Heart Song Anthology by Carolyn Faulkner (e reader pdf best TXT) 📕

box. He picked her up and twirled her around, oblivious to her protestations that she was too bedraggled and tired and sweaty to be touched. He tsked at her like he sometimes did while he was punishing her. “Of course, you’re not.” Sean dropped a loudly smacking kiss on her cheek. “Ready to go?”

“No, I still have to–”

“No, you don’t,” Pam interrupted from behind her, startling Tess. “I’ll finish closing up. You go have fun with Sean. Go on.” She shooed with her hands. “You deserve some time off. I’ll handle the shop for a couple of days. You just have a good time.”

With the two of them conspiring against her, Tess gave in, thoroughly enjoying being whisked away a night early.

Several hours later, exiting the limo, she found herself at Foxwoods. Sean had arranged everything perfectly, down to packing her clothes. The next evening, after one of the best steak dinners ever, she found herself on a cloud in the middle of a swanky restaurant, wearing an enormous diamond engagement ring, toasting the man she loved.

Who needed Valentine’s Day, anyway? She’d take the day after from now on.

The End.

Carolyn Faulkner

The words “spanking” and “discipline” have always sent a shiver up Carolyn Faulkner's spine. She knows she's not alone.

Writing started as a way to explore her feelings. Soon short stories flowed from her pen featuring reluctant heroes taking the leading lady in hand, but always for her own good.

Today Carolyn is the author of dozens of books. She writes from her home in Maine, where she lives with her husband and leading man.

The Valentine’s Visitor

Carla

Carla Danvers was ready for work. Her pale gray hotel uniform was spotless and pressed as usual, but today she’d added a red porcelain heart pin in honor of Valentine’s weekend. She checked herself one more time in the standing mirror. Hands on her hips, she looked with a critical eye. Tanned skin paid homage to the hours she spent on the golf course. Her dirty blonde hair was cropped short in a pixie cut, as easy to care for as when she’d been a little girl. Now, however, her mop was streaked with gray.

As was her custom, Carla wore no makeup, what she laughingly called “oh naturale.” The only jewelry she tolerated was her watch, her wedding ring, and the little gold hoops her mother had given her when she married Doug. She was low-maintenance, her husband Doug said. Maybe things would be different between us if I was not quite so easy to live with. She sighed and spun on her heel, smoothly the fabric of her skirt over her bottom. Not bad for an old broad.

Carla had worked at the Royal Poinciana Hotel for years, working her way from housekeeping just out of high school, to desk clerk, and now to one of the managers. She loved the old hotel and took pride in the fact that she could play a role in preserving local history while she provided superior service to hundreds of hotel guests each year.

As she tidied up the bed she shared with her husband Doug, she considered the importance of discretion in the hotel business. Housekeepers can tell quite a bit about a couple’s relationship when they “do” a room during their stay, or after they leave. There are subtle clues, like where the pillows end up, the neatness of the sheets, the condom wrappers in the trash can. Hotel employees are trained to keep opinions and observations to themselves, of course, but housekeepers tend to develop keen detective skills along the way, if they’ve a mind
