About INDECISION

Jackie Davenport will try anything once, especially in the bedroom. Anything except falling in love. She lives a carefree existence packed full of fun, but free from emotional entanglements and that’s just how she wants to keep it. When she meets the new police officer in town, she’s unable to deny the connection between them. His over confidence and bullish ways grate on her…still she can’t help but find herself falling into his bed AND falling for him.

Jamie McTavish is man enough to admit that he probably didn’t make the best first impression when he met the 911 Operator. That doesn’t mean there isn’t still sizzling sexual tension between them. He’s a man of action and he’s not content to sit on the sidelines until Jackie works out her issues. But trying to tame this tiger might be too big of a challenge for even him.

Excerpt

I pulled the heavy wood door underneath the stairs open and entered the wine cellar. The walls were lined with custom shelving, filled top to bottom with an assortment of different wine bottles, the scent of the cedar heavy in the air.

 

I stopped short.

 

Jamie? What the hell was he doing in here?

 

“You following me, hot stuff?” he said with a practiced smile.

 

“Of course not! I just came to get my salad from the fridge. What’re you doing here?” I propped my hands on my hips, irritated once again to be forced into such close proximity to him.

 

“Same.” He nodded toward the fridge he was holding open. “I brought some dip.” He closed the door and leaned against it with his arms crossed over his chest. The way his muscles bunched drew my eyes to them. He pushed up and stalked toward me.

 

It wasn’t warm in here, but I suddenly felt like I was overheating, as if I was still out in the summer sun. As he moved closer, I backed up into one of the shelves, the tops of the bottles pressing into my back.

 

Finally, he came to a stop mere inches away. “Don’t you think it’s about time we addressed whatever’s going on between us?”

 

I guffawed. “There’s nothing going on between us.”

 

His gray eyes narrowed. “That’s bullshit and you know it. Why would you follow me in here otherwise?” Reaching out, he ran a finger down from the base of my throat, dragging it slowly over my heated skin to the juncture of my cleavage, then let his hand drop.

 

I didn’t stop him. Why didn’t I stop him?

 

I suppressed a small shiver and fought the urge to close my eyes, instead pinning him with a glare.

Blurb:

Callie

Blood, sweat, hard work, and a disconcerting lack of tears—my entire life—was meant to culminate in a flourish of glory and significance.

I’d thought I’d always known exactly what that meant.

But I’d had the timing wrong by about three minutes.

I knew now.

This moment wasn’t everything. The one person I found myself wanting more than anything during it was.

Nik

One preconceived notion can haunt you for the entirety of your life.

I thought I owed it to myself and to everyone who’d ever backed me to do what was expected. What was right. What I was supposed to do.

But nothing is forbidden in love. Not circumstances or propriety or the denial of the object of said affection.

I knew now.

This was it.

If I wanted it, I had to take it.

This gymnastics love story is more than grips, rips, and battered hands.

For Calia Nickleson and Nikolai Bagrov, it was everything.

Body: A leap of marital proportions.

Des has had her share of heartbreak. To protect herself, she likes her men cheap, easy, and for one night. Meeting O awakens a hope inside her; a hope that maybe there is a happily ever after for her.

O is virile, handsome, a gentleman, and young; maybe too young. He’s also a patient and Des doesn’t date the patients; not anymore. Unable to deny the attraction, she asks O out, against her better judgment.

Des is keeping secrets, dangerous ones, and O is more than willing to fight for her, no matter the cost. Convincing her that he’s the one for her, no matter their age difference, Des and O decide to take a leap that will change their lives.

With an attraction so sudden and so strong there’s bound to be problems.

Synopsis

He’ll do whatever it takes to win—on and off the ice.

Luc Richard is the hottest player in the NHL—and it has nothing to do with hockey. His racy relationship with his supermodel ex set the tabloids on fire but nearly put his career on ice. To avoid being traded, Luc agrees to take a break from the spotlight—and from women—and spend the off-season at home in Silver Bay, Maine. It’s the perfect plan… until he reconnects with Rose.

Rose Caplan is tired of being shy, sweet, and safe. She’s ready for passion, romance—and Luc. Having loved him longer than she can remember, she’s finally ready to prove she’s not the same innocent little girl he once knew. Off the ice Luc doesn’t do games, but this new Rose makes him feel like playing a little dirty. If he’s really got a shot at her heart then he’s not just playing to win. He’s playing for keeps.

Review

“Rose Caplan is sweet, smart and definitely beautiful, but she has all these fantastical ideas about love. She’s a romantic and she dreams of an epic love story with a Prince Charming and a happily ever after. She deserves nothing less, but I’m not at all interested in that.”

WOW, this book took me by surprise, I expected a fast and fun hockey book but I got so much more. I started this book late one night expecting to read a bit then pick it up in the morning some more but before I knew it two am rolled around and it was impossible to stop til I reached the very last page. I adored Luc and Rose simply stole my heart. I read a lot of hockey books and really enjoyed the first book in this series, but Making A Play out them all to shame.

“I don’t know what’s holding him back but I do know it won’t last forever. He’ll either fuck you senseless or spontaneously combust.”  “Then Luc should start carrying a fire extinguisher with him,” I snark “Because I’m betting it’ll be the latter.”

The Hometown Players Series revolve around the Caplan sisters and the Garrison brothers and their surrogate brother Luc. Rose, the youngest of the Caplan girls, has very ideological views on love and knows that her romance story worthy love is out there and ever since she was 15 years old she has crushed on her good friend Luc. Luc is three years older than Rose and after having lived with an alcoholic single mother, he doesn’t want to be anyone’s prince charming.

‘I want to ask him what the hell he’s doing, but it’s a stupid question. I know what he’s doing – he’s dry-humping me within an inch of my life and pretending it’s dancing. I just can’t believe he’s doing it to me.’

After a breakup with his casual hookup Luc has been getting some bad press and add that to his team not preforming great and he has a ton of pressure on his shoulders. He knows Rose is beautiful and one of his best friends but he can’t be what she needs so he treats her like a little sister which just infuriates her. Soon Rose is dressing sexier and acting more seductive and it is getting harder and harder to ignore the way he is feeling. But never able to fully give himself to her without damaging his career he makes the one girl who deserves the world to hide in the shadows.

‘She wants me. Fleur wants me. There is nothing else to say.’

There was so much I loved about this book. First off, Luc has been there for Rose since they were young and while he never gave into her crush he flirted and whispered sweet things in french to her that just melted my heart and panties. He was sex personified and everything that came out of his mouth had my heart thumping just a tad harder. Rose was silly and youthful. She was the kind of girl you wanted to be your friend because you know she would make spending time together a blast. There comes a time in this book like many other where incidents occur that will put a crack in perfection they could have been. My pulsed raced and my brain refused to shut down until I got past the worst of it all. Sweet, sexy and with characters you root for the whole way through this is definitely a book I will be recommending to all sports romance loving readers. Every moment in this book was a joy and I cannot wait to get to the third book in the series.

Alasdair

(Masters Among Monsters, #1)

 

Ella Frank
Releasing October 13, 2015

Dear Readers,

 Before you embark on this journey into my new erotic paranormal series, Masters Among Monsters, I wanted to let you know what you can expect from this trilogy.

 Each novel will center around a different relationship that will also span across the course of the series, and they will include elements of: M/M, M/F, F/F & M/M/M. That sounds crazy right? I hope that doesn’t scare you off because I promise it makes more sense in context. More so than paranormal, please keep in mind this is an erotic series. It will be what you have come to expect from me, but with a twist.

 These will be the dark and sinful stories of the Masters among Monsters. They will not be standalones.

 Xx Ella

Blurb:

A dangerous allure…

Alasdair Kyriakous is one of the most feared and ruthless vampires in existence. Bestowed eternal life by the Ancient Vasilios, his name carries much weight across the continents.

But he is a mystery to his kind, an anomaly among the self-indulgent. While he enjoys the pleasures of the flesh, he is exceptionally particular in who he takes them from, priding himself on his ironclad self-control.

Yet with one look, and one man, his control will become a thing of the past, and Alasdair will discover—eternal life doesn’t always last forever…

A deadly attraction…

Thrust into a world he never knew existed, Leo Chapel has awoken in his worst nightmare. One that is being orchestrated by the dangerously, mesmerizing vampire, Alasdair.

He’s taken him hostage, convinced that Leo is hiding something after he managed to incapacitate him, and has vowed to do whatever is necessary to discover what that is—even if Leo himself has no clue.

A forbidden desire that could destroy a race…

Brought together by a force neither are aware of, both Alasdair and Leo are ignorant that they are pawns to a higher power. All they know, is the more time they spend trying to uncover the others secrets, the stronger the attraction becomes.

But enemies are watching, from afar and from within, and when decisions that will alter lives and destinies have to be made—can a dead grey heart learn to beat again?

The stakes have never been higher for Carolina Cold Fury goalie Ryker Evans. With his contract running out, he’s got a year left to prove he’s still at the top of his game. And since his wife left him, Ryker has been balancing life as a pro-hockey star and a single parent to two daughters. Management is waiting for him to screw up. The fans are ready to pounce. Everybody’s taking dirty shots—except for the fiery redhead whose faith in Ryker gives him a fresh start.

As the league’s only female general manager, Gray Brannon has learned not to mix business with pleasure. And yet even this tough, talented career woman can’t help breaking her own rules as she gives Ryker everything she’s got. She hopes their hot streak will last forever, but with Ryker’s conniving ex plotting to reclaim her man, the pressure’s on Gray to step up and save a tender new love before it’s too late.

Review

“I’m doing what feels right to me. You feel right to me.” “We can’t” I murmur. “We can,” he cuts me off, rubs a thumb on the side of my neck. “I’m you boss . . . it’s inappropriate.” “And yet I don’t give a shit.”

Ryker is the fourth standalone in the Cold Fury series by Sawyer Bennett and I was hooked from the beginning. I love an office romance and mix in a sexy hockey player and characters I have come to love and you get a book I couldn’t put down. I knew after reading Zack’s book that I was going to love Ryker, the man, and he was everything I imagined him to be. Kind-hearted and a great dad, he treats everyone with respect even his ex who really doesn’t deserve it. I honestly wish all real men were Rykers, the world would just be a better place.

“I’d like to be around you even if you didn’t do magical things to me with your penis.”

Ryker Evans is the hot, slightly older (think early 30s to the other players 20s) single dad goalie who is making a comeback on the Cold Fury team. Balancing being a full time single parent to two little girls and professional hockey player does not leave much time to get back in the dating scene, especially getting back out there with his new boss. Gray Brannon is taking over her dads spot as General Manger of the team and it is not going over well with many of the players. As the first female GM in the NHL she has a lot to prove and getting involved with the one player who fully supports her might not be the best idea. But how long can they deny chemistry and remain just friends and co-workers?

“There is nothing that can consume me as much as Ryker Evans can,”

The Cold Fury books are quickly becoming books I can count on to give me a well rounded story with characters I can count on loving. An easy read with just a touch of drama and angst, Ryker was the perfect way to spend a lazy Sunday afternoon.

Title: The End Game

“Professional athletes are

pillars of their respective communities. They are heroes in the eyes of boys

and girls and are expected to conduct themselves in a manner that positively

represents their community.”

The public loves a good scandal. Seeing someone

fall from the pinnacle of success makes a great headline. No one knows that

better than I do. What started out as a promising career in college football,

spiraled into scandal and shame.

But being a hero is easier said then done.

Especially when there are those who expected to see the great Brody Madden

fail. I craved nothing except being the best—willing to do anything to prove

them wrong. But I went too far, and I tried too hard, and it broke me.

“At the time of going to print,

Jordan Elliott was unavailable for comment.”

I met Brody Madden in my senior year of college. An

Australian native on an international scholarship, I was the female soccer

sensation with stars in her eyes and no room for a hotshot wide receiver with a

chip on his shoulder.

But a heart bursting with ambition and a driving

fire to succeed isn’t made of stone. I became his strength, his obsession, and

the greatest love of his life. Only I wasn’t there when he needed me most.

This is a story about love and a game that takes

everything. Where the path to glory is paved with sacrifice. Where pressure

makes you, or breaks you, and triumph is born in the ashes of failure. Where

two people’s end game will change everything.

Excerpt

 

Shutting the door, I walk up the slight incline behind Brody. He sits down at the top of the crest and pats the grassy spot beside him.

“You didn’t mention this part when you explained our date.”

“I can’t give away all my secrets now, can I?”

The grass is a thick blanket on the ground and when I stretch out flat, the rich, earthy scent of soil sweeps over me. My eyes lift to the sky and that’s when I get it. It’s perfectly clear and millions of stars are scattered diamonds twinkling above us—bright and magical.

“Besides,” Brody adds as he lies down beside me and sweeps out his arm, encompassing all of it. “How do you explain that?”

He’s right. You can’t. “It’s beautiful.”

“Is this what the stars are like for you back home?”

“No. Back home it’s different.”

“Different how?”

Homesickness swamps me. As beautiful as Texas is, it’s not Australia. Somehow the stars are always brighter where you belong. “Because there’s no place like home.”

“You’re wrong.”

I turn my head and stare at Brody. He’s not looking at me. His head is tilted toward the sky, eyes riveted on the beauty above him. My gaze follows the line of his profile. From the curl of his hair to the perfect line of his nose, down to the mouth I want kissing me right this very instant.

“Home’s not a place where you live. It’s a feeling.” His hand nudges my own. An invitation. I twine my fingers with his and he squeezes them lightly. “Whether it’s where you are, like the football field, or who you’re with.” Brody turns his head, looking at me when he says that. It’s comforting because it unites us somehow, like it’s slowly becoming us against the world. “You can be anywhere, Jordan. Home will follow you if you follow your heart.”

My breath hitches from the beautiful simplicity of his words. Before I can talk myself out of it, I roll over and straddle him. My knees hug his hips, and he stares up at me from my seated position. My pulse pounds a heavy beat in the silence. Thump, thump, thump. It’s so loud in my ears I’m sure he can hear it.

“Show me,” I breathe. A gleam lights his dark eyes, and he sucks his lower lip inside his mouth. He knows what I’m asking, but I spell it out anyway. “Show me one of those wicked things.”

In a move that steals the air from my lungs, he takes both my hands and pulls me down against the broad width of his chest. I’m rolled over and underneath him before I can blink. The squirm in my hips is instinctive, the ache between my thighs relentless.

“Careful what you ask for,” Brody says roughly, every exquisite inch of his body pressing down on mine.

“Why?”

His lips curve. “Because when I give it to you, it won’t be enough.”

My fingers trail down the side of his face, grazing the firm jaw, cupping his cheek in my palm. Foreboding swamps me. I’m falling hard into uncharted territory, and all I see is a broken mess at the end. How is this going to end well for either of us?

“You’re an arrogant man, Brody Madden,” I whisper.

He brings his face to mine, so close I see the brilliant gold in his eyes, like flecks of light in the dark. “And you, Jordan Elliott, will be the woman who brings me to my knees,” he whispers against my lips.

“Show me,” I beg on a shaky breath.

Brody’s lashes lower and he presses a kiss to the corner of my mouth. I tilt my chin upwards, inviting more. Rather than take my lips like I ache for him to do, he shifts sideways and begins nipping at my jaw. His breath is a rasp when he reaches my earlobe, taking it between his teeth. A sharp pinch from his bite forces a whimper from my throat.

“More?” he asks, drawing back to look at me.

“Is that even a real question?”

Brody chuckles as I slide my hand up and around his nape, dragging his mouth down to mine. He groans and kisses me gently, once, and then twice.

“Brody,” I whisper, and he kisses me again, forcing my mouth open hard like he can’t hold himself in check anymore. My hair is loose and he fists chunks of it in both hands while his tongue rubs against mine, hot and aggressive. It’s almost too much, and when I jerk away I’m left gasping.

Brody doesn’t pause. He ducks his head to my neck, his tongue tasting its way down. He finds my pulse point and sucks. It’s fierce and my back arches involuntarily. His mouth shifts further down, moving on before he leaves a mark.

Sitting up, he takes the neckline of my dress in both hands. Five dainty buttons hold it together. A single wrench will rip the flimsy fabric in two. He pauses and looks at me, inhaling raggedly. “Jordan … I don’t want to ruin it.”

My brow furrows. I glance to the hands poised on my dress. They’re tense, veins straining under his skin. My head is lost in a fog when my gaze returns to his face. “Ruin my dress?”

Brody groans, a deep sound of regret and frustration. “Us.”

“You don’t want to ruin us?”

He draws his hands away from the neckline of my dress. “No.”

“How would you do that?”

“I don’t know. I just get this feeling I’m going to.” He shifts away, moving off me and rolling to his back. I turn my head. Brody’s gaze is back on the stars. I watch his throat work as he swallows, the pulse in his neck pounding visibly. “All I’ve ever wanted is to be the best. Whatever it takes. I’ll do anything. That’s how I’ll ruin us, Jordan. How can something so sweet survive a sentiment so dark?”

I roll to my side, holding my head in my hand. Cupping his face with the other, I nudge gently until he’s looking at me. “I won’t let you.”

Brody’s voice is urgent, his eyes fierce. “Promise me.”

I can’t shake the apprehension. It’s set in my bones and when I speak it feels like a lie. “I promise.”
