Karen Nappa is an Amazon bestselling author of Seasoned BDSM romance with HEA. Her books are available at the popular retailers and include series such as the Club Indigo series and The Quinn Quartet.

Immersed in the D/s lifestyle herself, she writes realistic albeit romantic stories. When not dominated by her cats or her Master (in that order—even if it earns her a spanking!), she loves going places to discover the stories waiting to be written.

She resides in the Netherlands with her dominant husband, two adult-ish sons—and whoever they might drag home with them—and, of course, her two Chausie cats. If she isn’t writing or texting with friends, she’s probably reading, running, or listening to heavy metal.

Thanks for the great question, Cecile. We have at least four more planned, assuming the first one does well, of course.

We usually outline the story at some point. Trapped came more organically. The second and third books are more planned out, but we don't decide who is going to write what until we're in the middle of things. Some scenes just naturally come to one or the other of us and some we have to work harder at and do more together. We have regular chats on Skype twice about the story we're working on where we make decisions and discuss other of the publishing process.(less)

Mother's Day: a brand new Club Indigo story and free books!

Hello everyone! How are you doing with all the lockdown, safer-at-home, and shelter in place orders? Without books, we’d have gone crazy by now!

Quotes by Karen Nappa  (?)

“Nothing says ‘mine’ more than my handprint, Ember.”
Karen Nappa, Claiming Chloe

“I, with a deeper instinct, choose a man who compels my strength, who makes enormous demands on me, who does not doubt my courage or my toughness, who does not believe me naïve or innocent, who has the courage to treat me like a woman.”
Anaïs Nin

“It's hard for an educated woman to turn her head off. That's part of the joy of being a submissive. None of the decisions are yours. When you can't refuse anything and can't even move, those voices in your head go silent. All you can do, and all you are permitted to do, is feel.”
Cherise Sinclair, Dark Citadel

“When a woman submits to a man, it's the most precious gift she can give. Herself. Unreservedly. The man has to respect and honor that gift above all else. Even if he respects nothing else in the world, he must respect the woman in his care. It's his sworn duty to protect, honor and cherish his submissive. To take care of her and provide a safe haven. Someone who would put his own needs above his woman's is no man.”
Maya Banks, Sweet Addiction

“If my Master is lost, I'll find him. I'll lead him back to himself, because to serve doesn't always mean to follow.”
Joey W. Hill, Hostile Takeover

“Right on the edge of fear was where trust could grow.”
Cherise Sinclair, Breaking Free
