Excerpts:

Excerpt 1 –

“What’s got you looking distant?” Jace comes out from the bathroom, covered only by a towel.

I look up and smile guiltily. “When did I become such a snob?” I ask him, keeping my tone light. I’m arguing with my inner self, appalled at my own mental path. “The bedding to this place is going to have us itching all night.” I train my eyes upon him and sigh. “When did that become one of my biggest problems?”

Jace laughs at my problem and my faces pulls into a frown.

“If cheap sheets are your biggest problem right now, Lee, I am going to sleep a happy, happy man tonight.” He watches me, seeing my shoulders slump slightly under his teasing tone. “Maybe you could inspect the quality of towels too,” he queries, waltzing over to me. He pulls the front off from his body, holding out to me. “They’re rather stiff.”

I bite my lip and allow my eyes to trail down his partially glistening body and find the towel parted a delicious amount. I can already see he is hard and I release my lip. My mouth dries as I reach out for the flannel material and I feel lust filter through my system, stealing my woes and casting them aside.

I smirk at the sight, grinning like a Cheshire cat. “Definitely stiff.” I nod and agree and release the towel. Jace does too and the white flannel sheet drops entirely, leaving my husband bare and turned on before me. “Really stiff,” I exhale, my breathing drawing thin. His penis is directly within my eye level and I can’t help but lick my lips.

Jace doesn’t even utter a word as he reaches out for me. He takes my hand, mock disgust smother his face as he gazes upon what little I have on. “You’re a little too overdressed for my liking,” he speaks with minor revulsion as he pulls me up to my feet.

Excerpt 2 –

I look away. This is total humiliation bestowed upon me, and I can’t hide away.

Clara’s heels click upon the concrete floor until she’s by my side. I’m forced to look up when she grabs at my hair, pulling it into a ball at the base of my skull. The pain heats across my skull in tiny prickling screams. “Bark, dog,” she orders and I refuse. Her hand tightens upon my hand my hair and I hiss out, but still disobey. She releases me, throwing me forward as she does so. “Apparently she’s shy.”

“Fuck off,” I ground out. I’m pissed that I’ve allowed this to happen. I’m annoyed at my past self for ever allowing ClaraDelvine to take advantage of me, I’m furious that I allowed Jaceto get caught in this, and I’m incensed that everything I know is now Clara’s to do with what she likes.

“Or maybe not!” Clara claps her hands together but remains beside me. “Joely, here, came back out of her own choice, of course! She was presented with a bargain that she couldn’t give up on. Do or die as they say.” She walks toward the rest of the girls. “I’d like you all to welcome her back lovingly, but remember she is my viper dog. And remember, if you get down with the dogs, you will get up with fleas.”

Author Info:

I used to be just another Fanfiction writer! That was until one person showed real interest in my work. And then another, and then another, until I had this whole group of people reviewing like crazy and wanting original work from me. I’d spent years writing for free online, I didn’t believe I had it in me to publish something!

But I’m glad I did!! I never imagined pushing my work and striving to reach my ultimate. I never imagined I’d be the girl who started The Viper Rooms! But who am I to deny the inspiration when it hits?

I love writing, it’s a lifeline. I love creating a world that others fall into. I love having the control to make a whole new world. It’s like a dependency, an addictive one. It’s one of the things I’m extremely proud of.

As much as I complain, I love the mini dialogues that go on in my head, the plotlines that attack me when I least expect them to. The ones that jump to life at the most inappropriate times and drive me totally crazy!!

For now I split my life between writing, dreaming, working, and volunteering with children.
