Today I am honoured to host the latest release from the inimitable (and delicious!) Elodie Parkes!
Blurb
Cade’s
trying to get over a broken heart when his friend Jack takes him off to a
nightclub, named only, The Club. Although at first Cade is shocked by the place
he meets Marissa. It’s not long before he and Marissa get together, but under
the pressure of expectations from, The Club, and Marissa’s fear of commitment,
they’re both running in opposite directions.
Gorgeous
Cade has touched Marissa’s heart in ways she doesn’t want to admit.
Lovely
Marissa has lifted Cade’s sadness and opened his heart to love again.
The
trouble is — someone has to give a little. Who’s it going to be?
An
erotic romance with a sprinkle of vanilla BDSM.
And here's a scintillating, 18+ excerpt! Enjoy!
The lights were low and Marissa took a seat at an
empty table close to the small group of people. Strategically placed, she took
in the delicious sight that was Cade, only a yard away now.
Blue eyes,
mmm, my favorite. Look at those lips, made for kissing, biting, sucking.
She cast her eyes over his ass and thighs. She soaked up the sight of his
handsome jaw line and her eyes flicked to his groin, where she assessed the
hang of his suit pants and licked her lips at the promise of a big cock. Holy hell, he’s gorgeous. I’d like him on a
collar and leash waiting for me to slap his ass and fuck him senseless. I’d
like to slip a blindfold on him and run a feather over his cock to see it jerk
to life. I’d like to tie him to a chair, suck him almost to orgasm, and then
leave him to beg for release. Wonder if he’s dom or sub?
As Marissa considered Cade’s preference, he turned
and looked straight into her eyes.
A huge stab of sexual excitement throbbed in her
pussy. With her clit buzzing, she leaned a little forward to smile at Cade.
He looked away.
Marissa saw him gaze around the room. She watched
as his shoulders slumped.
The room was large and divided by obvious walkways.
A small dance floor held writhing couples, dangerously close to each other,
some half-naked. Doms occupied the tables with their Subs in various scenes,
all taking their pleasure without concern. Other Doms sat in the low leather
lounges watching. It was all much the same as usual. One Dom fucked his Sub
from behind, one hand fisted in her hair, and the other gripping her jaw
turning her face to kiss and bite her lips. A Sub straddled her Dom, her hands
held high above her head tied with a satin ribbon, as the Dom took his fill of
her breasts.
Marissa heard his growl.
“Don’t you come until I say you may … I want you
across the table. You’ll come on my fingers and then my cock. Do you
understand? I might have to punish you again.”
The Sub’s whispered answer must have been to his
liking. He kissed her tenderly.
Marissa looked away. Her pussy creamed and a sigh
of appreciation escaped her. Marissa loved sex. She liked to be in control,
although she’d scened with a Master, a friend, when she needed release. Her
role in The Club was as a Domme, but she was vanilla, the specialist in helping
newcomers. Everything she did, she designed to bring maximum pleasure to her
Sub whilst simultaneously taking it herself. She enjoyed the control she
wielded. It suited her to be the one with the power, and in her mind, the
choice to walk away.
The Club had been open for more than a decade and
was considered one of the best in the country. Safety was their priority, that
and pleasure. To Marissa’s knowledge, no one left The Club after seeking a
niche there and never came back.
Marissa found her gaze straying back to Cade.
He stood awkwardly by the table where Jack finger-fucked
his current Sub. She laid back with her legs wide apart, her dress up around
her waist, and her wrists tied over her head with a blue satin scarf. If she’d
worn panties to visit The Club, there was no sign of them now.
Marissa watched the Sub squirm, whimpering for
release.
Jack shook his head. “Not yet, sweetheart, I’m
enjoying your lovely pussy. Your cream’s running down my palm. I’m going to
lick it up and then I’ll think about letting you come. Are you enjoying showing
my guest what a good girl you are?”
The Sub murmured, her breath hitching as Jack bent
and thrust his tongue into her pussy.
“Yes, sir, it’s exactly how I hoped it would be.”
Marissa’s pussy drenched her panties. She licked
her lips.
Cade lurched around and took a step toward her
table.
He looked unseeing right into Marissa’s eyes, the
expression on his face a glaze of pure confusion, and then he passed by heading
to the bar in the corner.
Marissa watched him take a sip of the iced water
he’d ordered, then she too got up and walked away from that part of The Club
where sex soaked the air with erotic perfume, and the sounds of orgasm played
havoc with her own desires.
What’s the background to the story, Rescuing
Cade?
I
was asked to write a story for an erotic romance anthology. Almost immediately
I had my character, Cade, form in my head and a love story for him, but then I
was informed the anthology would be BDSM. I thought I’d have trouble with the
genre, but the editor of the proposed anthology said, ‘give it a go’. I began
to adapt the love story in my mind for the character Cade, thinking I’d have to
consider the plot for a short time, but only a few days later the anthology was
cancelled. By then Cade was so real to me and a story with a sprinkle of the
genre, BDSM, was firmly in my mind, so I wrote it.
The
story is much longer than I originally thought it might be, especially when it
was going to be for an anthology, and the romance conflict arc is now about
both Cade and my heroine, Marissa. As usual, I fell in love with my characters
and couldn’t stop writing until they reached their HEA.
I
did a little research for this story because I didn’t know much about the type
of club Jack, Cade’s friend, takes him to. Once I no longer needed to place
emphasis on dominance and submission, the story unfolded easily, interweaving
with the original love story I had for Cade when he first began whispering in
my ear.
With
scorching hot love scenes, tender moments, a dash of angst and a splash of
humor this is Cade’s journey to love again.
I
hope readers enjoy it.
