How Ella Jade Came Into My Life
The lovely author, Ella Jade, first came to my attention
when The Weekend Proposition was published. I had been scrolling through
Facebook when I noticed a post about it. I thought, well this sounds intriguing
and very sexy, I will have to remember to get it on release day.
I remember it like it was yesterday; I fell head over heels for
Spencer and decided that I just had to let her know. Really, what author
doesn't want to know that a reader loved their work? Anyhow, I sent Ella a
little tweet saying how much I loved Spencer and The Weekend Proposition and
you know what I got in return? A big fat nothing! Yup, a woman I love more now
than I did then, didn't even respond! You would think that would stop me from
consuming all her work, but I just kept right on stalking her. Frankly, I think
she is better for it! ;)
So now I wait, impatiently at times, for her latest WIP to be
completed and published. Okay, I'll be honest; I harass her on a near daily
basis. Like I said before, and I'll say it again, I love this woman. And
although I enjoy all her work, Spencer will always be my favorite; he brought
Ella to me!
Oh and one last thing, when you see her, tell her Gavin says,
"Please tell my story. I'm begging you!" She will laugh and
tell you no, he can't be redeemed, but I'm on a mission!! I may not win, but it
sure will be a fun journey and I may need to enlist the help of a certain young
man named Robert. After all, a girl’s gotta do what a girl’s gotta do!
"Life Will Knock Us Down, But We
Can Choose To Get Back Up."

Tess took off her clothes, tossed them
in a pile in the corner of the bathroom, and stepped into the steamy shower.
Through the steam she could make out Chase’s muscular back and tight ass before
he turned to face her. All or nothing.
“What are you doing?” His hungry gaze
traveled down her now wet body.
“Joining you.” She moved toward him,
flattening her palms against his chest. “I didn’t think you’d mind.”
“Tessa.” He shook his head before
kissing her. “What am I going to do with you?”
Anything you want.
“Stop trying to fight me.” She nipped
at his bottom lip when his erection grazed her center. “Let’s just go with it.”
He twisted his fingers in her hair,
pulling her to his lips and kissing her hard. She gripped his shoulders for
support when he lifted her and pressed her into the cool tiles opposite the
shower door. When he thrust his hips forward she thought she might come from
that action alone. She’d spent weeks thinking about what it would be like to
feel him – all of him – inside her.
“Baby.” His voice was low. “My plan was
to take you out today. You know, maybe do things in the right order.”
“Fuck order.” She reached in between
them, taking his cock in her hand. “I don’t like to follow the rules.”
“Fuck,” he hissed as he tightened his
hold on her. “I like it when you talk dirty.” He ran the tip of his tongue
along the seam of her lips as he lowered her to her feet. “I thought we agreed
to take this slow. How am I supposed to think when you have my dick in your
hand?”
“You said you wanted to take this slow.
I never agreed to that. Would you like it better...” she dropped to her knees,
“if your dick was in my mouth?”
“Ahh...” he moaned when she swirled her
tongue around the head of his cock.
She looked up at him, waiting for his
approval as she licked her lips. She rested her palm on his upper thigh.
“You’re not going to stop me are you?”
“I’d be an idiot.” He took her chin in
his hand, holding her still as he pressed his cock to her lips. “I did say I
wouldn’t fight this anymore so open up.”
“It’s about time.” Opening her mouth,
she took him in, inch by inch, slow and steady. There was so much of him to
take and she wanted it all. Once she had as much of him as she could handle,
she grasped his base in her hand, pumping in time with her mouth.
“Oh, God...” he mumbled as he threaded
his fingers through her hair, pulling it tight as he thrust his hips forward.
“You make me crazy.”
With each pass of her tongue on the
underside of his shaft she felt his control diminishing. His surrender made her
drunk with desire. The tingling between her legs intensified almost to the
point of pain. She’d never touched herself there before, but his moans fueled
her lust. She had to relieve the ache. Without releasing him from her mouth,
she slipped her hand between her thighs, running her finger along her slit as
she continued to suck him. Her nipples tingled as she pleasured herself.
Finding her clit, she massaged it between her thumb and finger as the heat of
the water streamed down her neck and back. The sensation of the powerful shower
heads pulsing over her flesh, the feeling she created between her legs and the
taste of his cock threw her into a frenzy. His legs tensed as he gathered her
damp hair into a makeshift ponytail, jerking her head back.
“Tessa...” He placed his hand over hers
at the base of his shaft and removed himself from her mouth, spraying his warm
release all over her neck and breasts.
With each labored breath she took, she
increased the pace of her own fingers until she pushed herself over the edge
and joined him in the bliss of the moment. He let go of her hair and held out
his hand for her. She took it and shakily got up from the floor, cuddling
against his wet chest.
He tilted her chin to look into her
eyes and wrapped his other arm around her waist, cradling her in his strong
hold. “That was amazing.” The corner of his mouth curved into a smile. “But
from now on,” he released her face and raised her hand to his, sucking two of
her fingers into his mouth. Her stomach fluttered and her pussy pulsed with
need when his warm tongue flicked over her fingers. “I’m the only one who makes
you come.”
Heat filled her cheeks as she tried to
defend herself. “I-I’ve never done that before. I got caught up in the moment
and...”
“It’s okay.” He kissed her wrist. “I
couldn’t take my eyes off you. That was the hottest thing I’ve ever seen.”
“Really?”
“Really.” He kissed a path from her jaw
to her lips. “I was jealous it wasn’t my fingers inside you.”
“It’s early.” She ran her lips across
his stubble. “We still have time.”
“You have no idea what you’ve unleashed
within me. The things I’m going to do to you all night. Every night. The ways I
can make you scream. I tried to keep it at bay, sweetheart. I really did, but
after today there’s no going back.”
“I’ve never wanted anyone the way I
want you. When I close my eyes, it’s your hands I want to feel on my flesh,
your lips all over me. You already do things to me that no one else ever has.”

“Hey.” Sophia gently closed the door
behind her and walked over to him. “Miss me?”
“Maybe.” He reached for her, tossing
her into his lap. “The guys dropped me off after we went for some food. I
couldn’t unwind so I came over here.”
“Why so restless?” She traced her
fingers down his cheek before pressing her lips to him.
“I’m always restless without you.” He
ran his hand through her hair. “What am I going to do when I’m in New York?”
“I’ll call you.” She hated to think
about him having to leave again. They were just getting into a routine. They
felt like a real couple.
“That’s not the same as touching you. I
need you in my bed.” He kissed her jaw, working his way down her neck,
lingering at her collarbone. “I want you with me.”
“I still have another month of school,”
she reminded him. They’d discussed her traveling with him throughout the summer
but they hadn’t made any solid plans.
“Have you thought about coming with me
on the road?” He slipped the strap of her sundress over her shoulder and placed
a soft kiss there. “Some of the guys’ girlfriends come with them.”
“Are you sure you want me around all
the time?” She shifted to straddle him. “I might cramp your style.”
“Did you go out like this?” His gaze
traveled down her body, totally abandoning their conversation.
“Like what?”
“In this skimpy little dress?” He
focused on her breasts as he rested his hands on her thighs. “Don’t you know
how tempting you are?”
“Show me.” She nipped at his earlobe.
“Do I tempt you?”
“What do you think?” He moved her hand
over his erection. “Let’s go back to my house.”
“I can’t wait that long.” She reached
for his belt buckle. “I have an early morning meeting and my parents aren’t
expecting me to sleep out. I don’t want them to worry.”
“Leave them a note.” He watched as she
lowered the zipper on his jeans. “What are you doing?”
“Showing you how tempting you are.” She
slide her hand inside his boxer as she slithered down, kneeling in front of
him. “Maybe I can help you settle down. Help you get a good night’s sleep.”
“Here?” He looked around. “What about
your parents?”
“You don’t strike me as a conservative
guy.” She leaned forward and swirled her tongue around the head of his cock.
“You seem like the adventurous type.”
“You keep that up and you’ll see how
daring I can be.” He slunk back and closed his eyes as she took him into her
mouth. “Hell...” he hissed when she grazed his shaft with her teeth.
The few times they’d been together, she
learned what he liked. She may not have been experienced in the sex department
but Pax proved to be a good teacher.
“Stop,” he moaned.
“Why?” She glanced at him. “My parents
won’t come out here.”
“As much as I adore that hot, skilled
mouth of yours, I want something else.” He gripped her hips and pulled her into
a standing position.
“Anything.” She bit her lip as she
waited for him to tell her.
“Let’s take these off.” He reached
under her skirt and pulled her panties down her legs.
She stepped out of them and kicked them
out of the way. “These cowboy boots are what did me in, sugar. We’re leaving
them on when we fuck.”
“You’re so dirty.”
“I know my good girl likes a bad boy.”
He lifted her skirt, glancing at her bare, exposed pussy. “I’m as bad as they
come.”
A chill swept over her when she
realized they were going to have sex outside, on her back porch. She’d never
done anything like this before. With Pax she wanted to do everything. Pulling
out his wallet, he retrieved the purple foil packet. He tossed the brown
leather wallet on the ground by her feet before lifting his hips and pushing
his jeans and boxers over them.

*** Trailer ***
*** Excerpt ***
When Claudia made her way
outside, the limo was there, but the driver wasn't. She looked around, but
didn't see him. She decided to get in and wait for him. He'd have to come back
for the car sooner or later.
She opened the door and
slipped inside, placing her bag on the floor. She was grateful the air
conditioning was on in the car, another perk the bus didn't have.
"Hello, sweetheart."
"Brody?" She looked
up and saw him sitting next to her. "What are you doing here?"
"I wanted to see
you." He moved his arm around her waist and pulled her close to him.
"I missed you." He freed her hair from her ponytail and shook it out
with his fingers so that it fell down her back and over her shoulders. "Much
better, princess."
She laughed because she had
just thought of him as The
Prince. If he only knew.
"What is it?"
"I'm happy to see
you." She giggled. "You make things much better."
"Hard day?"
She leaned closer to him, took
his face between her hands, and kissed him. At first, she moved slowly, but the
way he looked at her with those smoldering eyes told her everything she needed
to know. He was just as excited to see her as she was to see him.
She ran her tongue along his
lips, begging for entrance. He eagerly accepted as he parted them and slipped
his tongue inside her mouth. His breath was hot and his lips were hungry as he
kissed her with more force than she expected. She moved her hands up and
twisted her fingers in his hair, moving him closer to her.
He pulled her onto his lap,
pushed her hair to the side, and kissed her neck. She could feel his excitement
pressing against her hip. His erection was trapped between his stomach and her
side. He shifted his hips and rubbed himself into her.
She sighed against his mouth,
but then he pulled away.
"Claudia." The sound
of his voice was both desperate and breathless. "I could take you right
here, but that’s not what I want."
"It isn't?" She
didn't mean to sound disappointed.
"Let me rephrase
that." He moved her to sit beside him. "I would want nothing more
than to have my way with you right here, but I don't think either of us
intended it to be that way between us the first time."
"You think about our
first time?"
"Every second of the
day." He shrugged. "I'm a guy."
She laughed, but realized he
was right. She'd gotten carried away. It was the way he looked at her, the
scent of his body wash, all spice and cinnamon that drove her crazy.
"It's your fault,"
she said. "You're irresistible."
"I was thinking the same
thing about you."
She shook her head and looked
down. She felt his fingers on her chin in an instant, and then she was gazing
into his eyes. She loved those blue depths. They were soothing and made her
forget everything she had on her mind.
"You really need to take
my compliments better. I speak the truth." He kissed her.
"I'll keep telling you
how perfect you are and eventually you'll believe it."
She would never believe it. A
perfect woman wouldn't lead a man like Brody on. A perfect woman would tell him
the truth. She was far from perfect.

“Here?”
Amazon Barnes and Noble Goodreads
"A proposition?" What could he possibly have to offer her?
"I have to attend my cousin's wedding this weekend. Actually, I have to leave tomorrow afternoon. I don't want to go alone for reasons I don't wish to discuss right now. I need someone to accompany me. I'm offering that to you."
"And you think I'm 'to the point'?" Coda shrugged.
He smiled but didn't say anything. She couldn't stand the silence. She wanted to figure out his game. There had to be some sort of catch.
"You want me to go to a wedding with you?"
"It's in Connecticut. I would require your services until Sunday afternoon. All of your expenses would be paid, including a wardrobe which would be yours to keep after the weekend."
"You need a date?"
"I would need you to appear as my girlfriend."
"Is this a joke?" she asked.
"I wouldn't joke about something like this. I've thought the entire thing through."
"A man who looks like you should have no problem finding a real girlfriend to buy clothes for and flaunt in front of his family." She thought for a moment. "Unless there's something wrong with you."
"There's nothing wrong with me." He raised his voice a bit. "I had planned on attending alone but circumstances have changed. I'm in a bind and from what I gather, you are too."
Her instincts screamed to run in the opposite direction. She'd never been the type to fall for a scam. "I'm not interested in—"
"I'll pay you two hundred and fifty thousand dollars for your time."
"One hundred and twenty-five thousand today, if you agree." He pulled out a check from the inside pocket of the jacket he had draped on the back of the chair. He slipped the mint green paper across the table. "You'll get the rest on Sunday afternoon."
"That's fifty grand a day." She studied the check. It would take her years to make that kind of money working these shit-end jobs.
"I'm aware." He nodded as if the money meant nothing. "I'm asking for your time, a commodity I believe should be well compensated."
Too good to be true.
"Do you make it a habit of paying women to be your girlfriend?"
"Pretend girlfriend," he reminded her. "You would be the first."
"Why me?"
"Does it matter?"
"What exactly do you expect me to do for that money?"
"I told you." He narrowed his eyes. "I need a date for a long weekend. Everyone needs to think we're a couple."
"You're willing to pay me to go away with you for four days. I'm supposed to take your word we're going to a wedding in Connecticut? How do I know you won't kidnap me and want to do all sorts of kinky stuff to me? You could be some sex-obsessed lunatic."
"Kinky stuff?"
"Yeah, you know, like bondage and blindfolds."
"Do you like that sort of thing?" He tried to conceal his smirk.

Ari lay on the massage table, indulging
in the aroma of the scented oils. The strum of the music in the dimly lit room
almost lulled her to sleep. Her muscles were still relaxed from the massage
she’d just had. The massage therapist, Emma, told her to take a few minutes to
unwind and rest before getting up. Her eyes were closed but she could hear the
door of the small room open and close. She thought it was Emma leaving, but the
sound of footsteps coming toward her made her aware that she wasn’t alone.
“Did you enjoy your massage, kitten?”
Ari opened her eyes to find Martin
standing over her. She tried to sit up, but he placed his hand on her shoulder,
effectively holding her down. He wasn’t rough, but his touch made her stop and
obey. His subtle smile told her she had pleased him. He turned his attention to
Emma.
“Did you take care of my girl?” He
didn’t remove his hand from Ari’s shoulder.
“Yes, Sir.” She nodded, keeping her
gaze set on the floor.
A submissive.
“Good girl.” Martin took his free hand
and tilted Emma’s chin so she had to look at him.
Ari found the fact that he touched them
both at the same time strangely erotic. The room was small and intimate, and
Martin’s presence had somehow changed the tranquil atmosphere. “How are things
going with you and your Master?”
“Very well, Sir.” Emma swallowed hard,
her voice softer than before. Martin made her apprehensive. “You matched us
well. Thank you.”
“I’m glad. I’m eager to hear about your
progress. I’ll be observing the two of you very soon.” Without looking at Ari,
he removed his hand from her shoulder and ran it along her throat. “I’ll set it
up.” Martin released Emma’s chin and turned his attention back to Ari. “So
beautiful.” He moved his hand to her face, running his fingers along her lips.
“Isn’t she, Emma?”
Martin smirked when Ari’s breathed
picked up. He could read her so well. Mesmerized by his presence, she didn’t
speak or question what he wanted.
“Yes, Sir, she is.” Emma moved closer
to the table.
Ari should have been uncomfortable with
another woman in the room with them, but it didn’t seem wrong. She never would
have entertained the idea of having someone observe them, but with Martin she
wanted to explore and push limits. She wanted to become everything he needed.
He trailed his fingers along Ari’s jaw
and down to her neck, stopping just where the sheet covered her breasts. Her
nipples hardened when he hooked his finger under the cloth.
“I’d be happy to serve you, Sir,” Emma
timidly spoke. “I’d be honored to please you and your sub.”
Please me?
Ari wasn’t sure she was up for that.
Having Emma watch them was one thing, but playing with them? Could she take
things that far? Would Martin ask her to? She tried to calm her mind.
Objection, she reminded
herself. If she used her safe word, he’d have to stop. She had the power.
“Hmm.” Martin pulled the white material
down, revealing Ari’s breasts. “That’s a generous offer. One I’m sure your
Master will reward you for.” He circled the pad of his finger over Ari’s
nipples, causing her to stifle a moan.
Ari closed her eyes and squeezed her
legs together, trying to stop the throbbing between them. She abandoned any
thoughts of using her safe word. She lost herself in Martin’s touch. “I don’t
think my pet is ready for that.” He continued to pleasure her with his
fingers. “You may leave us.”
“Yes, Sir.” Ari heard Emma quickly exit
the room.
“Look at me.” Martin kneeled down next
to her face.
Opening her eyes, she stared directly
into his.
“I’m very pleased with your trust in
me. You were quite receptive with Emma’s presence in the room with us. You
didn’t even panic when she offered to play with us.” He pressed his lips
against her shoulder. “Would you entertain that idea?”
“I’m not sure.” She wanted to say yes,
but she wasn’t certain. “Not yet.”
He nodded as he ran his fingers through
her hair. “I appreciate your honesty. Perhaps you’ve mastered rule number one
after all. We’ll never do anything you’re not comfortable with.”
“I don’t want to share you.” She
smiled. “Would you touch her the way you touch me?”
“Of course not,” he said. “She is in a
monogamous relationship with her Dom. The same way you and I are.”
“But?”
“Shh.” Martin pulled the sheet the rest
of the way down, exposing her nakedness to him. “We’ll discuss it later. Right
now, I’d like to play.”

"You're willing to pay me to go away with you for four days. I'm supposed to take your word we're going to a wedding in Connecticut? How do I know you won't kidnap me and want to do all sorts of kinky stuff to me? You could be some sex-obsessed lunatic."
"Kinky stuff?"
"Yeah, you know, like bondage and blindfolds."
"Do you like that sort of thing?" He tried to conceal his smirk.

Coda opened the door
and walked into the bathroom as he shaved. His towel hung low off his hips. The
whole bathroom smelled of him. It made her insides quiver. When he caught a
glimpse of her in the mirror he dropped his razor into the sink.
“You dropped
something,” she said as she reached for her makeup bag. “This bathroom is big
enough for us to share. You don’t mind, do you?”
“You’re practically
naked.” He gawked at her lacy silver bra and matching thong.
“If we were on the
beach, you’d see me in my bikini.” She took in his damp skin, mesmerized by the
drop of water that trickled down his chest. She watched as it disappeared into
the towel just above his...
Stay in control. I
need to seduce him.
“We’re not on the
beach.” He picked up his razor and rinsed it off under the faucet. “If we were,
there is no way in hell I’d allow you wear something like that.”
“Really? You wouldn’t
allow me?”
“No.” He growled.
“Why not? Don’t you
like the way I look?”
“That’s not the
point.” He struggled not to look at her but she saw his gaze make contact with
her body in the reflection of the mirror. “I’d have to kill anyone who looked
at you.”
“You did pay for this
underwear, so I figured you should at least get to see it.”
“That was very kind of
you.” He concentrated on shaving.
She applied her makeup,
hoping he’d make some kind of move to let her know he was interested in her.
He’d admitted it the night before. She had to get him to act on it.
When he finished, he
wiped his face with a warm washcloth but missed a spot just under his left
earlobe. She shimmied her way in between him and the counter. He looked down at
her lips. She used that to her advantage as she slowly ran the tip of her
tongue along them.
“Let me help you.” She
reached up and swiped her thumb across his jaw and to the small spot of shaving
cream he’d left behind. “You missed some.” She held out her thumb to show him
before using his towel to wipe it off. She squeezed his rock hard thigh. “You’re
so muscular.”
“What are you doing?”
His words were controlled but clipped. “I thought we decided—”
“You decided.” She
closed the space between them. “I bet your chest is just as toned as your
legs.” She trailed her fingers along his pecks and down to his stomach, tracing
each of his well-defined six pack abs during her exploration. The lower she
went, the harder his breathing became.
“Stop taunting me.” He
lifted her up and sat her on the cool tiled counter, spreading her legs as he
stepped in between them.
“Or what?” she
challenged him.
“You’ll find out just how aggressive I can be.” He gripped her inner
thighs. “But you probably like it rough.”

A chance meeting or a
calculated encounter? Someone is in for a surprise.
Brooklyn Conservatory
student Sammy Falcone lives a quiet and modest life. She's busy studying
classical music, playing her cello, and trying to make ends meet. After she
learns of her deceased mother's secret that may involve the Cannon family, she
heads to a wedding to catch a glimpse of the privileged clan, never expecting
to come face-to-face with them.
Tyler Cannon must
abandon his wild, partying ways and step up to help his brother Spencer run the
family advertising business. When he meets Sammy at his brother's wedding he's
immediately taken by the reserved beauty. Her innocence and simple lifestyle
intrigue him enough to become a one-woman man.
Sammy is drawn to
Tyler's charm and the attention he shows her. Once she gets to know him, the
secrets of her mother's past are no longer important. The problem is Spencer
has been suspicious of her from the beginning. Will Spencer's
overprotectiveness of his family ruin her chances with Tyler? And if the truth
comes out, will Sammy be able to convince Tyler that she never meant his family
any harm?
Thank you, Liz! It's because of people like you that I keep doing what I do. I appreciate your support and friendship more than you could know. I feel awful that I didn't respond to your tweet. I swear I never saw it! Thanks for being so persistent. xoxo
