This is an interesting book.  Iron Hand is actually Hugh.  He is a taciturn man who really leaves for being left alone in his castle.  When Aethelwald comes to visit, he brings news that he and Hugh must go to see if the lovely Elfrida is really as lovely as said and if so, procure her to be the King’s new wife.  While there Aethelwald decides to take advantage of a young girl named Elena.  She is a commoner and unable to say no.  But, she bites him and then flees to Hugh’s room.  In exchange for his protection, she gives him her virginity.  I guess that I realize that this happened in those times, I just don’t like to read about it.  She doesn’t love him, he doesn’t love her, he just wants to have sex.  Not the greatest beginning, but not terrible either.  Hugh spanks her for his enjoyment and her own.This book actually has a great plot line.  There is a lot of political maneuvering as there is a king who wants a wife and a nobleman who wants the same wife.  Elena and Hugh seem to be the side story to me.  There are spankings, but they are of the sexy kind.  It turns them both on for Elena to be spanked.I gave this story 4 stars because it really is a good story.  It just isn’t the spanking story that I wanted.
