Book Overview
WARNING! If you are a reader who doesn’t enjoy dark romance, hot sex, poetic justice or happy endings, please don’t read this book. It contains strong elements of erotica, sexual sadism, spanking, violence and a woman who is not afraid to kick-butt as she faces her worse nightmares to save the man she loves.
In a post-apocalyptic world run by a government bent on mastering what remains of the human race, one woman is equally determined to find freedom and happiness. Selina Pauline Ryder (AKA Spyder), a Lair trained dominatrix/whip mistress and noted war criminal, escapes the sadistic cruelty of a man who purchased her as a toy for torture. After an ‘unfortunate accident’ occurs to her master, Spyder flees to the neutral country of Scotland to begin a new life for herself. The war-ravaged countryside is home to gangs of renegades and escaped felons—and Spyder finds herself being rescued by the infamous (and incredibly handsome) German war criminal himself known as ‘Viktor-The Bull’.
Hiding in an old deserted church, the couple discovers a common past which binds them together as Spyder tries to nurse Viktor back to health following a severe injury. Desperate to save his life, she accepts the offer to work with the illegal and corrupt Carnivale Diabhail in exchange for his care. Her plan was simple—pay off the debt and depart the sordid festival of corruption after Viktor healed. Little did she realize that once someone joined the carnival, they never left alive.
Spyder thought she’d seen the worst of humanity. The terrors of war—prison—the knives used by her deceased master—all these faded in the face of Tobias, the Devil incarnate, and his malevolent underlings. She also finds power in both lust and love as she focuses on saving both herself and The Bull from the clutches of evil.
Cruelty, saturated in unchecked power and insanity, knows no bounds. In a place where right and wrong begin to cloud, Spyder spins a web of manipulation. It’s a dangerous game she plays, but also her only hope of survival. Can she partake of evil to survive and still retain herself?
This is a stand alone book waiting to be savored with dark characters and darker deeds.
Are you ready to be pulled into Spyder’s Web and experience the Carnivale for yourself?
From my first publication in 2012 to now, I’ve put out over 70 titles—every one of them different, unique and with a special purpose. What’s that? As a BDSM lifestyler, I want my readers to be entertained but also trust they will get truth and reality of the BDSM/Age-Play/Total Power and Erotic Exchange lifestyle in my books. My hope is that they not only walk away entertained (and a little horny), but also wanting more.
I don’t think there’s a genre of erotica that I don’t enjoy writing; hence, I’ve developed an extensive collection that ranges from Historical Victorian to Science Fiction, Contemporary/Historical Westerns, Humor, Post-Apocalyptic, Fantasy and everything in between. My readers are smart (and a little sadistic) and don’t hesitate to let me know EXACTLY what they want—and I do my best to make them happy. My readers are everything to me and I strive to provide something for everyone. I’ve also published non-fiction pieces that share how I was introduced to the Age-Play lifestyle (The General’s Little Angel and A Little Play Day). In the spirit of paying it forward to my first Dom who not only blistered my tail, but saved my life, the proceeds from The General’s Little Angel have been donated to the National Coalition Against Domestic Violence.
I’m known best for my Age-Play books and my spanking/sex scenes. Each book has different heat levels appropriate for the story and always involve committed relationships, including those with multiple and/or same sex partners, consensual (except in horror/post-apop where the bad guy always gets his in the end—sometimes literally!), and have a strong story line that keeps the reader engaged and invested in the characters.
Warning—most of my readers say that they cry at the end and then spend the rest of the day looking like clowns because they can’t stop smiling.
So what makes me, well, me?
I’m a native Californian gone 'wild', and had the opportunity to travel the globe and discover the world through the eyes of both a Marine Intelligence specialist and a BDSM lifestyler. I left the service to go into hospice nursing and grief counseling, eventually working as a marriage and family therapist for those involved in alternative lifestyle development. This experience has allowed me to gain unique inspiration for my books and provide realistic plots and relatable characters.
In 2004, my husband, John, and I joined forces to work with both submissives and dominants- teaching, training, listening and loving. Our goal was to take the mystery and fear out of the lifestyle and mentor people in safe, consensual and healthy relationships.
My first book, The Game Plan, was published in 2012 and opened the door to the now-booming world of Age-Play literature. Since that time, I’ve devoted my ‘spare’ time to writing, researching, community involvement, and private and group pro bono counseling in deviant behavior, alternative lifestyle, and addiction recovery.
I was formally ‘dungeon trained’ as a Domme before discovering my submissive side when I joined the service. My scenarios are pulled primarily from either personal experience or observation, including spending time in clubs as the safety/medical officer. My multi-faceted background allows me to glean from many avenues and provides a unique and intelligent literary experience through elements of fantasy and fiction. I also address the questions and psychology of the lifestyle in a manner that is fun and informative, and based on 'the real deal'.
I live with my husband, musician, and fellow-author, John Hayse, and two border collies in southern California. We practice a 24/7 D&S relationship with speckles of AP (and many trips to Build-A-Bear), and happily spend every moment together that we can. My hobbies include my puppies, hiding my vanilla salt-water taffy where John can't find it, exotic art, collecting inspirational trinkets, and developing my own paddle line. You can also see me as a featured author/instructor in professional conference settings and as a Sexpert for kinkyliterature.com.
