In
an awkward show of bravado, she crossed her arms over her chest. “We need to
talk.”
“Yes,
after you calm down.”
Her
arms fell to her sides and her chin rose. “What do you mean after I calm down?
I have every right to be angry.”
“Maybe
or maybe you’re just being irrational.”
“Irrational?”
she squeaked, her anger rising even more. “Where the hell do you get off?”
Jonathon
narrowed his eyes. “We’re not having this discussion if you’re going to yell.
Now come here.”
She
curled her lip throwing caution to the wind. “No.”
His
eyebrow rose and some of her bravery fled so fast she felt herself deflate.
“Excuse me?” he asked.
She
drew in a deep breath. “I said no.”
He
took two steps toward her, and she took one back. Her first instinct was to
bolt, but instead, she stood her ground. She knew Jonathon wouldn’t really hurt
her. Spank her maybe, but he wasn’t abusive.
Jonathon
reached her side and without a word grabbed her arm. When he began tugging her
into the room, she dug in her heels. “Jonathon, stop it! I’m not going to let
you spank me again!”
He
grabbed something red off the table and turned to face her so quick, she almost
lost her balance as she came to a stop. Before she could even get out a reply,
he placed the red hankercheif between her lips, effectively cutting off her
ability to speak.
He
wrapped the edges around her face and tied them at the back of her head. Ashley
lifted her hands to undo the knot, but Jonathon caught them and jerked them
back down.
Her
entire body shook with both fear and desire. How could he do this and she
respond this way? What was wrong with her?
Without
another word, he pulled her toward the cross. Ashley tried to break free, but
he was too strong for her. He held both her wrists easily with one hand.
She
growled low in her throat as he pushed her back against the cross and lifted
her hands over her head. He stared down at her as though thinking for a couple
of seconds, then spoke. “You can either stand here and curse me through the gag
and be punished for it, or you can accept the fact that, one way or another,
you will calm down. I don’t do screaming matches, Ashley. If you want to talk,
we’ll do it calmly and rationaly. You can be mad at me all you want, but will
not yell and scream. Are we clear?”
“Fuck
you,” she snarled through the gag.
Jonathon
snorted. “Fine. We do this the hard way.”

Do you have a release date on Dirty Dom? I can't wait to read it now that you have teased us with this excerpt.
I don't have an official release date yet, but I'm thinking sometime before Halloween.
Is this book an Amazon exclusive or will it be available at BN, Kobo, all romance etc.
For right now it's only available on Amazon.
