Unexpected Consequences nominated for best erotic bdsm book of 2011
The Romance Reviews has nominated Unexpected Consequences in the “erotic bdsm romance” category for best book of 2011. Squee!!! It’s up to readers now to vote for their favorites. I’m thrilled with the recognition.
Released by Loose Id, Unexpected Consequences is about a naïve bride struggling to accept a domestic discipline marriage.
Here’s a blurb:
Having been reared in a traditional family in which her father was the undisputed head of household, Melania Traynor eagerly vows to follow and obey her new husband. She’s thrilled to marry Jared Traynor, man who will love, protect and guide her with a firm hand.
She has no idea how firm.
Jared belongs to the Rod and Cane Society, an organization of men and their wives who are devoted practitioners of domestic discipline.
When Melania disobeys a “request” from her husband and attempts to hide her disobedience, Jared delivers the spanking he feels is warranted.
Although Melania consents, she fears that she got more than she bargained for and doubts she can submit to a lifetime of domestic discipline.
Jared doubts he can accept anything less.
The nomination for best book comes at a great time because False Pretenses, the SEQUEL to Unexpected Consequences is tentatively scheduled for a June 2012 release by Loose Id. One of the minor characters in Unexpected Consequences is not who he or she claims to be, but is an infiltrator who seeks to expose the Rod and Cane Society. That person becomes the main character of False Pretenses.

Disciplinary Measures blurb
Married for just three years, Linc Ellison has reached his wit’s end. His wife’s overspending threatens to drive them into the poorhouse. But more than that, he doesn’t feel he can trust Regina because of her string of broken promises. When he learns about the Rod and Cane Society, a secret organization of men who spank their wives, he decides to implement some disciplinary measures to save his marriage.
Sure Regina shops a lot. And she’s broken some promises. But she’s trying to do better. What hurts most is that Linc no longer trusts her. So she consents to try domestic discipline.
Neither is prepared for the ripple effect the disciplinary measures will have on their love life.
Unexpected Consequences Blurb
Jared belongs to the Rod and Cane Society, a secret organization of men who spank their wives to maintain domestic discipline. When Melania ignores a “request” from her husband and attempts to hide her disobedience, Jared spanks her.
While Jared believes the unpleasantness has been settled, for Melania it only has begun. Although she consented to the spanking, her fairytale notion of marriage has been shattered and she makes plans to leave Jared as soon as her parents return from vacation.
While she waits, Melania begins to see more positive aspects of domestic discipline. But just as she decides her love for Jared is paramount and she might be able to accept a domestic discipline marriage, Jared discovers she’d planned to leave him and once again her marriage is in jeopardy.
