Thank you everybody for last week's warm welcome. It's great to be among such talented writers, I feel very humbled.
Living the Dream is a story about a couple meeting and working through the trials and tribulations of a new relationship and David's strategy for resolving their differences.
When last we left The Devlins, David was warning Blair to calm down after he dropped the bomb he had invited people over for a New Year’s Day brunch. Blair went ballistic before he even had a chance to explain he planned on having the whole thing catered. She had forgotten her daughter Nora was in the back seat of the car and witness to her disrespect and foul language.
“I am sorry for
flying off the handle that way in front of Nora, I forgot she was in the back
seat.”
...“You do know you
are getting a spanking, don’t you? … Now go upstairs and meet me in the
bathroom. Maybe this little talk will make you think before you fly off the handle.”
...He told her he
was going to “soap her mouth” for her foul language and then he would spank
her.
He led her
to the bedroom and told her to sit down on the bed. He removed his belt and that is when Blair
started to cry. “Please, please
David. Not the belt.”

Yikes the belt! Great tid bit for us Sunny!
ReplyDeleteYikes, is right. Thanks Minelle
DeleteOh no, I'd take a thousand strappings over a mouth soaping any day! Poor Blair really is getting a baptism of fire. Great tease, I'd like to see what happens next
ReplyDeleteYou might be surprised what happens next, but I can't give all of it away here. It's in the book. lol
DeleteI'm still in sympathy with her over the unexpected guests. He deserves to be spanked for springing it on her.
ReplyDeleteYes, he probably does, but he thought he had everything in hand, in more ways than one.
DeleteGreat snippet Sunny. Poor Blair, mouth soaping and the belt! I have to agree with Cara too LoL
ReplyDeleteHugs,
Roz
Thanks Roz. Does it leave you wanting more?
DeleteI too sympathize with Blair and probably would have reacted the same way on such short notice. My heart goes out to her while she endures the soaping. It takes forever for that taste to go away.
ReplyDeleteI feel so sorry for her butt, but there's just something about David pulling his belt off... I like it!
Great snippet, PK!
I know I would have. The soaping stinks for sure but I'm with you. Just the whoosing sound of the betl coming out of the loops, does it for me.
DeleteAs soon as I hear belt, I'm in.. But I can see her POV! Ok, yes, he was having it catered but still… I'm waffling…belt…surprise party…belt..ok belt wins… :)
ReplyDeleteMe too. But she could have handled it better, I wouldn't have, but she could.
DeleteI'm sure that the anticipation of the belt will make her melt in the end.
ReplyDeleteI know, it's that anticipation that gets you every time. The event can actually be anticlimatic sometimes.
DeleteThe thought of mouth soaping makes my toes curl and then the anticipation of the belt on - that put it over the top. Great Snippet.
ReplyDeleteThanks PK. Tiny bubbles, yuk.
DeleteSoaping and the belt....oh boy!
ReplyDeleteDouble the pleasure, double the fun. lol
DeleteOh, the belt! That wasn't supposed to be my reaction, right? The soaping sucks though, poor Blair.
ReplyDeletePoor Blair indeed.
DeleteSounds like quite the little new year's surprise for her.
ReplyDeleteYou know what they say, what happens on New Year's is a precurser of the year to come.
DeleteSurprise, surprise.
She's in for it now... the belts coming off. Nice snippet
ReplyDeleteYes, the belt is on the bed in plain sight.
DeleteThanks.
I just want to say that this book is terrific, Sunny and I think you wrote it with me in mind!!!
ReplyDeleteIn fact, and I have my hand on my heart here, I have bookmarked some passaged to read out to Dan because I think they could be very helpful to him.
However, having at long last witnessed a belt - you can keep it! I'll take a bath brush any time!
Hugs
Ami
Ami, I think that's the best compliment ever.
DeleteI will keep the best and want nothing to do with the bathbrush. Definitely different strokes for different folks.
I feel sorry for her too about the guests, but I feel worse about the soap. YUCK! Can she just get the belt maybe? :)
ReplyDeleteThe answer is in the book, lol
DeleteThanks for stopping by.
a mouth soaping and the belt? wow. lovely snippet
ReplyDeleteThanks, yeah, tough huh.
DeleteUh oh, soap and the belt. Great snippet Sunny :)
ReplyDeleteThanks. Well, maybe yes, maybe no.
DeleteOh no!
ReplyDeleteA soaping, a belting, and last minute guests!
Great snippet!!!!
:)
He knows how to take care of her. lol
Delete"Not the belt": so well deployed!
ReplyDeleteThanks Emily for dropping by. Deployment, very interesting.
DeleteI'm with Tara-- belt over soap any day!!!
ReplyDeleteYou and me both!!!
DeleteOh no not the belt!
ReplyDeleteThat's what she said, what does she know?
ReplyDeleteYum. A lot of pop in a few short sentences! I love the helplessness of the sorry and soon-to-be-sorrier Blair; the masterful, matter-of-fact peremptoriness of David. And I want to read more.
ReplyDeleteSo I will! :)
Thanks for stopping by and the support. Glad you enjoyed.
