Cover Reveal: Endless Affinity by Brooklyn Taylor



RELEASE DATE: AUGUST 1ST




 SYNOPSIS:

Grace Ingram made one mistake that sent her down a path that was full of heart break and misery.  In a moment of hesitation her stubbornness left her filled with doubts in her mind that could cause her to sacrifice the love of her life.

 Grace was a blue-collar, strong, independent Texas girl that had been with the same guy since high school. Now at the age of 26 she has been asked the one thing most women are waiting and wishing for, but not Grace. The last thing she wanted was to get married and start a family- especially with a guy that had never had to work for a living. She knew Kyle was the only one she had ever loved with all her heart, trusting and allowing a level of intimacy she would never allow with another. After all he was the only man that knew of the abuse she suffered as a high school teenager. The differences in their lifestyles were in such contrast, though, that it was hard for her to let her guard down.  Grace had no idea the battle she would really be fighting once she realized she was losing Kyle for good.

Kyle Chandler was everything every woman wanted. He was rich, gorgeous and full of charm. He was a ladies’ man but the only girl he had eyes for was Grace, his high school sweetheart. He had the world handed to him on a silver platter. The one thing he couldn’t have and wanted deeply was to make Grace his, but he hadn’t been successful at accomplishing that. After years of reluctance he decides to take the risk and ask her to be his, only to be met with the answer he dreaded.

Now, the three girls are back together, trying to juggle their friendships and their busy lives. McKoy is beginning to take over her successful family Vineyard, and Ashlynn getting ready for the arrival of her baby with Cooper.

Will the people that come into their lives keep them apart? Or serve to make them realize the love that they really share?

Do you have to really lose the most important person in your life to realize how special they are? And how hard will you fight to regain that love?

Can Grace overcome her indecisiveness, confident in the love she and Kyle share, knowing they are meant to be together? And is love really enough?

CLP_BANNER_FOR_PROFILE
 Review: 5+++++ STARS!!
 This book!!! It was so intense from beginning to end!! I was on edge the entire time ha I would laugh one second then say WTF the next and I loved every minute of it. I fell in love with Dominic and Ashley in Ashley's Bend and I just fell more in love with them in this book. Throughout the whole book I just want to scream at Ashley for one thing then Dominic for another ha they were a mess but such a lovely mess. I don't want to give any spoilers away because this is a book you need to experience for yourself. This book will grab you and suck you in, you will not be able to put it down. All of the characters will grab your attention in one way or another. Figure Eight is in my top 5 reads for 2014. Fantastic job Cassy Roop!! Cannot wait for the third book!!!

BLURB


-LUCY-

There is a love so fierce it cannot be measured. 

A heart so strong it will never slow. 

There is a promise so sure it can never lie.

He promised me that love forever.

Even when it wasn't enough.


-CAMERON-

Forever. Everlasting. Eternal.

There is no measure of time. 

No sounds of the ticking of a clock. 

Just the rising and falling of the sun.

And our own sense of forever. 


But our forever isn't always.

BOOK TRAILER
















EXCERPT 


 


"I hate that guy," Logan jerks his head toward Jake and 


a new kid.


"The new kid? Dylan?"


He nods. "He thinks he owns the school."


"Really?" I glare over at them. "Apparently he kills 


it on the basketball court, but I dunno." I shrug. "He 


hasn't said two words to me. He seems quiet."


"Those are the ones you have to worry about, Cam. The 


quiet broody assholes get all the girls. Better watch him 


around that new girl of yours."


I play dumb. "What new girl?"


"Shut up, asshole. You don't think I notice you 


watching her all the fucking time?"


I lift my chin. "I think if there's an asshole in this 


entire school to watch out for, it's you."


He laughs and adjusts his cap. "You don't need to worry 


about me. I'm not into stealing my friend's girls." He 


shoves his hand in his catcher's glove and smacks my arm 


with it. "Say the word. Claim her. I promise to stay away 


and I'll make sure she's untouchable to everyone else."


"I'm not an asshole and she isn't property. I can't own 


her."


"If that's what you want." He raises an eyebrow. "She's 


cute. In a couple years she'll be hot. Guys will be all 


over her. I'm just trying to help out." 


I think about what he's saying, and he makes a good 


point. Only he's wrong—she's hot now. "Fine. I claim her. 


She's mine."


His smirk is instant. "You can't own someone, you pig. 


She isn't property."


I laugh. "Fuck you."


Jake struts over to us. "Ya reckon that new kid Dylan 


can hang out with us this arvo? He seems like a top 


bloke."


Logan's gaze moves to me, confusion clear on his face. 


I shrug. He lets out a chuckle before gripping both of 


Jake's shoulders and shaking him gently. He looks him 


right in the eye, speaking slowly and clearly. "I have no 


idea what the fuck you just said."



The More Series 




More Than This, #1



*Mikayla* 


In one night my fairytale ended. Or it may have begun. This is my story of friendship and love, heartbreak and desire, and the strength to show weakness. 




*Jake* 


One night I met a girl. A sad and broken girl, but one more beautiful than any other. She laughed through her sadness, while I loved through her heartbreak. 




*This is our story of a maybe ever after.* 




He was right. It made no difference whether it was 6 months or 6 years. 

I couldn’t undo what had been done. I couldn’t change the future. 

I couldn’t even predict it. 

It was one night. 

One night when everything changed. 

It was so much more than just the betrayal. 

It was the Tragedy. 

The Deaths. 

The Murders. 

But it was also that feeling. 

The feeling of falling.

More Than Her, #2


For every action there is an equal or opposite reaction." For every choice you make there are rewards, or there are consequences. It was my choice to walk away the first time. And my choice to chase her the second. But sometimes you don't get a choice, and all you get are the consequences.” "Being deeply loved by someone gives you strength, while loving someone deeply gives you courage.” Unless that someone is Logan Matthews. Because loving him didn't give me the strength to walk away. It didn't give me the courage to fight for him. And when it was over, all it gave me was a broken heart.

More Than Him, #3


"Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness, that most frightens us." - Marianne Williamson

We live in a world of darkness and shadows,
where monsters hide and aim to ruin.
And they did.
They ruined us and turned our dreams into nightmares.
But now we're back.
And we're fighting.
Not just for us, or for each other, but for our light.

EXCERPT:

My body isn’t used to this much alcohol. The few glasses of wine I normally drink don’t have me in the middle of a dance “orgy” without remembering how I got there. Sweat is dripping down my neck and tickling the space between my breasts. After the third round of drinks, bought by three different men just wanting to get in my pants, I feel relaxed yet out of control. Noelle is nowhere to be found and in my drunken state I’m not even the least bit concerned about it. The music has taken over my body and I can feel myself letting go of all the stress and anxiety that Robert has caused me. I don’t care who is watching because at this moment I feel like the sexiest person in here.

With my eyes closed I rub my hands along my hips all the way to my hair, pulling it off my neck into a makeshift ponytail. The beat of the music moves through me like an electric wave. When a cool puff of air passes over the back of my neck it feels like water in the Sahara. Larger hands than I’ve ever felt before unexpectedly come around my waist and pull me back into a rock hard chest. My breathing becomes more ragged as the mystery man whispers in my ear.

“Are you hot, baby?” He asks, his hot breath sending shivers down my spine.

My senses are on high alert and despite the fact that I haven’t a clue what he looks like, those four words turn me on instantly. If his voice can do that to me I’d love to see what his enormous hands are capable of. Our bodies connect and sway to the music as his mouth continues to hover just above my shoulder causing tingles to radiate through my body. I can feel his lips grazing the crease of my neck and when he nips my skin my knees go weak. My head falls back involuntarily giving him more access to continue his sensual assault. He smells delicious, and the soft suctioning kisses he places up my neck cause me to moan in anticipation. I have to see the man who is releasing all my inhibitions.

Reluctantly I turn my heated body around feeling the loss of his soft lips, but what I’m rewarded with is a vision of godliness. Standing at what appears to be well over six feet tall is the most panty-dropping specimen that I have ever laid my eyes upon. I should have turned around sooner! His plain black t-shirt hugs every single slender muscle in his sexy ass arms. The faded blue jeans he wears are snug, even more so where his zipper lies, showing me how much he is turned on. His dark brown hair is a styled mess; short on the sides but longer up top. I can’t help but wonder what it would feel like to grab hold of it and tug. Hard. A grin flashes across his face, as if he’s read my mind, and I see a hint of just one dimple on the right side of his mouth. His green eyes appear hungry as they shamelessly take me in from my toes to my own starving eyes. I swallow hard and try to catch my breath.

“I thought you looked good from behind but damn if you don’t look heavenly from this angle,” he says loudly, over the music.

He grabs both of my hands, circling them around his neck. With our height difference my forehead falls into his chest perfectly, as if we are two pieces of a puzzle. I try to control my breathing; the alcohol is coursing through my veins now. Freeing my hands from their hold, they find their way down and softly graze over his pecs and then the ripple of his abs. They falter as they come in contact with not a six pack but, a …1,2,3,… eight pack! I see his chest rising and falling rapidly. I think he must be as turned on by me as I am by him. Impossible.
