Hi,
Ya’all!
Thank
you so much for having me here today and allowing me to introduce
myself and the slightly ‘different’ path I take to writing.
From
my first publication in 2012 to now, I’ve put out over 55
titles—every one of them different, unique and with a special
purpose. What’s that? As a BDSM lifestyler, I want my readers to be
entertained but also trust they will get truth and reality of the
BDSM/Age-Play/Total Power and Erotic Exchange lifestyle in my books.
My hope is that they not only walk away entertained (and a little
horny), but also wanting more.
I
don’t think there’s a genre of erotica that I don’t enjoy
writing; hence, I’ve developed an extensive collection that ranges
from Historical Victorian to Science Fiction, Contemporary/Historical
Westerns, Humor, Post-Apocalyptic, Fantasy and everything in between.
My readers are smart (and a little sadistic) and don’t hesitate to
let me know EXACTLY what they want—and I do my best to make them
happy. My readers are everything to me and I strive to provide
something for everyone. I’ve also published non-fiction pieces that
share how I was introduced to the Age-Play lifestyle (The
General’s Little Angel and A Little Play Day). In the
spirit of paying it forward to my first Dom who not only blistered my
tail, but saved my life, the proceeds from The General’s Little
Angel have been donated to the National Coalition Against
Domestic Violence.
I’m
known best for my Age-Play books and my spanking/sex scenes. Each
book has different heat levels appropriate for the story and always
involve committed relationships, including those with multiple and/or
same sex partners, consensual (except in horror/post-apop where the
bad guy always gets his in the end—sometimes literally!), and have
a strong story line that keeps the reader engaged and invested in the
characters.
Warning—most
of my readers say that they cry at the end and then spend the rest of
the day looking like clowns because they can’t stop smiling.
The
particular book I am highlighting today, Calliope’s Little
Conquest, is the first of the Saddlesore Ranch series. It also
holds a special part in my heart because of its origin. In my
‘vanilla’ life, I work as a pediatric hospice nurse and a
pro-bono Veteran’s Administration therapist for those involved in
alternative lifestyles. As a result, many of my characters and
stories are inspired by my clients and their situations. About a year
ago, I was working with a single HIV+ mom who was dealing with
extensive custody issues because of her disease. She introduced me to
Hope for Tomorrow, a recovery center in Illinois who had helped her
and so many others and asked me to write a book that would share the
struggle that she endured.
So,
I did.
All
my books have HEA, regardless of the underlying theme. Finding the
HEA in this one, however, was a struggle. It wasn’t until I
attended her funeral earlier this year that I knew what was needed. I
watched the love and support that the members of the LGBT community
gave to her sister and four-year old son. They held nothing back in
showing their love. They stepped in to repair her house, donated
legal assistance, bought groceries, and became aunts and uncles to
the little boy. I’ve also never seen so many Build-A-Bears in my
life!
Calliope
needed a village to help her come to terms with the things in her
life. Having a Daddy Dom gave her the love and confidence she needed
to push forward, but the extended family that consisted of characters
from many of my previous contemporary BDSM books, gave her the
strength of hope.
The
first month’s proceeds from Calliope’s Little Conquest will be
donated to Hope for Tomorrow. This charity operates safe, nurturing facilities for adults suffering from psychological and/or substance abuse issues. I will also donate fifty cents from the
ongoing sales for every comment/review the readers leave on the
purchase venues, this post, twitter, or other social media. Just
point it out to me! Words have power—and this type of power can
give a little boy or girl some hope for tomorrow.
With
all of this, we come to the question:
What's
a Daddy-Dom to do when he discovers that his little girl has been
keeping a dirty little secret?
In
Calliope’s Little Conquest,
Calliope
Wharton has made a lot of mistakes in her life, including running
away from home. She comes face-to-face with a life-changing
consequence and is forced to return to her family in the little town
of Bandara, Texas and gears herself to face conflict and judgment for
her actions. She is shocked to find not only love and acceptance, but
an unwanted romance that involves a close family friend, Tanner
Perkins.
Tanner,
the owner of the new Saddlesore Ranch and BDSM resort, has a gift. He
can sense a submissive heart from a mile away. So, when Callie
suddenly appears after a three-year absence, he is immediately on the
alert. Whether she likes it or not, he sets his mind on helping the
wayward girl make some necessary changes in her life.
Tanner
not only trains horses and their riders, but he also knows how to
tame a wild filly, and the lesson often starts with a trip over his
knee. What he didn't expect was Callie bringing out his 'Daddy Dom'.
He introduces her to the nurturing love of the age-play dynamic and
teaches her how to laugh and play once again. Little by little, he
woos Callie into 'tasting' the delicacies of his lifestyle and a
place of healing.
Although
aware of the relationship Callie had shared with a man of her past,
Tanner is ill-prepared when that same man appears at their door and
exposes a secret that the girl had shared with no-one. Caught between
her new-found love for Daddy Tanner and her obligation to the man who
saved her life, Callie is at a crossroads. Does she embrace this new
lifestyle and risk the loss of the one person she has loved more than
life itself?
Her
quandary increases when she meets several of Tanner's old friends,
including Dorian and Meredith Graye (The WhipMaster), and Layton,
Caine and May Marshall (Two Guardians for Little May/Dr. Daddy Dom).
These, and many others who live the BDSM dynamic, come together and
show Callie that it takes a loving and formidable army, and a
strong-willed Daddy Dom, to raise a Little Girl.
This
standalone is the first the Saddlesore Ranch series and includes
spanking of adult women and explicit adult sexual encounters.
Excerpt
Tanner’s
confession to cheating meant that the game was on. To keep things
fair, they both kept a record of the number of strokes to get the
ball in the hole, but other than that, all rules went out the window.
She caught him with several green balls stuffed into his front
pockets that he innocently insisted were ‘anatomical.’ Snorting,
Callie wrestled one out of his pants and, in the process, encouraged
the emergence of his true anatomy! Reddening, she pulled her hand out
of his pocket and turned away as he adjusted himself.
“You
act like you’ve never been around men before. These things are
unavoidable when a pretty girl gets too close and starts feeling
around. It’s not your fault you woke him up.”
“Stop
gloating and tell that thing to go back to sleep. I’m here to play
with these balls and these alone.” She held up a yellow golf ball.
“Where
did you get that? Your color is pink.”
She
quickly pulled a pink ball out of her bra. “It is pink. You’re
color blind.”
“You’re
bad.”
“Yeah,
and what are you going to do about it?” she asked saucily,
sauntering over to the hole and absently kicking his ball out of the
way.
Oh…
if only she knew when she asked that question!!!

About
Breanna Hayse
So
what makes me, well, me?
I’m
a native Californian gone 'wild', and had the opportunity to travel
the globe and discover the world through the eyes of both a Marine
Intelligence specialist and a BDSM lifestyler. I left the service to
go into hospice nursing and grief counseling, eventually working as a
marriage and family therapist for those involved in alternative
lifestyle development. This experience has allowed me to gain unique
inspiration for my books and provide realistic plots and relatable
characters.
In
2004, my husband, John, and I joined forces to work with both
submissives and dominants- teaching, training, listening and loving.
Our goal was to take the mystery and fear out of the lifestyle and
mentor people in safe, consensual and healthy relationships.
My
first book, The Game Plan, was published in 2012 and opened
the door to the now-booming world of Age-Play literature. Since that
time, I’ve devoted my ‘spare’ time to writing, researching,
community involvement, and private and group pro bono counseling in
deviant behavior, alternative lifestyle, and addiction recovery.
I
was formally ‘dungeon trained’ as a Domme before discovering my
submissive side when I joined the service. My scenarios are pulled
primarily from either personal experience or observation, including
spending time in clubs as the safety/medical officer. My
multi-faceted background allows me to glean from many avenues and
provides a unique and intelligent literary experience through
elements of fantasy and fiction. I also address the questions and
psychology of the lifestyle in a manner that is fun and informative,
and based on 'the real deal'.
I
live with my husband, musician, and fellow-author, John Hayse, and
two border collies in southern California. We practice a 24/7 D&S
relationship with speckles of AP (and many trips to Build-A-Bear),
and happily spend every moment together that we can. My hobbies
include my puppies, hiding my vanilla salt-water taffy where John
can't find it, exotic art, collecting inspirational trinkets, and
developing my own paddle line. You can also see me as a featured
author/instructor in professional conference settings and as a
Sexpert for kinkyliterature.com.
