About this author

CJ Roberts is an independent writer. She favors dark and erotic stories with taboo twists and her work has been called both sexy and disturbing in the same sentence.

She was born and raised in Southern California. Following high school, she joined the U.S. Air Force in 1998, served ten years and traveled the world. Her favorite part of traveling is seeking out the seedy underbelly of the city.

She is married to an amazing and talented man who never stops impressing her; they have one beautiful daughter.

Her debut novel, Captive in the Dark (The Dark Duet, Book 1), is available in ebook and paperback. And will be followed up with Seduced in the Dark (The Dark Duet, Book 2) in September of 2012.

She writes short stories under the name Jennife...more

It will be on Amazon, Smashwords, and B&N on the 15th. The rest of the channels will have to aggregate from Smashwords and can a while. :/ The good news is, you can use the epub from Smashwords to read on your ipad etc.

Amy Johnson Thanks for friending me! I just wanted to tell you that YOU. ARE. THE. BOMB. Love your books!!!


Marilina It would be perfect if the Epilogue turned out to be more than 100 pages. I actualy live with that hope.. so even though i really, really, really want it like right now, i don't mind if it takes a while. Just KEEP WRITING..

Jxxx Thanks for the friendship! :) I finished your books, CITD & SITD last week and still find myself thinking about them. The characters and the story draw you in; it is dark, gritty and uncomfortable but just so fabulously written. I love stories that make you feel strong emotions and yours certainly did that. Sorry to gush! lol, but it's the truth! I can't wait to read the Epilogue and the Dark Duet Spin off! I'm sure we're all in for another treat! :)

I will confess that I am currently in the process of writing a 100pg novella entitled, Epilogue: The Dark Duet. I'm very excited about it and I hope to have it out soon.

I still plan to write a full-length novel about Agent Reed this year. :)

Pairee Thank you for the add. I can honestly say that I have never read a book in my life that has affected me the way this series has. It just will not leave my brain.
I felt as if I was living everything right alongside Caleb and Livvie. I will read anything you ever write. I promise you I'm not even joking one bit about that. :D

I am so in love with your books. I can't get Caleb and Livvie out of my head. I haven't read a book that good in a long time. Your characters haunt me daily. And I'm glad.

Hope to read more by you soon!


message 38: by Darcey

Sarah I voted for your books in the Goodreads choice awards 2012 but it would not let me. I just want you to know that your books would be my first choice in the Romance and Goodreads Author categories. Your Captive in the Dark series was very powerful and I am still thinking about it months after finishing it.


Sandovita :( Why on earth can't I vote for you here? :(
http://www.goodreads.com/award/choice...

It says this: "That book is ineligible. Please try again! has no original publication year set."

:( I think you deserve to win something...

message 27: by C.J.

C.J. Roberts Hi Dani and Mixhi,
Thanks for the Agent Reed love! He's in his early 30's, so this one will be a bit older. I'm aiming for Dark, but less ethically challenging, LOL. Hope you love it when it comes out.

Thank you, Amanda! I can't even tell you how much all this has affected me. The very idea that I've changed the way someone views the world is THE biggest compliment one can give an author.

The Dark Duet was a labor of love and while I don't know if I have it in me to create another book that will live up to it, I know this...I am sure as hell gonna try.

Thank you,
CJ

Amanda Panda *Book Drunk Stupor* First of C.J. thank you for the add. Forgive me but HOLY F-BOMB!!!! SEDUCED IN THE DARK was FLIPPIN AMAZING!!!!! I would like to just say I have read at least 100+ books this year and SEDUCED has got to be my favorite by a huge landslide. Wow, just holy Wow! You are totally fabulous and the fact that you are an author that does not submit to "safe topics" makes me love you that much more. Your duet goes beyond comfort zones, reaches into your audience, rips out their insides and shoves them back in. Lol (raw discription lol) You make us all re-think everthing we know and leaves us in a whirlwind stunned stuper. I am on a severe book high and the only negative I have C.J is that the ride had to end. :-( You are an author that I can't wait to see what the future has in store for you. Bravo!


JennBishop i still have not read the second book but first i must say that one i devoured this book in 1 day, and than i have read it 2 more times since than! i can not wait to read the second book. and you are brilliant, just brilliant.


message 14: by Diana

Diana I can't believe how intense the Dark Duet is! I just finished Seduced in the Dark and I can't get it out of my mind. I'm experiencing that depression you feel when a book or a series is done, but you're just not done with the characters. You can't help but want to know more about their lives, their future. Ugh! I find myself going back and rereading some parts because I can't let it go. The true test of great books! Thank you, and I hope to hear more about Caleb/James and Livvie/Sophia. Anything would be good!
