About this listen
Anna Martin has never lived her life in accordance with what others might think. Now, hiding behind the trunk of a tree, she's beginning to truly regret that fact. Listening to her reputation being ripped apart is making her suspect that her Ma's warnings are most likely coming true. After all, what man would ever consider courting - let alone wedding - a woman who never stops to consider what consequences her actions might have?
Richard Andrews has just returned to Crooked Creek after being gone for three years. The day he'd left, he'd heard Anna screeching that she hated being a girl. He'd also seen her spirit as her Pa had picked her up, turned her across his knee and given her a spanking. Richard has secretly loved Anna for years, and has returned to claim the feisty little copper-haired girl who has grown into a beautiful woman.
He loves her spirit and her determination, and knows both will serve her well. Without her by his side, the dream he is working so hard to fulfill would be worthless. He wants the angel he knows she is - as well as the wanton lover he can detect in her flashing eyes. By the time they reached a marriage agreement, she'd know that she was loved and could always count on him to keep her in line - even if that means turning his passionate pioneer over his knee on a regular basis. Now all he has to do is convince her to trust him; convince her to become his wife.
Can Anna push aside her pride and actually turn to another for help? She remembers Mr. Andrews very well from when she was just 15 years old. She'd been devastated when he'd simply ridden away that day. Why was he back, and what did he mean when he asked her to trust him? All she really knew was that, the moment he took her hand, her heart was lost.

Story
Once a respectable young governess, Louise Small tumbled from society's grace after her employer forced himself on her. She wound up at The Red Petticoat playing Little Lapis Lazuli, a submissive who dresses like a girl and offers her bottom up for frequent spankings. She enjoys her new identity, so far removed from the prim governess she'd been, but she longs for a real daddy - one who is kind and caring, yet willing to administer real discipline.

A known troublemaker around town, she can't seem to keep a job or avoid skirmishes with the law, so the town marshal implores Heath to help.

When Bunny Whitman humiliates herself in an interview, in front of stern, intimidating, billionaire Takis Karas, she thinks she's blown it. But when Takis calls her a few days later, he makes her an offer she can't refuse. In return, she'll get a million dollars. The only catch? If she slips up, the consequences will be dire. And spanking is just the start. It's surprise after surprise for Bunny - but the biggest shock is just how much she loves to be cared for and coddled, and just how hot she finds the demanding discipline her new Daddy doles out, even when it leaves her shaking.

After several decades of looking for true love and never finding it, aging model and lingerie designer, Alexa Ranger, has finally given up the search. A couple of years ago, she got tired of the game completely and just stopped dating. Now friends and family keep her mostly content, so it's shocking at 50 years old to find herself suddenly wanting a sex life again. It's even more shocking to be attracted to a much younger man this time. She definitely thinks Casey Carter is sexy, but not handling her own age well, Alexa just can't get passed their 12 year age difference to even consider a fling.

Story
Ryder, Garrett, Kenzo, and Diesel - The Vipers. Their deals are as sordid as their business, and their reputation is enough to bring a grown man to his knees, forcing him to beg for mercy. They are not people you mess with, yet my dad did. The old man ran up a debt with them and then sold me to cover his losses. Yes, sold me. They own me now. I’m theirs in every sense of the word. But I’ve never been meek and compliant.

Nadine’s screw-up has brought Wesley Chen of the rival Spear no end of joy—she’s been a thorn in his extremely ambitious side for years. But the renewed interest in Dot also surfaced chatter about a mysterious past scandal.

Story
After watching my mother succumb to a mysterious illness, I promised myself two things. I'd find the cure for what ravaged her and leave the godforsaken city where she abandoned me. Four years later, I received an acceptance letter from Dracadia University, one of the oldest most prestigious schools in the country. Nestled on a secluded island off the coast of Maine, it's rumored to be haunted by the souls of the mental patients exiled there centuries before, those whose bones are said to make up the island's white sandy shores. And restless ghosts aren't even its most daunting peculiarity.

Not my cup of tea
Any additional comments?
This is one of those books you really like or really dislike. So where to start….If you like spankings and some other *ss play this is your book. Overall the story was entertaining. I enjoy westerns, erotica, historical and romance. All of those together should have been a 5 star listen. Unfortunately, this book just wasn't my cup of tea. Is a book I will listen to again? No.
Was spanking common back in the mid 1800's? Most likely. Was it a time when men expected to be listened to? Yes. Even if it was, this story would have been much more enjoyable if the spankings had been fewer. This was basically a Dom/Submissive story in a historical setting.
The story started out really good then took a backseat to the spankings. The book summery states "even if that means turning his passionate pioneer over his knee on a regular basis". That statement and what actually happens in the story are completely different things. He uses his hand, a paddle, a strap and a switch and it's not just spankings.
Anna is young and spirited. Yes, she does act like a child at times. But how would you act if your husband treated you like a child all the time? Richard her new husband belittles her, degrades her, treats her like a child, talks to her like a child and chastises her like a child. Really this is how you are going to treat the woman you just married? Then you expect her to act like an adult.
Logan McAllister did a really good job with the narration. Nice voice. Clearly spoken with a smooth even pace. Good character voices. His narration kept me listening. He brought the characters and the story to life. His narration of the story was very enjoyable.

Great story and loved the narrator
This was a wonderful story. It really immerses the listener into the emotional and physical hardships of traveling west, while weaving a love story throughout the journey. The caring, loving relationship between Anna and Richard is sweet and hot at the same time. I really enjoyed this story.
The narration was spot on. I could listen to his voice for hours. His voice really worked well with the story and just brought it to life.

Anna and Richard
I really enjoy Maggie Ryan's writing style and this was a very enjoyable story. Richard is very dominant and Anna is submissive. At times, he treated her like a child and would punish her. Logan McAllister did a great job with the narration. I received this free copy audio book at my request and have voluntarily left this review.

Enjoyable historical fiction!
I enjoy the occasional historical fiction, especially when it's pioneers and the wagon trail. I also love domestic discipline stories. This book had both, and I really liked it!
The only thing I didn't care as much for is how immature the heroine was, and how whiney and disrespectful she was. Of course, she did always get punished for it, so that's something! But I myself am not a big fan of "daddy" stories. While she didn't call him daddy or have to act like a little girl, (although her behavior was a bit young at times! lol) it still had a bit of that feel to it, the way he always called her "little girl" and treated her like a little girl. I enjoy punishment for misbehavior, but I don't like being talked to like a child. I realize alot of people do though, so if that is your thing, you will love this book!
Despite that, this was a really well written story, and she makes you care about the characters. I listened to this as an audio book, and the narration was done really well also! I really enjoyed it, and will be reading (or listening to) more of her books!

perfect wagon train west.
Would you consider the audio edition of His Passionate Pioneer to be better than the print version?
No i didn't care for the narration that much it was but it's ok, I can't put my finger on specifically what it was that makes it that way for me.
If you were to make a film of this book, what would the tag line be?
Wagons west meets sore bottoms.
Any additional comments?

This review is from: His Passionate Pioneer (Willamette Wives Book 1) (Kindle Edition)
I loved this and couldn't put it down. Richard was very strict when needed as Anna was very naughty and feisty by nature. Though Richard doesn't punish for every little thing he does for when Anna does something dangerous without thought to others.

Skilled author weaves a story that stirs emotion
I think both the writer and narrator did a wonderful job on this book. I was really pulled into the tale and loved this author's 'voice' as well as the narrators. Maggie's writing was absolutely wonderful and Logan's voice was expressive, passionate and distinctive in differentiating the characters.
Richard and Anna were wonderfully written multi-dimensional characters and I enjoyed the romance that the author weaved.
The only thing that caused me to give a four star rating was the fact that there was some inconsistency in Richard's personality as far as punishments went. Now, I take it as a sign of a great author to bring about emotions in their readers and Maggie definitely did this--kudos! Example of one particular inconsistency: I was quite upset and stirred up when Richard - upset about his wife taking unnecessary risk to her safety by swimming naked (as she might be raped by an unscrupulous man lacking self control), decides to punish her, but then he forces her to stand naked and ALONE even more exposed and at risk on the river bank while he goes off to tell the others she's been found. He exposes her to the exact danger he intended to punish her for, which was inconsistent of his strong need to keep her safe and protected throughout the book. Things like this show the author truly had me invested in the story and character outcomes so I must say overall this is a wonderful listen! I thoroughly enjoyed it (even the moments that made me uncomfortable and squirmy) and would highly recommend it!

Overall Pretty Good
Would you say that listening to this book was time well-spent? Why or why not?
Yes, unless a book is just truly awful time is never wasted when listening.
Was His Passionate Pioneer worth the listening time?
I was pretty well hooked in the beginning. It moves a lot faster than expected so I think the blurb about the book really should be tweaked a bit as almost all of what is written happens in the first few chapters and really should incorporate more of the story.
Any additional comments?
I received a copy of this audio book for free in exchange for an honest review. I enjoyed the book. It wasn't my favorite by far and I got a little frustrated with Anna constantly talking about "what everyone else would think". However the book overall was a fun listen. If there is a second book I would consider purchasing it.

I Didt't Like This One
Would you say that listening to this book was time well-spent? Why or why not?
Not it was not time well-spent. There was constant beatings throughout the book. Everything was centered around the fact that women and small children get spankings no beatings for the smallest infraction. When you take a belt and give an 18 year old girl 12 lashes across her backside that is not a spanking. The other incidents described were just as bad.
If you’ve listened to books by Maggie Ryan before, how does this one compare?
I don't remember listening to any of her books. Her narration was good in this one.
Have you listened to any of Logan McAllister’s other performances before? How does this one compare?
He does a good job in each listen I have heard.
Do you think His Passionate Pioneer needs a follow-up book? Why or why not?
No. This was way too much for me.
Any additional comments?
I got this book via audiobook boom.

Well written, well read
I received a copy of this audio book for free in exchange for an honest review. This book was well written, lacks to all to familiar grammatical errors that so many books these days feature. The story was enjoyable, I have always been a fan of westerns, and even with the added twist, it was a good story. The narration was done well!

This trope can be hard to accept
This book was well written, but I admit this trope can be hard to read/listen to. Trigger warnings abound. It helps to think of this as some alien world where things work differently. It does help that all the characters are living in the same world where men discipline the women out of love. There's times when I wanted to scream that it was all a bunch of BS, but had to remind myself this is fiction.
