Carnal Mischief #1

Stiff Discipline

Rate this book
I’ll ruin her if she doesn’t ruin me first…

When a gorgeous new tenant slips into my office the night of her twenty-first birthday with only one thing on her mind, I know I should send her on her way. Even if the thought of her tied up and at my mercy makes me ache.

I’m a harsh, demanding man, and Kymber’s too young, too innocent. A goddamn virgin. I hate myself for even thinking about stealing what should belong to another.

So I do the honorable thing. I walk away.

My babygirl is just as stubborn as me, though. Twenty-two years in the military, my discipline never faltered. Not once. And yet the feel of her trembling against me, begging for my permission, makes me lose all control.

Her innocent touch kick starts my battered heart. But my past left me with an emptiness I can’t fill, and I’ll be damned if I let my darkness destroy her light…

STIFF DISCIPLINE is a hot as hell standalone M/F romance with a dominant hero who plays on the edge. No cheating, and a HEA is guaranteed!

4 Fucky Lucky Stars ⭐

"You don’t want your first time to be with some limp-dick underachiever who can’t get it up, do you?"

Kymber wants to remedy a crucial part she’s missed by working abroad for the last 3 years. Now back in New York it’s time to lose her V Card. But a night out on town with her bestie Bekka has been a bust. So, in their drunken wisdom, they decide that Kymber should seduce the owner of their apartment building; well his son in fact.

"You get one life, bitch, so you better grab it by the balls and yell ‘giddyap’."

As you would imagine, it isn’t the best thought out plan. Because instead of the intended, it’s daddy dearest that she crosses paths with. Daniel Black is an army veteran and single dad; and frankly a man of very few words. But he is human and being propositioned by a much younger woman is a little too irresistible.

"Would you like to come upstairs and have sex with me?"

Regardless of whether Daniel tries to do the right thing by Kymber, she’s set her sights on him. And her submissive persona is a huge red flag for him. Let’s just say that she’s struck the jackpot with Daniel. He is all man and knows how to make her body sing, tremble, explode…

"I want to grin at how much I’m going to make her beg before the night is over, but I know any smile I give her now will look feral. And make no mistake—this girl’s pleasure is my mission."

Ah yes, please! Stiff Discipline was a fantasy come to life. Because sometimes a girl needs a little restraining and a love slap just to set the mood. And Colonel Daniel Black knew exactly what his baby girl needed. Sounds skeevy? Not at all. It was hot as hell, a hoot in parts and unputdownable.

“Daniel, babygirl. My name is Daniel, and that’s what you’ll be screaming before the night is over.”

Holy "fucky lucky" hotness! This was one scorching read🔥

21-year old Kymber is desperate to lose her virginity, and she wants ex-military commander Daniel to be the one, because even his voice is enough to turn her on!

Caramel-dipped orgasms wrapped in chocolate. That’s how his voice feels as it rumbles over my skin.

From the moment Daniel sees Kymber, he is obsessed with her, and even their 19-year age difference can't stop his desire.

I just want to touch her. Taste her. Fucking own her.

These two had insane chemistry!

I craved a longer book so we could get some of their emotional connection as well, because honestly, there's not much of a plot here.


I really liked Bekka's character. She is Kymber's 'best friend and sex guru all wrapped in a hot little package'. I loved her from the moment she dropped her iconic dialogue:

“You don’t want your first time to be with some limp-dick underachiever who can’t get it up, do you?”

I can't wait to read her and Adam's book!

Oh sweet mother of hotness, it was something!!!

There is some insta-lust present, yes, but if you ignore it, you are in for some delicious kinky sweetness, because the hot hunk of a man, Daniel, delivered!! Kymber was a lovely splash of light and fun to his intense. Together they burned through the pages!

The hairs on my arms stand up. Caramel-dipped orgasms wrapped in chocolate. That's how his voice feels as it rumbles over my skin.
- yes, please.

It was hot, a bit angsty and so well done. This author is becoming one of my favorites very fast.

PS. The model on the cover is waaaay to young though.

5 “Please let me come” stars ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

I slide my fingers along the column of her neck, and her skin erupts in goose bumps. “
“Oh God.”
Her whimper is music to my ears.
“Daniel, babygirl. My name is Daniel, and that’s what you’ll be screaming before the night is over.”


Holy mother of hotness.....This book was sizzling and scorching and everything in between. I kept seeing this in my feed so many times that I finally gave in.... I mean that was definitely some kinda a sign. After a dark read, this was exactly what I needed a dose of. I couldn’t get enough of these MCs. If that sexy as fuck cover alone doesn’t convince you to pick up this book then I’m pretty sure my review will. ;)

Here it goes...
It starts with two best friends, Kymber and Bekka, out for a night at a club dancing their hearts out when suddenly kymber shouts.....
“I’m done being a virgin!”
And so begins a mischievous plan to and a start to what will be a steamy and romantic love story.

Upon her friend bekka’s insistence, kymber decides to seduce her building owner’s son to loose her v-card BUT life has other plans. She doesn’t expect to fall in instant lust with the reclusive owner Daniel Black. Their chemistry was potent even before they said a single word. Her attempt at seduction fails leaving her flushed and nervous around his dominance and intense energy. Just when she thinks and feels he’s going to give in, he ends up leaving her alone and defeated.

Daniel has never felt lust this strong or someone who has the power to unleash his control with their eyes and submission alone. He knows he’s too old and damaged for her but all bets are off when he hears her whispered words...
Would you like to come upstairs and have sex with me?
He did not stood a chance.

I’m going to ruin that perfect little pussy.
“ I wanted to bend you over my desk,” I grind out. “Wanted to shove that tiny dress over your ass and fuck you right there.”
“Why didn’t you?” Her voice has some sass in it, and I bite back a grin. My men would never talk back to me, yet this slip of a girl dares. I’d love to put her over my knee and spank that smart ass until she begs me to stop.


Then happens the most erotic and intense encounter that left me stunned and so hot and bothered. Daniel black was one intense Dom with a wicked and dirty mouth. He could make me blush with just a look. A filthy guy with a beautiful heart.

I told her how fucking perfect she is? I just didn’t realize what I was saying.
That she’s perfect for me.
Everything about her does it for me. She’s sexy as fuck, but it’s more than that.


Daniel is left jaded and secluded due to his years spent in the army. He’s always taking care of others. He feels he’s too old for her and will leave her hurt and disappointed but that is so far from the truth. He just needs someone who takes care of him and makes him happy and deserving of love and that’s exactly what he got in kymber.

”Please,” I choke out.
“Please what, babygirl?”
God, he almost sounds amused.
A sob breaks from my lips. I need him to give me permission, and I don’t know why. I could tumble over the edge at any second, but I fight it because I want to please him. I want him to have complete control over my body. I try to swallow past his grip on my neck.
“Please let me come.”


Kymber is someone I would wanna be friends with. She’s funny, smart, caring and beautiful. She sees past his walls and wants him for who he is. He might be colonel to everyone but to her he’s Daniel. The one who lights up her world both in and out of bed.

”You, the you that you are right now, is more than enough, Daniel,” she says. “I’ve never felt like this before. The moment I saw you, something clicked and it’s like…you’re where I belong. I can’t explain it. I just know I want to be with you, and I’m willing to take the chance because you’re worth it.”

Despite it being insta lust/love, I still felt they belonged together and never once it felt fast or forced. Together they were explosive and the sex scenes are super steamy and panty melting with quite a heavy dose of dirty talk. I liked the fact that there was no unnecessary drama or separation between them. Daniel was one smart man. He knew what he was getting was once in a lifetime and should let her in with open arms.

Then my friend’s they lived happily ever after.
This was a perfect short smutty read with kickass side characters especially Bekka. Two MCs with great chemistry and an amazing author who’s writing will suck you in and filled with heat and so much steam.

Highly recommended. ♥️

for a short novella this could’ve easily been a 4 star read for me but i just can’t do that, man and that’s mainly because of how 𝖕𝖎𝖘𝖘𝖊𝖉 i am that this is not a full length novel.
oof can you imagine if it was?!?! the proper intro and character development, angsty conflicts, the spice, THE flavORR...

just yUM.

Anyways this was super insta lust (didnt really dig that) and had a Birthday Girl by Penelope Douglas vibe (digged that shit so fucking hard, like YES)
can you tell i’m dying for recommendations of really great age gap romance bcs...ᵈᵃᵈᵈʸ ⁱˢˢᵘᵉˢ


“Caramel-dipped orgasms wrapped in chocolate. That’s how his voice feels as it rumbles over my skin.”

4 STARS!
"The moment I saw you, something clicked."
Short, sweet, and above all: HOT!! 🔥 Daniel 🔥 Daniel 🔥 Daniel 🔥
If avenging angels came to earth, they would look like this man, hard and unyielding.
Plot in a nutshell: Kymber wants to divest herself of her V-card, and circumstances lead her to Daniel.
"You are waving a red flag in front of a fucking bull, babygirl."
Despite the incredible chemistry between them, he's reluctant. He's 20 years older and a loner and doesn't relish the drama he assumes will result. But Kymber's made up her mind.
That he thinks he's being noble only makes me want him more.
She loves how he oozes dominance.
I'm a trembling, whimpering mess, and I need to come but I want to be his good girl.
It takes them a bit, but they finally come to the same conclusion: they're perfect for each other.

Absolutely nothing to complain about here except the length. The writing, the characters and the story were all good . . . if the author had developed it into a full-length novel, I'd have given it 5 stars.

Happy reading!

"Would you like to come upstairs and have sex with me?" That's how everything started. A line I can only hope to one day have the confidence to use.

This book got steamy in a hurry which is much appreciated because I hate waiting around for the good parts. Let me tell you, there were a lot of good parts!

Kymber is a confident 21-year-old woman who wants to lose her virginity in a quick, no strings attached way. I love how the author didn't make a big deal about the first time needing to be special or mean something - good was the priority here.

The purpose of this book is to steam up your Kindle, and it accomplished that goal well. Impressively though, the author drew me into the story and allowed me to fall in love with the characters and become invested in their lives and happiness. That's difficult to do in a short, hot read such a this.

Overall, Stiff Discipline is a wonderfully engaging, quick read. It was perfect for a summer evening on the deck.

Fast, furious, and flipping hot
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Are you in need of a quickie? Sometimes we are looking for a hot read and not a lot of substance. In that case, this is the book for you.

Cole hits all of the hot spots with a April to September romance and love fest. These pages are burning up with a taste of erotica and a gruff, rigid military man who can really break ranks in a most delicious way!

Loaded with creativity and steamy sex, you get what you ask for in this quick read. Not a lot of character development but a hot ass read with a lovely HEA and an upcoming sequel starring the son! What more do we need? Steam times two! Sign me up!

Holy Hotness. Let me tell you we all could use a Daniel in our lives. That mouth was something else. This book is right up my Alley, age gap, light BDSM, and amazing chemistry.

Kymber just turned 21 and celebrating her birthday with her Best Friend, Bekka. Kymbernosnoit to get rid of her V-Card. Along comes, Daniel, older, retired, military, and owner of there apartment building. He is just a big ball of HOLY HOTNESS and instantly attracted to Kymber.

Would you like to come upstairs and have sex with me?

Is how it all starts and is just hot and steamy from there. I swear I could feel every time Daniel growled. A short and steamy book.

This book is a fun romp. Daniel is a 40 yo retired Colonel who is a perfect male human specimen. Kymber is 21 and wants to lose her v-card. She sets her sights on Daniel’s son, Adam, but ends up running into Daniel instead. The chemistry is OTC and there are many hot scenes.



Kymber is, thankfully, mature for her age. I understand Daniel’s mental dilemma. The romance is fast and it is pretty much instalove. I have a hard time buying instalove. I didn’t see that they had much in common other than the sex and submission, but Kymber makes him laugh so they end up together. I’ll look for Adam and Bekka’s story.

3 Smutty Stars
This is pretty much smut, but it’s sort of slower flow smut as it takes 25% to get to any action, and then halfway to seal the deal. There isn’t much of a plot other than Kymber wanting to lose her virginity, and Daniel being hung up on their age difference. (her 21 to his 40) There’s a smidge of push/pull, but it doesn’t really generate any angst or drama, because K isn’t deterred/hurt/resentful from being rejected.

The first 10% was a bit much for me; Kymber is out with her equally immature BFF; it was silly, and I’m not the most patient with grown women acting like 16-year old’s…BUT… She moves on from that pretty quickly, and, a major plus is that she’s not a prude virgin, and gets her freak on straightaway.

Bottom Line- You really have to be in the right mood (craving fluffy smut) to enjoy it. The sexytime is of the dom/sub variety. I really wasn’t in the mood, so I’m tempted to not rate, but will just make it a *** and call it a day.

Stiff Discipline was a quick and hot story. It was taboo, sexy and was such a fun palette cleanser. Kymber and Daniel had combustible chemistry. This story was pure insta-love but it was what it was as you went in figuring that. Despite this, I loved their banter and chemistry and was hooked! I can't wait to read Adam and Bekka's story!

I would like to thank Netgalley and the publisher for an advanced copy of this book for an honest review! 4 stars! ~Ratula

When Kymber decided to lose her V-card on her 21st birthday, she knew what she wanted. What she found was not only the wrong man, but sparks fly. She gets more than she’s expecting in Daniel Black.

Daniel is a hard man. Jaded by the life he’s led. He can’t seem to resist her. Has he found what was missing in Kymber? Will he take what she’s offering?

These two are explosive in bed. The story was good, if a bit short. The fire is on and these two sure know how to keep the heat building! This was a good read that I would recommend to all Erotic Romance readers! 5⭐️

Up All Night w/ Books Blog


Older Col. and a young tenant collide in a filthy, addictive, page-turner romance!

Kymber’s waking something inside me that I thought was dead. I want to protect her, own her, keep her as mine. I want to be the only one who gives her pleasure and pain.

Stiff Discipline by Ember Cole was a quick, fun read that turned dirty and hot in mere seconds. Ember knows how to turn up the volume and she excelled well. I didn’t realize I was about to venture into a taboo theme romance with a older man/younger female, but this was a very well written novel that I wish was a little bit longer. I wanted more epilogues!

Col. Daniel Black only knows how to take charge. He gives the orders and that’s that, but when twenty-one year old Kymber knocks on his door his restraint goes out the window. Daniel knows it’s oh, so wrong… Kymber doesn’t care about his age, she knows he needs to be cared for. What will come of their predicament?

Pick up this 4 Star read for a dirty talking, Dominant Colonel who needs a little bit of love in his life.

I voluntarily read and reviewed an advanced copy of this book. All thoughts and opinions are my own.

This was a short read but a good one! Absolutely loved the main characters! Hot and steamy read, very fast paced and easy to read!

Kymber comes back after three years overseas from an assignment to do with teaching other children from other countries. It’s her 21st birthday and she finds herself still a virgin and she wants to fix the “situation”. So her and her best friend go in search for someone for a one night stand and they come across Adam.

Adam’s 20 years older than her and a rough, hard and no-bullsh*t military man. Adam can tell there is something between the two of them but he tries to fight his attraction for young Kymber and she to can feel it. Adam isn’t the guy for her, he’s rough, hard and the total opposite to the innocent young girl. But he can’t seem to stay away, can’t seem to ignore the desire he has to claim her.

Stiff Discipline by Ember Cole is the story of Kymber and Adam.
Kymber is celebrating her 21 birthday with her best friend. Kymber has been away for three years on a college assignment trip teaching children in another country. Which has kept her a Virgin...not wanting to continue being such she and her friend try to think of someone that would be a good fit for her to have a one night stand. Which leads them to the son of the owner of their building. When Kymber goes to do the seduction in office she finds Adam. Their is a quick attraction that Adam tries to fight. Adam is 20 years older than her and harden military man..not someone a young innocent lady should be messing with but he can't seem to walk away.
I was totally in love with their story and could not put the book down until the end! I hope to read more by this author soon!!

She's twenty-one. Gorgeous. And has just snuck into my office. And the only thing on her mind is me. She's too young. Too innocent. And I want her too much. I can already visualize the things I want to do to her. Even though doing so makes me hate myself, I do the right thing and walk away. I'm doing this for her, because staying would've definitely been for me.

What I didn't count on was how stubborn my baby girl is. I was in the military longer than she's been alive. I endured countless things others couldn't even imagine and survived, and yet, she's my biggest foe. She's determined to lose her virginity and I'm her choice to take it.

I'm not sure how much longer I can resist, or if I even want to anymore. Kymber isn't a sheltered woman. She spent three years overseas teaching children and Adam just calls to her, on more than a physical level, though he is sexy.

But Adam's past has left a darkness inside him from what he had to do and see and he doesn't want to taint Kymber with that, to extinguish the light inside her. However, the opposite is happening. She quiets his darkness, brightens his life and the more he experiences it, the more he wants it.

What happens when Kymber refuses to take no for an answer? Will Adam cave and do what they both yearn to? Is their time together a one time thing? Or will the connection between them burn to bright to go out?

One-click now and follow along as two people, a man and woman you'd think were complete opposites, discover something in the other they need.

So the book started off with a bang. I was thinking. Yes! This is what I'm looking for. I want something gritty with a gruff intense hero and a naive girl. I was really getting into it and then looked down to see I was at 25% in the book. Wait what. It just started.

Then I realized this was an off-shoot of Entangled publishing. Sigh. I didn't realize they had this line. Called...wait for it..."One Handed Reads". I pretty much just threw up in my moth just typing that. Ew. I guess it is supposed to compete with things like Carina's "Dirty Bits" line (Much more palpable title by the way).

Anyway, I do occasionally look for something quick and steamy when I'm short on time and want to get a quick book in. I was just disappointed because it started out SO GOOD! Then...bam. It was over. I would have loved to see this one in a full length novel.

So I'm rating it based on what it was and what you should be expecting from a line called..nope can't write it again. See above. A very short, very dirty read. Think 99% sex, 1% plot. So...porn. But, the sex was really super hot, and I enjoyed the characters. For the length the author did a good job of packing a lot in and somehow managing to get a bit of information about the characters out there. I enjoyed it, I just really wish it had been a novel. I haven't read anything by this author before but would pick something up if it were a longer length.

A Perfect Recipe For a Successful Book

What do get when you have Daniel, a mature, sexy, retired Lt. Col. ready to live the rest of his life as a civilian building owner, and a father to his adult son, then add in Kymber, a leggy, beautiful, young college student, and his tenant who is hell bent on losing her v-card on the night of her 21st birthday. You get the components for a sizzling connection if the storyline is right, and believe me, this story line is right. Kymber is seeking out his son, Adam but sets her sights on his dad to do the deed of deflowering her when she sees his ripped abs, bulging biceps and well, his other bulging body parts. Daniel tries to resist Kymber’s innocent charms, but finally relents and gives in to her desires. He awakens confidence and sensuality in her, and she brings love and desires he’s long ago given up on. I admit I am a sucker for an older man/younger woman romance, but this one rises above all of my expectations. I highly recommend this sensual, tantalizing book.

Thanks for an ARC to read and give my honest opinion. Sexy cover, nice blurb, but that title drew me in....wowsa.

Kymber makes it to her 21st birthday a virgin. A night on the town makes her throw caution to the wind and look for the one guy who will take that virginity. What she finds though is a love that is disciplined....stiff discipline.

Daniel thought his life couldn't get any better when a long legged beauty walked into his office and offers him sex. A retired Colonel, his attraction to Kymber is instant.

This book offers light bdsm, and sadly no spanking scenes. Even though spanking is mentioned. The chemistry is combustible between the two and the only trouble seems to be the age gap. Twenty year difference between Daniel and Kymber. Still this was a fun and flirty read, and I would definitely read more by this author. Four stars of entertainment! Thanks for a great read!

I was granted a copy of the book via NetGalley. This is my second book from the author and I really like what I've read so far!

Kymber and Daniel's story is hot hot hot!! Kymber is turning 21 and she's still a virgin. Her goal for the night: to lose her virginity. Bekka, her best friend, suggests their landlord's son, Adam. Her plan goes sideways when instead of Adam, she meets Daniel, their landlord. Daniel is almost twice her years, an ex-military man with a commanding presence. The attraction between them is instant but Daniel tries hard to stop Kymber's advances. Who doesn't like a dirty talking alpha male, right?? Daniel is exactly that!!

I laughed so much with Bekka's antics. She's seriously the best and craziest best friend a girl can ask for! Daniel confused me. He gave so many mixed signals. He tries so hard to not let his demons get the better of him. However, does he have the strength to succeed?

Ember Cole really knows how to write hot and steamy reads, that leave you wanting more! I can't wait for Bekka's story next. I really want to see who will bring this sassy woman to her knees :-P .

Eh... it was okay. Nothing great, but at the same time nothing horrible.

This book was definitely focused more on the intimacy scenes than on the background of the characters. While this usually isn't something I would complain about, I think it took away from the relationship of the couple. I didn't find that they knew much about each other outside of the bedroom. I found them falling in love to be difficult to believe given how their relationship seemed focus only on the bedroom.

This book could have been so much more if the author had been willing to expand the book.

I went into this book thinking that it wouldn't live up to my expectations but I was proven to be very wrong. This story was surprisingly very interesting and well developed. The characters had depth to them and they seemed very realistic. The story seemed to develop a little quickly but it wasn't so quick that it made me doubt the relationship between the two characters. It was nice to have perspective from both characters instead of just one in the relationship. Getting to learn Daniel's backstory made him seem more human and allowed the reader to connect with him a lot more. As soon as I finished it, I wanted to immediately start the next book in this series. I highly recommend this book to anyone who is into erotica/romance or is a fan of the "Fifty Shades" series!

This was a quick, fast paced insta love story featuring a sexy, broody 40ish dom and a 21 year old virgin. That got down and dirty real quick and kept me engaged throughout. Thanks to very likable characters, humour and plenty of heat. And I'd happily recommend it to others.

This was a good read!! Kymber has been wanting to lose her v card for a while and she wants to do this right! It's her way and her boldness that gets her back to the apartment building and in the supers office and she lets Daniel have it. She comes at him like a force to be reckoned with. Daniel being ex military no one barges in on him and tells him anything! Hot book!! Hot🔥read!! Yes please!!

I received this ARC from the publisher at my request via Net Galley for my honest opinion. Thank you Net Galley!¡

A story of redemption with a sexy twist. Sometimes you meet that one person in life who can pull you out of the dark place you have buried yourself. For Daniel that person was Kymber. For some there relationship may not have seemed traditional, but for them it was perfect. An endearing love story with lots of hot sex.
