Detective Rory O’Malley can handle criminals and his mischievous sisters, but Tess, the enigmatic woman who often sleeps on a moonlit park bench, throws him off balance.
His warnings about the danger she is in meet only defiance, and frustration pushes him into an impulsive choice: he draws her over his knee and spanks her, igniting a connection neither of them expected.
Bridget O’Malley is searching at the same time for a partner who matches her idea of romance.
Delbert Bertram Winston IV seems ideal, charmingly geeky in a three-piece suit and quirky accessories, and far too mild, she assumes, to dominate anyone or resort to spanking.
She is wrong, and both romances test how far love can go once control and surrender collide.
