In the years since the rich and powerful abandoned their planet, society on Earth has all but disintegrated. But there is one thing that those who left Earth behind still need from their old home, and in return for sustenance and protection the remaining humans of Earth have offered their women as mates to those who wish to claim them. Despite her best efforts to avoid her fate—efforts which only earn her a hard, bare-bottom spanking—when the time for her inspection arrives eighteen-year-old Gretchen soon finds herself stripped naked for a humiliating, intimate examination in front of an audience intent on evaluating her as a potential mate. Martin Lourcy was attracted to Gretchen from the moment he set eyes on the beautiful young woman, but it is her body's helpless arousal during her examination which convinces him that he must have her. But Martin wants Gretchen not only as his mate, but as his something more, something his society no longer allows a man to have. He wants her as his wife. After buying the right to take Gretchen home with him, Martin marries her in secret, but soon he is faced with an unexpected dilemma. Though he is wildly in love with his new bride, his position affords him the power to use her in any way he desires and his lust for her pushes him to dominate her ever more harshly. Yet when he strives to treat her gently, she rebels, and he is forced to wonder if everything his society taught him was wrong. Could Gretchen truly not only want, but need her husband to master her and take her as hard and as often as he sees fit?

Author

Emily Tilton, whose books have hit number one on Amazon in six different erotica categories, wishes she could live out her fantasies of submission the way her characters do. Emily's erotica is a narrative version of her nearly lifelong quest to reconcile her submissive erotic orientation with her ethics. She writes erotic romance, but her books are always frankly and unashamedly about sex, because writing about sex helps her understand that fundamental part of her life better. She hopes maybe it does the same for her readers. Over the many years since Emily became aware of her sometimes unbearable craving for spanking, ravishment, and all the shameful things that go with it, she has tried to come to terms with that craving in more ways than she can count. The first of the ways was by reading, voraciously, every piece of BDSM erotica she could find. Eventually, she read "Story of O." As is reflected throughout her work, it changed her life, though the change has been gradual, and continues to this day. The idea that other women might share the lusts she has by turns been ashamed of and defiantly proud of, that a woman like the real Pauline Réage might write so beautifully of those lusts, and work them out so thoroughly and even pitilessly on a character, put Réage's famous pencil in her right hand. Or, to put it in the terms of EXPLORATIONS, which she considers her magnum opus, it put her left hand on the keyboard of her laptop and her right hand in her lap, if you know what she means. Emily started to write spanking stories.
