Maggie's up first......
Amongst the roses was the most perfect blossom of all ...his Lilly.
Blurb:
Beauty
isn't perfection—it is the ability to see beyond the flaws.
Victorian
England is not kind to those born without privilege, and yet Lillian Lancaster
has made a home for herself and a scrawny feral cat. Lilly is happiest working
in the gardens, knowing she can never match their beauty. She is one of the
flower-girls on the streets selling the bouquets she makes with love for mere
pennies. When her very livelihood is threatened by what was intended as a
kindness, she assuages her conscience by crawling through the hedge and taking
only what she needs to survive. On the day her presence is threatened to be
discovered, she takes refuge in an oak tree and witnesses a scene that will
change her life.
The
moment Phillip Carrington sees Lilly hidden in the foliage, he is intrigued.
The moment he holds her, he is captivated. The moment she gives him her trust,
he knows he wants to spend the rest of his life convincing her that she is the
most beautiful bloom in the garden.
Will
his love be enough to teach this young woman that her past does not need to
keep her trapped in fear? Will learning what happens behind the etched-glass
doors of the special school run by Miss Eleanor Summers frighten her, or will
it let her see that what she perceives as flaws are actually to be viewed as
part of the beautiful soul that lives inside her? Will she place her trust in
Lord Carrington and, with the gift of her submission, allow him to lead her
away from the darkness?
Lilly
Blossoms is the third book in Maggie Ryan's bestselling Lessons in Submission
series and yet it can also be read as a stand alone.

Excerpt
He looked down when he felt her
head lift from his chest. "I'll try to explain but first I must ask you to
make me a promise."
"All right."
"No, don't agree so quickly.
What I'm about to share with you is to remain between the two of us. This is
the sort of promise that, if broken, would not only destroy the trust I have in
you, but might have the power to hurt others. People like Rachel and more that
you don't even know." He watched as her nose crinkled and without thought
moved his hand to pat against her backside. "And, little one, if that
promise is broken, I would find it necessary to turn you over my lap and give
you a lesson."
Her eyes widened, their green
growing a bit darker. "A very tangible lesson?"
"Yes. I assure you that by
the time I let you up, your little bottom would be burning and you'd find it
very uncomfortable to sit down." He waited, ready for her to jump up and
tell him to go to hell but praying that she would remain exactly where she was.
His heart filled when she nodded.
"I understand, and I promise
not to speak of anything we discuss. I swear it."
He patted her bottom again, not to
give her a warning, but because the feel of her soft globes against his palm
just felt right. "I believe you. Rachel is actually one of Miss Summers's
students."
"Why would she go to school?
I mean, yes, she does look very young but… well, when that man untied her
bloomers… um, I saw…" He adored the flush that suffused her cheeks and the
fact that she couldn't quite seem to get her words out.
"You are right. She is
actually a year older than you." He saw her disbelief and chuckled.
"Yes, I assure you she is. I attended her birthday party only a few months
ago. As I already told you, the man you saw is not her father, but is her
papa—again, by choice. Rachel, is also not my niece by blood, but one by
choice. The students here are all of legal age and are all here by choice. Some
have agreed to attend at the behest of their fiancé, or even a few attend
though they are already wed. And occasionally, a woman will find her way to
this school on her own, hoping to find the sort of man who is seeking the type
of woman they desire to be."
"What do they desire?"
"Submission." He paused
again, allowing her time to consider his answer, knowing it was a subject few
people ever even considered.
Author Bio:
#1 International and
award winning best selling author for Blushing Books. I write both contemporary erotica and
historical spanking romances. I enjoy
writing about characters that enjoy the provocative D/S lifestyle of today’s
times as well as taking a step back into the past to write stories that take
place in the Victorian era with age-play as a theme.
I live in the great Lone Star state with my
wonderful husband. I have always loved
reading. Growing up in a family with
four children, it was difficult finding a place to be alone. I was probably one of the squeakiest clean
girls on the planet as I would spend hours in the tub so I could read without
being bothered. It wasn’t long before I
began to make up my own endings to the books I was reading. From there, it just seemed natural to begin
writing my own stories.
I never try to restrict myself to any one genre
because there are just too many delicious possibilities out there and inside my
head. I admit to being somewhat of a
romantic though as my stories always must have a great deal of love, passion,
corporal discipline and, of course, great, mind-blowing sex. I want my readers to be able to see, hear,
feel and know the characters that I’m creating as well as I do when I bring
them to life and transfer their stories to paper. I want my women to be strong of character but
also strong enough to know that submission given in love and trust to your
partner does not make you weaker, it makes you far stronger. I want my men to be sexy, strong, demanding
alpha males who know how to take what they want while acknowledging it is a gift
they have been blessed with by the women that have chosen to submit to
them. I want there to be no doubt that
they truly would die for the other no matter how others might view their
relationship.

Excerpt:
“Well,
before, when you made me bend over. You touched me, then. And I liked it,” she
said, her voice low.
“Oh,
you did, did you?” His was rough, teasing, now.
“Would you like me to do that again?”
She nodded.
“What
if I didn’t stop with a touch, next time, Sofia? What if I spanked you, like
you expected? What if I teased you, tantalized you? Would you let me do that?”
“Yes,
I would.” She felt adrenaline surge.
“Before,
it was just a test,” he said. “From now forward it will be something else.
Something more.”
“I
want more,” she said, meeting his eyes.
“You
don’t know what you want yet,” he said, an enigmatic expression on his face. And like lightning,
he stood and pulled her into his chest. “But I’ll be very glad to help you
figure it out,” he growled into her ear, and then his lips were on her neck,
and Casey melted into his body with passion that arose in her from his voice,
his touch, his smell.
Thank you Alexis!
