RFTC Back to School Event with Harper Kincaid

Born in California and raised in South Florida, I've moved around like a gypsy with a bounty on my head ever since. Along the way, I worked as a community organizer, a professional matchmaker, a popular blogger, and a crisis counselor (to name a few). All the while, longing to have the guts to do what I really wanted: to write and become a published author. That wish has finally come true and I feel like a karmic cloud has been lifted off my head. Those of you who have also taken a circuitous route in trying to find their path get me - I can tell.

What else? Hmm... I love indie, lo-fi, complaint rock played on vinyl, wearing black because it's slimming, the theater, well-informed optimism, happy endings (both kinds), and making those close to me laugh 'til they snort. I'm a self-admitted change junkie, loving new experiences and places, but have now happily settled in the cutest lil' town, Vienna, Virginia, with my awesome and patient husband and two kick-ass girls.

Getting Schooled by a Master

By: David Cavill

Yeah, I know what you’re thinking. I look like that other Cavill guy. But I’m David Cavill, security expert and Shibari master, featured in my good friend’s novel, Bind Me Before You Go. You know, September isn’t only a time for the kids to come back to school. No matter how old we are, we never stop learning. That’s something my woman, Cassidy, taught me recently. Thank fuck I was paying attention.

Think of this Back to School time of year as a reminder to stretch yourself beyond your comfort zone. I can’t stand it when I hear someone say ‘no’ to something because they don’t think they’ll like it. Conversely, nothing is sexier to a man than a woman comfortable in her own skin and up for an adventure. I noticed that about Cassidy the first night I met her at the BDSM, Serve; how she owned the space she inhabited. As I got to know her, I fell for how open she was to experiencing everything out of life. And I’ve got to admit it: I got off – hard – on getting to being the one to show it to her. Since Harper told our story, I’ve gotten to introduce Cassidy to unusual cuisines, take her on last minute adventures overseas, and expose her to more of herself and her sexuality – without violence or domination – together in and out of Serve. Just as important, Cassidy has given me some of my own firsts. So yeah, eventually the student became the teacher and I am learning just like the rest of you.

Harper Kincaid will be sharing my good buddy, Leo Delacroix’s, story, and his girl, Allison, in Claim Me Before I Break. Talk about control freaks! I can’t wait for you to read their story and find out how those two learn how giving up what they think they want is the only way to finally find exactly what they need. See? It’s never too late to ‘get schooled’ by a master.

His heart is bound tighter than the bondage he craves...

Determined to put her past behind her, Cassidy Peyton moves to the Big Apple. But New York has a few dark secrets of its own, including Serve, an exclusive BDSM club. It's a place she isn't sure she's ready for, until she sees him watching her. Hot. Intent. Knowing. With eyes that leave her stomach tied in knots, because the loneliness he's trying to hide matches her own.

Security expert David Cavill has more secrets than any man should. Secrets that forever shut down any possibility of love, marriage, or family. Yet Cassidy draws him in, an intoxicating combination of strength, candor, and sensuality that David can't resist. But as their bond deepens, Cassidy must decide if she can love a man whose heart is bound tighter than the form of bondage he craves...
