ONWARDS AND UPWARD TO NEW CHALLENGES AND ADVENTURES

I enjoyed this western page-turner with a delightful cast of characters, plenty of interaction, mystery, suspense, secrets, and adventures. What starts as a life and death escape for Beth will change her along the journey and open her eyes to new and erotic experiences.

Mrs. Charlotte Terrell will rescue Beth McMahon at the train depot. Charlotte sees this young woman, dressed in boys clothes and men searching for her, she must help her escape. The train trip will enlighten Beth to the life and adventures of Charlotte, and she will learn about shocking things along the way. Charlotte will share a stack of letters from the past two years where she has corresponded with three brothers, John, Thomas, and Jack Granger.

The plot will have Charlotte pulling a fast one and having everyone believing that Beth is Mrs. Terrell. Beth will arrive at Fairfield, Arizona and when Jake shows up at the train to get her, she doesn’t know what to tell him—or his brothers. With the Vicar injured, she will be taken to their ranch, hours from town before they have a chance to marry—yes, her to all three brothers. While no marriage has taken place, Beth hasn’t revealed her identity, and the Granger men believe her to be a highly sexual widow who has agreed to all their various proclivities. Having a safe word in place, she doesn’t know what it is and must endure punishments without protection.

“Sometimes, you just have to throw caution to the wind and do something insane, no matter how frightened you are or knowing how easily it could all go wrong.”

The story details the letters, the adventures, and the erotic and sometimes shocking proclivities of Mrs. Terrell and her encounters. Beth will learn more about what the Granger men want from Charlotte, especially through their letters. Reading it and experiencing it are two different things. Beth will learn that she easily capitulates to John and is drawn to his dominance and control. There is plenty of action, danger, life and death, suspense, and passion in this tale—along with the good, the bad, and the ugly.

“I hope all your tomorrows have nothing but happiness for you.”

What an interesting story. It was set back in the ‘Wild West’ time although I think in general this book was not about being historically accurate. However, this is not something that bothers me. I found Beth’s predicament highly fascinating and the way the story unfolded unpredictable (in a good way). This was sexy and angsty (and I’m all about tension in books). I’ve loved Ms. Taylor’s books in the past and this story did not disappoint. This was a very different kind of book, but a great read!

I am a huge fan of Ms Taylor's books and have read all of them literally on the day that they were released. This is a total departure from her regular genre - It is a historical western set in the days of the wild west. Beth is trying to escape being forced into a marriage to a man 25 years older who is a lecherous old drunk who tried to assault her when she was 14. She is being forced by her stepfather whose public personna is as a kind and pious man when in actual fact he is cruel and drunken bully who beats her regularly and also makes inappropriate advances toward her. We first meet Beth when she is hiding in a the train station. A complete a stranger Mrs Terrell beckons to her to come aboard the train and then offers to hide Beth in her skirts. Mrs Terrell shields Beth from her stepfather when he boards the train looking for her and suggest that Beth accompany her to the West (Arizona) - she is travelling West to marry 3 men. This is where the story becomes a little unconventional for a western spanking romance. In fact it becomes more of a BDSM western spanking romance. Really this is a charming story told with great humour. The characters are likeable and fun. A really entertaining read with a little of everything, hot steamy scenes, plot twists, action and loads of eye watering spanking, just what a spanking DD romance should be and I really loved it. Keep them coming Catherine but sometime please finish the Master series. Five big shiny stars for this one.

Beth is a young lady trying to escape her stepfather and fiance. Mrs Terrell motions for Beth to board the train and then offers to hide Beth from her stepfather in her skirts . Once her stepfather leaves, Mrs. Terrell asks Beth to accompany her out west. She tells Beth that she is going out to marry three men. Of course, this intrigues Beth and Mrs. Terrell starts her story. What we learn later is that Mrs. Terrell is sick and wants Beth to take her place. Beth does so unwillingly, but is intrigued by the three brothers . What ensues is a wonderful story. I highly recommend this book!!!

Beth is running from a stepfather and a man who wants to marry her and hurt her. As she is trying to escape, she meets a woman named Mrs. Terrell who helps her hide on the train. Turns out Mrs. Terrell is traveling west to marry three men. Very unusual, but she is ill and knows she won't make the trip. She sets Beth up to take her place.

Beth isn't really willing to marry - especially three brothers. It is clear that she has a special spark for John and he for her. Can these two find a way to be together in the shadow of his brothers? When someone tries to hurt Beth, will John be the one to save her.

Cute story, not as explicit as the description sounds. Very good read.

Fabulous Story !!!

I thoroughly enjoyed this book from start to finish, and was unable to put it down. The author created characters that you quickly and easily loved or hated, the suspense was thrilling, and the sex was steaming hot. I especially enjoy a book in which the lead female role is sassy, naughty and constantly the recipient of OTK bare-bottom spankings. This book had everything necessary for a wonderful, relaxing, escape from the real world. Thank you, author, for a fabulous evening of reading pleasure!

It's been a while since I've seen anything from this author, so I was excited to see a new book. I wasn't disappointed as this one pulled me in from the beginning. I really liked the characters, and loved the twists and turns of the story. Although this seemed to be offered as a standalone, I would love to see the author turn it into a series.

This book was great for the most part. I liked the plot. The climax was great. As was the writing. The sex was slightly lacking but overall not a bad book. What I didn't like was that the book started with her slated to have three husbands to ending up with only one. It was odd. I'm not sure why the author decided to bring up the idea of three husbands if she never intended to keep with it.
