!

The Locket is a time travel book, but instead of the typical historical periods used in these type of books, like Regency England or Medieval Scotland, it’s set in the US during World War II.  This is one of the most unique spanking stories I’ve read.  I loved the setting and the how the author described the struggles during that time in American history.

Kylie is sitting on a park bench when a conversation with an old man changes her life.  Suddenly she’s in the middle of an apple orchard getting her first ever spanking.  She finds herself living with the same man from the park when he was a young man just returned from the war.  He’s dealing with the loss of his family and struggling to make ends meet on his neglected farm.

Robert has definite ideas on how a woman should behave, and he holds Kylie to his rules and his forms of discipline.  Even though Kylie has always fantasized about being spanked over a man’s knee, she has a hard time with the reality of discipline spankings.  Not only is Kylie a modern, smart, capable woman, she’s also very independent.  She even manages to find creative ways to help with the farm, as well as helping the townspeople.  Usually the spanking relationship is what keeps me in a spanking romance story, but this time it’s just as much the plot surrounding Kylie’s ability to thrive and overcome obstacles to become an asset to Robert and his farm.

The Locket is not a short story.  It’s 168 pages.  You really get to know both Robert and Kylie.  You’ll love the ending as the story comes full circle back to the present time.  I was still sad to see it end.

Maren Smith always writes an engaging spanking story.  I’ve been reading her stories at Discipline and Desire for many years.  The Locket, however, is an ebook available at Amazon.  You don’t need a Kindle to read the story.  You can read it on your PC or other devices compatible with the Kindle app.
