Title: IN THIS LIFE

 

Author: Christine Brae

 

Release Date: January 22, 2016

 

 

Pageflex Persona [document: PRS0000035_00030]



Synopsis

It started out so simply. Anna runs away to Thailand, drags her best friend Dante with her and spends a few weeks away, taking on other people’s problems while getting away from her own. She meets the enigmatic Jude Grayson, and for as long as it’s clear to both of them that it ends when they leave, she thinks she’s got the perfect fling planned out.
Or does she?
Anna returns home to find that her life is no longer the way it once was, and that she can’t stop thinking about him. She learns through tragedy that nothing she’s ever believed in has turned out to be true. The worst part? The people she loved were keeping a secret from her. And that no matter what she does, no matter how hard she fights against it, every path she takes keeps leading her back to Jude.
This is a story about love, found in a faraway place by two very unlikely people. It is also a story about friendship and loyalty and fighting for what you have despite the illogical mystery of fate. And with the struggle between morality and guilt, faith and acceptance, there comes a learning that even the best-laid plans are powerless against the alignment of the universe.
From the beaches of Thailand to the streets of New York, three friends, Anna, Dante, and Jude will learn the hard way that once providence steps in, there is nothing in the world that can change what is truly meant to be.

Your favorite part of
the story?
I have so many favorite parts, but I think I love the
Epilogue the most.
Hardest part to
write?
Sex scenes. Always. They’re all the same words, actions,
movements. The trick is to make the reader fill it, disengage their brain from
their heart. And it’s so difficult to do that.
Where there any
alternate endings you considered? (Explain further)
Yes, but if I tell you I’d have to kill you!
I will release them after the book is out.
Fast Talk:
Craziest fan story?
My fans are not crazy. In fact, I wished they were sometimes.
Hidden talent? I can tell you everyone’s extension number at
the office.
3 things you never leave home without? Claudelie face spray,
wallet, glasses
How much are you willing to fight for love? All the way,
until something blatantly slaps you in the face and says that it’s time to
stop.
Finish the sentence: In this life… there are different kinds of love.

Excerpt

 

The door? Was that what I had just heard? Instinctively, I
reached my arm out to feel for her, but I found myself alone in the middle of
the bed. I jerked up in surprise and looked around the room. There were two
dirty wine glasses and an empty bottle of wine on the floor. The covers were
hanging off the side of the bed, and the pillows were neatly piled on top of
one another occupying the space where she had slept.
“Anna!” I yelled. No. She couldn’t have left me. Why did she
leave?
Frantically, I sprang out of bed and pulled my jeans on. I
didn’t care that all I had on was a t-shirt as I ran out the door and flew down
the five flights of stairs to the main entrance. My feet felt numb against the
freshly fallen snow, but I felt no pain. I had to find her. I ran down the
sidewalk until I spotted her walking on the opposite side of the road, head
down, shoulders hunched, one hand holding her hat onto her head.
“Anna! Anna, wait!” I shouted at the top of my lungs.
She stopped when she saw that it was me. I ran across the
road as fast as my frozen feet would take me. The neighborhood was slowly
waking up, people were just about to start their day.
And as we faced each other, I knew that I would live out my
days with her. I wanted to touch her but didn’t want to scare her off any
further. The snow began to fall lightly. Dance with me, I wanted to say. Who
cares if the rain has frozen into snow? The music in our hearts will warm it
right up.
“Where are your shoes?” she asked, one hand still on her
head, the other in her coat pocket. The morning wind was biting; it stuck to
the skin, sharp little pins all over your body.
“It doesn’t matter. Why did you leave? Why are you leaving
me?” I tried to form the words in my mouth while trying to stop my teeth from
chattering.

SHUTTERGIRL FINAL

Blurb

  • THE USA TODAY BESTSELLER
  • I never forgot her. Not for one minute. Not from the last time I saw her, at seventeen, to today. I measured all women against her and all women came up short.
    But being with her was unfeasible in high school, and it’s taboo now.
    I see her sometimes, but I’ve never spoken to her. She runs, or I run. We’re in the same town, on the same block, in the same building, and the gulf between us is just too wide to cross.
    Until tonight.
    —-
    He was my high school crush, back when I lived in a world that didn’t want me. He was the perfect boy, and I was the outcast kid from the other side of town. And when he held my hand I thought I could fit in, just a little. I thought I could be his and he could be mine.
    Then he left, and my life fell apart.
    Now we are the king and queen of opposite sides of Hollywood. And we haven’t spoken a word to each other.
    Until tonight.

Excerpt #1

I stroked his hair, waist deep in peace, all worry gone for the moment, and floating in no more than an ocean of gratitude. I must have been more vulnerable than I realized, or he’d reopened some wound with his kindness, because though my sweet reverie stayed, as the minutes passed, a layer of need fitted itself on top of it.

I needed to tell him, if not the details, the outlines of who I was.

“I want you to know,” I whispered, starting somewhere small, then everything I didn’t want to say spilled out. “I have stuff. I’ve never been to jail, but you know, it’s stuff, and it’s ugly, and it scares me. Because, I mean, you’re so perfect, and I’m… I’m just a mess. I’m not whole. I’m a bunch of pieces of a person I cobbled together.” My eyes got wet when I thought of the comparisons between us and that picture in my silverware drawer. “So if you have to move on when you realize that, I’ll understand. You have an image, and if anyone understands protecting a career, it’s me. I mean, I’ll be mad, don’t get that wrong, but also.” I swallowed and blinked, shifting my head so he wouldn’t feel the tear on his forehead. “I won’t blame you.”

I waited for an answer. Anything. A change in position or a word on any subject. The weather. Sports. Something. But all he did was breathe.

I smiled so wide, tears fell into my mouth. He was sleeping.

ABOUT THE AUTHOR

CD Reiss

cd reiss bio

CD Reiss is a USA Today and Amazon bestseller. She still has to chop wood and carry water, which was buried in the fine print. Her lawyer is working it out with God but in the meantime, if you call and she doesn’t pick up, she’s at the well, hauling buckets.

Born in New York City, she moved to Hollywood, California to get her master’s degree in screenwriting from USC. In case you want to know, that went nowhere, but it did embed TV story structure in her head well enough for her to take a big risk on a TV series structured erotic series called Songs of Submission. It’s about a kinky billionaire hung up on his ex-wife, an ingenue singer with a wisecracking mouth; art, music and sin in the city of Los Angeles.

Critics have dubbed the books “poetic,” “literary,” and “hauntingly atmospheric,” which is flattering enough for her to put it in a bio, but embarrassing enough for her not to tell her husband, or he might think she’s some sort of braggart who’s too good to give the toilets a once-over every couple of weeks or chop a cord of wood.

If you meet her in person, you should call her Christine.

Title: Haunted A Romantic Suspense

(Book Two in The Shattered Pieces Series)

by Kiara Delaney

Genre: Romantic Suspense

Publication Date: December 30, 2015

When Devon Bradford entered Nina Petrov’s life, she was broken and alone. He did everything in his power to tear down her defenses, refusing to let her push him away. In the end, it just wasn’t enough. Nina had backed him into a corner, and he ended up doing the very thing he promised Nina he would never do- leave her, just as all the other men had done to her before. By the time Nina’s secrets had finally come to light, Devon had already vanished- she left him with no other choice. In the end, she was forced to make the decision between letting the memory of him consume her, or vanquishing him from her mind forever.

Devon had abandoned Nina in her darkest hour, in what seemed like a lifetime ago. It had shredded her heart, and left her questioning her sanity. The day he’d left her, she’d buried a part of herself, but the memories of him continued to haunt her, leaving her feeling unsure about everything she thought she once knew.

It has been eighteen months since Devon Bradford disappeared from Nina’s life, but she’s worked hard to dispel the demons that once plagued her. One day at a time, she becomes one step closer to leaving her past behind and moving forward. That is, until one fateful day, Devon is hurled back into Nina’s life, and her reality will be forever changed.

As Nina finds herself chained once more to the ghosts of her past, she realizes Devon holds the key to her future. Can Nina really trust Devon this time, or will he leave her to pick up the shattered pieces of her life once more?

Find out in the shocking conclusion of The Shattered Pieces Series!

“So this is how it’s going to be between us?” I ask.

Nina stalks towards me, her lips quirking up, and runs her finger from my chest to my lower abdomen as she says, “You mean, we piss each other off all day while secretly wanting to fuck each other?”

I halt her hand a second before she reaches for my belt buckle and grab her by her upper arms, pulling her in close as I trace my lips against her quickening pulse in her throat. I murmur low and seductively, “I guess it’s not a secret, after all, then, is it Miss Petrov?” She pulls back to gaze at me, wide-eyed and speechless. Looks like the cat’s out of the bag. I think I can safely say I won this round.

Alasdair

 

Blurb:

A DANGEROUS ALLURE

Bestowed with eternal life by the Ancient Vasilios, Alasdair Kyriakous is one of the most feared and ruthless vampires in existence. His name carries weight across all of the seven continents.

But he is a mystery to his kind, an anomaly among the self-indulgent. While he enjoys the pleasures of the flesh, he is exceptionally particular in his choice of partners and prides himself on his ironclad self-control.

Yet with one look his control will become a thing of the past, and Alasdair will discover that eternal life doesn’t always last forever…

A DEADLY ATTRACTION

Thrust into a world he could never have imagined, Leo Chapel awakens in his worst nightmare. Taken hostage by the dangerously mesmerizing vampire, Alasdair, Leo must rely on his intelligence to escape before he reveals a secret he isn’t even aware he’s hiding.

A FORBIDDEN DESIRE

Unaware that they’ve been brought together by an outside force and are little more than pawns to a higher power, Alasdair and Leo spend time trying to uncover the other’s secrets, the attraction between them growing stronger all the while.

But enemies are watching and preparing to act against them.  When decisions that will alter lives and destinies have to be made—can a dead, grey heart learn to beat again?

I wanted a change from what I had been reading and decided to go with the time of year it is, where everyone is looking for the dark and mysterious. This is the second read from Ella Franks I have taken on as an ARC and have to say that I am yet to be disappointed.

Alasdair is the sire of one of the accident known as Vasilios. Alasdair is fear by many because of his ruthlessness and fearless outlook on things.

Alasdair is extremely choosey when it comes to who he is with even though he has so trouble with enjoying the flesh. Then one night his is drawn to Leo, not able to let the attraction to him go, Alasdair begins the hunt.  Alasdair having desire that he has never felt before knowing this is desire that is forbidden. He refuses to give up till he has a taste of what he wants. Even though the taste he carves could take his life.

You talk about one very hot book. So many alpha’s and so much sexual tension this book is a must read. Alasdair alone will light this book on fire, one minute you’re going to be in love with him and the next you’re going to want to rip his head off. Leo is the history geek that you just have to love and want to protect. Just as you think that Alasdair and Leo will get their chance something or someone is put in their path. Yes there is a cliffhanger that is so well placed you will be screaming that it can’t stop there. This is one read that is going to be place on my favorites for the year!! Looking forward to the next chapter in this story.

Excerpt:

“Why won’t you just leave me alone?” he finally asked as Alasdair came to a standstill by the kitchen table. “First, you terrorize me, then you kidnap me, and now, you’re hell-bent on destroying my life. If this is your version of playing with your food, I think you’ve taken it far enough.”

Alasdair’s brow rose as he studied him. “Haven’t you awoken in a particularly spirited mood? Thanos was right. I like it,” he said, his tone dropping a few octaves. “It’s more fitting of you.”

“You know nothing about me. And I’m positive you care even less,” he grit out, his anger rising inside him now as he bravely stepped closer. “Why haven’t you killed me? I don’t get what your deal is. Are you bored? Defective? Or something else I haven’t thought of?”

The words fell off his tongue and hovered in the air between them like a provocative dare. He wasn’t sure how Alasdair would react, but before he could continue, he was crushed back against the sink. His hands were trapped behind his back, and the counter dug into his hips as Alasdair held him in place.

“I assure you I am certainly not defective. And you should stop talking. Your words, they will get you—”

“What, killed? You said you liked my newfound spirit. Now, all of a sudden, you don’t?”

“We vampires, we’re fickle creatures. We change our minds every split second,” Alasdair said. “And right now, I’d prefer you to shut your mouth. Or I’ll do it for you. Permanently.”

Title: Bastard

Genre: YA/NA

Blurb

My name is Carter Reynolds. I was born a bastard and I’ll die a bastard. I learnt it at a young age, and nothing and nobody can change that. I’m on a one-way path of destruction, and god help anyone who gets in my way. I hate my life. Actually, I hate pretty much everything.

That’s until I meet the kid next door. Indi-freakin’-ana. My dislike for her is instant. From the moment I lay eyes on her, she ignites something within me. She makes me feel things I thought I was incapable of feeling. I don’t like it, not one bit. When she looks at me with her big, beautiful, haunting, green eyes, it’s like she can see into the depths of my soul. It freaks me the hell out. She’s like sunshine and rainbows in my world of gloom and doom. I hate sunshine and rainbows.

********

I’m Indiana Montgomery, my friends call me Indi. Despite losing my mum at the age of six, I have a wonderful life and great friends. My dad more than makes up for the fact that I only have one parent. I’m his little girl, the centre of his world. I adore him.

When Carter Reynolds moves in next door, my life takes a turn for the worse. He’s gorgeous—sinfully hot, but that’s where my compliments end. He seems hell bent on making my life miserable. He acts tough, but when I look into his eyes I don’t see it. I see hurt and pain. To me, he seems lost.

I should hate him for the way he treats me, but surprisingly I don’t. If anything, I feel sorry for him. I want to help him find peace. Help him find the light that I know is buried somewhere within his darkness, but, he won’t have a bar of it.

He’s warned me time and time again to stay away, but I can’t. I’m drawn to him for some reason. He’s always referring to himself as a bastard. That may be true, but to me, he’s more like a beautifully, misunderstood bastard. Whether he likes it or not, I refuse to give up on him.

Excerpt

 

Leaning forward, so my face is only inches from hers, I say, “I can see that.” Her pupils dilate and I hear her breath hitch. I immediately know my effect on her hasn’t diminished either. It takes everything in me not to pull her into my arms and squeeze the fucking life out of her. Why did I leave it so long to see her? Just being near her again, makes me feel alive. “It’s good to see you again, Indi.”

“Well, the feeling’s not mutual,” she says. She’s lying, I can tell. Her body language is saying the complete opposite to her words. She’s still a stubborn arse I see. My eyes leave hers, gazing down at her lips. I can’t tell you how many times I’ve dreamt of those lips over the past five years. Too many to count. I want to kiss her so bad my fucking chest aches. I let my eyes drop a little lower. First I see is the necklace I bought her. I can’t believe she’s still wearing it. It has me smiling like a damn fool. You have no idea what seeing that means to me.

I watch her chest rise and fall as her breathing quickens. She can deny it all she wants, but she’s affected by me. “My eyes are up here, buddy,” she spits. I want to laugh at her comment. I love her smart mouth. I’m glad this part of our relationship hasn’t changed.

Underneath the material of her white top, I can see a hint of her white lace bra covering the swell of her breast. It gives me an idea. I can’t help myself. I lift the sponge in my hand until it’s hovering over her tits. I hear her gasp when she realises what I’m about to do. I clench my fist tight, the water drips out. It soaks into the fabric of her top, making it transparent. Her nipples harden and so does my cock. Christ. I haven’t even touched her yet, and I swear I could break diamonds with this fucker.

Peeling my gaze from her spectacular rack, I make eye contact with her again. I’m feeling quite pleased with myself, but that feeling doesn’t last long. The anger I see in her eyes is not what I’m expecting. When did she lose her sense of humour? I guess I should’ve known from past experience, when it comes to her, I’m playing with fire. Especially since she has five years of pent up anger inside her, towards me.

This is one time I’m not anticipating her next move. So when it comes, I’m totally taken by surprise. She raises her right leg slightly, and then ‘BOOM’. She knees me fair smack in the nuts. Hard. Jesus fucking Christ.

All the air gushes from my lungs as pain radiates through my whole body. My dick goes instantly limp. Fuck, I think she just killed it. I’m pretty sure my boys are now lodged somewhere in my throat.

A feral, high pitched sound escapes me as I fall to my knees in agony. “Stay the fuck away from me arsehole,” she spits, as she turns and runs inside.

Somebody call an ambulance, I think I’m gonna die.

EXCERPT
Once we
were alone on our way to school, she glanced down at our joined hands and then
back up at me. Her wide smile and bright eyes told me she was feeling the same
warm feelings I was.
“Hey,
boyfriend,” she said as she gave my hand a squeeze.
The
shit-eating grin lifted my cheeks again. “Hi yourself, girlfriend.”
“We
probably shouldn’t play hooky today, should we?” Without releasing my hand, she
sped up a little before turning to walk backwards so that she could meet my
eyes.
I
thought about the day we could have if we did and ached to say yes. “We
probably shouldn’t. It’s probably a better idea to prove we’re going to be
responsible even if we’re a couple.”
“Hmm,
couple. I like the sound of it.” She turned around again, resting her head
against my arm as we walked.
I
dropped her hand and wrapped my arm around her shoulders.
“Maybe
we can still be responsible if we’re a little late though?” she asked.
“Maybe.
Why? What do you have in mind?”
She
dragged me in the direction of the park where we’d played cards the day
before—the park which had been “ours” for as long as I could remember and where
everything had changed.
“Well,
our first date was cut a little short, don’t you think?”
The
ghost of her lips tracing over mine filled my mind, together with the memory of
her tongue tangling with my own.
“Definitely,”
I said, unable to keep the lust and desire from my voice.
We
walked in silence until we arrived at our park. Without any verbal agreement,
we made our way toward the table we’d claimed as our spot years earlier.
Alyssa
sat on the bench and I took my usual place perched behind her on the table. I
placed my legs on either side of her body and leaned my chin on the top of her
head. It was a position we’d sat in hundreds of times before as we chatted
about anything and everything. Only, this time it was different. Neither of us
spoke, which had never really happened before. The silence around us was almost
maddening; the only sound, our matching breaths.
“So—”
we both said at the same time, before stopping at the same time.
“You
go—” Again our voices were almost perfectly in sync.
I
chuckled as she turned around and knelt on the bench to look at me. I helped
her up onto the table beside me and just looked at her for a moment. Her lips
called to me, and I wanted to kiss her, longed to with every part of me, but I
didn’t know if I should. I didn’t want kissing to be the only thing we had.
There was so much more that I liked about her and none of those things had
changed. Yet it was still different. Everything was different.
“Don’t
hate me for asking, but is this weird as hell for you too?” she asked.
My
relief that I wasn’t the only one who was feeling the new, odd atmosphere
surrounding us escaped in a quiet laugh. “So
weird.”
“It
shouldn’t be though, should it?”
“No. I
mean, we’re still us, right?”
She
practically leapt in place. “Right!”
“We’re
still friends,” I added. “We always will be.”
“Exactly.
We’re just friends that kiss now.”
As she
said the words, my gaze was drawn to her bright pink lip gloss. I licked my
lips. “Friends that kiss a lot?”
“If
you’re lucky.”
I
trailed my hands into her hair, drawing her face slowly closer to mine. “Am I?”
“I
don’t know,” she whispered. Her lips were so close to mine that I could feel
her breath on my skin. “I’m starting to think that maybe I’m the lucky one.”

Synopsis

Keegan was my world since I was six years old. When he walked out of my life, I was certain I would never see him again. He broke my heart, but truthfully I only have myself to blame. Now I’m looking into his incredibly beautiful blue eyes. He came back into my life as quickly as he left. Both of us have changed over the years, but I can’t imagine living another day without him.

My name is Aimee, and this is the story of how I lost and found my best friend and love of my life. The journey may be tough but there is no denying that Keegan, and I were destined to be together. He rescued me the day we met and had always been my prince charming. One thing I’m sure of, I’m not letting my happily ever after get away this time.

Excerpt

I close my eyes while he opens the door then slowly leads me into the space, the anticipation of what he’s going to show me making me feel like I’m floating on air.

We move around something, and then he lets go of my hand and walks away for a second, moving something around. Both of his hands then touch my hips, and I’m guided down to sit on his lap.

“Keegan,” I yelp, the action having surprised me.

“I’m going to count to five, Aimee, and then you can open those beautiful eyes.” His deep and commanding voice starts counting, “One … two … three … four … five.”

My eyes remain tightly shut as I feel his beating heart against my back, matching mine.

He laughs and puts both arms around me, holding me close with his chin on my shoulder, and I can feel his breath on my neck. I suddenly break out in goose bumps.

“It’s okay. Open them,” he whispers in my ear.

I slowly open my eyes, seeing we are sitting directly in front of his expansive window. The scene in front of me is one of beauty. I am facing the New York sky, the stars twinkling above and lights of different colors below us. I can see everything for miles, the entire city. It’s the most amazing view I have ever seen. The buildings and sky fit together like the perfect puzzle. The view at night is more glorious than I ever imagined, just as Keegan mentioned during his interview.

“This is … just … no words, Keegan.” Although him sharing this with me makes me feel something in my heart, I can’t find the words to describe it.

He holds me a little tighter. “I know. You don’t have to say anything.”

“Thank you for showing this to me,” I whisper.

“You’re welcome,” He replies in another whisper.

“No, really, thank you. I could sit here all night, looking at this.” I tell him, imagining how beautiful this scene would be watching the sun rise. Of course, what would make it special is watching it together.

“I have actually looked out these windows and watched the city all night.”

“By yourself?” I ask.

“I’ve never shared this with anyone until now.”

“Really?”

“Yes. As if I would even want to be here with anyone else.”

I melt into him. How could this man be any more perfect?
