title: Bethany Sins
author: Appleton, Alanna
description: An erotic novel with mixed themes including contemporary, m/f, f/f, spanking and corporal punishment. Bethany Court has been brought up by a strict moralistic code, which shatters when her long-standing boyfriend deserts her. Emotional turmoil awakens hidden desires, fired by a book in the town library where she works. It's claimed that one of Griffin Bay's most respected ladies was the head of a secret society - the Sisterhood of Sin. Images from the book, of corporal punishment games, release Bethany's own repressed sexuality. When its author, the mysterious Marcus Quill, visits for a signing and tells her the Sisterhood may still exist, Bethany determines to find the truth of it. Along the way she will draw the staff of the library, among others, into her quest - and may end up as Griffin Bay's new Queen of Sin.
