Today, we return to Waldorf Manor for part II of our series with Bella Bryce. Although not quite G rated, Bella specializes in clean age play and domestic discipline, because good girls sometimes need to be spanked, too.
Sorry Betty Boop, this means you, honey.
The Waldorf Manor Series Continues with The Shortlist:
Ten months
after ‘’The Solicitation’’ and Alice’s transition to Waldorf Manor, her uncle -
Bennett Fowler - hopes to secure the companionship of a girl under his own
authority at his nearby estate, Barton-Court House. Alice is neither amused nor
welcoming to Bennett’s new charge and it doesn’t take long for her to display
adamant displeasure, feeling the newcomer is a threat to the carefully
constructed life which has been built around her at Waldorf and in their
circle. Completely against his beliefs and expectations, Bennett discovers
feelings for his new charge will complicate their arrangement. He refuses to
deviate from their strictly platonic relationship and his original intentions to
be her disciplinarian . . . until he can't.
"The Shortlist" is the beginning of a rather unlikely romance and you'll see a side of Bennett Fowler you didn't know existed if you read "The Solicitation!"

Enjoy an excerpt from The Shortlist:
“Mr. Fowler, good morning,” a man on reception said, glancing from Bennett to the
girl standing demurely beside him.
“Good morning.
I’m afraid I don’t have an appointment, but I wondered if Steffan was
available,” Bennett said.
“My best customer doesn’t need an appointment,” Steffan said, emerging from an inconspicuous door as he
approached them.
“It’s actually for Elisabeth,” Bennett started.
As soon
as Bennett said the girl’s name, Steffan leaned forward and tipped her chin
downward with his thumb and forefinger so as to get a closer look at the girl's
roots. He clicked his tongue
disapprovingly as he observed.
“Oh dear,” he said, and pulled Elisabeth’s chin back upward so that she was looking at him. “Come and sit down,” Steffan said, and lead the way to his dedicated corner
of the salon before the man on reception took Bennett and
Elisabeth’s coats.
“Now then, what has happened here?” Steffan asked, pulling up various pieces of
Elisabeth’s tresses and inspecting them as though
he’d never seen hair before.
“I’m not too sure I want to know,” Bennett said, watching Steffan look through
Elisabeth’s hair as though it were painful for him.
“Young lady, you should never let girls your age play hair
dresser at home with bleach.
It’s quite dangerous,” Steffan said.
Bennett’s eyebrows raised and Elisabeth glanced up at him as her
cheeks blushed.
“How did you know?” she timidly asked.
Steffan
was amused by Elisabeth’s question; having owned a salon with his wife for 25
years meant that they had pretty much seen everything. And he knew homemade highlights from a mile
away.
“In any case, get rid of those highlights completely so
it’s only her natural brunette colour, then cut her hair to
just below her chin and add a fringe,” Bennett said, folding his arms across his chest.
“Pardon?” Elisabeth asked, turning in the chair to face
Bennett. He didn’t look at her, but kept his attention on Steffan.
“That’s about eight inches coming off,” Steffan said, nodding at Bennett.
“Sorry?" Elisabeth asked, in the most polite tone she
could possibly manage. "I don't want my
hair cut that short."
Bennett
gave Elisabeth a look.
“Shall I let you two have a chat first?” Steffan asked.
Steffan
looked between Bennett and Elisabeth.
Elisabeth looked at Bennett, receiving a knowing glance from him and then
closed her lips. She had already been
punished for openly questioning Bennett in public at the bank. Elisabeth was certain it would be much worse
if she carried on openly questioning him in public after having already been
reminded.
“The
only chat to occur is the one we will have at home,”
Bennett said, raising his eyebrows at Elisabeth. She knew what that meant and he always kept
his word.Buy on Amazon.com

This is the second book in a series, and I loved it nearly as much as the first. It is fantastically written and offers the addition of romantic interest between Bennett and his charge, Elizabeth, that was not seen in the first book. I absolutely cannot wait to see where the series goes next.

This is the type of novel that draws you in. As I read it I found myself absorbed in the story, leaving the real world far behind. It is romantic and sincere and the age play elements seem natural to the storyline. This is a great book by a talented author, and I highly recommend it.
