Word of the Day: Disobedient

Meg's been thrown out of her home, rejected by her friends and lover, banished by her pride, and thrust into Half-Were House to continue her obedient life.

Determined not to take things belly up just because that's the way she likes it in bed, the sweet submissive disobediently returns to The Valley to reclaim her adored teaching position. With the surprising ally of a surprisingly dominant farmer, Meg faces down prejudiced felines who would love nothing more than to turn her into dog food. The pride's leader lays down the terms for Meg's safe return, but will she be able to help Ben submit enough for her to stay?
