When Jessi Crenshaw’s husband Graham dies unexpectedly, she’s devastated. He’s the only man she’s ever loved. Just eighteen when she met him, she’s been married to him for twenty-five years. Now she’s lost her friend, her lover…and her Dominant.
When Jessi Crenshaw’s husband Graham dies unexpectedly, she’s devastated. He’s the only man she’s ever loved. Just eighteen when she met him, she’s been married to him for twenty-five years. Now she’s lost her friend, her lover…and her Dominant.
But
as it turns out, Graham had an inkling that his health was in decline, and he
tapped his friend and protégé in the Lifestyle, firefighter and paramedic Judd
Farris, to be Jessi’s Dominant until she gets back on her feet.
Judd
is determined to fulfill his promise to his friend. But it’s a damn odd arrangement—a platonic
Dom/sub relationship. With her fiery
auburn hair, sparkling green eyes, and audacious spirit, Jessi captured his
attention the first time he ever saw her.
At her husband’s funeral.
A man
could go to hell for the things he’s been thinking. But they’ve drawn a line, and he’s going to
stick to it.
Judd’s
sexy good looks and his gentle confidence aren’t lost on Jessi. She’s torn between loyalty to the man she
loved, and desire for the man increasingly in her fantasies. In the letter Graham left for her, he
mentioned that she might find Judd attractive.
But that’s simply ridiculous.
He’s five years younger than she is.
He couldn’t possibly be interested in her. Could he?
Judd’s
a Dom without a sub, and Jessi’s a sub without a Dom. It’s perfect for the time being. Could it be that Graham had more in mind than
merely a temporary solution?
And
could it all end at the hands of a madman?

Excerpt
Choice One (explicit)
Flickering
candlelight greeted them as they entered the bedroom, and Jessi saw various
implements lined up on the bed. She
looked to Judd.
“I
wanted to create the right mood, Angel.
Candles seemed the way to go.”
Slowly she approached the bed and
lightly fingered what she saw there--a black leather crop, a rectangular paddle
also of black leather, a black suede flogger, and a wooden spoon. Judd stepped beside her and slid off his
black leather belt, adding it to the assortment.
When
she turned to him, his expression was bemused.
“Told you I went shopping,” he laughed.
“Now, you’ve been such a good girl, I’m going to let you choose what I’m
using to spank you with tonight. So what
will it be?” He stepped back and folded
his arms across his chest, waiting to see her response.
Jessi
blinked and looked back to the items on the bed. Her head spun with possibilities, but
suddenly she knew the answer. Dropping
to her knees, she grasped her wrists behind her back and bowed her head. “Whichever one would please you, Sir.”
“Angel,
you please me more than I can say.” He
stroked her hair lovingly, then removed his shirt, tossing it into the
bathroom.
“I think…” He reached down to help her stand, tugging at
the dress gathered around her waist to pull it the rest of the way down. “I think we’ll get the biggest bang for our
buck…or your butt,” he grinned, “with the paddle. I want you to stand at the end of the bed and
lean over.”
Jessi complied, resting her torso on
the bed, her head turned toward the slider overlooking the beach and the ocean
beyond. In the dim light, she could also
see herself, naked and bent over the end of the bed, reflected in the white
sheer-shrouded glass. Her expression was
wanton, needy. And she felt immensely
happy.
Judd
smoothed his hand over her bare bottom, pausing to tweak the plug. Jessi gasped at the sensation and felt the
need in her core grow. She yelped when
the first smack surprised her, but after that, she gave herself over to the
sensations, the whack on her cheeks, the vibration in her ass, the tingle in
her pussy.
At
some point, Judd put down the paddle and used his hands to smooth away the
sting. “Up on the bed and on your knees,
Angel.”
Jessi
complied, and he turned her to face the bank of glass. “Head up.
I want you to watch as I fuck your cunt.”
She
gasped, her eyes meeting his in the reflection as he impaled her with no further
preamble. He pounded into her, all the
while fidgeting with the red-jeweled flange of the butt plug. Jessi felt a release of fluid she was
powerless to stop.
“Come
when you’re ready, Angel. You’ve earned
it,” Judd coaxed.
Needing
no further encouragement, Jessi cried out as ecstasy overtook her, starting in
her drenched core and radiating throughout her body.
“Good
girl,” Judd murmured as her shuddering subsided. He leaned forward to kiss her shoulder. “But we’re not done quite yet. I’m still taking your ass tonight.”
Gently,
he helped her down to her belly and slid her to the edge of the bed so that her
feet rested on the floor. Using his
foot, he pushed her feet wide, and he carefully removed the butt plug, wrapping
it in a waiting towel. “What’s your
color, Angel?”
She
heard concern in his voice. “Um, green,
Sir. I’m good.”
“Good. Very good.”
Next,
Jessi felt a cool dollop of lube at the top of her crack and Judd massaged it
around the hole the plug had vacated.
That was followed by the pressure of Judd’s cock pushing at her
entrance. “Breathe, Angel. Just relax and breathe.”
Jessi
did just that, closing her eyes and focusing on the renewed sensation in her
pussy as Judd pushed his way into her back hole. When his head pushed past her taut ring, he
stopped, giving her a chance to acclimate before he pushed forward.
Jessi raised her head, seeking out his
eyes in the glass door. She watched as
he slowly pushed himself in to the root, and she saw his chest hitch as he
forced himself to hold still again. At
the question in his eyes, she nodded, and he gave her the full force of him,
withdrawing abruptly, then slamming back into her, pounding her tight passage. He pulled her to her knees to gain better
purchase, his balls slapping against her clit with every charge, and she felt
her moment building again.
“Come with me, Jessi. I want us to come together,” he grunted, as
he released himself for the second time that night.
Jessi saw sparks and screamed out her
pleasure, continuing to shake as he slid from her grasp and collapsed onto the
bed. Judd gathered her to himself,
wrapping her in his arms as they both gasped for air. She snuggled in to his chest and he lightly
kissed her temple. “I’m yours,” she
whispered.
“Yes, you are. You’re mine, Jessi.”

Choice Two (not explicit)
Jessi’s hands
shook. With her index finger, she traced
the writing on the front of the envelope.
She glanced out the back door to see Judd kick off his shoes and sit on
the edge of the pool, sinking his feet in the water. Buddy flopped down beside him and rolled
over, wanting his tummy scratched, and Judd obliged.
She
turned her attention back to the envelope.
Her irrational self told her that if she didn’t open it, somehow
everything could go back to normal. But
curiosity won the moment, and she slid her thumb under the flap and carefully
opened the letter.
My
dearest Sparrow,
I’m so sorry I’m not there with
you. I can feel my heart beginning to
wear out. Please don’t be angry with me
for not telling you, I know how you worry about things. We’ve had a good life together. I’ve told you before and I’m telling you
again, you are the best thing that ever happened to me. The fact that you are the mother of my
children amazes the hell out of me. What
did I ever do to deserve such a terrific family?
Jessi
reached up to wipe a silent tear from her cheek. Self-consciously, she flicked her eyes out to
the pool deck to find that Judd was watching her intently, and he flashed a
sympathetic smile. Sniffing, she read
on.
It would be pointless, I suppose, to
tell you not to mourn. Just don’t do it too
long. And don’t you dare wear
black. God, I hate all that maudlin
bullshit. Now Sparrow, you and I know
that you are a natural submissive. I
don’t want you to feel lost without a Dominant in your life. I want you to find one, a true Gentleman who will
cherish you in the way you deserve. One
who will nurture the sexy, sensual woman you truly are. Don’t you go back to some kind of vanilla
half-existence. That would really piss
me off.
Tears still
streaming, she laughed because she could almost hear Graham’s voice.
If you have this letter, you’ve met
Judd. I’ve known him for several years
now, and he’s a solid Dominant. I’ve
asked him to check in on you and to take care of some things around the
house. I’ve also asked him to help you
out until you find a Dominant of your own.
Judd is willing to give you knee time, Sparrow, to help you settle your
mind and find peace. I don’t mean sex
and kink. He would be a sort of
‘emotional Dominant,’ just until you get back on your feet.
On the other hand, if you found
yourself attracted to Judd, it would make me happy knowing that you’d be in
good hands. He’s a good man, Jessi, a
gentle man and a Gentleman. He would be
a perfect sexual Dominant for you. I
worry thinking about the dangers out there, Sparrow. You and Judd could make your own way.
Mortified, Jessi
glanced out the back door. Thankfully,
Judd was staring out across the pool. “I
can’t believe you’re telling me these things,” she murmured to herself.
Anyway, I trust you, Sparrow. You’re smart and strong, and I’m so proud of
you. Never forget that you are
absolutely the love of my life. I’m
forever grateful to you for taking my hard, stuffy heart and helping me to be a
better man than I ever dreamed about being.
Be sure the kids know how much I love them. I love you, my Sparrow, with all my
heart. Live happy. Find love and cherish it.
Your loving husband and Master, G.
Jessi was
completely undone. Sobbing, she folded
her arms on the counter and rested her head on them. She cried until she felt she had no tears
left. Moments passed and she raised her
head. It hurt and her eyes felt
puffy. With a glance at Judd and Buddy
still sitting by the pool, she went into the powder room and splashed water on
her face.
Taking a deep
breath, she forced her feet out the back door and across the pool deck. Judd smiled up at her kindly. “How are you holding up?”
Jessi shrugged as
she stepped out of her sandals and sat beside him, slipping her feet into the
cool water. They sat without speaking,
each gently sliding feet through the water, watching the ripples cross the pool
and return to them. Judd moved his foot
under her leg and raised her foot to the surface. The fuchsia nail polish was chipped and
peeling.
“How long since
you had a pedicure, Jessi?” he asked gently.
She
moved her foot away and looked at him sharply.
“What exactly did your letter say, Judd?”
He
exhaled forcefully. “Like I said, he was
worried about you. He said that you’re
submissive and that you might need somebody in your life until you find your
way.” He glanced at her knowingly. “When was the last time your mind was quiet,
little one?”
A
tear slid down Jessi’s cheek and she swiped at it roughly. “So, you’re my appointed Dominant, is that
it?” she asked testily.
“It’s
not like that.” Judd looked at her
steadily. “Graham and I were
friends. We talked about Dominance and
submission for hours over the years. He
trusted me. Trusted me with the one thing
that meant the most to him in the world.”
He
paused, gazing at her thoughtfully. “He
didn’t want you to run into the wrong kind of man while you’re looking to ease
your mind, to fill that emptiness that I see in your eyes.” Jessi stubbornly looked away and swiped at
her cheek again.
“You
know, it’s entirely up to you. I’m going
to complete the list of things around your house. I promised him I would. But whether you accept me as a surrogate
Dominant? Only you can decide
that.”
He
ran a frustrated hand through his hair.
“You miss knee time, I know you do,” he said softly. “A chance to just let go of all the concerns
that weigh you down.” Jessi turned back
to look at him, her expression softer.
“I’m not talking about kinky sex, tying you up and all that. I’m offering you a chance to clear your mind
of everything, let me carry your burdens for a while.”
“Why? Why would you do that?” Her voice was strained.
Judd
shrugged. “I’m Dominant. It’s what I crave, to be needed, to take care
of a submissive.” He laughed
lightly. “I’m a Dominant without a
submissive, and you’re a submissive without a Dominant. For the time being, it works out well.”
He
gazed at her steadily, kindness in his brown eyes. “Just say the word. Do you want knee time, little one?”
Another
tear rolled down her cheek. And she
nodded. “Yes,” she whispered. “I want knee time.”
He
smiled patiently. “Yes, what, little
one?”
“Yes,
Master.”
Judd
shook his head. “I’m not your Master,
little one. Yes, Sir will do.”
Unconsciously,
Jessi bowed her head submissively. “Yes,
Sir, may I please have knee time?”
“Yes,
you may,” he responded gently. “There is
a big leather chair in your den. Be
kneeling beside the chair in two minutes.
Your eyes will be closed and you will clear your mind. Do you understand, little one?”
“Yes,
Sir.” Jessi stood and started to walk
away, but then turned and looked at him anxiously. “My clothes, Sir?”
“Your
clothes are fine the way they are,” he answered. “Hurry.
I’ll come to you shortly.”
“Yes,
Sir,” she said, and she hurried into the house.
