Introduction: "A Fantastic Kind of Pain"

Just as I have a seemingly endless capacity to bare my ass and get it smacked soundly or make a squirming bottom hover on the edge of erotic oblivion with loud, ringing, stinging whack after whack, I don't think I'll ever get tired of reading stories about spanking. There was a time when I wasn't sure I could say that; after all, just how much is there to say about bending over and letting a firm hand connect with a pertly offered-up bottom? Or striking a pretty pair of buttcheeks so well the person beneath you moans in ecstatic agony? Well, as I've learned while editing this collection, there are an infinite number of ways to talk about the pleasures of getting spanked or spanking someone. While the actions may look alike, we all experience them differently and have different motives for indulging in this beloved kinky activity.

Me? I get off on just thinking about bending over for that special someone. Maybe I'm wearing panties, and only part of my bottom is visible. Maybe I'm not, and my spanker can see everything, including my wetness. I get wet at the mere idea of offering up my entire body to a lover to play with, tease, spank, and arouse. I've also had plenty of eager bottoms spread before me, offering asses that just begged to be spanked, whether they speak words to that effect or not. But for me, and for many others, spanking is about much more than just the physical. It's about what that sensation creates inside of us. Spanking breaks down our barriers in ways even sex sometimes doesn't; it stirs up emotions; it makes us whimper or cry, or be proud of just how much we can take. It's primal and powerful, not to mention incredibly popular. I was thrilled to see spanking make an appearance on Showtime's Californication, where the bratty, bossy bottom of a secretary demands that her boss spank her for any office infraction. "Hit Me Baby One More Time," indeed.

And those who bestow spankings, whether with hands, paddles, hairbrushes, or other devices, relish that power to bring pleasure and pain mixed together, to completely undo the person they are spanking with just a few (or possibly many) whacks.

Customer Reviews

Spanked!
It's a spanking good time! That's very tongue-in-cheek way to describe this, but I am writing this review to let others know that this one does NOT fall short. It is sexy and really, really good. There are about 20 stories inside, both from male and female perspectives. And all told in a really hot and sexy way. I liked that the writing wasn't hurried or trying to do the whole cat and mouse thing--i.e.are they gonna spank them or not?? It was straight up and loads of fun! A recommend! Also liked Breaking the Girl and Eager to Please: Two Erotic Novels of Submission.

Red, Hot, and Sexy - Just like a spanking should be!
Rachel Kramer Bussel's anthologies are always a hot read, you can count on that. I've read several of them: Dirty Girls: Erotica for Women, Tasting Him: Oral Sex Stories, Tasting Her: Oral Sex Stories, and now Spanked: Red-Cheeked Erotica. Each time I'm impressed by the variety of authors and their unique writing styles. In Spanked you'll find 20 very different erotic tales that are all centered around spanking, as the title implies.

What I really like about this anthology in particular is that it gives insight into a topic that once was very taboo and now is a mainstream fetish. All kinds of people like spanking for all kinds of reasons. Each person has their own payoff from the experience - not only do I mean the spanker and the spankee, but each pair has their own experience and each person uniquely in that pair has their own experience. No two spanking sessions are the same, and as in real life, no two spanking stories are the same in this book. Some you will like more than others, because they appeal to that part of you. Some you may like less because they just don't resonate with your curiosities and desires. As a whole, the book will entertain you and give you plenty of motivation to play around with spanking.

I recommend this book especially for those couples who are curious about or into spanking, especially if you are trying to introduce the topic to your partner for the first time. It is a nice way to ease into the subject - as a couple you can read a story, have one person read aloud to the other, and open the door to a topic that may have otherwise been awkward to bring up. For monogamous couples, I think it's the intellectual equivalent to spicing up your sex life with a naughty movie.

A decadent pleasure
The tantalizing variety of stories in this spanking-themed anthology are like rich chocolates, with each delectable morsel leaving the reader wanting just one more bite. Rachel Kramer Bussel has put together a fabulous collection of stories in Spanked. She proves-- once again-- that she is not only an outstanding author, but a shrewd editor with a keen sense of pacing that leaves the reader eagerly anticipating the next story.

Among my favorite stories in this collection are Shanna Germain's shiveringly good "Perfect Bound," Alison Tyler's naughty-but-oh-so-nice "Betty Crocker Gone Bad" and Donna George Storey's teasing confessional "A Rare Find." Speaking of rare finds, I was also pleased to discover some new-to-me authors in the lineup, including Rick Roberts. Roberts' delightful "Spanking You" opens the anthology and sets the tone for a variety of delicious intimacies.

Spanked is one of those books you will want to share with the one you love... or the ones you know love spankings!
