Some think it's old Hollywood taking dramatic license, but I have to believe there's truth in fiction. How else do you explain the 'rule of thumb' where it was lawful for a man to discipline his wife with a switch as long as it wasn't wider than his thumb?
In Hollywood, and spanking romance, we spin our tales to make these scenes dramatic, spicy, sexy and downright HOT. And it seems Jordan St. John is a master at this art.
How exciting that I have him visiting today! It isn’t often
I have a male guest on my blog, and lucky me, today, I have two. Bestselling author Jordan St. John and The
Colonel.
Maddie: Jordan, you earned yourself a
#1 ranking in Erotic Westerns with this sexy story, what made you decide to
write a western?
Jordan: I wrote a
Western because I love the period. I stumbled across the fact that in 1896
Idaho held a statewide referendum on woman’s suffrage and I saw a way to work
this historical event into what is otherwise a totally fictional novel. Also
the idea of a romance between an older couple appealed to me. It gave me a
chance to make my main protagonist a pater
familias figure in his household as well, which added another dimension.
Maddie: And the outlaw
gang? I was intrigued as it seemed like
a very modern theme to have human trafficking and drug dealing occurring in
this era. Where did you get that idea?
Jordan: The outlaw gang
is not very different from Butch Cassidy’s gang which operated in Wyoming
during this same time period. Ketchum is a real place. I go there every year.
Today we know it as Sun Valley.
Maddie: It’s amazing
what we learn on vacation and then incorporate into our stories later. I’m excited to see what hot snippet you
brought with you today. Shall we press
on?
Jordan: By all means, and
thanks for hosting me today, Maddie.
THE COLONEL’S WOMAN
By Jordan St. John
Blaine County, Idaho 1896. Emma Weston is a young widow trying
to make ends meet in the rough and ready western town of Ketchum. When she
opens her house up to take in boarders, her intention is that they all be young
ladies, but that intention is brushed aside the moment she meets Colonel Nathan
Bradford. A recently retired career army officer looking for a job as a deputy
sheriff, Colonel Bradford not only cuts a dashing figure, but Emma decides that
her young tenants could benefit from having an authoritative male on the
premises to keep them all safe and to enforce her boarding house rules.
The colonel’s disciplinary methods run to the old fashioned
variety, which leads to some red hot bottoms for the girls when trips to the woodshed
for lessons in proper behavior become necessary. When Emma realizes that she,
too, could benefit from the colonel’s brand of bare bottom spanking justice,
the unexpected happens – she begins to fall in love with the man. The feeling,
it turns out, is mutual as Nathan Bradford becomes more and more enamored of
the charms of the pretty widow.
However, even as love blooms, the livelihood of the town and
its citizens is threatened by a notorious outlaw clan that has moved into the
territory with the aim of total domination. Trafficking in gambling, opium and
human flesh, the clan is not above using the strap and the switch to impose its
will on its female victims. When Emma’s girls fall prey to the outlaws, it is
up to the colonel to take them on, and when Emma herself becomes a target, this
gang of outlaws learns what a veteran soldier can do with a deadly accurate
rifle and a steady hand.
Against the backdrop of an historical suffragette rally, the
gang now plans an outrageous crime. It will soon be high noon in Ketchum. So clear the streets,
hide the children and take cover. Colonel Nathan Bradford is coming for his
woman -- and hell is coming with him.
Here’s Jordan’s excerpt from The Colonel’s Woman:
“Tame me? Why, Nathan Bradford, whatever makes you think you
can tame me?” She said it with a sense of mock outrage. Secretly she was
thrilled. He had just told her he loved her. She didn’t care about anything
else.
“So,” she said, pulling away and sitting straight up. She
huffed her chest out and put her hands on her hips. “Just how do you propose to
tame me?”
Nathan understood when a challenge was being issued. He narrowed
his eyes. Remembering what she had told him about her desires, he countered: “I
imagine a well warmed bottom or two might do the trick.”
“You’re a cad and you wouldn’t dare!”
Now that was a challenge if there ever was one, he thought.
“That’s where you’re wrong, Mrs. Weston.” In a single smooth motion he took her
by the wrist and pulled her across his lap.
“Eeek!” she squealed, fluttering her arms about.
She thrust out her hands to stop her forward motion which
permitted Nate to toss her skirts up in back without interference. Underneath
she had on lacy drawers.
“You stop,” she said, squirming. “Stop it at once!”
Smack! Nate’s palm struck Emma’s shapely bottom in rapid
succession. They were light spanks, calculated to excite and tease. For Nate,
the feel of Emma’s satiny bottom, rippling sensuously as his hand spanked, was
enough to cause his manhood to rise.

AUTHOR'S BIO:
Jordan St. John, a/k/a Rollin Hand, has been writing erotic
spanking fiction since 1999. He writes what he likes to call the "uncommon
spanking story." The idea, he says, is to write stories within other
genres including mystery, western, sci-fi, historical drama and paranormal
thriller, while organically mixing spanking erotica into the plot line.
Rollin's writings thus cover a wide range of styles and story types. His
orientations are M/F, F/F, and F/M, sometimes mixed in the same story. He has
written to date over 120 stories, novellas, novels, articles and poems. Although
most of Rollin's works are short fiction and novellas, He has written several
longer works including "Secret Spanking Cult" a private eye-type
mystery, "The Menace from Mongo" a retro sci-fi adventure,
"LaForge" a supernatural thriller trilogy, "Pendragon's
Lash", a medieval period/ sci-fi blend, and a medieval adventure,
"The Princess and the Rogue" writing as Jordan St. John.
When he is not writing, he's attempting to hold down his day
job as an IP attorney, playing golf, downhill skiing or jamming on jazz guitar.
Rollin hails from the Pacific NW.
