A Country Music Christmas
By Maggie Carpenter
BLURB
LIES AND LOVE. AN AMBITIOUS SINGER. A COWBOY MUSIC ICON.
Cowboy and legendary record producer Liam Taylor is furious. Though a Nashville celebrity, he lives by his cowboy roots and old-fashioned values. He’s just learned the young woman he hired as an assistant several weeks before is an aspiring singer who manipulated her way into his home. He believed they were becoming close, which makes her deception even more egregious.
Blonde-haired, blue-eyed Summer Brown has never felt her heart pump so fast nor her face burn so hot. Liam has uncovered her lie. She may have arrived on his doorstep wanting to be the next Taylor Swift, and she still does, but she's crazy about him.
Believing she's made a fool of him he deftly bends her over his knee, lands a flurry of hard swats and sends her packing, but a short time later a fierce snowstorm sweeps down the mountain. They suddenly find themselves catapulted together in perilous conditions fighting for survival.
He must bury his anger to battle through the treacherous blizzard, but if they make it out alive will her impassioned declaration of love be enough to win his forgiveness and find a way into his arms...?

She froze.
Please, dear
God. No!
Sharply
pulling her phone from her ear she held her breath. What the hell could she
say?
“Summer? Summer are you there?”
Her thumb
automatically slipped over the OFF icon ending the call, and dropping the phone
on the table, with her heart sinking, she turned around. Liam was moving slowly
towards her. A dark frown was crossing his face, his milk chocolate brown eyes
were narrowing, and his full lips were grimly pressed together. How could she
explain herself? She was screwed. Absolutely, one-thousand percent screwed.
“I-uh—“
“Don’t even try,” he growled, “I’ve heard
enough. When you came knockin’ on my door
lookin’ for a job you were here for one reason and one reason
only, a record deal. I asked you about that point blank, and you lied to me.
You lied to my face.”
Summer had
never felt her heart pump so fast, nor her face burn so hot.
“And what about all those cozy talks we’ve been havin’,” he demanded, drawing ever closer, “and the flirtin’ in your
painted-on jeans? Damn, all this time you’ve been playin’ me. Totally
playin’ me.”
She could hear
the hurt in his voice. It was killing her. She may have arrived on his doorstep
wanting to be the next Taylor Swift, and she still did, but in the three months
she’d been there
she had fallen for him, hook, line and sinker, as her dad would say. She was
positively drowning in her feelings for him, but he’d never
believe her now, not in a million years.
He’d stopped
directly in front of her. His cologne was tickling her nostrils. She loved that
smell. A few weeks earlier she’d sneaked home one of his T-shirts, and each night,
holding it tightly, she’d crawl into
bed, close her eyes, and inhaling the spicy, musky fragrance, she would dance
her fingers against her sex.
Suddenly it
happened. The glorious unthinkable, and it abruptly chased away all thought.
Without
warning his fingers were tangled in her hair, he was tugging back her head, and
his lips were devouring her mouth. She couldn’t breathe,
her stomach was alive with a thousand butterflies, and her heart was
somersaulting against her chest, but he brusquely broke away, and with a life
of its own her hand flew from her side and slapped him.

Don’t you think
you deserve a spankin’ for connivin’ the whole
time you’ve been here.
That’s not cool,
sugar. Besides that, if we’re gonna move forward you’ve gotta get
rid of all the guilt you’re feelin’, and don’t deny it, it’s written all over your bright red cheeks.”
“I
can’t stand this,” she mumbled raising her hands and covering her face. “I
can’t. It’s so difficult.”
“Hey, it’s good you’re embarrassed, you should be. It shows you’ve got a
conscience.”
“I guess, but you’ve already spanked me. What was that about if it wasn’t for lying
to you?”
“That was for the slap!”
“Shit.”
“This is how I roll, Summer. You’ve gotta know
I don’t take kindly
to someone tryin’ to pull the wool over my eyes. I’m not gonna
let it go unpunished.”
“This is crazy!” she declared,
finally dropping her hands and staring at him.
“Nope. You wanna know what’s crazy? It’s obvious
no-one has ever called you on your crap.”
“I don’t know what you mean?”
“Tell me if this sounds familiar. You do somethin’ you shouldn’t, and when your fella gets mad you roll your big blue
eyes at him, press up against him and beg his forgiveness. You have great
make-up sex and things go back to normal, but for some reason you find it all
just a bit frustratin’. How am I
doin’? Is that
about how things usually go with you?”
Summer was
speechless. Everything about Liam Taylor was confounding.
What he’d just said
was true, but how could he possibly know that? And how could he be so warm and
yet so—what? Strict?
Was that the word? Strong? No, it was more than strong. His kiss had made her
knees weak and her stomach flip, and when she’d slapped him
he hadn’t gotten mad,
or walked away, or any of the other reactions she’d expected.
What he’d done was
absolutely unbelievable. He’d spanked her, and he’d done it
quickly and calmly, and now he was threatening to do it again. No. He wasn’t threatening,
he was telling her. He’d made it
crystal clear if she wanted to spend time with him, personal, special time, he’d wallop her
butt as the starting point.

Too many
times he’d felt the
insincerity of a woman pretending to be turned on when she wasn’t. He knew
his wealth and celebrity were a magnet, but Summer had lied her way into his
house not because of him per se, but because she wanted to be a singer. It was
an interesting twist that she was now sitting before him naked and blindfolded,
and proving to be wonderfully submissive.
“I’m going to
lay you on the floor,” he murmured, traveling his lips across her neck and
fondling her breasts with both hands, “and you’re gonna spread your legs and play with yourself, but
you’re not
allowed to come.”
“Can’t we sit here
for just a minute longer?” she whimpered, lost in his massaging palms and his
wonderfully warm moist lips on her skin.
“You can, but
I’m steppin’ away for a moment.”
“No,” she said, grabbing one of his wrists. “I refuse to
let you go.”
“Is that
right?”
“Yes, that’s right!”
“You’re’ bein’ naughty, you know that too, right?”
“Maybe, but—OUCH.”
His finger’s had
suddenly, sharply, pinched a nipple.
“That should
keep you company for the few seconds I’ll be gone.”
“Ow, ow. Was
that really necessary?”
“Yep, and you
are really pushing your luck,” he scolded, though wearing a grin she couldn’t see. “Just stay
there, and no more back-talk.”
She loved the
darkness of her blindfold, and as she felt him rise off the couch and move away
she rubbed the soreness from her breast. Why had he left again? What other
salacious surprises did he have in store? She strained to listen. He was close
by, and though she could hear him she couldn’t figure out what he was doing.
“On to your
hands and knees and crawl forward,” he ordered. “You’ll feel a
rug.”
It was
surreal, moving across the floor blindfolded and naked, but she loved it, and
when she felt the fur under her hands she couldn’t wait to lay in its warm softness.
“You sure look
good on all fours,” he murmured his lips suddenly at her ear, “especially
with that gorgeous backside still so lovely and pink. You know I’m gonna be
spankin’ you more often than not.”
“You are, Sir?
Why?”
“I have a
sayin’; a spankin’ a day keeps the brat away. You might wanna remember
that. Time to lie on your back.”
Her butterflies
wildly fluttering, she dropped down and rolled over, and sending her hand
against her sex she sought out her clit and began her salacious massage.
“That’s a mighty
nice picture,” he crooned. “Leg’s wider, that’s better.
Imagine you’re in your
bed with my T-shirt.”
Her surprised
gasp made him chuckle, but when he glanced down at her hand nestled against her
sex he shook his head; she’d stopped
rubbing.
“OOWW, SIR!” she wailed as a sharp slap suddenly landed on the
inside of her each of her thighs.
“I didn’t give you
permission to hit the pause button,” he scolded. “Disobedience
has consequences.”
“Sorry, I was
just so shocked that you knew about me taking your T-shirt.”
“I was real
pleased that you did. It told me how you were feelin’ about me, but right now you’d better
start playin’ with yourself again. Like I said, do it just the way
you do when you’re alone and
thinkin’ about me. Is the shirt usually layin’ next to you.”
