Whipping Tom: Terror of the Milkmaid’s Bum by Ardie Stallard
“Between 1672 and 1712 in London and at least two of the suburban or rural areas near the city, three individuals, each known as “Whipping Tom,” carried out brief, minor reigns of terror against unsuspecting females. The moniker’s pretty much self-explanatory: from what scanty records we can find, all three inflicted quick but undoubtedly painful corporal punishments on their victims. That is, spanking or whipping the unfortunate women’s buttocks. One supposes it’s a mercy that nobody thought to call any of the three ‘Jack the Whipper.’…
“The first Tom… personally intrigues me the most because, of the three, we know the absolute least about him. No information remains of where he staged his spankings or of his ever being caught, but that he existed is evident from the one record that mentions him, a comparison between him and Tom II (“Whipping Tom Brought to Light and Exposed to View,” Anonymous, London, 1681): ‘Know then, that according to common Fame, [the current Whipping Tom] is of the Generation of that Whipping Tom, that about Nine years since proved such an enemy to the Milk-wenches’ Bums, and often times occasioned the Country Dames to hire a Guard for the security of their Posteriors; whose name so overawed Joan and Ciss that they durst not stir out after Candlelight to meet their Sweet-hearts, for fear of having an Alarum beaten upon their Tobies…’”
Thus writes Felicia Culbertson Guthrie, heroine of Pink Flamingo Media’s “Switch” series who, with a little help from her friend Ardie Stallard, now takes pen in hand to write and offer up a novel of her own. Though not a factual account of the three historical figures known to us as “Whipping Tom,” her work is a plausible historical fiction piece of what COULD have happened. And who knows? Maybe it did! Edited by her husband, Joe Guthrie, and her friend “Ed” Edwards, in addition to Ardie Stallard’s contributions, it’s a spicy account of seventeenth-century adult spanking, both erotic and otherwise. Hold onto your toby, and take a read!

The BookViral Review:
The mystery of Ardie Stallard continues in another superb BDSM offering, ‘Whipping Tom – The Terror Of The Milkmaid’s Bum’. With a tongue-in-cheek, wholly transparent delivery, Stallard mixes saucy desire with delicious irony, as we are taken on a racy journey which has its conception in three historical accounts of an equivalent sin-public non-consensual whipping of the backside! The ingenious plot connects these separate crimes and their resolution seamlessly, through the generations of one family.
Stallard’s wholly believable narrative captures the setting of Epping Forest and London Town perfectly, as does their representation of 18th Century British Society. Irrepressibly entertaining, one can imagine frolics in leafy glades as the protagonists explore the complicated negotiations of sexual desire in the fresh English countryside.
Stallard cleverly draws the line between titillating fun and self-serving and selfish depravity as characters negotiate their own diverse selections of rompish lovemaking, which come upon them wholly by chance, but are settled into unswervingly in their respective relationships, keeping bonds strong and sparks flying deep into middle age.
A stellar cast of characters breaching two generations echoes the innocent and fun element of dominance, while not drowning the cleverly constructed plot or reducing the characters to purely sexual beings. Combining the perspectives of each character, Stallard is true to each, subtly teasing out their personalities through their own words and actions. A refreshing openness explores the multi-faceted attraction of youth, whilst accepting flaws and deviations as part of life and the human psyche.
Particularly engaging are the feisty and fun Mother and daughter duo, Barbra and Margaret (Meg) whose relationship matures and blossoms as the story unfolds, and who unfailingly keep the ardour of their respective beau’s flowing in good measure, despite slightly indiscreet dalliances. The endearing and long-lasting relationship between Barbra and Will is a delight, as they unfailingly find themselves deeply connected both emotionally and sexually despite the ravages of circumstance and age.
Sensual and spicy- an amusing and vastly entertaining novel recommended for the frolicsome and open-minded.

It is definitely not for the faint of heart, but for readers who are open to exploring new and taboo subjects, this book is a will captivate you from beginning to end. The author does a fantastic job of vividly describing the scenes, characters, and emotions throughout the book, making it easy to visualize everything that is happening.
My favorite part of the book was the scene where Margaret spanks herself with the wood strip and is caught by Leonard. The tension and steamy atmosphere in that scene were palpable, and the author did an excellent job of conveying the erotic overtones without being too graphic. The plot twists and turns kept me on the edge of my seat, and the satisfying ending left me feeling fulfilled.
Overall, I would highly recommend this book to anyone looking for a captivating, dark, and romantic read. It isn’t your typical love story, but that is what makes it so unique and engaging. It is scandalous, twisted, and sexy all at once, and I can’t wait to see what this author comes up with next!

“Whipping Tom” is a light-hearted, fun little jaunt into the world of serial spanking in 1700’s England. It is written at a very high level for an erotic novel, which was a pleasant surprise. I was especially struck by how artfully edited it was. The absurdity of these three swooping into these “victims” lives and spanking them senseless provides a lot of entertainment and out-loud laughter with the classic prose.
A wonderfully and artfully written take that takes you back to times of old. If you love a good adult novel, and particularly love a good spanking, you will enjoy this book.
I highly recommend this book, and greatly look forward to more from this author.

While it may appeal to readers interested in historical fiction centered around erotic spanking, the subject matter may not be suitable for all readers. The book is a metafictional historical novel that imagines the lives of three individuals known as “Whipping Tom” who carried out brief reigns of terror against unsuspecting females in 17th century London.
The writing style is adequate and the book includes explicit scenes that may be considered spicy or erotic in nature. However, the plot and character development may not be fully fleshed out, and some readers may find the book lacking in depth or substance.
Overall, “Whipping Tom: Terror of the Milkmaid’s Bum” may be worth checking out for those interested in the genre, but may not be everyone’s cup of tea.

Not being one to usually read (or enjoy) erotica, this book came recommended. And I very much enjoyed it. The old English setting of London is vividly described and provides an intriguing background to the tales of sexiness within. Fun and… frankly erotic. Recommend.
