CLAIMED: A Tale of Surrender
Out on Amazon, now! Click here…
My first official release as a self-publishing author! Little scary…okay, quite scary, but good in a sort of can’t believe I’m finally doing this sort of way.
Claimed was such a special labor of love for me. It’s a shorter story at around 11,000 words, but I spent months writing it, wanting to really give these two characters a night they couldn’t let go of. Sometimes we just meet that someone and everything falls into place.

This is reckless, I know. Dangerous. Perhaps even stupid. But I can’t spend another night alone. I won’t. There’s something out there waiting for me, I know it. The problem is I’m not sure who or what it is I’m searching for. All I know is I’m tired of hiding, tired of being afraid. Only I’ve kept myself sheltered for too long. Because now the touch of a man is not just something I want, it’s something I need. And need makes you do things…things you might otherwise not do.

“Are you afraid?” he asks.
“Yes,” I say with a rush of breath. “I’m not—I’ve never…”
“Done this sort of thing before?”
I nod, sensing he wears a slight smile.
Teeth nip at my earlobe and I shiver.
“Fear heightens the senses,” he explains gently. “Consider fear a gift.”

This story contains explicit sex scenes and strong/rough elements of Dominance and Submission.
