EXCERPT FROM BRIAN’S CALL

“Well, hello there, beautiful. My apologies for staring, but looking at you makes me tongue tied and stupefied.” Hounder leaned in to kiss her hand.

Isabelle rolled her beautiful, crystal blue eyes and almost missed the woman’s response. The woman spin-chopped Hounder’s chest then pressed her leg into his groin as she pushed him into a wall.

“Hello there, handsome. I’m Lieutenant Commander Wellsie Sharp and if you’re working here then you and I will be working together. One thing you should know is that the men I lay with know how to follow orders while still being a man. If you want this, then you need to prove to me that you can be that man, big boy. All this sexy won’t—I do mean won’t—settle for less. Sergeant Major Wallace, I’ll see you in twenty. Have fun boys and lady.”

Wellsie Sharp was the owner of that jasmine oil scent. Her creamy, caramel brown skin and dark brown eyes shined with a softness only she could carry off. Her dark brown, loose curls were wild on this day and fell around her shoulders. Her petite, but well-filled-out frame caused men to underestimate her strength. It was something she used to her advantage on a regular basis. She had assets that filled her out in all of the right places. He was a guy. He wouldn’t be that one if he didn’t notice. Brian began to inform the only other male in the room who didn’t know who she was just who the woman was that had hemmed him up.

“Staff Sergeant Madison, you’ve just met the latest addition to the crew and …”

“The woman that is about to set my life right. I cannot believe she’s been walking the face of the earth and I didn’t know it.”

“Cool your jets there, Tommy. I think we need to discuss the rules of the office.”

“Cut the shit, B. There are no rules. It’s been no-holds-barred, dick-swinging-meets-battle-royale around these parts. You just brought puss one and dangled it like a doggy treat in front of a horny, rabid dog. This shit’s not going to be pulled back any time soon. You might as well step out of the way and let the chips fall where they may. Tell me I can’t go after that and you are just going to make it worse. Let it ride, B.”

“For your simple brain to come up with all of those metaphors, you must really want it. Have at it. I’ll be here with the vacuum to Hoover up the pieces of your carcass when she’s done with you.”

“Man, I don’t give a damn. As long as I can say that I tried.”

#EllieKeys Dirty Girl Duet by Megan March (Double Cover Reveal)

 

We are excited to bring to you the two books in the Dirty Girl Duet by Meghan March.

Dirty Girl will release on May 17 and Dirty Love on May 31.

 

 

 

Desperately seeking rich, famous, single guy with a giant cock to make my lying, cheating, should’ve-been-born-dickless ex-boyfriend realize what he’s just lost.

Oh, and I give great head. Just sayin’.

 

No man in his right mind would answer that ad.

Except thousands did.

My name is Greer Karas, and I should never be allowed near another bottle of booze again. Because when I drink, my friend and I do stupid things. Like take a page out of my older brother Creighton’s playbook and post something completely asinine on the Internet. Waking up with a giant hangover to find my humiliating personal ad has gone viral is not my finest moment.

Cue my look of shock when one of Hollywood’s hottest new bad boys, Cavanaugh Westman, comes knocking at my door and drops his pants to prove that he does indeed have a giant cock.

What he doesn’t have is an explanation for why he disappeared from my life without a word three years ago, only to show up on the big screen two years later, killing bad guys in action flicks.

And now he wants me again.

What the hell do I do now?

Greer Karas has been mine since the first day I saw her.

I walked away because she deserved better than I could offer, but I always planned to come back and stake my claim when the time was right.

But true to form, Greer wasn’t willing to wait. She threw down a challenge, and I’m meeting her head-on.

I’m not walking away this time because sometimes you have to fight dirty for love.

#EllieKeys Advice to Dreamers – Author to Author/Dreamer

During the course of my 31 Days of Authors journey, I asked some of the authors to answer a bonus question. I found the responses to be enlightening and inspiring. I even provided a bit of my own. The responses could be applied to any individual that is aspiring to begin a new journey in their career or personal life. Here are the responses that I received, along with the question that I asked:  

What advice would you give an author questioning whether they should continue their writing journey?

My favorite quote is one from Audrey Hepburn: “Nothing’s impossible. The word itself says I’m Possible”

That pretty much sums it up. If you dream it, do it.  Seek out the help of fellow authors and above all….never say never.  I’m an optimist by heart, so I like to encourage people to chase those dreams.

                                                ~Jennifer Theriot

 Never let anyone tell you not to chase your dream. Learn as much as you can and put out the best book possible. There’s no magic trick to it. Just write, read, and keep on working.

                                                ~Chelle Bliss

I would say that everyone’s journey is different. I was writing stories for the joy of it before they sold. If I never sold another story I would still write because I create worlds I love to escape into. If you’re asking should you keep writing. . .then my answer is only if you feel driven to. If you’re asking if you should write as a career, I’d say—only if you can afford to.

                                                ~Ruth Cardello

I recently went through a stage where I was questioning whether I wanted to continue writing. Between soccer practice (two different teams), school (I’m a full time Psychology major), my domestic duties as a mother and wife, and my full time job, I didn’t have time. I had so much going on that I never stopped moving. This made me question my writing. At the time it was the expendable and non-reproductive aspect of my life. Sales were crap, I never had time to write, everything costs so much to produce the work. It was very overwhelming. I was ready to quit. And I know this is as cliché as it gets, but a few days after I decided I was done I had a dream. In my dream I was sitting next to Colleen Hoover and E.L. James. We were doing some sort of panel discussion and then I woke up. I decided if I was going to be one of the greats, I had to put out great work. Couldn’t do that while asleep, so I got up and got to it. Haven’t looked back. My advice is to pray on it and do what is best for you. You don’t have to publish to be a writer, and the biggest achievements started with nothing at all. Make your nothing into something that will impact the world.

                                                ~Tabetha Thompson

Write.  Just write.  Even if you don’t like what you’re writing, continue.  The story will evolve and you’ll make the not-so-good parts better when you edit.  It will all come together in the end.

                                                ~Jenna Galicki

F*** everyone else, write how you want to. Just like you love the type of story that you are writing, somewhere out there is a reader who is gonna love to read it. Giving up is not an option if the only thing you eat, sleep, and dream about is writing. One day the hard work, crying, and moments of doubt will pay off.

                                                ~Khai L. Bayne

There is no right or wrong answer to whether or not you should continue your journey.  Also, whatever choice you make can be changed.  I would say to ask yourself why you started writing, and then ask why you would quit.  The answers might give you insight to your true reasons.  Sometimes we begin to question because our creative well has run dry from overuse.  In those cases, a break to allow it to replenish is the answer.  This journey isn’t an easy one, but it should bring a measure of joy.  If it’s not, there’s probably a reason.  The amazing Jennifer Ashley told me once that if you’re not enjoying it, you’re writing the wrong thing.  She was 100% right.  Writing should be challenging, but it shouldn’t be torture.

                                                ~Erin Quinn

If you set your mind to it, then do it. As with any dream, it is going to take hard work, diligence, a thick skin, and perseverance to make it happen. No matter what, DON’T GIVE UP! Know your field, which means do as much research as you possibly can. I ask questions of other authors. We tend to be rather helpful, at least the majority of us are.

                                                ~Ellie Keys

#EllieKeys 31 Days of Authors+ – Ellie Keys (Giveaway)

Banner

I cannot put into words just how thrilled I am with how well this past month’s project turned out. I had interviews with some of the most amazing authors. They were fantastic and I appreciate every person that took a moment to answer the questions, offer up giveaways, and send me a “thank you.” I am planning on doing another series of posts like this again this year. I’ll have to check my calendar for a break in writing. 

Thank you to all of the new followers that have come along for the journey. I hope you’ve enjoyed this as much as I have. Now, I couldn’t do this series of interviews without responding to the questions myself. Here’s the crazy that is my interview:

EK – My message to all of the authors: Thank you so very much for being willing to sign up to do this interview. I’m thrilled to have the opportunity to get to know you, share your thoughts, and highlight your work.

EK:  What is your pen name?

1. Is it different from the name on your birth certificate?
2. How did you come up with your pen name?

Ellie Keys:  My pen name is Ellie Keys.  It is different from the name on my birth certificate. The name comes from a variation of my first and middle names. They are both nicknames that I put together. Ellen Lakeysha. Throughout my life, I’ve been called both of the names, so I figured I’d combine the two and there you have it.

EK:  Does your work fit into one genre? If not, tell us about it. If so, do the same.

Ellie Keys:  HA.  I always love when I am asked this question. I am an eclectic person and tend to enjoy all manner of things in my life. I have various tastes, so I have various genres to choose from. At the heart of all of my works, there is romance and family. I write fantasy and contemporary with some dabblings in erotica.

EK:   What is the title of your most recent or upcoming release?

Ellie Keys:  Reign Again is my upcoming release, amongst several others. I have an anthology that I am part of , as well as, a BDSM book entitled Mr. Black and Mr. White. 

EK:  What inspired this work?

Ellie Keys:  I will discuss Reign Again. It is the book that is the most close to an autobiography as one could get for the younger years of the book. I wanted to tell my story without telling my story. My life story isn’t done so I didn’t want to make this one completely about me. Reign Jeffries is based upon things I’ve seen in my life, but takes on an all together different theme as the story progresses.

EK:  What is your favorite thing about writing?

Ellie Keys: The storytelling is one of my favorite things. I love fresh and new ideas. The stories that unfold from those ideas are thrilling and the reason I’m so happy to be chosen to share them. 

EK: Now for the fun stuff …

EK:  What is your favorite snack while taking a much needed author break?

Ellie Keys:  I’m a salty/sweet kind of girl. I love this mix that I put together. In it, there are raisins, craisins (yogurt covered), peanuts, almonds and some plain M&Ms. It’s one of my favorite things to have. 

EK: What is one of the craziest things you’ve done in your life?

Ellie Keys:  I would have to say one of the craziest things I have done in my life was travelling to an unknown city to meet up with a guy that I’d met on the phone. I flew to another city and spent the weekend with him in his house. It’s a wonder I lived through that one. He could’ve been anybody. Sheesh.

EK:  The house is on fire, what are you grabbing if your family is safe and sound?

Ellie Keys:  I would have to say my laptop bag. My computer is stored there along with a back up of my recent works. Everything else is replaceable. (I have to say that I interviewed thirty plus authors and one of the most popular answers to this question would have to be their computer. What does that tell you? I thinks it speaks volumes.)

EK:  What is your “go to” movie, book, or show?

Ellie Keys:  My “go to” movie is Ever After. I’m a sucker for their version of the Cinderella story. Book: Pride and Prejudice, if I’m going with another author’s work. This book and movie is what inspired my first novel: Forbidden (my work). I’ve read both books several times. Show: Once Upon a Time or Scandal. Both are amazing and keep me tuned in every week. 

EK: Who is one of your favorite authors? Why?

Ellie Keys:  Maya Angelou would have to be my favorite. She was an inspiration. I started my writing as a poet first. 

EK: Bonus => Have you ever read a book that had you questioning why you were having such a reaction to fictional characters? What book was it?

Ellie Keys:  Yes, many books. I’m a hopeless romantic and find that I don’t like a book unless it takes me through the wringer. The last book I had a reaction to the characters was a book written by Lily White entitled Her Master’s Teacher. I didn’t know I could hate a character as much as I hated the “master” in that book. 

                            

Thank you, once again, all of the authors that took time out of their busy days to answer my questions. You are wonderful and most appreciated. Thanks to each of the new and older followers that read each of the posts. Now it’s time for a giveaway. 

For a chance to win, a signed paperback of either of the above shown books:

1. Take a moment to look: check out one of the author interviews from the 31 days of March. 
2. Choose one of them.
3. Comment below to tell me which author and what their favorite book, movie, or show is. 

That’s it! You’re entered to win and I’ll post the winner in one week! Happy reading! 🙂
