Blurb:
Our
lives shattered... Our hearts broken... Our souls torn to pieces...
He
was my world, my whole life. My reason for breathing. I had a perfect marriage,
a baby on the way, and I felt fulfilled—almost invincible.
Until
the day life hit, leaving me broken, vulnerable, and alone.
She
was my life. My ray of hope on the cloudiest day. With her, I thought I had the
ultimate safety. A love that would never hurt or betray me. I gave her my
heart, my body, and my soul.
Until
she broke me, destroying every dream and illusion I had about life, love, and
marriage.
In
our grief, we made a mistake. A mistake I'm not sure we can come back from.
EXCERPT #1
Our fingers lace together, and he tugs me close. My chest is crushed to his, and his face brushes the side of mine. I feel his hot breath in my ear, sending a trail of goose bumps down my body. Damn, he feels good. Warm, hard, and lean.
“Tell me something,” he whispers. My pulse spikes as I try to push back, aware that Cooper could see this, but he doesn’t let me go. “How do you want to be fucked? I can take you hard and fast, or slow. Are you wild, Kylie? Because that mouth of yours has me so hard, I can’t wait to shove my cock in it. I want you. So fucking badly.” He presses his dick against my stomach. “That’s what you’ve done to me with your naughty voice and attitude. I just hope you’re as good as you give, sweetheart.”
I’m breathless. I lick my lips, swallowing hard. “You can have me anyway you want.”
He stills, and the air around us, already charged, turns wicked. He pulls back, and his face is so hot, I melt. I dissolve into a pool of lust as I stare into his hungry eyes.
He plants a soft kiss on the corner of my lips. “How did I get this lucky tonight?”
Author Info:
A multi-tasker from
birth—and now proudly able to add 'writer' to my resume—I'm a mother, wife and
blogger. I love to read, write and drink copious amounts of iced coffee.
All three
aforementioned addictions are detrimental to my sanity.
I have a voracious
appetite for dark, painful and twisted reads. I'm enamored with the concept of
love and heart break. I believe life is a journey, a tale in its own for each
of us. The road to happiness is sometimes paved with stones from hell, or glitters
of satisfaction graced from the heavens above.
In my upcoming debut
novel, 'Against All Odds,' I strive to make you feel. I believe any
emotion—whether painful or happy—is good. To me, the key to living is to go
through life feeling its ups and downs. Love is dark and it can be painful but,
at the end of the day, it can save the most lost of souls and the most broken
of hearts
