Hot to Trot

Pony Tales #3

by C.P. Mandara

This is an alternate cover for ASIN: B00GK4V2O8

The viciously attractive Mark, with the unfaltering smile, has a day of endurance planned for Jenny that the devil himself would find challenging. His artful temperature play has her screaming, his anal dilators have her howling and a ride in the sybian’s saddle leaves her virtually unconscious, but the day is far from over. A group of ladies, with wandering fingers, are given the task of transforming Jenny into a sweet, submissive little pony who will be left looking ‘hot to trot’ in no time at all.

After an exhausting day of training, Jenny has only escape or rescue on her mind. Alas, escape is rather difficult when you’re naked, dressed in thigh high pony boots and have your hands immobilised in leather mittens which are clipped behind your back. Besides, escape isn’t all that important – not when you’re desperate for your next orgasm, it isn’t.

Jenny Redcliff’s first day of hell at Albrecht Stables was only halfway through. She still harbored hope of being rescued until Master Mark Matthews foiled her plan and showed her what happened to disobedient ponies.



I have to say, I’m beginning to feel that I wouldn’t mind being in Jenny’s place haha!

‘Now it seems that my Mr Adorable persona isn't working for you. Let's take it a step further then, shall we? It's time to meet Mr Damn-Fucking-Awful. Buckle your seatbelt, filly, because you're in for quite a ride.'

Mark is one of the reasons why. He just oozed sex appeal and I love it even when he’s being awful. Like Jenny, he was also battling his own inner struggle regarding their situation.

He enjoyed the admiration of women and the instant lust in their eyes when they saw what lady luck had delivered on their doorstep.

A slew of new characters were introduced in this book from the Stables staff, other ponies and a new Mistress and Master. From the look of it, the new trainers would have a bigger role in the next book. Also, some secret behind Jenny’s stay at the Stables was revealed.



Hot To Trot mainly focused on Jenny’s first round of training where pain and pleasure started to meld together, making her confused yet highly aroused. The ending promised some kind of showdown for the next book. I can’t wait to see what’s going to happen to Jenny next.

Note:
There was a hands on grooming scene by other ponies – somewhat of a very mild f/f orgy. That was hot haha!

Saddle up for more smokin' hot Pony Play!

"...If you play nicely around here you are rewarded with pleasure. If you play nasty, you are rewarded with pain. The way you're going, my dear little Miss, you're in for plenty of the latter and not a great deal of the former. Now it seems that my Mr Adorable persona isn't working for you. Let's take it a step further then, shall we? It's time to meet Mr Damn-Fucking-Awful. Buckle your seatbelt, filly, because you're in for quite a ride!"

And what a ride it was!

I officially have a crush on Master Mark - his single-minded focus while training Jenny was a total turn-on, in spite of (or perhaps because of?) all the delicious torture inflicted on little Jenny in this episode of the Pony Tales series.

Master Mark had one impressive bag of tricks to draw from. So many toys and implements for breaking his new pony.

And poor Jenny - she's finally starting grasp the fact that escape from Albrecht Stables will be nearly impossible. Nobody is coming to rescue her... In fact, she learns that her own father arranged for her stay at this twisted little prison...

We met several new characters in this book, and while their parts were rather brief, I look forward to seeing more of each of them in the future. C.P. Mandara has an impressive ability to write out secondary and tertiary characters with enough detail to intrigue, but not so much as to seem overdone.

But enough about that! Let's get back to the stars of the show:

Jenny Redcliff

Her body was beginning to enjoy the intense brand of stimulation and it hungered for more of the same. She was beginning to understand that the pain, torment, and humiliation simply added spice to the final result.

Jenny was brought to Albrecht Stables against her will - a spoiled heiress sent to pony girl training by her father. We begin to see glimpses of the 'how' and 'why' of her father's decision in this book, and I can't wait to read on and discover the whole story.

In this episode Jenny goes head-first into intense pony training - muscle control, anal training, sensory play, and all sorts of lovely torture at the hands of the beautiful Master Mark - a man she either wants to murder or fuck silly depending on the moment.

The really scary thing for our reluctant pony is that she's beginning to enjoy a great deal of what's being inflicted upon her... Though she isn't really being given any time to reflect on it...

Master Mark

Watching his filly suffer under his capable hands, Mark fought to control his arousal. This one was going to test his honed willpower to the max. Fortunately, the end result would be all the more pleasurable because of it. Rarely did a pony arouse him quite this badly, but he had to admit that he wanted her.

What a Dom! Master Mark sets about training his new filly with an enthusiasm that will leave you panting.

Mark knows he has is work cut out for him with Jenny, but he doesn't cut her an inch of slack. If he can bring this spoiled girl to heel, she will be magnificent... But it's a tough road ahead...

Inventory of Kink:
- Humiliation
- Intimidation
- Non-Con
- Dub-Con
- Bondage
- Discipline
- Lots of Anal Play
- Sensory Play
- Edging
- Forced Orgasms
- Exhibitionism...

There's something captivating about this series - Yes, the delicious kinkiness in there in spades, but there's something beneath the surface which gets a little clearer with each book... There's some behind the scenes maneuvering which pushed the MCs together...

I guess we'll just have to keep reading to find out the whole story...

4 'Things are getting hotter' stars

Things are indeed getting hotter between Jenny and Mark. These two are going to set The Albrecht Stables on fire just by being in each other presence. If the circumstances were different, they would probably already be on hate fuck round number 15.

She needed an orgasm. No, that wasn't quite right. She desperately needed an orgasm. Spartacus was well aware of the fact, and he just added to her level of arousal with each stride forward of his glossy black riding boots. She was not going to watch his delectable backside bounce up and down. Much. Even if it was pert, firm and curved in all the right places.

But circumstances are quite unusual. They are a trainer and a pony girl. And while she is literally gaged and bound, his hands are tied figuratively. I'm wondering what kind of bad blood is between Mark and Mr. Radcliffe. And if Mark is even aware of it. I, personally, wouldn't mind seeing him getting kicked in his balls. As much as I love this man, his ego is insufferable.

We also met some more interesting characters. What's going on between Kyle and Isobel? And what kind of grudge Mistress Katrina has against Mark? I'm so excited to find out. And also, I'm delightfully looking forward to more sessions with Jenny and Mark. Yeah, I know, I'm enjoying them way too much 🤭🤭🤭

I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review.

In Hot to Trot, Jenny Redcliffe continues on course with her pony training under Master Mark Matthews’ strict tutelage. There’s a reason Mark’s initials are MMM because he is finer than hell with his strong legs in those riding boots! Mmmmmm…. The next phase of Jenny’s training includes general acclimation to her new lifestyle such as eating, sleeping, grooming and general pony etiquette, but the most important is Anal Training.

“Mark had to apply quite a bit of pressure, but the last two beads, with the help of some vigorous pumping, finally slotted into place, leaving just the small tail end of them on show. He pinged it with her finger and heard her gasp. His filly was filled to the brim and what was more, she loved it.”

Master Mark is prepared to take Jenny’s body to new heights of pain and pleasure, but she must be an obedient filly for the pleasure to outweigh the pain. By outfitting Jenny with an assortment of marvelous plugs, dildos, vibrators, her body is a taut and tightly wound instrument ready to explode from all the deep sensations.

“He’d make her beg to suck his cock, and why stop there? She would beg to have all of her lovely holes, filled, fucked and thrust into…”

Knowing she has absolutely no control at this point Jenny is forced to become a pony girl and stripped of her old life. While Jenny agrees to acquiesce to Master Mark as a means to an end, the reason for her enrollment and training at Albrecht Stables remains to be a mystery.

“This isn’t somewhere you end up by chance.”

In volume 3, a midpoint in the series, more details are unveiled about who is controlling Jenny’s welfare at the stables. Plus, some internal tension arises among the Masters that promises to escalate the competitive spirit for the upcoming pony auction. Therefore, we are left with some theories to ponder and wonder what exactly is in store for Jenny!

If you are looking for some kink with a super-sized side of kink, I highly recommend this series!


Pony Tales series:

[Louise H's Book Thoughts · Rating 4 out of 5]

Would it be in bad taste to say things are steaming up?


Humiliation upon humiliation is heaped upon our poor heroine. Despite her being a rather petulant, spoilt and selfish individual, I do feel some sympathy for her. This is something the author does quite well. She makes her characters just imperfect enough, just the wrong side of right, so that whilst you like them, you don't feel too much empathy or sorrow for their terrible plight! She enjoys a lot of that plight and a multitude of orgasms does sound enjoyable. However forced orgasm torture probably isn't called torture because it's so much fun.


We get more and more intrigue thrown in, and if I ever met Jenny's dad I think I would castrate him with a blunt table knife before stabbing him in the eye with a rusty spoon. There are other players afoot in this game, and lots of backstabbing, not to mention tongue-stabbing. Though that's a very different activity all together.


I'm impressed with how well Jenny's holding everything together. I'm sure I would have descended into a quivering mess of forlorn sobs or become a raving lunatic after being subjected to the same treatment. After all this is very much non-con, though very gentle non-con as there is no rape, violence or physical abuse. Being forced to train as a pony-girl does probably count as mental and emotional abuse though - even if she does enjoy some of it. Or maybe she's just so incredibly used to getting her own way that poor Jenny's brain can't comprehend fully the truth of her situation. Either way it makes for a darn good, kinkily depraved, read.


I now own all 9 the books in this series, but overloading on arc commitments for the past two years means I'm very behind on finishing them. So the re-read is two-fold, firstly to remind myself of events so I can understand the books I haven't read, second is that I read them in my pre-review on goodreads days, and not having a review on here bugs the heck out of me. This is the last and longest of the 'short' parts of the story, there are 3 additional full length books in Pony Tales plus the three Velvet Collar books (which in many ways can be read as a stand alone trilogy).

[lynn❤️lynn · Rating 5 out of 5]

This is a continuation in Jennies training into becoming a complete pony. This book expands on the anal area and the looks of the pony. I've found myself warming and feeling so sorry for Jenny, and dearly hoping that Mark gets to help her. Each book leaves me with yet more questions. What the hell did she do to her father?, and he obviously has a thing against Mark now as well!!... I just hope Jenny and Mark get the opportunity of sorting her wicked father out. I love Agnes, I think she's a character I'm going to fall in love with, she's clearly a mummy type.
My only critique would be, that a lot of the play is very well described, but I'm a visual girl...I need pictures to visualise what is being described, so at times I find it difficult to visualise what is happening, but then the sex and torture is very clear, so who really cares, I just love it. I get the gist of what is occurring, and sometimes it's oh hell no, and other times it's oh hell yes!!!!

Still can't wait to read the rest!!!

[Stefania Mattana · Rating 5 out of 5]

Jenny's riding school continues and is getting even naughtier.
Author Mandara manages to picture a very vivid story which guides the reader through a demanding hot pony training.
Very enjoyable and well written as always, now I look forward to next book.

[SassySami · Rating 4 out of 5]

This story had me walking a fine line between arousal and terror. Ms. Mandara has a delightfully sadistic imagination. Though the scenes between Mark and Jenny often made me uncomfortable, they were well-written. Dayum, but Mark is delightful in his creative torture. I hated Kyle, who seemed willing to severely injure Jenny (shoving her onto the pyramid plug) just to get one over on Mark.

I still have trouble with the fact that Jenny's father sent her to this place, and now it seems that he's sold her into what is essentially sexual slavery so that he can screw over a competitor, which makes it even worse.

I highly recommend this book for people who like an intense mix of sexual teasing, non-con, pony play, and humiliation. I thoroughly enjoyed it. ;)

[F. · Rating 5 out of 5]

Another great episode in Jenny's transformation to pony-girl. Once again the writing and editing is first-class, one of the best pony/petplay books/serials I have read. In this episode Jenny is put through the wringer by Mark and a sadistic trainer, Kyle. She finishes the day being primped, bathed and trimmed and is finally dressed in her pony gear and meets her stable mates. Of course there is heaps more to it but that would give the game away - wouldn't it now.

Future intrigue as to her father's motives for sending Jenny to become a pony-girl are hinted at, no doubt we will learn more in the next episode - Tally Ho and onward.

[Rachael · Rating 4 out of 5]

Will Jenny ever learn that there is no escape for her?
She is forced to crawl in the mud and eat from a trough. She is subjected to hot and cold play. Then there is the oral and anal training. Her beautiful hair and nails are cut off and her body is shaved. She is forever on display.
My heart broke a little when Kyle pulled his stunt. I want both Mark and Jenny to know what he did.
I can't wait to read about the results from Kyle's behavior and about the auction that Mark keeps talking about.
I can't wait for Pony Tales #4!

[Christoph Fischer · Rating 5 out of 5]

C.P. Mandara has created a 'very naughty' series of sexy BDSM with her Pony Tales. "Hot To Trot" has the same winning formula of compelling writing and fascinating characters as had its predecessors.
The series is one of my guilty pleasures that make for a great distraction from more high-brow reads ad the main character Mark is one sexy man. Enjoy.

[Erica · Rating 4 out of 5]

This series is so sadistic and bizarre. The concept intrigues me in a way that seems to be only fired up with each new installment to the story.

The storyline is interesting . . . I am curious to see where it goes next. A new character was introduced and some facts about Jenny's situation are revealed. I love the budding almost relationship in a way between Jenny and Mark.

[☆ Eyes On The Stars ☆ · Rating 5 out of 5]

Nothing to do with the book review itself, but I LOVE the title of this book. ^_^

My goodness, the humiliation that Jenny is suffering thru these books is insane. Ms. Mandara keeps heaping on the load of trouble with a side dish of "Can you believe we are totally about to do this to you?" and serves a spanktastic dessert. Geeeeeeez. (I love it!)


Mark's sadistic flag flies high in this installment (And Kyle too for that matter, but we will get to him in a bit). I mean, give the man some props for some serious torture routines. (I may or may not be slightly jealous in that aspect...) He knows what he wants from his pony which is satisfying and terrifying all at once, meaning he has been around the block before to know what does and doesn't work ... so much more efficient that way.

The end of the story finishes with Jenny having all her hair shorn off, which I would have to say is probably one of the worst mindfucks to happen to her in this series yet. Getting fitted for her pony girl outfit comes in a close second, no worries. But to finally be treated like the animal they believe she is ... how humiliating. I just want to give the girl a hug. And not one of those bizarre hugs that includes a thousand fingers from the previous pony girls, because again ... hello, non-con!!!

Meeting a few of the other trainers:
-- Mistress Katrina: Wouldn't want to meet her evil side in a dark alley, but damn is she funny to a fault.
-- Kyle: Hate. Hate hate hate. Obviously there is a jealously thing going on here that I don't fully understand just yet, but WTF. His attempts to mislead Jenny are already working, sadly. I can just see crazy written all over him, and not the good kind either. He seems really full of himself and missing that little switch to know how much is too much for someone to reasonably survive. Sigh.

----

My big question by the end of the book (it's touched briefly on in Book 4, but not fully discussed) is why Jenny's dad is so insistent that Mark doesn't fuck her? I mean, he has essentially paid people to torture and fuck her at random, so 1) why does he care about this one person's dick and 2) is her really following her progress that closely? Creepy.

Following that, I'm curious to know when Jenny finds out it was her dad that sent her to the pony girl farm, what she is going to do. She is still in serious denial about being rescued, which is so sad.

[BookAddict ✒ La Crimson Femme · Rating 3 out of 5]

Is this the conclusion of Jenny? Does she get rescued? No, Ms. Mandara continues with a cliffhanger at the end. Jenny is still stubborn and resisting. I enjoy non-con stories where the female keeps fighting. Mark seems to love it too. He tries to break her with some anal action.

A fan of anal busting, this scene really works for me. Ms. Mandara cranks up the heat with sexy sadistic sessions forcing Jenny to submit. This book is a teasing morsel. There is even a bit of f/f - just a hint of f/f. One can only hope the next book in the series will have more detailed and graphic female on female shenanigans.

The pony play training is also increasing which is good and depraved. The dehumanizing of Jenny is getting good. Between the mud, slop and bridle, will Jenny become a good little pony? Let's hope not. Because it is much more fun to watch her be disciplined and fucked hard. The spanking she receives in this story is deserved and she enjoys it. Jenny's guilty enjoyment of her cruel treatment is a nice touch. A little new added twist with a couple of new characters and Jenny's father's involvement keeps me hooked. Recommended for anal lovers who like their victims forced wide open when a nice reddened ass.

The author has created a very hot and sizzling book with this “HOT TO TROT”. The characters are fascinating and the plot gets quite intense and unpredictable to someone like me that is not familiar with BDSM. I must admit that it was surprisingly wonderful and Mark is hot and very intriguing.
Christina Mandara does an amazing job with this book.
I am now interested in finding out if Jenny was going to become exactly what Mark wanted her to be. Will she submit fully to him? I am wondering if there is going to be anything more between Mark and Jenny but for Dom and submissive pony girl. But unfortunately that does not come until the next book. So I now have to wait for its release.

[Robin · Rating 3 out of 5]

I challenged my self to read these books and I it was interesting but I feel like I ate a snickers bar for dinner. There was a lot of lust filled scenes but my issue was there was no emotional connection.
I couldn't get into the Pony play thing since this was an abduction really. I get that people like to pretend all these fantasies but I think it should be a choice.
I think choice and submission I can tolerate.
If iT is a captive type of book it is different for me.
I guess if you can compartmentalize all of that than you may like this.

[Franco Bolli · Rating 4 out of 5]

Jenny's first day at the Albrecht Stables continues being both sexually demanding and degrading for her. Yet some sparks start to jump back and forward between her and Mark.
Jenny is used but not by whom she hoped. This adds a whole new and interesting layer to the suspense already created.
This well written story is fascinating and aroussing and so well described the reader can sit back and close the eyes and be there. I'm looking forward to part four.

Hot To Trot (Pony Tales, #3) by C.P. Mandara gets even hotter and this reader needs a cold shower or burst. The author excels at keeping a tight story line full of sexual dominance without losing the plot. Kudos to her brilliance.
Jenny's BDSM training rises to new heights of pain and joy when the gorgeous but tough hunk, Mark puts her through her paces with extreme pleasure. Until now I did not know what an anal dilator was needed for, ouch. And the saddle riding scene is priceless and so well written. The she experiences a sultry group of ladies, with eager fingers who manipulate Jenny into a sweet, submissive little pony and ‘hot to trot’.
These books are sexually addictive so be warned all you budding sex kittens out there, for you might not get enough until the entire series is finished. Very highly recommended for all Valentines out there.

[Louise White · Rating 5 out of 5]

In this continuation to the story Jenny's day is turned once again by the arrival of "the cowboy" unbeknownst to her he switches with her trainer Mark and pushes her boundaries even further. This story concludes Jenny's first day of training, it's been intense and I can't wait to see what day two for this new pony girl will entail.
Very strong story involving BDSM that builds up with each book. The author has created a series that leaves you begging for more as you reach the last few pages. I've been well and truly sucked in by this series and can't wait to read more.

[Holly Gill · Rating 5 out of 5]

"...If you play nicely around here you are rewarded with pleasure. If you play nasty, you are rewarded with pain."

This is the 3rd book in the pony girl series, very powerful. This book they expand of her training taking her to the next stage where I find myself liking Jenny, longing for her to escape with Mark's help. Behind the scenes you wonder what on earth is her fathers problem, and not only Jenny but with Mark.

Still intrigued, hooked and eager for the next book, these books are torture in themselves and C.P. Mandara has one heck of an imagination.

[Deborah McClatchey · Rating 5 out of 5]

I loved this story. C.P. Mandara is one of my favorite erotic authors. I knew Hot To Trot book three in this fabulous Pony Tales series would be filled to the brim with naughty intense BDSM scenes. It didn't disappoint! Jenny's submissive sexual experiences at the Albrecht Stables with her Dom had me turning those pages. Looking forward to the next book!

In this third book of Pony Girls the sparks start flying more seriously between Jenny and Mark. To my high expectation, I must to admit. But will Mark allow anything to happen between them, while Jenny still needs to be transformed into a full-pledge pony girl? Can't wait for the book 4 to find that out.

Jenny's day 1, mostly administered by Mark. Mark had to go to the headquarters at some point during the training, and the American guy subbed. He was mean to Jenny. Jenny didn't realize the switch of a trainer and hates Mark, but also misses him later. She was cleaned in a bath and sent to the stable.

[Saskia · Rating 4 out of 5]

My favorite of the series so far. We get a bit more information about how Jenny ends up at the stables and things are heating up between her and Mark. He goes from nice to mean in a heartbeat. Jenny finds out things about herself She didn't know before. And the haircutting scene made me hug my own long hair.
