About Karen Nappa
Karen Nappa writes Seasoned BDSM Romance with HEA. Their growing library including TRAPPED (a D/s story), and CHERISHED (an age play story). Their latest release, BLINDED, is the fifth book in the Club Indigo series.
Immersed in the D/s lifestyle themselves, they write realistic albeit romantic stories. When not dominated by their cats or their Master (in that order - even if it earns them a spanking!), they love going to Club Indigo and other places to discover the stories that are waiting to be written.
*****
Karen Nappa pens an engaging tale in book 5 of the Club Indigo series that will have you rooting for GT to win over Sandra and admiring the lengths to which this strong dominant is willing to go to break through the shield Sandra keeps around her heart. - BJ Wane, Bestselling Author of the Cowboy Doms and Miami Masters series.
*****
Blinded is a well-crafted story that draws the reader in immediately and holds them until the very last page. I have not read the other books in the series, but that did not slow me down for a minute - Stevie MacFarlane, author
*****
Kudos to Karen Nappa for bringing their knowledge of real life BDSM dungeons and practices to their work - Maren Smith, author about Cherished.
*****
When not texting, skyping or writing together the American half likes to spin yarn and make quilts, while the Dutch "partner in crime" prefers to go for a run while listening to heavy metal.
April 11th, 2019 will be a date they will always remember. Not only was it the day their debut was released, it also was the day that the two halves of Karen Nappa met in person.

Finding Trouble (Quinn Quartet Book 2)
Mar 18, 2021
$3.99
Don’t come looking for trouble… because it will find you
Maddy has been called a rebel and a troublemaker her entire life. Struggling to find her way in life under the watchful eyes of the domineering men in her family, she's known for taking risks.
Lou is back from twenty years of active duty. It left visible and invisible scars but honed his skills and sharpened his ingrained instinct to protect the weaker. On his return, he's prepared for Peaceful to be changed but he isn't prepared to meet his childhood best friend or how she makes his cock harden and his palm itch. His baby girl will rebel against him at every turn, but he's determined to keep her safe, well-satiated and her bottom thoroughly blistered so she has no choice but to accept him as her Daddy Dom.
Don't miss this friends-to-lovers small-town romance with a swoon-worthy Daddy Dom in uniform and a doctor who fought for her independence all her life. Although Finding Trouble is a complete romance novel we advise starting this series by reading Delving Deep first.

A small-town doctor left behind with three young boys. A compassionate woman who can help them heal. But is their town ready for an interracial relationship – and is he ready for her?
Peaceful, Ohio, is a small village in the Appalachian hills. Amidst the scenery of stunning nature, the villagers don’t have much more entertainment than gossip. Local doctor Jacob is a respected member of the community. Coming from a line of farmers and miners, he got himself through college on a scholarship. When he returned to take over old Doctor Johnson’s practice, the town welcomed him like a hero – even when he brought home a city girl as his wife.
When his wife abandons him and their three young sons, all the ladies smell blood. Circling him like vultures, Jacob tries to ignore them as best he can. He buries himself in his work because Jacob has had enough of women for the rest of his life.
Hester thought teaching young children would be her greatest challenge when she arrived in Peaceful. She isn't expecting to deal with a hostile community and a burned man.
Only when he buries the past, can they have a future.
Author’s note: Healing Jacob’s Heart is a short (historical) prequel to a brand-new series by Karen Nappa: The Quinn Quartet. It contains spanking, explicit language, and a guaranteed HEA.
