Author Biography by Kate Benson....
I grew up in and around southeast Texas and have enjoyed a little of the city life but deep down, I'm a small town girl at heart. I moved to Colorado when I was 19 and lived there for a few years until I met my husband in 2001. In 2003, we relocated to his native Florida and for the most part have been here ever since! I started writing when I was a kid. I've always loved books and I found my niche in poetry when I was young. Writing a book has always been a dream of mine, so when my characters started "speaking to me," I couldn't have been more thrilled! I've recently completed my first book, The Promise, which I hope to release soon and I can't wait to share them with you! Please stay tuned to find out what's to come from them and from me in the future! xo

My Today
My Way Series, 
Book Two
by: HJ Bellus


     
Synopsis:
Lacey’s Story…

Covering up pain is easy. It’s keeping it tucked away that’s hard. I’ve always needed the cover of tattoos to hide the nasty past that leached its way into me, tainting me beneath my skin. Not the shiny, trendy tats, but the ugly broken kind, meant to keep the world at bay. If they weren’t enough, then my piercings, foul mouth and crazy hair usually did the trick. Life had taught me to never follow the rules, because when you do, you get burned.
That philosophy served its purpose, until I met someone who turned my life upside down. Milly, the little hoochie, stormed into my life and changed everything with her undying faith in me, her love and her shitty coffee concoctions. I found a family in Milly, and her sexy farm boy, Cree. She accepted me without hesitation, and never ran from the dark and dangerous secrets that I harbored. My new family loved me unconditionally, with their showers of sprinkles and impromptu dance parties. 
My life was perfectly imperfect until Tripp and his crazy-ass ideas of princesses. Our relationship is what most would describe as fuel meeting fire. We were both hell bent on burning each other to the ground. Tripp, fresh out of rehab, moved in with Milly and Cree to try and make a new life for himself. Tripp, the sexy as hell, charismatic beast, soon became one of my best friends. We shared our love of ice cream and tattoos as we blazed our own path that could only lead to a beautiful train wreck. The only question left is, will we set the countryside ablaze with our hot tempers and foul mouths, or will we paint our own happy ending filled with all the gushy shit normal people crave?

Review: My Today


My Today
My Today by H.J. Bellus

My rating: 5 of 5 stars



Well HJ Bellus has knocked it outta the park again!! (Baseball metaphor intended!) My Today picks up right where My Now and Forever leaves off, we pick up with Lacey's story and her waking up she "could feel the morning wood pressing into my hip, so I knew it couldn't be a girl this time". LOL, seriously?? and it just gets better.....after a rude and exposed morning leads her back to Milly and Cree's house and family breakfast.

Tripp is a former baseball player who Lacey refers to as "seriously a freak. You're huge and all muscly and sh!t. You're a Beast." Of course he is your typical bad boy with tats and issues, but we soon discover he is looking for his princess and even asks our hardcore tatted Lacey to be his "Beauty" *sigh*.

Even though things are fudged up in both their pasts, Tripp and Lacey tell a wonderful love story. And in pure Bellus fashion you will have PMP moments and Cry your eyes out only to love completely and laugh with abandon in the end. :)

Lacey terms to watch for....
Kids/Children are known as....Critters, little Creatures, and Rodents
A fetus can be known as....Meatball, Meatballio, and Meatloaf
Friends can be known as....Tw@t-waffle, Biotch, Soul-Sister, and Creeper

My Today is an crazy, sexy, intense, hilarious, enjoyable, and PMP story!

Tripp is the Beast
Lacey is the Beauty, just don't call her Princess
And this is the best fairy tale ever told!

Review: My Now & Forever


My Now & Forever
My Now & Forever by H.J. Bellus

My rating: 5 of 5 stars



Milly is a wonderful and delightfully feisty character that you can't help but admire and adore from the start. Yes she has some issues from her past, but that's what makes you love her more. Strong and Lovely are two adjectives I would use to describe her from the start!

Milly deals with a shitty marriage to "the Bastard", but gains so much more in the long-run. Her mother-in-law Francis is the glue holding things together...until all that changes when she is lost to Milly after a brave and (yes I know its weird to say) funny battle with cancer. You love their relationship and obsession with Potato Salad!!! LOL

"Cindarelly + Francis May Crazy Pants = PMP" PMP is short for Pee my Pants....hahahaha!

Their last whispered words to one another left me in tears, but shortly after I was back to laughing my rear off at the turn of events. Armed with her "cotton candy-colored bling bracelet" she is finally divorced from "the Bastard" and has to meet with Francis' lawyer for something she is totally unaware of. Yes life is crazy!!

After leaving the lawyers with a new lease on life Milly's eye is caught..."It was red! It was beautiful! A '66 Ford-150 with side steps and a "For Sale" sign in the back window." ol'Betsy, as Milly named the truck, is set to start her new chapter in life, "pulled on my aviators and roared out of the driveway".

With little direction of where life was to take her, Milly takes the advice of an elderly gentleman whom she crosses paths with that Colorado will be her destination!!

With following Francis' wishes she opens her journal and makes her "Bucket List Thingy" and begins anew. Setting her sights on a small town outside Fort Collins, CO Milly begins and she is crossing off things on her list!! Starting with Malcom! Sexy hot mechanic! "I need to be serviced, ...I mean I need lubed" ROFL, thank goodness Milly was talking about her '66 Ford, but Malcom is also ready to give her a full service to start her trip out right! Armed with Milly's 'Bad Ass' moves and the motivation "GO!" "It was on like freaking Donkey Kong bitches!" "Woot Woot!"

After finding her store with an apartment above Milly sets out to fix up and open her dream shop. With a beauty salon across the street from her new shop/home, Milly meets Lacy, her "Sister from another Mister!" They sync so well together and become best of friends, instantly and effortlessly. You can't help but love the colorful quirks and banter between the two and it keeps going for the remainder of the book....Definitely soul sisters!!

After a colorful "Shit! Fuck! Bitch!" moment we meet the man of a lifetime...*sigh*...Cree!!!! Assumptions being made by Milly leads her to think he is more than likely unavailable, which is true, except she's only 5 and her name is Anne!!


Lets just say from here things are a beautifully written progression that will leave you laughing, crying, giggling, swooning, and yes most of all, falling in love with Anne.....hehehe, and Milly & Cree too!

Pick up a copy of 'My Now & Forever' and get ready for the next chapter to come called 'My Today'!!

LovelyLovely by Beth Michele
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Sexy-Hot Ash and Lovely Cara *sigh* what a couple!! Absolutely enjoyed and throughly loved this book!

I can not say enough good things about this book without giving too much away. I will say that seeing Cara and Ash's relationship from begining to the end of the book was a journey I will definitely re-read to go on again.

I am claiming Ash as my next new book boyfriend!! *giggles* He is sexy, a bit of a player to start, but the most amazing heart and family.

The emotions portrayed by Beth through her characters is riviting and you cant help but laugh, cry, and fall in love with 'Lovely'.

Some of my favorites moments are...

"You see, I'm the oldest. The big brother. The responsible one. The one who looks after everyone, kicks the occasional ass, tells someone to fuck off." ~ Ash

"She smiles. It's one of those smiles that make life worth living." ~ Ash about Cara

"Homemade chocolate cake. We had it for dinner to celebrate." She grins. "I never pass up an opportunity to have chocolate. Thanks." ~ Ash and Cara

"Because she's heart-stoppingly beautiful. Every. Single. Time." ~Ash about Cara


If you have not picked this up yet....it is a MUST READ!! <3

Review: Just Breathe


Just Breathe
Just Breathe by Rachel Brookes

My rating: 4 of 5 stars



I truely enjoyed this story of Sav and Tate...I found myself engrossed in the characters and storyline of a beautifully broken couple of people who despite their own rules, manage to help each other more than they ever thought. Tanzi and Jack are a beautiful secondary couple in this story and keep the pace fun, light, and filled with whitty humor. Friendship between Sav and Tanzi is every girls BFF dream, they click and get each other even before Sav arrives in LA from Sydney. Mr. Davenport, sexy-charming-serogate-dad to Sav is written to perfection of how a powerful father-figure should be. And lets give it up for locations, Red Velvet, sounds like a rip roaring good time...live music, dance floor, bar, resturant, and occasional fight or hot sex in the corner! And as Sav always remembers...to get through anything you need to 'Just Breathe'.

My only wish was it had the HEA everyone hopes for in a romance. It certianly sets you up for a follow up novel, which can't happen soo enough! :) I can't wait to continue Sav's story!!

Game Lost. Love Gained.
Romance, Rivalry, Lust, Enemys, and yes HEA!! <3

This short story is a quick read, but doesn't leave you hanging. Meeting Sam you think, typical jock/hockey player who is too hard on himself. Then you bump into Barb, a quick witted massuse who unkowingly helps the enemy, but it is off season right? LOL These two are like magnets after their encounter and hold on tight, cuz it only gets HOTTER!! The intensity and lust and playfulness of this story keeps you gripped to the end. And you know, they say keep your friends close and enemys closer, I bet they didn't plan on this!!

Absolutely loved this and hope you pick it up and enjoy it too!! <3

Breakfast In Bed by Robert Zimmermann

My rating: 5 of 5 stars



I have enjoyed Robert's poetry and was enticed by the prospect of an erotica piece. I must admit I was left wanting. The short piece is so delightfully written and super steamy, you can't help but want more, more, more...

I can't wait to read more of Robert's works! Absolutely loved this short story!!

Review: To Cast a Stone


To Cast a Stone
To Cast a Stone by Kelli Lockheart

My rating: 5 of 5 stars



I thoroughly enjoyed this book and look forward to book two. To over come fear through love and the use of mythology were key to making this book so good for me. I loved the visual journey this book took me on as through the eyes of Artemis and her lover, Orion. To Cast a Stone is a very romantic story of finding the love of your life, be it immortal or not. :)

Some reader reviews....

by Don L.: This is an extremely griping story. The author had me hooked within just a short time and the characters are very believable. It reads so smooth that I felt as if I flowed with them from scene to scene. Very nice work JC. I will be looking out for more of your stories if you choose to continue. In my humble opinion, this is a must read for those of us like to curl up with a good book and lose ourselves.

by Sheree W: Loved this book from start to finish I found it hard to put down!!!! First of JC GORDON books that I've read and it definitely will not be the last!!!!

Review: A Wolf's Savage Embrace


A Wolf's Savage Embrace
A Wolf's Savage Embrace by Darlene Kuncytes

My rating: 5 of 5 stars



This picks up right after A Vampire's Savage Embrace with Luke and Kat's story. And what a story it is!! You can't help but enjoy this book throughout with all the humor and lust between the two main characters. And just when you think your along for a good read, it gets even better! Witches and Demons and Family Dysfunction makes this a suspenseful adventure as Kat tries to find a sister she never knew she had after a call from a mother she doesn't want to talk to. Luke is powerful and liquid sex on legs and the passion doesn't stop.

Eagerly waiting for this tale to continue in Marcus' story!

Recommend this series highly as it was all around enjoyable.

Favorite quote: "Damn it, wolf. You are an ass-monkey! Dear God! When they were passing out brains they must have run out by the time they got to you."
