(More customer reviews)I found Blushing Cheeks Volume One to be somewhat of a disappointment. I expected an interesting and stimulating read in the genre that was described in the blurb, but found a very bland and nearly PG-13 rated collection of three stories that were supposedly written by three different authors. The stories were so similar in the portrayal of the heroines that I had to check to see if they were actually credited to different authors. I found the heroines' submissiveness to be a bit unbelievable. The joint theme in all three stories is spanking and I found it hard to believe that these women would just allow the males in these stories to turn them over their knees and spank them as a matter of course. I allow that I am no expert in that particular area of experience, but I have read other stories involving spanking and mild BDSM that had much better premises. I guess the over all feeling I got from these stories was that the heroines had no backbone and expected to be spanked and believed they deserved it and that the males had a right to teach them lessons and decide if their behavior was appropriate or not. I think I will look for other authors in this genre that take a different approach to this concept.

Do you want to know if he can REALLY tame that brat? You're in the right place. "The Good Man" by Carolyn Faulkner: Life in “The County" hadn't changed much in decades, and Emily Robertson wanted much more out of her own life - despite the fact that that meant leaving Daniel, the man her heart so desperately wanted. But when she ended up back in the same small town they'd grown up in, Daniel takes complete advantage of an enforced encounter to lure her back into his arms - and he wasn't going to let her go again, for any reason! Does a throbbing bum makes settling down a lot easier for a wanna-be city mouse? Emily's about to find out."Cade" by Paige Tyler: The beautiful, but irritating Riley Barnett has been a thorn in the side of the U.S. Marshals Service ever since she entered the Witness Protection Program. And now that she once again believes her identity has been compromised, new U.S. Marshal Cade Cutler is the one sent to placate her. But the simple task of babysitting her is made more difficult when she refuses to obey his simplest instructions. Cade has never met a woman so infuriating, and soon realizes that the only way to get through to her is to put her over his knee for a good, sound spanking. Riley, though, will be damned if she's going to take orders from the gorgeous Marshal just because he spanks her, especially when he refuses to believe that she's actually in danger. She has been in the Witness Protection Program long enough to know when someone is after her, even if all of the other times had been false alarms. But when it turns out that she's right this time, Riley has to depend on Cade to protect her, even if that means putting up with his spankings every time she refuses to follow his silly rules!"Her Personal Trainer" by Starla Kaye: Elizabeth Wingate receives an invitation to a cruise that will be her high school reunion. She remembers all the rejection she`d felt from her classmates, how she`d been teased hurtfully too many times. Inwardly she still felt like that woman no one could seem to love. She absolutely should not go on this stupid cruise. But she wanted to, she needed to. She needed some help first, though. Someone to help her whip her slightly out-of-shape body into bikini shape. So when her business partner suggests a personal trainer, that seems the perfect answer -- except for all of that horrible exercise stuff.Chase Sawyer owes Elizabeth`s mother a favor and agrees to escort her to a gala since he will be in Kansas City for a few weeks anyway. He`s never gone on a blind date and detests the idea. Arriving in town early, he decides to go meet the young woman he`s positive he won`t be attracted to, only to discover how strongly he is drawn to her. When she mistakes him for a personal trainer, he latches on to that opportunity to get to know her better. And as he does, he realizes the little spitfire, who isn't always cooperative about exercising and who needs an occasional bottom warming to get her back on track, might finally be the woman to make him settle down.
