Blurb:
Beauty
isn't perfection—it is the ability to see beyond the flaws.
Victorian
England is not kind to those born without privilege, and yet Lillian Lancaster
has made a home for herself and a scrawny feral cat. Lilly is happiest working
in the gardens, knowing she can never match their beauty. She is one of the
flower-girls on the streets selling the bouquets she makes with love for mere
pennies. When her very livelihood is threatened by what was intended as a
kindness, she assuages her conscience by crawling through the hedge and taking
only what she needs to survive. On the day her presence is threatened to be
discovered, she takes refuge in an oak tree and witnesses a scene that will
change her life.
The
moment Phillip Carrington sees Lilly hidden in the foliage, he is intrigued.
The moment he holds her, he is captivated. The moment she gives him her trust,
he knows he wants to spend the rest of his life convincing her that she is the
most beautiful bloom in the garden.
Will
his love be enough to teach this young woman that her past does not need to
keep her trapped in fear? Will learning what happens behind the etched-glass
doors of the special school run by Miss Eleanor Summers frighten her, or will
it let her see that what she perceives as flaws are actually to be viewed as
part of the beautiful soul that lives inside her? Will she place her trust in
Lord Carrington and, with the gift of her submission, allow him to lead her
away from the darkness?
Lilly
Blossoms is the third book in Maggie Ryan's bestselling Lessons in Submission
series and yet it can also be read as a stand alone.

Excerpt :
By
the time he walked back through the house, Lord Martingham and Eleanor were by
the front door, obviously waiting for his return.
"There
you are," Douglas said, giving Phillip a clap on the back.
"Everything taken care of?"
"Perhaps,"
Phillip answered and then grinned. "How about your little one. I didn't
get to tell her good night."
"She's
already tucked into bed," Douglas said. "She did ask me to inform you
that she did make her apologies as she promised. Oh, and she was very pleased
to discover that Joselyn's papa doesn't approve of fighting either."
Phillip
laughed. "So there two little ruffians going to bed with red rears?"
Douglas
nodded as Eleanor smiled, slipping her arms into the men's. "Lord
Carrington, I'm sure that you would be harder pressed to find any little one in
bed without a tender bottom. Our papas are known for using their special time
to give their precious girls a reminder to behave even if they haven't been
caught fighting."
"Don't
fret," Douglas said, "I assure you that your little niece was quite
happy when I kissed her goodnight and wished her sweet dreams."
Phillip
chuckled. Just as Rachel was not really a little girl, they were not truly
uncle and niece. He had been a friend of Douglas's since childhood, and once
he'd found and fallen in love with his wonderful woman who was also his special
little girl, Rachel had become Phillip's honorary niece. Knowing how much the
two loved each other, he had absolutely no doubt that his friend had made sure
Rachel received a very nice treat.
Author Bio:
#1 International and award winning best selling author for
Blushing Books. I write both
contemporary erotica and historical spanking romances. I enjoy writing about characters that enjoy
the provocative D/S lifestyle of today’s times as well as taking a step back
into the past to write stories that take place in the Victorian era with age-play
as a theme.
I live
in the great Lone Star state with my wonderful husband. I have always loved reading. Growing up in a family with four children, it
was difficult finding a place to be alone.
I was probably one of the squeakiest clean girls on the planet as I
would spend hours in the tub so I could read without being bothered. It wasn’t long before I began to make up my
own endings to the books I was reading.
From there, it just seemed natural to begin writing my own stories.
I
never try to restrict myself to any one genre because there are just too many
delicious possibilities out there and inside my head. I admit to being somewhat of a romantic
though as my stories always must have a great deal of love, passion, corporal
discipline and, of course, great, mind-blowing sex. I want my readers to be able to see, hear,
feel and know the characters that I’m creating as well as I do when I bring
them to life and transfer their stories to paper. I want my women to be strong of character but
also strong enough to know that submission given in love and trust to your
partner does not make you weaker, it makes you far stronger. I want my men to be sexy, strong, demanding
alpha males who know how to take what they want while acknowledging it is a gift
they have been blessed with by the women that have chosen to submit to
them. I want there to be no doubt that
they truly would die for the other no matter how others might view their
relationship.
