COMPLETE: A Tainted Love Novella Excerpt

“Firecracker, does this feel like I don’t desire you?” Marshall grinds his groin into my ass, letting me feel his thickness.
The resistance I have been putting up falls away like a thin layer of clothing. Heat settles in the pit of my stomach and a dull ache forms between my thighs.

“I’ve wanted you every day since I saw you almost ten years ago, Rachel,” Marshall whispers into my neck as he nips along the column making me shudder. “I’ve never stopped wanting you,” he continues, his voice coming out gruff due to my grinding down on his thick, pulsing length. “I was just waiting on you to realize you wanted me too, and to stop being so fucking difficult.”

“I’m sorry,” I apologize, because I really am. So caught up in my insecurities and fear, that I almost ruined the best thing to ever happen to me.
“You were never in danger of losing me, Rae,” he lets me know while he holds my face in his hands. “’Til death, baby. Only death will keep us apart; and even then…”

My lips crash to his with nothing more to say between us. Our bodies long to communicate in the best way we know how. Our bodies long to connect. My skin buzzes with heightened arousal as our tongues touch, an electric current zapping through me.
“If you leave me, this earth, I will find you, Rachel,” he threatens. “You can’t leave me. Whatever happens, tell me we’ll face it together; that we’ll get through it together.”

How can I deny him that? He wants to partake of my joy and my sorrow. He wants to be there with me through whatever life throws at us and here I am: wanting to bail.

“If you leave me, I will rampage through Hell to drag you back to me,” he asserts and I can’t help but chuckle lightly.

“You assume I’d go to Hell?” I question.
“Hell is reserved for evil people, I hear,” he states. “And evil would be leaving me on this Earth to let other women have their ways with me.” That causes me pause.
Looking over my shoulder, I pin him with serious eyes as I tell him, “If I die and that happens, know that you will have no peace. I will haunt you until you off yourself.”

Marshall only smiles against my neck before saying, “Ditto.”

Wednesday Morning Thoughts: Love in the morning

So, this morning, something after 4a.m., I woke up with a raging hard-on...nipples were hard, clit throbbing...I'll spare you the gory details. Just know that I was lit like a fuse. I contemplated waking my Hubs with an oral surprise but knew that that wasn't what I needed. I got up, restless, realizing that it was close to the time that I should be getting up to prepare for work, but I just couldn't move toward a shower, or anything for that matter.

I sat in my couch and stared in the darkness, need clawing at my skin...until I just said" Fuck it!" At the risk of being late, I pulled my panties to the side and brought myself off.

By the time I was finished, I had a half an hour to get ready before the taxi came. I'd never moved so fast in my LIFE!

The edge was taken off and the lethargy I would usually feel each early morning, was non-existent. I felt re-energized, a pep brought back in my step, and for the first time, I was ready BEFORE the time I was supposed to leave.

Sometimes when we see these high strung females (I mean, women, since it's all of a sudden wrong to say the F word) running around offices making everybody walk on eggshells; a good dicking might have prevented World War Hormones from breaking out. Some men who fly off into a rage if someone honks their horns too loudly, or are monumental dicks to those he works with, would have done well with some dickular (yes, that's my word) attention from their significant others or themselves.

Sometimes, a little love in the morning is what you need to start your day off on the right foot. Whether it be someone loving on you or you loving on yourself, getting off gets the edge off. Get some love in your system today and see the wonders it does for your mood. Hell, go into your office or your bathroom right now, lock the damn door and rub and flick until you see stars! Work won't seem so daunting in the bright light of those stars ;)

WOMAN CRUSH WEDNESDAY goes out to my clit...you rock my world!!!!!!

Ladies, you might need to bring your vibrators with you from now on................................

Tuesday Morning Thoughts: A Smile a day...

Coming into work this morning, I found myself smiling. Not an odd occurrence by any means, but today, I was actually cognizant of the brightness on my face...even though I didn't want to be smiling at all today. I wanted to be wrapped up in my misery from work, and the fact that I felt uncomfortable there now, but the smile on my face betrayed that. Every person I passed or hailed a greeting to, was privy to my smile that seemed to come from some inner place that I don't know about. I smiled in spite of myself and noticed some stuff:

One, when I smiled, it brightened the person's face that I came in contact with. Two, it made someone who was already smiling, smile even brighter. One man said that he saw my smile before he saw me and then added: "I'm not coming on to you, it's the truth." Another person said that she loves to see my smile in the morning as it gives her "impetus" to start her day properly. Another man said that he loves to see me smile, then he'll know I'm okay and I wouldn't have to say so myself. I didn't want to tell him that I wasn't, not because I didn't want to unload on the poor old man, but because I didn't want to ruin his day. So I smiled even brighter and told him "thank you" and went on my way...heart lifted.

There is a prayer chorus that goes: "Smile awhile and give your face a rest. Raise your hand, to the one you love the best. Then shake hands, with those nearby. And greet them with a smile." If you start your day with a smile, one that isn't just coming from being polite, but a genuine smile, see how better your day gets. You're not the only who benefits from your smile. Think about it: When others beam you a genuine smile, does it not cause you to smile, too? Everything might be crashing down around you, but find something today to smile genuinely about. Stop being a negative little shit! The world is filled with negative shit already; meet it with a smile and change your outlook. You'd be surprised to see how your entire world changes for a moment with just a smile. There's always a reason to smile. It's on you to find it...toothless or not ;)

Monday morning thoughts: Just a lil' bit

On the drive to work this morning, I got to thinking about sleep...why does it seem so elusive when you really need to, why do you want to when the time doesn't call for it, and why does it never seem enough? I've concluded that it's like money: hard to come by, quick to leave and never enough.

This morning, I felt my eyes burning with the reality that I didn't get enough sleep after going to bed sometime after 10:30p.m. and waking up 4:16a.m. Yet, as I pulled out my cell and began reading, the thought of resting my head against the window and catching an hour & a half's worth was far from my mind. Now, however, as I sit down to get some work done, all I feel is lethargic. My eyes burn in earnest and the heaviness in my head has spread to my limbs.

What I wouldn't give for an hour of shut eye! Which brings me to my reference about money.

Last week, I was contemplating not going to a very good friend of mine's wedding, because when I thought of how far away it was, the gas to get there, the money to buy something new, to get my hair done, then to still think about groceries...I just didn't have the money to do everything without something suffering. So I thought, instead of starving to death, I would hold on to whatever money I had & buy her a gift in 2 weeks. Something told me to check my debit card. I hadn't been checking my expenditure, so I really thought I was in the amber (warning levels). When I did, however, I saw more than I expected...so much that I was able to EVERYTHING that I wanted to do and even tied in work for this week!

I say all this to say, a little extra (sleep, money), makes a WORLD of difference. Just a little extra can put the pep back in your step. Appreciate the extra today, and if you have an over-abundance of something, even just a little bit (energy, money, love), don't hesitate to share.

KNOWLEDGE

Education is important

But experience is key

I love that you're my teacher

But it's time to learn from me

Sit back, relax

I hope you will take notes

Enjoy this education

As my mouth dishes quotes

Your eyes roll back

My words so profound

Like Plato's allegory

You were lost but now found

Illumination hits you

Lights explode behind the eyes

Brain on tap

Mind blown to the skies

As you come down

Exhausted from class

I clean up the teacher's desk

And submit that you've passed

"How was the lesson?"

I ask my favorite student

A slow smile spreads

And I kneel taking the compliment

You stroke my cheek so tenderly

My skills you acknowledge

Thankful for your girl

Thankful that she dropped knowledge.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

THIS BOOK WAS................AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I give this book as many stars as I can find!

The writing, the story line?


I have been trying to wrap my mind around a proper review of this book for weeks. Nothing I say will give this book proper justice. This is, EASILY, the best and FUNNIEST book I've read...EVER!

Okay....so prepare for a few minor spoilers.

The story is from the POV of the lead character, Andrew "Drew" Evans,



Glorified man-whore.


The opening chapter begins with him having a rare type of flu, called love-sickness (something that he has NEVER experienced in all his life), and after an intervention from his best friend and sister, he tells the story of the events leading up to his depressed mood.

At one of his regular bar visits, after hooking up with a random bar chick, he meets Kate


She evokes in him, feelings that he did not quite understand at first, but chalked up to wanting to have sex with her. They talk for a few minutes and she tells him that she's engaged. He would have put her out of his mind except...she's the new employee at his father's company!...where he also works! Now, more than ever, he HAS to sleep with her...he just has to. Problem is, he doesn't sleep with his coworkers...but for her, he'll make an exception. He finds out that they are both very competitive, and when his father pits the against each other to come up with a pitch for a new client, things get a little heated between the two, in more ways than one. More than that, he starts to get to know her and develop feelings for her...not in the Drew Evans playbook, but he can't help it.

When Drew finally gets his chance with Kate, he soon realizes that his feelings have intensified drastically. Drew Evans, man-whore extraordinaire, is head-over-heels in love. Kate, no doubt, feels the same, but just when things seem to be going Drew's way, re-enter Kate's ex who wants another chance. Drew thinks he's lost his chance and royally screws things up with his big mouth, seemingly losing Kate forever. But when he finds out that Kate didn't get back together with her ex-fiance, he has to fight to get her back.

He goes to ridiculously sweet lengths to win back her favor, for her to believe in him again, and after a poorly cooked dinner date at his home, Drew finally gets his girl back.

Now that all that's out of the way.........I must say that the writing was wonderful, quirky and engaging. I felt like I was watching a Romantic comedy the entire time. I was LOL-ing so much that I could envision this book as a movie. From start to finish, this book was hilarious! I don't think I've ever enjoyed a book more than I enjoyed this one.

I have to be talking myself out of re-reading it, as every time I see the cover I just want to open it and start reading.

To the author....BRAVA BELLISSIMA!!!! Emma Chase did the damn thing in this novel!

Emma Chase is


Tangled is a refreshing read...funny, engaging, and entertaining. Two thumbs and two big toes way up!

Seduced in the Dark by C.J. Roberts
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This book was absolutely gripping from Book one to Book two. The way in which the author switched between the characters' story was apt and made us understand each character more. The plot was intense and commanding. It makes you want to keep turning the page. All the revelations from the book kept me saying: Oh. My. God!!!!!

The Dr. Sloan revelation didn't surprise me. I kinda knew there was something more to her squeaky-clean, nerdy persona. Lol!!! Love it! Agent Reed's revelation shocked the heck outta me though. Thank you for that shocker Mrs. Roberts!!!!

The truth behind Caleb and Rafiq was a stunner and I loved that twist in the story.

But the true heroin....Miss Ruiz. My God! She's awesome! And I call her a heroin because it's truly what she is. She is strong, emotive, and resilient and used these as strengths to help her to survive what was a horrible, heinous few months. I love Livvie!!!! ^_^

It's always a question though: Can a victim ever love her captor? Us psychology enthusiasts would believe that it is just Stockholm's, but this book answers the question for us in a most vivid way.

I'm so glad I read this book. I already want to re-read the series. Please read. Don't read with a closed mind. The only way you will enjoy this book is if you open you open your mind and let go of preconceived notions and all knowledge of what you think is right and/or wrong. That stuff doesn't belong in reading anyway. Lol!!!!
