The Next Big Thing Blog Hop
The Next Big Thing ~ Blog Hop 06 March 13~ THE NEXT BIG THING – BLOG HOP
What’s a blog hop? It’s a great way readers can discover new authors! Here, I tell you all about my upcoming novel due to come out in April. You’ll also get links below to other authors I’d like you to check out. I’d like to thank fellow author RE Hargrave for inviting me to participate.
You can find her HERE
In this particular hop I’ve answered 10 questions, giving you a few exclusives and sneak peeks … I hope you enjoy!
5. What is the one-sentence synopsis of your book? Two broken people caught up in the chaos of lust find their match, but can they accept each other, or will it be their destruction?
6. Is your book published by an independent publisher? It is a self published piece.
7. How long did it take you to write the first draft of your manuscript? A year to write the first draft, then four months to go back through it after a break. Book one and two were written in that time.
8. What other books would you compare this story to within your genre? When I tell people about my book, the easiest thing to say is that it’s along the lines of Fifty Shades of Grey, only better. ;)
9. Who or what inspired you to write this book? I just wanted to write something smutty, a fun piece, but it took on a life of its own.
10. What else about your book might pique the reader’s interest? Nathan is beautifully damaged. He fights his attraction and affections for Delilah to the core, in almost violent ways. It’s a love story, combined with mystery, healing, and dirty talking sex.

1.
What’s the title of your book? Breach
2. Where did the idea come from? It started out as me wanting to write a smut piece. As soon as I began writing it took a turn and because the deepest emotional story I’ve ever written. It exploded from a fairly light story, to two broken characters and their journey of healing and accepting love. It sprung into a trilogy, with each book being a stage in their relationship and fight against that which haunts them.
3. What genre does your book come under? Romance/erotica
4. Which actors would you choose to play your characters in a movie rendition? I went searching for the answer to this, because I hadn’t thought about it. David Gandy for Nathan. He looks just like the picture in my head, I just didn’t know there was a real person that looked that way. If not him than Michael Fassbender. I really like Mia Wasikowska for Delilah, but I can also see Emily Blunt or Lauren Cohan.

Prologue:
Hands.
They
were punishing. He grabbed my waist with a feral grip, pulling me to him hard
while he thrust into me even harder. The way we both needed it.
There
would be bruises in the morning from where his hands found purchase, but I
didn’t mind.
The
day was the same as the one before as he took from my body, my heart, my soul. In
return he gave himself to me the only way he knew how: with bruising hands,
passionate kisses, and hard thrusts.
His
body was sin, his cock was sin, and I was a sinner.
His
hands moved up my thighs, long slender fingers playing my body, bending me to
his will. They were a delicious torture as well as his words.
His
lips sucked at my neck, teeth digging in, making my eyes roll back; another
mark.
I
grinned. He loved marking, and I loved hiding them from people. They were
proof, a reminder of his need, his pleasure.
My
tongue ran up the column of his neck before I found the perfect location to
mark him as well. The spot I choose, just below his ear, would make it visible,
unable to be hidden by the collar of his dress shirt.
It
would make his admirers mad with wonder when they came around to bug him the
next day. I smiled at the thought of them finding out he was breaking the rules
every day with me, and not them.
Hollywood had
nothing on us. Awards could be given for the lies we told, and the feelings we
hid under a mask of hate and indifference.
He
pulled my hair, bringing my focus back to him, his teeth scraping my neck. No
doubt leaving small pink trails on my skin. He growled. “You’re not paying
attention to my cock, Lila.”
A
shiver ran down my spine and my muscles clenched around him, eliciting a rumble
deep in his chest. He thrust hard and deep, causing me to scream out in response.
He
picked up the pace. “That’s it, baby. That’s what I like to hear.” He was
pushing me to the edge again. “Scream for me. I want everyone to hear what I do
to you.”
My
mind was fuzzy, lost in a sea of lust. I obeyed and let go, no longer holding
back. My screams echoed around the room, and that trademark smirk of his formed
on his perfect features.
His
mouth moved down to my breasts where he began licking and nipping. The
combination of sensations from his body’s assault was too much. His name spilled
from my lips on a scream as my back arched off the bed. My hands grabbed his
arms; nails digging in as my walls constricted around him.
“Fuck,
you feel so damn good when you come around my cock.”
I was
too far gone to respond, my body going lax after my orgasm. He was still going.
Both hands were back on my hips as he drove into me. His stamina was
unparalleled. How many times in the past had I been forced to come multiple
times before he spilled inside me?
“God,
I’m close,” he grunted before pulling out.
I
whimpered at the loss, but knew what he was doing. What he wanted from me.
I
managed to turn my body around, coming face to face with his cock and took him
into my eager mouth. I lapped up my juices from him as my tongue swirled around
his length. His eyes were on me, watching his cock disappear between my lips.
He loved to watch me suck him after being buried in my pussy. I sucked hard,
punishing him as he had me. I was rewarded with a hiss and a flex of his hips.
My teeth grazed his skin. He moaned deep in his chest, his panting gaining
speed, muscles tensing.
His
hands wrapped up in my hair just as he began to thrust, fucking my mouth. He
was grunting and moaning as he hit the back of my throat. I reached up to
massage his balls, adding to the sensations.
“Fuck!”
he cried out. His hips flexed forward before jerking. He came hard; spurt after
spurt, sliding into my mouth and down my throat.
After
licking him clean, I released him from my mouth. I smiled up at him and he
leaned down to kiss me. The kiss was passionate, as were all his kisses. It was
also harsh; his teeth biting on my lip, scraping it, tasting himself.
He
got a rag to clean me up before lying down and curling into one another.
Tomorrow was closing in. Another day of wearing masks and hiding what we
wanted, what we were, from the world. Another day of denying each other.
Another night of punishing to look forward to.
Why
was he punishing? Because I called to him, and let him do what he wanted to me.
Then punishing himself for wanted me and doing whatever he wanted to me.
Punishing
us for our breach.

A Helping Hand
I have a request, it’s a
small one, and takes little of your time, but it can help me a lot. Below is a
list I found about free things you can do to help out an indie author. While
none of my books are up on Amazon yet, they will be soon.
Please help on Goodreads
if you have one, and vote on this list. Breach is currently 262, and Obsession
is currently 1061. With each vote they can move higher up in rank, especially
Obsession (a few votes can move it
about 500). http://www.goodreads.com/list/show/10889.Can_t_Wait_Books_of_2013?format=html&page=11

Another free way gives
you a little surprise as well. For those who are willing to help will receive one
of the book marks below. I will send 6, but request you give five of them away
to friends, family, co-workers; anyone who would be interested. Are you
interested in helping me in this way? Please PM Catastrophia Of Trinity if you
are.
FREE things you can do to
help an indie author:
--"Like" their Facebook book or author pages. Lots of book pages feature indie authors. When you see one of them as you're scrolling, hover over their names and click "like" when the box appears. If you're not interested in seeing their updates on your timeline, un-check the box that appears when you over over "liked."
-- "Like" them on Amazon. Tags have disappeared and the "Like" button seems to be vanishing, too, but some book pages still have it. Give them some love while you still can.
-- Shelve them on Goodreads. You don't have to rate them or review. Simply putting them on a shelf -- according genre or whether it's first-person, love triangle, whatever-- helps make the book more popular.
-- If you have read the book, please give the author a review. It doesn't have to be glowing or wordy. Just saying one or two things you liked, or even stuff you didn't like, is sufficient. Post your review on Goodreads, Amazon, Shelfari, B&N, iTunes... The more places, the better, and it's okay to cut-and-paste the same review to each site.
--Tweet or post on Facebook about books you liked.
--If Amazon sends you an email about the book, give it a click. It helps the book gain rank in the algorithm.
-- Re-Tweet or share their posts about their book, sales, excerpts, etc.
-- Next time you're at the library or bookstore, ask them to carry the book.
