On her eighteenth birthday in April 1557, Rose Bingley is given a diary by her mother. In it, she records her feelings, thoughts and the great love she bears for her childhood sweetheart, Oliver Moore, whom she secretly plans to marry. When her uncle informs Rose that she is to wed the wealthy Lord Richard Coulby, she is horrified and heartbroken. Only when she discovers that her family name and fortune depend on it, does she agree to marry this stranger, who is twenty years her senior and has some very unusual views on how to conduct a marriage. In Norfolk, England, during the reign of 'Bloody Queen Mary', Rose embarks on her first few months of marriage and chronicles her story of love, longing, betrayal, danger and sexual awakening in this, her diary. This book is fiction, and is intended for adults only. It contains spanking and discipline as well as explicit sexual scenes and age-play elements.

Author
USA Today bestselling author Tabitha Black has been writing erotic spanking fiction for over a decade, mostly in the age-play and historical genres. More recently, she's discovered the joys of writing more contemporary, edgier books with a greater emphasis on BDSM – one of which, Sharing Silver, has been nominated for a Golden Flogger award and won the Spanking Romance Reviews award for best ménage 2015. Having lived in four countries on three different continents, and been an active participant in her local kinky communities, she likes to "write to discover what she knows". Her own personal kinks include anything and everything to do with spanking, fireplay, edge play, scarification, age-play, and too many more to count. Some girls like wood, some adore leather, but Tabitha is partial to big, shiny, ornate knives… nothing else makes her quite as weak at the knees. She lives in Europe with her Daddy/Sir, and a lilac cat who likes to sneeze in her face. She has a weakness for great cappuccino; strong, dominant, kind but brutally sadistic men (and counts herself amazingly lucky to have found one in real life); brilliant books, and tattoos. Tabitha loves getting mail, so if you want to drop her a line, please do so at tabitha_black@hotmail.com.
