From the Back Cover
Slab Hands by Annabel Joseph ~ Christine's always been curious about spanking, and the bouncer at the bottom of the stairs has a magnificent set of hands. Once he learns about her secret disciplinary fantasies, he's more than happy to put those hands to use...

Master Class: Initiation by Sierra Cartwright ~ When wanna-be sub Jennifer Berklee calls him Master and begs him to flog her, PI Logan Powell knows all his military training won't be enough to keep his jaded heart safe. He intends to claim this sexy, innocent woman for his own...no matter the cost.

Theirs to Punish by Renee Rose ~ When a billionaire's daughter-turned-ninja picked Casino Magnifico for a heist, she didn't take into account one thing--actually--two. Twin owners Joe and Alex Jamison won't hesitate to employ a little corporal punishment to bring the virgin socialite in line...

Lust Angel by Cari Silverwood ~ On good days, what falls from the heavens may be a naked woman. As an ex-SAS soldier, now private contractor, Adam is used to the unexpected, but nothing in life has prepared him for a fallen angel with a craving for spanking, bondage, and punishment.

Stepbrother Jerk by Natasha Knight ~ To buy her stepbrother's silence, Lisa agrees to submit to his discipline, even though she has no idea what she's in for. But Jace knows exactly what his stepsister needs and a bare bottom spanking is only the beginning.

His Runaway Valentine by Sue Lyndon ~ When a handsome stranger rides out of nowhere to rescue Nora from slavers, the runaway bride is shocked to learn he's the very man to whom she was betrothed. There's no escaping the arranged marriage now, and Luke is quick to make Nora understand that he expects not only obedience, but her absolute surrender.

Rose's Are Red by Ashe Barker ~ Rose has had a crush on Iain McCain for years and when she spots her sexy ex-teacher with a whip in his hand at her favourite BDSM club her heart stills. Dare she approach him? A Valentine's Day card might earn her the spanking she craves if she delivers it personally...on her knees.

His to Take by Kallista Dane ~ On the now-sexless, sterile Planet Earth, Dr. Selena Reston saves the life of Haldor, a Viking warrior from another world. His savage lovemaking shocks her and awakens her wild side. Though she craves his domination, can she build a life with him halfway across the galaxy?

Stepping It Up by Cara Bristol ~ Ariel had crushed on her stepbrother Hunter for years. But if he expects to win back her heart in one wicked weekend, he'll have to step it up and take her in hand...the Rod and Cane Society way.

Claiming Chloe by Korey Mae Johnson ~ When she is left alone on Valentine's Day, Chloe takes matters into her own hands. But going out exploring on her own on an alien planet turns out not to be the best idea she ever had, and when her three handsome alien mates end up having to rescue her, Chloe's bare bottom will pay the price for her naughtiness.

Maud and the Secret Society of Saint Valentine by Emily Tilton ~ Maud has decided that the new boyfriend she's crazy about can't be serious when he tells her she needs a firm hand in the bedroom and everywhere else. The Secret Society of Saint Valentine begs to differ, and summons her to a tribunal where she'll learn just how serious David is.

Dancing With a Dom by Katherine Deane ~ What do ballroom dancing, hard spankings, and mind-blowing orgasms have in common? I guess it depends who your dance partner is. The man smiling down at me, with his hand on my waist... he's a Dom. And he wants to be mine this Valentine's Day.

Taking the Human by Trent Evans ~ For Lukanos, a muscle bound, seven foot tall alien, abducting the beautiful human female was the easy part. Winning her heart--and not breaking his own--was something else entirely.

Sweet Birdie Blue by Alta Hensley ~ Rem Langston has no choice but to save the feisty Birdie Bluebell, whether she wants saving or not. Their icy beginning soon turns to a passion hot enough to melt the blizzard outside, but will Birdie accept Rem into her heart?

This anthology was hot, filled with stories of spanking and love. Here are a few of my favorite from the anthology.

Cari Silverwood (Lust Angel)
This was a story about a fallen angel who is put on earth because she felt the sin of lust towards a handsome earth man. At first she doesn't know what she is but he figures it out and decides ot keep and corrupt her. Along the way they both fall in love but she can't fight against her angelic nature and is very helpful towards other leading her slowly back towards her angel status. The end was fun, I don't want to spoil the surprise. There is some kinky bondage and the sex is super hot, the characters have a great connection and you can feel they love each other. A fun story.

Korey Mae Johnson (Claiming Chloe)
This book was great! I loved the characters, I loved the sex, I loved the story (aliens!).

Renee Rose (Theirs to Punish)
This story was about a woman who plans a heist in order to get a necklace that once belonged to her mother back from her stepmother. But it's a trap set by the owners of the casino her stepmother is staying at. These handsome twins didn't expect their burglar to be a woman. But they find her attractive and have plans for her if she wants to stay out of jail that is. The sex was hot and there was a lot of spanking. Really fun read.

Trent Evans (Taking the Human)
This story was hot! The story had a lot of depth and the sex was off the charts sexy. It's about an alien who finds himself attracted to a human and decides to go against orders and take her for his own pleasure. At first she's a slave, a plaything for his pleasure but then his and her emotions begin to grow into something more than just lust. A good story.

Annabel Joseph (Slab Hands)
This was a fun story about a girl who unexpectedly finds a guy in a club who is into spanking and decides to show her what it's like to be properly spanked. Things heats up and their relationship begins to grow. Loved the ending and the spanking was hot! Annabel Joseph writes some steamy stories.

So if you haven't figured it out by now the spankings in this story were like I said hot! If you're into spanking stories and stories of love than this anthology is for you.

Holy heat stroke! This box set lit my e-reader on fire. I loved each of the stories and couldn't get enough. Spankalicious and spicy, this Valentine's Day collection of stories is a treat better than any box of candy. The only way it could be better is if it came with a heart shaped paddle.

Nice work ladies!

5/5!

The Bound, Spanked, and Loved anthology is unique because each author brings their flavor to it. I was laughing, feeling sympathy, and at some points surprised. Each author gives us a brand new story to read and enjoy. I discovered some new authors while reading and returned to favorite authors I already know and love.

Reading Bound, Spanked, & Loved is the perfect way to get into BDSM Erotica. You'll have several new authors to add to your pile and it's a bargain price for fourteen stories!

Ladies (and gents) !!!!
this is IT !!! the #MUSThave book you all need to own, posses and learn by heart !!
every single one of these authors is my fave, and it brought me a new additions to my stalking list (I'm a nice stalker, promise !!!) and each story blew me away !! its that good !!

But with a heavy heart I need to pick out a favorite out of them all and that would be Sierra Cartwright story - Master class: Initiation <3
It's a story about Logan and Jennifer :) Logan has a mysterious job and a well known BDSM reputation, and Jennifer is business woman, with a bitter taste of past relationship and a newfound taste for BDSM.

This is a story about what happens when you let your desires come true (with a little help from mutual friends and an intentional set up), when you put your faith in a stranger, give a voice to your fantasies, dare to try and at the end gather the courage to go after what you want. And let me tell you, Sierra has every single one of these done down till perfection.

It pulls you into the story,its passion and the strength of its emotions and you can relate and feel it too (wishing for a flogger right now :) !!)

The one thing that always attracts me to a good BDSM story is the relationship between the partners, the trust. And I also learn to love the scare that comes from experiencing something as powerful as that. Sierra knows her business and she makes is THAT GOOD !!!! oh, don't get me started on the rules of the game, and the psychology behind it and overcoming the mental obstacle's to reach the pleasure.

I can go on like this until tomorrow, but my advice is to read it, and read all of the stories and get lost in the sizzling heat, passion and kinky f**kery (its been know phrase)

I usually read an anthology and think that some of the stories are good, some are OK, and some I just don't finish because they bore me. That's not what happened when I read this book. Every single story in Bound, Spanked and Loved was hot. They were scorching. There were 14 stories in total and I LOVED every one of them. There was something for everyone. There was Domestic Discipline, light BDSM, Alien Abduction, Step-Brother alpha, and more. I've read all of these authors before so I knew I would like the book, but I didn't know how much. If you're into kinky stories then you can't go wrong with these Valentine's stories. Some of the stories are part of different series, but they can all be read as standalones. After reading these you'll eagerly seek out each of these authors to read more. I can't recommend this book enough and wish I could give it more than FIVE STARS!

I bought this anthology mostly because I am a Sierra Cartwright fan, and will read everything she writes. But to get this anthology of almost 800 pages for 99 cents is unbelievable! Sierra scores again, and this anthology also introduces me to other authors, and that's the best part - finding new authors in the genre you like to read. Every one of these stories was hot and exciting! I now have several more new to me authors to look up and buy books from! If you pass up this deal, you are crazy!

What do you get when some of the best erotic writers get together, a really great read. The anthology is a series of short stories that no matter your preference, you will find something you enjoy. Some stories grab at your heart strings, while others will make you laugh. Recommended read as an introduction to new authors to you.

Wow, what unexpected fun I had reading Bound, Spanked and Loved, a HUGE anthology of spanking and BDSM themed short stories that’s been released by fourteen authors in the genre in time for Valentine’s Day. This is quite a hefty collection at almost 800 pages and I tried to read it almost straight through so as not to forget any of these unique stories. Some of the authors included in this anthology were well known to me, including Annabel Joseph, Sierra Cartwright, and Cari Silverwood (making this a must read for me), but others were completely unknown. Don’t let the unknown scare you away, however. I’m not being cliché when I say there’s something for everyone here. It’s true that all the stories have a spanking/BDSM theme, so it should be a prerequisite that you enjoy a little kink in your reading, but the subgenres are really wide open and fascinating, from traditional Dom/sub play in an established BDSM community, to M/M/F ménage, to paranormal, to historical. I found the tie-ins to Valentine’s Day a bit forced in some, but each features not just erotic play, but a developing romance as well. You’ll get an HEA or happy for now ending for all of them. That doesn’t mean they’re all sweet and cuddly, however. The spankings and rough play in most are beyond a little slap and tickle and many ride a line of consensual non-consent that I found the most enjoyable aspect of the reading. My Kindle was on fire!
I find it REALLY hard to pick out a few favorites, as there wasn’t a single dud in the bunch, but here are my highlights:
“Slab Hands” by Annabel Jospeh, where a bouncer and a girl who wants nothing more than to be spanked by him discover each other
“Theirs to Punish” by Renee Rose, where a stepdaughter hell-bent on revenge plans a jewel heist in a Vegas hotel and is caught by two kinky brothers. The price for their silence is her submission.
“Lust Angel” by Cari Silverwood, where an angel, fallen for lusting over a mortal man, discovers her need for submission and punishment.
“Stepbrother Jerk” by Natasha Knight, where a stepbrother ensures that his naughty stepsister never breaks the law again by teaching her a lesson of who she belongs to.
I could go on! There is an alien abduction, alien ménage, a sexy private investigator, a sweet but hot historical involving an ice farmer and his feisty charge, A Viking warrior, ballroom dancing, a secret society, a sexy ex-teacher turned Dom who has quite the flogger collection and a “hero” who rescues his betrothed from slavers.
As you can see, these are anything but your usual spanking fare, and I took it as an opportunity to enjoy what variety is really out there in the world of BDSM erotic romance. So often, we read what’s in the spotlight and don’t venture off to discover new things. Well worth the $0.99 this collection will cost and each story can be read in about 30 minutes, making it easy to pace yourself and savor everything it has to offer.

I read Sue Lyndon's novella, and Sierra Cartwright's as ARCs. I truly loved both stories and thought they were wonderful! All of the stories in this set are brand new and stand alone novellas, ensuring you're not sucked into buying 15 more books!

Initiation by Sierra Cartwright was a fantastic quick read! I loved the plotline. Since it's a novella I won't go into too many details, but the heroine and her friends had me laughing, and the hero's tenderness made me audibly go "aww" more than once! For an erotic novella, I thought this was well worth 99 cents on its own.

Sue Lyndon's novella was quite a bit shorter than Miss Cartwrights, I read it in about an hour, hour and a half. I *adored* this dystopian story, though! Again with such a short story, I don't want to post spoilers, however, I adored the storyline and empathized heavily with the heroine. The hero was wonderful and the story had me sucked in from page 1 to the very end. I'm looking forward to reading every story in this set!

I received a free copy in exchange for an honest review.


This collection has a variety of topics, that there's a bit of something for everyone. From bouncers nicknamed Slab Hands to secret Valentine society, even dancing reality show to aliens to a fallen angel.

While I didn't enjoy all the stories as much as some(Lust Angel by Cari Silverwood and Slab Hands by Annabel Joseph are my two favorites), it was nice to have such a variety of stories and authors and to get a taste of what is out there in the vast world of bdsm erotica. I've even checked out some of these authors to read some of what they've written. This is a great value for sure!

I have read and enjoyed works from the majority of these authors but this anthology also allowed me to discover a few new authors and genres I usually don't read. I was not disappointed! There is something for everyone in this book (BDSM, spanking, sci-fi, etc). Sierra Cartwright, Annabel Joseph, Renee Rose, Emily Tilton, and Sue Lyndon certainly got me revved up for Valentine’s Day 2016. Added bonus for me was the low price of this book.

14 amazingly hot tales to tease and entertain!

Each story stands alone and there is a little for everyone as long as you enjoy sizzling and kinky romances! I haven't found one that I didn't enjoy reading! My top three in this great deal are Lust Angel, Slab Hands and Stepping it Up.

Perfect book for when you want to finish a story without having a lot of time

I received a copy for a honest review.
This anthology is a collection of 14 stories from light BDSM, aliens, secret society and fallen angels.
The story that stood out for me the most was Lust Angel by Cari Silverwood as I hadn't read a story about fallen angels before and I really like the concept.
If I had to pick a negative about this anthology I would say that I would have liked some of the stories to have been in better detail but I suppose that's the drawback of having short stories. It's great at giving a reader a taste of different authors work and I will definitely be checking out all the different authors books in the near future.
Bound,Spanked and Loved is a great read for the Valentine's weekend and at a great price too. It definitely deserves five stars!

Lust Angel. This title made me wonder exactly how this premise was going to work within this genre of romance novels. And I have to say after finishing the book, my socks have been blown off and I have yet to find them. This book pulls at your heartstrings and really does an excellent job of keeping you engrossed in the story. The innocence of the fallen angel shining a light on the sinister ways of Adam, a Dom. It is a classic struggle that keeps the reader engaged for the entire story. I loved the ending of the book as well; I won't spoil it for you but know tears were shed and it hits you right in the chest. Highly recommended.

I really enjoy reading anthologies. It's a great way to discover new authors that I might not have stumbled across and to also read some new works from some favourite authors. This collection of kinky short stories has something for everybody. There are stories with aliens, stepbrothers, Vikings, wealthy casino owners, bouncers, and ex soldiers who are all hot, sexy men who enjoy dominating, spanking and ultimately protecting and loving the women in their lives or in one story a fallen angel. The sex is hot and once again something for everyone. There's MF, MFM, MMMF with elements of BDSM and of course lots of spanking. It's right on the title so no surprise there. As with most anthologies there are stories I absolutely loved-Fallen Angel by Cari Silverwood, Slab Hands by Annabel Joseph, Runaway Valentine by Sue Lyndon and His to Take by Kallista Dane and some that were just okay for me(not a big fan of step brother stories, but that's just me). For me there were more stories that I loved or liked than I did not so would definitely recommend if the theme of this anthology is something you enjoy.

Very good read

This is the first collection of books I have purchased that actually are as promised. 14 complete stories by 14 Authors with no cliff hangers and very few advertisements for other books. I really enjoyed reading this collection of books with the central theme around Valentine's Day. The stories are very easy to follow. The characters are believable and stories blend well. All also have as a base a BDSM theme. I found the collection easy to read and found it very hard to put down. I also felt immersed in the stories.
The collection is well written and I find it hard to believe that all of the 13 lady Authors and the 1 male Author do not have first hand experience with the subject they are writing about. I do recommend this book to adult readers

Korey Mae and Sue were good as well, but the others, eh, could've skipped them and had a five star rating!

This collection of stories was smoking hot. I only knew one author Cari Silverwood who I love her work but now I plan on exploring some new authors. That is the best part of these collections is finding new authors to love.

I think I had an inkling of what I thought I was about to get myself into. But I got so much more than I bargained for. With stories from several authors I already know and love, I knew I was going to enjoy this book filled with strong alphas and the feisty women in their lives. I was not at all prepared for the emotional depths many of these stories go to. Several of them had me in tears before the end. I think I’ve found some new favorite authors and a bunch more books to add to my every expanding ‘want to read someday’ bookshelf.
