The Not-Valentine Valentine's Day by Carolyn Faulkner

Adored Book 1

Tessa Martin had moved back to a small town in New Hampshire to get away from the rat-race in Florida. That, and a couple relationships that just hadn't turned out the way she had hoped. After four years, her small town life, consisting of a few good friends and her surprisingly successful flower shop, was not particularly exciting, but it was very satisfying.

Then her apple cart (or flower cart, possibly) was completely upended by one Sean Maddox, a local mechanic who spotted Tessa at the local coffee shop. Unfortunately for Tessa, that's not the only place Sean has spotted her, and Tessa finds herself upended by Sean as well.

With Sean, Tessa finds that her long time fantasies are becoming reality. The problem with reality, however, is that it smarts - particularly when it's a large male hand reddening an upturned female behind. Does she really want that?

When Tessa comes to understand that with Sean, it's real - the submission, the spanking, all of it, she doesn't know if she can go through with what she thought she always wanted. Can Sean change her mind by Valentine's Day?

"Adored: The Not Valentine's Valentine's Day" is Carolyn Faulkner at her best!
