The Martindale Farm Series An Anthology Welcome to Martindale Farm, where the widowed Tom Martindale has agreed for the local courts to send young adult women in need of some structure and firm discipline. Through the course of time, Tom, his son, and one of his trusted employees see to it that failure to abide by residence rules or acts of disrespect are dealt with by being rendered unable to sit down for a while. But that's not all that happens at Martindale Farm. As luck would have it, most of the young women who opt to go to the farm rather than face possible jail time or criminal charges find romance in the air. See what happens when Colin Hendricks arrives at the farm as a 20-year-old woman facing penalties for some alcohol-related hazardous driving practices. Then there is a matter of Gabrielle Walters who agrees to go to the farm to avoid charges of concealing criminal tools while helping a couple of friends involved in some drug activities. Things get interesting when Debbie Howard and Andrea Bennett arrive on the same day at Martindale Farm. Of course, neither expected to see the other, an uncomfortable position considering that it was an altercation between the two of them that led to their being charged in the first place. But a very different challenge comes to Tom Martindale when the judge asks him to consider a special case: Teresa Barnhart is 42 years old, and had heard rumors about Martindale Farm. And in a moment of weakness and desperation, she steals some cash from her employer. Faced with the wreckage of her reputation just at the point where she is about to finish her Masters degree in business, Teresa proposes that she be allowed to go to the farm for a month to receive several scheduled sessions of corporal punishment in lieu of facing criminal charges. But will she find that Martindale Farm has something (or someone) more to offer than simply being allowed to escape criminal charges by having her bottom frequently rendered the color of crimson? Please enjoy this special set of stories from Lynn Carlyle. You may never again drive past a scenic and peaceful looking farm without thinking about these stories.

clever stories

lt has to be hard to come up with new spanking scenarios, and these authors have done a good job of it.
However, to a greater or lesser degree, they all adopt a strange POV, which seems very common in this genera. Too many scenes are rendered as if the protagonist exists in a trance. They are always "finding themselves" smiling, or submitting. Why not just smile? It's as if the whole story is happening to them rather than their just being in the story. And there is a cutsie tone l find maddening. Everything is "quite" this or "somewhat" that or " rather" something else. It sometimes seems that they are afraid to just describe a thing without qualifying it. Or maybe they just vomit adjectives and adverbs randomly throughout the narrative.
