Jax's Book-Teaser!!
This will be the only teaser released for a long time. I don't want attention taken away from Rival. :)
Here you go:
“You’re afraid of yourself,” he said flatly. “Not me.”
Backed up, he looked down at me, all of the softness from his voice now gone. " And that’s why you’re gutless, K.C. Now I have to shower, and you need to leave.”
And he turned around and strode for the men’s locker room.
I shook my head.
He was wrong. I wasn't gutless. Why did he keep saying that?
I sniffled and cleared my throat, standing tall. “Maybe I just don’t want you,” I blurted out and damn near smiled when he spun around, looking surprised. “Maybe I just don’t want you, Jax. Did you ever consider there might be one woman in this world that doesn’t pant after you?”
And I breathed out a small laugh as I spun around and headed for the door.
But before I even reached the handle, an arm circled my waist, yanking me back into a warm body, and I gasped just as my hair was swiped to the side and a hot mouth was on my neck.
Everything fell apart. My knees buckled, but he held me tight as my eyes closed, and my neck fell to the side, inviting him in.
Oh, my God!
It felt so good. I couldn’t think. I couldn’t pull away. I couldn’t stop him. His mouth was like hot water pouring over me, creating a blanket of heat. His teeth grazed my skin, rough but not hard, and he slid his lips and teeth over the sensitive area under my ear, and I wasn’t sure if he was kissing me or getting ready to eat me.
He left short but deep kisses across my neck, at the base, and under my ear. His tongue flicked my ear lobe right before his other hand reached around and turned my chin to him.
And then his mouth was on mine. I moaned and gasped, probably sounding like I was in pain, but I couldn’t help it. The tornado between my legs made my skin tingle.
Jax’s tongue found mine, and I groaned into his mouth, inhaling his scent that reminded me of summer. Of sweet cotton candy on a Ferris Wheel and cool water on hot skin.
The heat, the wetness, the taste, everything was hard and fast as his lips worked mine.
Keeping the same arm around my waist, his other hand left my face and dove straight under my skirt and into my panties.
“Oh,” I whimpered a muffled groan into his mouth that still held me hostage. What was he doing? I needed to stop this!
But my eyes fluttered as his smooth fingers dipped into my center, swirling the wetness already there around my clit.
And then his mouth left mine, and he yanked me up off my feet and growled in my ear.
“You’re so wet for me, K.C.” His voice was hard and threatening. “You're gutless, helpless, and a fucking liar, too.”
And then he dropped me on my ass, and I fell to the mats, shaking with confusion.
All I heard behind me was a door open and close, and I knew I was alone.
Bringing a shaky hand to my mouth, I sucked in air like it was going out of style. “Holy shit."

NEW STAND ALONE NEWS!
***CORRUPT NEWS***
Tomorrow, a team of wonderful blogs and I will be releasing the beautiful CORRUPT cover and blurb! This story is an Erotica, so I'll be trying on a new hat for this one.
I certainly understand that not everyone likes erotica, so no worries. I know you have my back even if you don't read everything I put out there. I am simply grateful for any support I receive.
Right now, this book is a stand alone, and I'll be starting it IMMEDIATELY after Jax's book is finished. I am telling you to expect it in the spring of 2015, but it should be done much sooner. I'd rather surprise you with an early release than disappoint you with a delay, so I left myself wiggle room Thanks everyone for adding it to your TBR lists and for sharing the countdowns. Your faith in me makes me want to ALWAYS do my absolute best!

Jax's Book-Title Change and News
Book 4 (or Book 3, depending on how you look at it) got a title change. Jax's story is now being called Falling Away and is set to be released Winter 2015!!
I have also confirmed that K.C. will be the heroine in that story, which if you've read Until You, then you've already gotten a small glimpse of what I have planned.
Believe me, I understand the resentment towards K.C., but that being said, this is why it's not a good idea to skip Until You. Most readers who read that book warmed to her, and if you didn't, then I give you a HUGE thank you in advance for keeping the faith and giving FALLING AWAY a chance.
If UNTIL YOU taught us anything, it is that there are two sides to every story, and EVERYONE HAS A STORY. Even K.C.
Hell, even Piper ;)
Jax deserves the very best, and I will give him that.
I am sooooo flippin', jumpin'- off-the-walls excited to write this story.
Love to all, and thank you for your excitement and wonderful, positive comments!! You will not be disappointed!
