Of Frustration and Temptation
Being an author is not for sissies. You pour your heart and soul
into your stories. You spend hours of your scarce time and more money than you can
afford on marketing. With each new release, you hope you’ll finally grab the attention
of the book-buying crowd, that you’ll get the readership and the remuneration you
deserve.
If that doesn’t happen (and given the number of people publishing
books these days, odds are that it won’t), you’re stuck with the bitter knowledge
that all your passion and effort were for nothing. This can be deeply demoralizing,
even if you’re not trying to make your living as an author. If you depend on your
writing to pay your bills, you’ve got financial anxiety added to your frustration.
I know this frustration only too well. My books receive consistent
five star reviews, but somehow I’ve never been a commercial success. Thus, Damned
If You Do is a rather personal story.
What would I do if I could magically turn my books into best sellers?
How much would that be worth to me? That’s the question my romance author heroine
faces when a mysterious stranger shows up waving a contract and promising her fame
and fortune, sensual pleasure and the fulfillment of her most secret desires.
All he asks in return is her soul.
Crazy. Dangerous, maybe. But so, so tempting!
Starving author Wendy Dennison signs a contract with a charismatic
stranger, exchanging her soul and her body for fame and commercial success. When
she discovers her mild mannered agent Dan has a dominant side, she’s forced to choose
either celebrity and wealth, or obscurity and true love.
Excerpt
The smoke-tinted windows created a perpetual twilight within the
vehicle. An equally dark barrier separated the spacious back seat from the driver
in front. No one could see the lewd manner in which Mister B dragged her shirt up
to her armpits and her bra down to her waist, exposing her ample breasts. When he
twisted her nipple with impeccably manicured fingers, lust poured through her, as
though he’d opened a spigot. Her pussy overflowed to further drench her already-sodden
panties. She squirmed on the slick seat, hungry for stimulation.
Without releasing her breast, he rubbed two fingers along the damp
seam of her jeans. Wendy couldn’t suppress a desperate moan. He chuckled as he sniffed
his fingertips. “Your fragrance is exquisite, my dear.” Cupping her pubis, he ground
the heel of his hand against her clit while his fingers beat out a frustrating rhythm
against the tightly stretched denim between her thighs.
She hadn’t been this turned on in months—no, years. The substantial
bulge at his fly told her he was also aroused, but somehow she didn’t dare touch
him. Though he had yet to give her any orders, he had made it clear she had to obey
him if she wanted to reap the benefits of this strange arrangement.
Meanwhile, an odd passivity had taken her over. He’d told her not
to think, but only to feel. Her rational self, the part that screamed warnings about
engaging in sexual trysts with total strangers, had retreated to some distant corner
of her mind, leaving only a hunger to be touched, a craving to be filled, a shameful
desire to be used and even abused.
“I know what you want, Gwen. What you truly need. I’ve read all your
stories of implacable masters and eager slaves. But you never go all the way in
your tales, do you? You don’t dare show the world the true depths of your depravity.”
His words inflamed her almost as much as his actions.
“I—oh!” He ripped open her fly and forced his hand down the front
of her jeans, under the elastic of her underwear, into her soaked and swollen cunt.
His fingers were like tongues of flame as they probed her cleft and teased her clit.
“Oh, please…I can’t bear it…”
As quickly as they’d arrived, his fingers were gone, leaving her
empty and aching. She gazed at him in a state of horny disbelief as he used a monogrammed
hankie from his breast pocket to clean her juices from his elegant hands. “I shall
decide what you must bear, my sweet little slave. Now I believe we’ve arrived at
your abode, where we can explore this question further. You should fix your clothing.”
