Book Description

Sweet Discipline By Bonnie Hamre When Norris Brownell registers at an exclusive diet spa to further her career and salvage her social life, she expects the usual regimen of diet, exercise and behavior modification. However, Adrian, her personal trainer, knows that won't do. He's determined to train her to discipline her body and her impulses for more than portion control. He wants her for himself. She's initially appalled and resistant to his methods, but as her body slims and her sensual needs expand, she finds herself dealing with cravings that only Adrian can satisfy. Norris may lose much more than just pounds at the hand of her sensual trainer. Note: Sweet Discipline contains multiple scenes of discipline and is not for the faint of heart

Sexual-

In order for me to read any BDSM books, I have to have a good connection and feel something more then just sex between the two characters and I can’t read anything that’s degrading to the female. I was lucky this book did have the connection and I found it no way degrading. I did find myself being tested on reading some of sex scenes one in particular was risky to add, but I found it tolerable, some may not. At first I didn’t think I could read let alone finish it, but over all I found it a nice read. There quite a bit of anal, lots of sex toys, and discipline not for the faint of heart.

Norris want’s to lose weight, she had a friend that went to a spa called Sweet Discipline and was successful, so Norris wanted to give it a try. She never expected to have a male trainer let alone be naked with him, then to top it off she was able to have sex toys, that should be a no, no right?

Adrian seen Norris before she came in at Sweet Discipline and really liked her. Adrian is a dominate he decides he wants a challenge and Norris is his next client, he wants to train her as his submissive. Will it work? Will she lose weight and also in return be his submissive.

I found this one a very quick and easy read, so it doesn’t take up a lot of your time. The first half of the book there is really no sex, its Adrian training her to be his submissive, so that’s one downside. You don’t a lot of juice, until closer to the end of her stay at the spa

Interview with author Kathy Kulig, giveaway of Desert of the Damned

I happy to have with us today Kathy Kulig, erotic paranormal and contemporary author. Please give her a fangtastic welcome.

BbPR-Would you please tell us a little about yourself?

Kathy- Like most writers, I’m nuts about books, always have been. Even at a young age, I was a huge fan of Sci-fi, fantasy and ghost stories. Which is probably why I tend to write more paranormal. I later got hooked on romance and would read them by the shopping bag-full. I enjoy the outdoors and traveling. I’ve skied, hiked, gone on bike marathons, mountain biked and also worked as a dive master. Originally, I’m a Jersey girl, but I’ve lived in NY State, Colorado, Florida and now Pennsylvania. My writing career started out in newspapers and magazines. I have over three dozen articles published. More recently, I got into fiction and have three novels, two novellas and a number of short stories published.

BbPR-What type of books do you write?

Kathy- I write paranormal, contemporary and erotic romance for Ellora’s Cave. My stories have adventure, can be edgy and always have a happily ever after.

BbPR-Who are some of your favorite authors?

Kathy- I read a variety of books but to name a few: JR Ward, Sherrilyn Kenyon, Christine Feehan. I’m also a thriller fan: Barry Eisler and David Morrell.

BbPR-Which is easier to write male or female characters?

Kathy- I think they both have their challenges. I don’t know that one is harder than the other. Women and men think, talk and react differently and I have to remember that when writing them.

BbPR-What is your favorite paranormal creature?

Kathy- Oh, this is a fun question. I could say I haven’t made him up yet. I make up new ones with each book, many times based on folklore or myth with my own twist. In my Demons in Exile series, I’d have to say Dante is my favorite. He surprised me and became something I wasn’t expecting. And I had my series completely outlined. The events in the last two books changed him. In the final book, I have some extra surprises planned.

BbPR-For those who have never read your Damned and Desired eBook, can you tell them a little about it?

Kathy- Damned and Desired is Book 2 of the Demons in Exiled series from Ellora’s Cave. Here’s the blurb: She’s a demon, he’s a shapeshifting leopard. From their first meeting in the Arizona desert, passion ignites and trouble begins. As a demon, Sakari Lock must harvest lifeforce energy through sexual seductions to sustain her exiled world. But when Sakari meets Brad, she breaks the number one rule of Anartia—don’t get personal with your quarry.


Physician’s assistant Brad Montag is drawn to Sakari’s lustful advances with a blazing desire he can’t explain, unaware of how dangerous she is. No matter how enticing, she’s a complication he doesn’t need until he can conquer his past and regain control of his shapeshifting abilities. Sex this wicked and good can only lead to disaster.
When immortals from an alternate dimension try to free their exiled world, Brad is caught in the middle of a battle that could destroy not only him, but the land he loves.



BbPR-Desert of the Damned and Damned and Desired are related. Can these be read as stand alone or is there an order to read these? Do you plan on writing more?

Kathy- Damned and Desired is Book 2 of my Demons in Exile series. Book One is Desert of the Damned. Yes, the two books are stand alone and can be read out of order. I’m working on the third book in the series now. The title is not set yet.

BbPR-With all the social networking online now a day‘s, do you find it hard to keep up with it all and write too?

Kathy-I give a workshop on social networking. I can get carried away with Twitter, Facebook, blogging and the loops. They are a necessary evil to reach readers and network. The best think is to limit you time—set a timer if you have to. I do email and social networking until 7:30pm, then exit out and start writing. Otherwise, I’d never get any writing done since I work a day job. I also get up early on the weekends, sometimes as early at 4-4:30am.

BbPR-Can you give us a little on what you’re working on now?

Kathy- I have another erotic shapeshifting book that’s about completed and I’m working on the third in the Demons in Exile series.

BbPR-Anything else you would like to share?

Kathy- Laurie, Thank you so much for having me as a guest. If the readers would like to learn more or link up socially, please visit my website. On my Contact page are all my links to Facebook, Twitter, etc. I also blog most Wednesdays with the Danger Zone Authors.

Thank you so much Kathy!!

This book is smoking Hot! I couldn’t decide if I needed a shower or turn up the fan. I love it so much. I now have a new favorite erotic author. I have always be a sucker for M/F/M. I normally like them where the two males are already committed to this type of relationship this way you don’t go through the I don’t know if I can handle this type of lifestyle and on top of that they have to convince the girl to do it too. Sometime it just gets carried a way, If you read this type of books you know what I mean. This book is that type, so none of the males or female is into this lifestyle, so they all have to come to terms with it, either they stay together or separate, but the author keeps you interested, so it didn’t get boring or on my nerves.

I loved the tension that the author builds between all three characters and how thy handled everything. I also loved how the author takes you into there lives in such a short time you really get to know each of them, especially Brett he is the tortured one.

Few spoilers
Nicole (Nikki as you’ll see her called) had a ruff marriage and divorce. She is now living with her brother. She comes home from saving some horses and finds her livestock hasn’t been watered, her brother was gone, her hot friend Dillon from next door is there to help her. When she notices the lights aren’t on in her house she gets a bad felling. Dillon goes in the house first to check and find everything gone. I am not going in to who took the stuff it would be a bad spoiler sorry, you’ll have to find out yourself on that one;)

Dillon and Brett are step bro’s (you have to read to find out how they became bro. its not a typical situation you read all the time) and they both have had a thing for Nikki. When Dillon finds all of Nikki’s stuff gone from her house the first choice is she comes and stays with him. Now you know what happens here (woo wee, it gets turned up.) Nikki knows Brett has a thing for her, but he never acts on it. She asks him and he says no he doesn’t want her. This is were I would love to put a spoiler to say way he doesn’t want her, lets just say its really emotional. One day Brett cant take it anymore so now they want her to decide between them, but how can you chose one love over another and not be hurt.
