Sinossi

In "My Man Jeeves," P. G. Wodehouse introduces readers to the charmingly inept Bertie Wooster and his unflappable valet, Jeeves. This collection of early short stories exemplifies Wodehouse's signature blend of farcical humor and sophisticated wit, as it navigates the labyrinthine social structures of early 20th-century England. The narrative style is characterized by its playful dialogue and intricate plotting, showcasing Wodehouse's command over language and his ability to create delightful absurdities within seemingly mundane scenarios. The book serves as a cornerstone of the comedic genre, influencing countless writers and encapsulating the spirit of British humor during this period. P. G. Wodehouse, an English author and playwright, penned "My Man Jeeves" during a time when he was already establishing himself as a master of comic fiction. His upbringing in a middle-class family and later experiences in various parts of the world, including the United States, informed his nuanced understanding of class dynamics and societal norms. Wodehouse's keen observations and love for wordplay are palpable in his characters, making their predicaments both relatable and hilariously absurd. I highly recommend "My Man Jeeves" to readers seeking a witty escape into a world of elite farce. Wodehouse's exceptional storytelling, combined with his trademark humor, will engage both seasoned fans and newcomers alike, making it an indispensable addition to any literary collection.

My Melissa--Spanked by Her...

J.C. Cummings

Bruce Morgan is worried. His wife and fellow investment broker Melissa has just texted him--begging him to come up to her office. When he arrives, he finds her surrounded by four of her colleagues--three men and one woman--and they are livid over her recent insistence that they diversify their clients’ portfolios...with cannabis stocks! Now, their clients are angry, management is angry, and their careers are in jeopardy. Livid? Frankly, her colleagues are enraged.

Now, Bruce Morgan is scared.

These people want justice. They want restitution. And, after a brief huddle, they announce that a bare-bottom spanking be administered to Melissa by all of them. Naturally, the three male colleagues want her clothes to come off first.

Now, Bruce Morgan is confused.

With his wife now undergoing the most humiliating experience imaginable, he should feel sorry for her. And he does. It's just that, well, their sex-life has been more or less nonexistent ever since Melissa began obsessing over her work. So, the opportunity to witness this very arousing spectacle is overriding his compassion and making him very aroused, indeed.

And the "thoroughness" of Melissa’s colleagues in "evening the score" quickly brings the spectacle to an almost unimaginable level of humiliation. And titillation.

Now, Bruce Morgan is thrilled.

Guilt-ridden to the hilt, this frustrated hubby is nonetheless becoming so aroused seeing what his wife is being put through that, well, he just can’t resist joining in on the fun!

This is Book #6 in J.C.'s latest series: "My Wife--Submissive at Last"--a collection of titillating tales featuring horny, hard-up, and harried husbands who find themselves in newfound positions of power and dominance over their demanding, controlling, and sexually conservative wives.
