Excerpt from Friends With Partial Benefits

Jillian Grayson sat up in bed, typing away on the keyboard of her laptop computer. She wore a nightshirt that wasn’t all that sexy, but what she was typing was… or at least it started out that way…

 Dallas lay in bed, unable to sleep and wondering if Katrina was suffering the same fate—and for the very same reason. Did she want him as much as he wanted her? Katrina was but a few steps away, yet he dare not go to her, for he was a guest, and then there was Katrina’s mother, who was just across the hall. For Dallas, sleep came minutes later, but it would be short- lived, for soon Katrina stood over him, completely nude and pondering how to proceed…

Dallas must have been in a deep sleep, since he didn’t feel it when Katrina peeled the sheet carefully off him, exposing his muscular body, six-pack abs, and sizeable manhood. She quivered when his impressiveness sprang into view. For a long time, she kneeled next to the bed, just studying his body and savoring his scent. Taking his sex into her hand, Katrina worked it until it was rigid while she watched him sleep. When Dallas woke, he looked into her eyes, swallowed hard, and whispered, “I’ve been waiting for you.”

Just as fast as his sex expanded, it lost its firmness and flopped against his leg. Katrina looked down at it in disappointment and then moaned in frustration. “What’s wrong?”

Dallas said sheepishly, “Sometimes that happens to me. Sorry. Ever since I cheated on my wife with that whore in the pool, I haven’t been able to—“

 Jillian stopped typing and thought she might be heading in the wrong direction with this. How did her ex-husband get into the story? But then again, most men are assholes, she thought.

Picking up the glass of wine from her nightstand, she took a long sip and then replaced it. She highlighted the last paragraph about Dallas’s problem, hit one key, and it was gone. Just like his boner. She laughed out loud.

Jillian wasn’t exactly in the correct frame of mind to write at the moment, especially on this particular subject. She stared straight ahead and wondered about the likelihood of Dallas slipping in the shower, striking his head, and dying instantly. Or maybe an earthquake could strike, and Dallas’s amazingly perfect body would be trapped under a giant beam.

What the hell kind of name was Dallas anyway? She thought she might want to give her character a real name like Stewart but figured no one would believe that a guy named Stewart could give you six consecutive orgasms in one night.

What was she doing, anyway, writing novels about people having amazing sex when she’d never had any? Okay, maybe once or twice twenty years ago, but none since then. She had no right. If people knew that she was the one writing these books, they wouldn’t buy them. She was a fraud.

Jillian picked up her wineglass and took another long drink. She grinned, wiped those unhelpful thoughts from her mind, and started typing again…

 Katrina took his sex in her hand and worked it until it was rigid. As she studied it closely, Katrina noticed two red bumps on the underside of his pathetic excuse for a penis. She recoiled in horror—

 Jillian hit the backspace key to erase everything after Dallas’s “sex” started expanding. Romance novels about erectile dysfunction and STDs weren’t exactly big sellers. She closed the lid on the laptop and tossed it gently onto a pillow at the foot of the bed. She emptied her wineglass with one last sip and turned on the television.

Book One: Earthbound Angels
Written by Elizabeth Corrigan
Carrie works at a diner in South Philadelphia, dispensing advice to humans and angels wise enough to seek her counsel. But there are some problems that even the best advice can’t solve.

Her latest supplicant, Sebastian, is unique among those who have sought her aid. He sold his soul to a demon in exchange for his sister’s life, but his heart remains pure.

Carrie has lived for millennia with the knowledge that her immortality is due to the suffering of others, and she cannot bear to see another good man damned when it is within her power to prevent it.

In order to renegotiate his contract, Carrie must travel into the depths of hell and parley with the demons that control its pathways. As the cost of her journey rises, Carrie must determine how much she is willing to sacrifice to save one good soul.

Review

Oracle of Philadelphia is filled with angels, demons and archdemons. Carrie travels this journey meeting Gabriel, the angel of joy and Michael the general. It is quite a lot to grasp that is why I am glad the author has a very easy way of writing to let you become engaged gradually with the characters before you get lost in the plot. Sometimes with a fast moving plot of this nature the demon get lost in the story and are not clear. I truly enjoyed it! I thought the author was great as was the look into another world. If this is your type of genre I am sure you will just eat it up.

My review:

Lately I have been reading a little bit on the fantasy side and I have thrown a few paranormal romances in there. Excitedly I have to report this was pretty good. Nothing nuts that someone who is not an avid fantasy genre reader to grasp.  The Oracle of Philadelphia has kept certain things a secret. Like the fact that she is the immortal one and has her channeling not the psychic everyone believes is the source. Cassia is immortal and therefore, I had no idea, she is soul less. I got a little education on this and how he gained immortality. Lucifer (yikes that scared me a bit) makes sure that the bad souls are sent to the most unpleasant place. There is no going back, he does have the power to decide, but rarely does.  Eternity as far a Lucifer is concerned is just that eternity.

The author, Elizabeth Carrigan helped me to get into the set up ad the characters. I was scared a few times but it was NOT dark. The good angels were displayed equally as the demons were. I certainly have started to like this type of writing. I think if I have someone to thank it is Elizabeth Corrigan. If it wasnt for this type of characterization I would be diving into a novel like this!

Book Trailer 

Synopsis:

During her abduction and assault, Audrey begins to hear a voice. She hopes she’s not going crazy, because after what she’s experienced, that’s the most logical explanation. However, as she begins to listen to the voice, Audrey realizes that someone may be telepathically trying to help her.
Unfortunately, rescue isn’t all she needs. In order to leave behind the constant reminders, she flees to her Aunt Kate’s house in San Diego, and assumes a new identity. It works—until the eighteen-year-old twin boys who live next door threaten to break through the protective walls she’s worked so hard to build.
Between Caleb going out of his way to befriend her and Justin avoiding her at all costs, Audrey doesn’t know if normalcy will ever find her again. But one thing is certain: When a familiar danger resurfaces, it’s the same voice that she turns to—a voice that is not only real, but a lot closer than she realizes.
Gripping and tastefully told, The Voice is a story of healing, trust, and courage.

Review:

Why should you read it? It is one of the most compelling novels written on the subject. While it does have it’s moments of shear sadness, it has so much love and healing. In order to overcome such a torturous ordeal the main character Audrey tries therapy and behavior therapy with little success. The fact that she had such a traumatic experience and survives is amazing. The fact that she can actually heal and trust is remarkable.

Character wise, I liked how her family and friends never gave up. Although she had best friends calling and passing by that she didn’t see, they didnt give up. I was so torn up at her brothers and how they loved her, but didn’t know how to deal. Her Aunt Kate was just as strong as Audrey. The dream boat neighbors Caleb and Justin played the most important role. Their story, as well as their Mom’s is remarkable and touching.

When I read it and saw this was the author’s first book I was shocked. When this is a debut, just imagine what is in her brain ready to be written on paper. I am so happy to come to know Jennifer Ann Davis and call her a friend. Read the book!

I am giving a copy away and so is the author DONT miss the chance to support her and to read a wonderful book! ENTER

My interview with Jennifer Anne Davis

Jenn

Is there any personal experiences with hearing voices? More than a Mothers intuition.

No, there isn’t. The only thing I’ve ever encountered is my own voice inside telling me something, usually when I’m faced with a dangerous situation. The hard part is listening to and trusting myself sometimes.

Do you believe in it?

I actually don’t believe in telepathy. However, I have heard that a lot of times twins have a special connection. I’m not a twin, but I have a sister and we’re very close. I feel like we can almost read one another’s minds sometimes!

Anything similar between you and Audrey?

Not between me and Audrey. However, she is loosely based off of someone I crossed paths with while teaching high school. This particular person wasn’t kidnapped and sexually assaulted, but she was date raped. I wanted to be able to bring up the topic of sexual abuse without having the story be all about it. I wanted to touch upon it, to be able to open the door for communication on the matter. But for me, the story is about so much more than what happened to Audrey. It’s really about her journey to recovery.

How do you feel being a Mom of three to write about a kidnapping?

In all honesty, having a child kidnapped and/or sexually abused is my worst nightmare. It’s one of the reasons I decided not to write a sequel for this book. Even though it ends on a positive note (I’m trying not to say too much about the ending) it isn’t a place I can go back to right now. When I wrote the flashback scenes, I had to put myself in Audrey’s position to be able to write her, and it was a really dark and scary place to go to. I can’t even imagine my own kids. But that’s kind of the point. I want teens to feel empowered to stand up for themselves. If something makes them uncomfortable, they should say something, and parents need to listen and take it seriously. If anything, I hope this book opens the door for conversations between moms and their daughters about sexual abuse.

Book description

A Girl, a Guy, a Tournament and a Challenge

The Girl: At a time when most girls obsess about homecoming and high school prom, Rainy Dey spent her senior year caring for her dying mother. So when her father drops her off at college to start her freshman year, his words of advice to his bookish daughter are to start acting like a young person and finally have some fun.

The Guy: College senior, Aaron Donavan, aka Mr. Hot-and-Knows-It, is President of the Clubhouse, a social club for the college’s most wealthy and popular guys. Aaron can have any girl on campus except the one who challenges and excites him the most—Rainy Dey.

The Tournament: Every year, the senior members of The Clubhouse engage in a golf-inspired tournament to see who can sleep with the most freshman girls. When Rainy finds out about the tournament, she believes Aaron’s only interest in her is to score points by taking her V-Card.

The Challenge: Can Aaron convince Rainy that his feelings for her are true and that she won’t be just another notch on his tournament scorecard?
