Spotlight Author of the Week: BB Reid

 
B.B., ALSO KNOWN as Bebe, found her passion for romance when she read her first romance novel by Susan Johnson at a young age. She would sneak into her mother's closet for books and even sometimes the attic. It soon became a hobby, and later an addiction, influencing her life in a positive way.

Bebe is fresh out of undergrad college and has always wondered about the existence of her talent. When she finally decided to pick up a metaphorical pen and start writing, she found a new way to embrace her passion.

She favors a romance that isn't always easy on the eyes or heart, and loves to see characters grow--characters who are seemingly doomed from the start but find love anyway.

Fear Me, her debut novel, is the first of many.
 
 

This isn't another "I hate you because I secretly love you" story... boy really does hate girl. And this isn't just a forbidden love story. This is obsession at its darkest.
I don't believe in fairy tales and Prince Charming.

I believe in fear.

He taught me how to be afraid.

We first met on a playground on a wonderful summer day. It was the first time he hurt me and it wouldn't be the last. For ten years, he's been my tormentor and I've been his forbidden. But then he went away, and yet I was still afraid.

Now he's back and wants more than just my tears. You see...he thinks I sent him away so now he wants revenge...and he knows just how to get it.

PLEASE READ THE WARNINGS: This book is a new adult and contains rough elements such as harsh language, mild violence, strong sexual content, alpha male, antihero, blackmail, and dubious consent.

Fear Me, in all, contains sensitive themes many people aren't able to swallow.

 

What happens when she's had enough?
Lake Monroe has given in to her childhood tormentor too many times. She knows it, he knows it, and even their enemies know it. When he returned after being found guilty of a crime he didn't commit--a crime he thought she set him up for, he returned darker than ever, demanding her body and her submission. To survive him, she knew she had to give in to fear once more or suffer the deadly consequences...

But Lake experienced what it was like to submit to the dark and demanding boy who invaded her dreams. Now she'll experience what it's like to fight him.
What happens when he wants more?
Keiran Masters has a past that is both shocking and dark. Once enslaved, he now has demons he can't escape--demons that have followed him for ten years, demons he blames his beautiful obsession for. He promised to make her pay. He promised to make her break...

But after Keiran had conquered her body and tasted her submission, he found a new addiction instead--one he has no intention of giving up.

As secrets unfold,

Identities are revealed,

Danger closes in,

And they both discover what it really means to
fear...




KEENAN
It's been four years since I ran away--from home, my brother, and my maybe father. I created a life free of expectations while pretending I wasn't being hunted by all of the above. I managed to stay under the radar all this time... or so I thought. When big brother shows up and saves my ass, I'm forced to face everything I left behind, including her.

SHELDON
It's been four years since I became another statistic. I made a lot of mistakes when it came to Keenan Masters. The first was loving him at all. He took something from me the night he left, and when I told him I still loved him, he told me he'd always hate me. After that, I learned how to be okay... until he came back. Gone was the boy who always knew how to make me laugh, and in his place was a cold, arrogant monster.

She’s the girl who got away, but now she’s back…

Four years was all it took.
I told myself I didn’t need friends. I didn’t need family. I sure as fuck didn’t need him.
And you know what?
I was right.
He had been inside of me, coursing through my veins.
So I cut and bled Dash Chambers until I was free.
But the day I returned to Six Forks and was thrown at his feet, I realized I would never forget how it felt to have every inch of him inside me.

...and he’s waiting.
Angel thought if she ran far enough, she’d be free.
What’s mine will always be mine.
This time I do things my way.

Excerpt

“What the fuck?” Drew asks as Baby guides her out the door.
“Don’t bust my balls Drew, I just gotta get you home.” He explains to her and to her credit, she just and does as he says.
“Alright!” Elise shouts. “You don’t have to pull me so hard!”
Scrappy is literally pulling Elise out the door. “Come on! I gotta get you to dads!”
She quickly sends us a wave before being dragged out the door. None of us like this, but we know they’re doing it for our own good.
I’ve known for a few days that’s something’s not been right and this crap just proves I was right. It’s all very odd and Devlin hasn’t even approached me yet. No, he’s too busy making sure all the doors and windows are shut and locked tight.
Lauren comes to sit beside me as we watch Devlin, knowing that something serious has definitely happened.
There’s a knock and Lauren gets up to answer but Devlin stops her is a stern quiet voice. “Go and sit down.”
Shocked, Lauren does as he says and returns to her seat next to me. “What the fuck.” She whispers.
Devlin walks up to the door. “Who is it?”
As he looks through the peep hole we hear Grim. “It’s me.”
Devlin lets him in and Grim shakes his head, not looking happy. They make sure the security cameras are on and the gates are locked at the bottom of the garden.
“This is ridiculous.” I watch as they make their way back inside the house.
“I’m guessing Franky didn’t have good news.” Lauren adds quietly as the men walk towards us.
“Right girls, I think you two should get some sleep.” Grim suggests and I almost laugh.
“Sleep?” Lauren asks and Grim nods. “I’m not a child.”
“I wasn’t saying that, but considering what is happening I need you to go to bed.” Grim is on edge, I can tell. His senses are alive, just looking for anything out of place.
Lauren sighs, giving in. “Fine.”
“You too.” Devlin looks at me.
“Oh, you’re ready to talk now?” I cross my arms and glare up at him.
“No, not really so you need to get upstairs.” Devlin answers.
“What?” I shout.
“I didn’t mean it like that. I need to see to business but you two have to be upstairs.” He insists.
“Come on Tash!” Lauren calls as she frowns at Grim. “Let’s just go.”
I don’t even look at Devlin as I stand and pass him. When we begin to walk up the steps, we look behind us to see that Devlin and Grim are following us up! So first they tell us to go to bed and now they’re escorting us! What the fuck is up?

Review of When Day Breaks (KGI #9) by Maya Banks


The Kelly Group International (KGI): A super-elite, top secret, family-run business.

Qualifications: High intelligence, rock-hard body, military background.
Mission: Hostage/kidnap victim recovery. Intelligence gathering. Handling jobs the U.S. government can’t…

Eden is said to be one of the most beautiful women in the world. Her face has graced countless magazines and her body has sold millions of dollars of clothing. But her fame and beauty has earned her more than she ever imagined. Evil is stalking her, determined to extinguish the ethereal beauty forever.

Swanson or “Swanny” as his teammates call him is always up for the next mission. He came back from Afghanistan wounded and scarred. Hardly the kind of man who even belongs in the same room with Eden. And yet there’s something about the quiet beauty that stirs his blood and makes him dream of the impossible. Because Beauty loving the beast only happens in fairy tales and KGI doesn’t deal in fairy tales. Ever. 





Overall Rating: 4.5 Rockin’ ★★★★☆

Beauty and the Beast have nothing on Swanny and Eden in book 9 of Maya Banks KGI series, When Day Breaks.  She rocks her readers as always with a steamy action filled romance that is highlighted with military maneuvers that save the day.  The characters and mission are developed in the way in which the Kelly group reacts and behaves when they are called on to save the world.  They are exciting and riveting and leave the reader gasping for breath and rooting for the KGI home team.  The characters are beautifully crafted in a way that any reader can relate too and love.

Daryl "Swanny" Swanson has become an integral part of the KGI family.  He has his own demons to battle with from his capture and captivity in the Afghani Mountains while he served with an elite military group.  Swanny is scarred physically and mentally.  But being a part of the KGI family and a member of one of their teams, has given him new purpose and a new found reason to live.  However, on the latest mission, Swanny is thrust into a situation that he never expected.  He has caught the attention of the team's newest mission, Eden Sinclair.  And Eden wants more than Swanny ever thought possible.  Will he be able to complete what's required of him on this mission, as well as capture Eden’s heart, while saving her? Is he her Beast?

Eden Sinclair is labeled as the most beautiful woman in the world.  She's a top model and her career is very important to her.  Although, she's beautiful on the outside, Eden is a genuine person who loves with her whole heart.  And her heart is set on Daryl "Swanny" Swanson from the moment she laid eyes on him.  Eden knew that Swanny was a member of her brother's unit during his time in Afghanistan, but she never knew that she would feel so much from just one look. Her beast maybe scarred on the outside, but he is a beautiful prince underneath!

This book was filled with adventure, passion and an unrelenting theme of family, loyalty and honor.  Every one of Maya Bank's KGI books is nothing short of awesomeness.  She has a way of drawing the reader in and keeping them held captive until the very end.  This book and series would be a great addition to anyone’s library!

Congrats & Happy Release to SL Scott! Until I Met You is Live!







Their love burned bright, white hot, and strikingly blue around the edges.
Some thought them careless.
Some thought them crazy.
No one approved.
Taylor Barrett was looking for answers in a universe that had abandoned him.
Jude Boehler flooded her dark world with charisma and mystery, drawing everyone into her hurricane.
It was a most captivating of love affairs. They were shooting stars, meteors in the sky, colliding to create a spectacularly wonderful reckless romance, leaving them breathless and tethered.
But that’s what Love does.
Their souls were exposed to the chaos, bare and vulnerable. Can these two star-crossed lovers survive the madness that is life?











EXCERPT


Entering his building made her feet lighter. She was being carried on the wings of euphoria, each step easier than the last. She wasn’t walking to her future. She was running toward it. Taking a breath, she held it, and knocked on his door.

The door opened and he stood there with his lips parted and confusion furrowing his brow. “Jude?”

Throwing herself forward, she jumped up and wrapped her body around his and kissed him. Then again. He kicked the door closed and held her against it. When they parted, they remained close enough to share their panting breaths. He said, “You’re here.” When he pressed his abs against her center her head knocked hard on the wood and he kissed the exposed skin of her neck where it met her shoulder.

He was strong. He was virile. “Hey,” she said, bringing his face up to see hers.

Lowering her down until her feet touched, he said, “I thought we were meeting at the park?”

“I couldn’t wait.”

His glorious smile chose to shine on her. “I’m glad you didn’t. Do you want to go to the bedroom?”

Giggling, she replied, “Yes, so much, but I need to talk to you first.”

“Okay.” He walked to the couch and she stared gob-smacked by his allure. Jeans that hung low. No shirt. Boxers peeking out the top, but a V that directed her eyes below the waistband. He was a tease as he stood there waiting for her to join him. Sitting on the couch, he patted it. “C’mere.”

She started walking on shaky legs. As she passed the bar, she debated if she should stay there to save her clarity. That seat next to him was tempting, but she knew she’d be flat on her back within seconds. So she hurried to his side and sat down. His hands were instantly on her. 



















S.L. Scott is a former high-tech account manager with a journalism degree pursuing her passion for telling stories. She spends her days escaping into her characters and letting them lead her on their adventures. 

Live music shows, harvesting jalapenos and eating homemade guacamole are her obsessions she calls hobbies.

Scott lives in the beautiful Texas hill country of Austin with her husband, two young sons, two Papillons and a bowl full of Sea Monkeys. 

Her novels include Naturally, Charlie, Good Vibrations, and A Prior Engagement.

#NewRelease Love Thyself by Layla Stevens

Love Thyself (by Layla Stevens)
Thank you for your interest in helping spread the word about my book, Love Thyself! The ebook, a depiction of the internal struggle many LGBTQQ individuals deal with, was made available October 10, 2015. I am available for guest posts, interviews, features, and reviews for the Blog Tour on a request-basis.  
This book is intended for anyone who has ever felt like someone different, knows someone who is of the LGBTQQ community, or simply is open to a good, quality read.  This book is very graphic in nature and deals with other topics as well such as child trafficking.
About the Book: Warning: This book is graphic in nature. 18+ is advised. Have you ever felt like you were different, like you didn't belong? Kellie Kingston knows that feeling all too well. She’s not who she pretends to be, instead from the inside out, Kellie is actually Kaleb. For years, Kaleb has wanted to break free from the reins of Kellie’s lifestyle. He knows he was born in a female’s body, but with a soul of a man. What happens when skeletons are forced to be kept in dirty closets? No one should judge a person by the gender of their body, but the passions found within their heart. Will the people of Kaleb’s community ever be able to accept him for who he really is? Will Kaleb ever be free to truly love himself or will southern socialite secrets keep him hidden forever?
About the Author:
I was born in Tulsa, Oklahoma but moved to Pensacola, Florida in 1996. I have a huge family who I shocked them when I told them I was writing my first book. I have had a love a reading since I was young. Reading has always been my escape. I can read and be a princess or a warrior. Reading for me was always something magical. And I hope to pass that on to you all. I am blessed to be the mom of a little girl named Sage who is the light of my life. {I call her Olga, and she hates it} I did not give birth to her but I choose her. I am blessed with great friends who have always had my back. I have a lot to learn in this world of writing but, so far I am enjoying the ride. I have a fantastic Four that are my true loves. No names will be mentioned as they know who they are. I Love you all very much. {I didn't included alters in that comment}. I'm very opinionated and have no filter. I speak my mind without thinking of the consequences. Does this get me in Trouble? Yes it does every single day. But I will not change. I march to my own beat. My mom says that I can be a one man band.  I am always willing to help out anyone who is in need all you have to do is ask. I never knew that writing a book would show me so much about myself. I have learned so much in a short amount of time. And I can't wait to learn more.



Reviews:
I was gifted the ARC of Love Thyself by Layla Stevens. First off let me say that Layla stepped out of her comfort zone on this book.
This book talks about several topics that have touched many lives from transgender issues, sex trafficking, bullying, abuse, murder, child trafficking, and lies. I could not put this book down, I felt like I was Kellie when it came to some issues. Despite how you feel about this type of book, this is a must read.
Kellie is a teenager that has tried several times to tell her mother that she was born into the wrong body. Kellie takes her pain out on her body in several different ways. After Kellie comes out to her parents, things have taken a dramatic turn. Kellie learns about some secrets that her parents have.http://www.amazon.com/review/R1UI3XV1FYSHEY/ref=cm_cr_dp_title?ie=UTF8&ASIN=1517736846&channel=detail-glance&nodeID=283155&store=books
