Broken Vows

Broken Vows is the first book in my Hot Romance Series. Publication date is in August.

Here is an excerpt from Broken Vows

      In two quick strides he was beside me. I wanted to tell him thanks, but my throat felt dry. I gazed at him as if mesmerized. He took the cup from my hand and set it down on the counter at the island. The pulse throbbed in my throat and a tremor ran through the length of my body as his hand encircled my waist and he pulled me to him.      

     Before my mind could process what was happening, I felt his lips warm and rough against mine. I inhaled his musky male smell, and tasted the sweet essence of his tongue probing mine. My legs turned to jelly. My body melted against his and I kissed him back.

Book Review

I am a little behind in my reading goals but I will do my best to catch up. A book I finished reading recently is “Jane Eyre” by Charlotte Bronte. This is an old Classic and some of you may have read it before.

What I love about this book is its refreshing honesty and simple style. I love Jane’s bluntness, her honesty and her innocence in regards to matters of love. Her story is relatable even today for those who are caught up in the system of foster care and children’s homes. Her story is one of strength and survival and finding love in the end.

If you like classics, try this one!
