Good Manors is the
latest offering from the Queen of Smut, Victoria Blisse. Part of the ‘What’s
Her Secret Series’ of books from Totally Bound, this is a novel with twists,
turns, secrets and steaming hot erotic encounters.
Set in an English country Manor, Victoria’s
novel has a uniquely British feel and gives a glimpse behind the scenes of the
aristocracy including its seedier side. Told from the point of view of both of
the main characters, you see through the eyes of both the secret keeper and the
one kept in the dark.
Here's the official word about the book ~
Mallard Hall plays host to games of
submission and Dominance for one unique couple, but do the secrets of the past
threaten the new bonds being forged?
India Grace, a respected journalist, is
assigned to the estate for a behind the scenes look at how it runs. It is the
last place in the world she wants to be. Back when she was young and naïve she
took a photo of old Lord Mallard, which led to her success and his downfall.
She carries the guilt with her to the location and it’s constantly in the back
of her mind when she meets the hall’s latest owner, Xander Patrick.
Xander’s father died when he was only
thirteen, and he doesn’t hold many good memories of him. He helped his mum
build Mallard Hall back up, and since her death struggles to keep it going
single-handedly. The last thing he needs is a meddling journalist poking into
estate business, especially when the meagre profits are mysteriously
disappearing.
The two try to keep their distance but
find themselves drawn together in many unexpected ways. A meal leads to an
investigation of secret passageways and from that India and Xander explore
their attraction, using different rooms of the hall for their kinky games.
In the end India’s secret will have to
come out, but will it bring the couple closer together or tear them apart?
Reader Advisory: This book contains
scenes of light BDSM and voyeurism.

And now for an excerpt!! (Did I mention it's hot? Sure is!! Woop!!)
“Sorry, Sir.” She dipped her head. “But you
knew about the passages, right? Why didn’t you use those?”
I shook my head and loosened my tie.
“If you’d shut up I’d tell you. But no, you
keep gabbling on. I think you’re doing it on purpose, naughty girl.”
“No,” she insisted. “No, Sir, I’m not.”
“Well, you won’t do it anymore.” I unlooped
my tie and pressed it against her cheek. “I’m going to gag you so I can finish
my story. If at any point you get uncomfortable with what’s happening raise
your hand and I’ll untie you. Okay?”
“Yes, Sir.” She nodded.
I gave her a couple of moments more, just
in case she wanted to use her safe word, but when she stayed silent, I wrapped
my royal blue tie around her mouth and knotted it at the back securely. I ran a
finger down the back to check it wasn’t too tight then cupped her face in my
hands and dropped a kiss delicately in the middle of her forehead.
“Right, maybe now I can actually finish my
story in peace.” I kissed her cheek right above the line of the tie.
“So, as I was about to say, I didn’t want
to reveal the passageways to her because she might pass that information on, to
Mum, to outsiders. I didn’t want that at all. So I searched the house and
believe me, that’s no small feat. Finally, I found the attic, with the same
warning sign that hangs on the stairs now.
“I cautiously ignored it, pushed on and
discovered this. It was the perfect place to bring Ariana. It was here I
discovered she had kinks. I mean, I was a naïve virgin…”
She snapped her head round to look at me.
“Yes, virgin. Anyway, I was just eager to
fuck to be truthful and she was incredibly patient with me. I set up dozens of
candles in here that first night. I thought it was romantic and you know, it
looked spectacular. I didn’t have a clue what I was doing, but she did. After
we fucked—I’m not afraid to say it was a short and fairly straightforward
experience—she asked me to pour hot candle wax over her breasts. I didn’t know
much, I thought it was weird, but if the lady who’d just happily taken my
virginity wanted me to drip hot wax all over her then I was going to do it.”
India made a noise, muffled by the tie,
which I’m sure was an indication of arousal.
“She went crazy, bucking under the stream.
I was fascinated how it went from liquid to solid on her skin. She had me pick
the cooled wax from her skin as I fucked her—that was an interesting balancing
act. I loved the red marks that lingered, my marks left on her, physical
evidence of what we’d done. I realized then—the very first time I had sex—that
it was better with a bit of kink. I also found out that Ariana was submissive.
She taught me all I know.
“So I like to come up here and remember.
Remember all the good times. Mum sacked her when she found out we were—well, I
can’t say dating, we never went on a date—fucking. I never saw her again.” I
looked away from India at that moment, I
knew there’d be sympathy in her eyes. I
looked back to check on her once I was convinced I wouldn’t see it.
“So I keep some souvenirs of the old days
up here.” I reached over behind the pile of pillows and pulled out a coiled-up
length of rope, a candle and a flogger and placed them on the blanket before
India. “Would you like to play?”
India nodded.
“Good.” I reached back again and after a
little rummaging pulled out a box of matches and lit the chunky cream candle
before me. “If at any point you’re not happy with what’s happening shake your
head. I will stop the moment I see that sign. That will be your non-vocal safe
word. If you understand and you’re happy with that, nod now.”
India nodded eagerly.
“Wonderful. Okay, stand up.”
India stood, and I helped her kick off her
shoes, then undid her top and pulled it away from her. I let her keep her skirt
for the time being. I stroked over her shoulders and down her arms. I looked
her in the eye and I saw a world of desire painted in her gaze.
“Come with me.” I held her hand and walked
her toward my favorite beam. It was the kind of beam developers hate. A little
above waist height, it made walking through the middle of the room a pain. But
I loved its old, weathered wood and the height was perfect for what I wanted to
do.
I escorted India over to the beam and lay
her arm flat along it.
“Keep it there,” I said and walked round
her to smooth the other arm flat. I stood back and flipped up her skirt. It was
a beautiful sight—India bent forward, arse presented to me. “Don’t move.”
Hurrying across the floorboards, I picked
up the rope and flogger in one hand and the candle in the other. I settled the
candle just beyond her reach at the left hand side of the beam, then unwrapped
the bundle of rope until I had enough to encompass her wrist. She twisted her
head to watch as I tied then coiled the rope once, twice, three times around her
wrist and the beam.
“Now, I could loop this over your neck and
hold that down too but since you’re gagged I won’t do that.” I just ran the
rope underneath her and to the other arm.
She shifted and looked at me again as I
wound the other wrist to the beam.
“Is that okay?” I asked, very much aware of
how vulnerable she was and both turned on and grateful for her submission.
India nodded, narrowly avoiding hitting the
beam with her chin.
“Good, if it gets too much just shake your
head, don’t stop shaking it. If I see that I will stop immediately,
understand?”
She nodded, and I stroked down from the top
of her head, through her long luscious hair onto her back and over her
buttocks. The subdued moan she made intensified a moment later when I rubbed
down between her buttocks and cupped her pussy in my hand.
“Wet already.” I tutted. “I’ve barely
touched you yet.”
