loved nothing more than reading books and I read everything I could get my
hands on. Elephant Walk by Robert Standish was one of my earliest reads.
birthday gift, the dye was set. I wanted to be in the worlds that the authors
wrote about, live the book, be the book. Other books that filled my need for
adventure and romance were ‘We Of the Never Never’ and ‘Blue Fin’, both books I
won as literary prizes at school.
Mark Twain, Charles Dickens, Tolkien, Jules Verne, Stephanie Meyer,
and so many, many more!
childhood, it was nothing new to me to write my thoughts down, often my stories
would come from the magical place of my dream state.
and I often ask myself, ‘are these really dreams?’ , ‘could the people I
write about have been real?’ , or ‘are they my own distant past
lives that I have somehow tapped into?
to ponder?

Bittersweet Trust on Goodreads.com
RELEASE DATE: November 18, 2014
BLURB:
I let every wall I had built around my heart crumble to the ground for him. He told me to trust him, and I did. I never thought that trusting someone would be my biggest downfall.
I listened to his promises and thought I could believe him. I actually thought I could be the reason he would stay…
I can’t trust him.
She can’t trust me.
I hate him.
She hates me….
… I’m sure of it. Why shouldn’t she? I knocked her up and then walked out on her. It’s better this way. I’m fucked up, lost, and no good for her or our baby. The pain is unbearable without her, but she deserves better… At least that’s what I keep telling myself.
I still love her.
I loved him.
She loves me, and she knows it…
… But this time she doesn’t want me anymore, doesn’t need me anymore. Suddenly, it occurs to me that I may have actually lost her for the rest of my life.
I need her to love me.
I still love him…
With the broken promises of the past threatening to destroy us, I don’t think we can give in and move forward. Everything has changed between us; I have changed. There are risks I’m not willing to take anymore…
If anything, I’ve learned love is nothing without trust.

EXCERPT:
I watch Mimi walk down the corridor to the restrooms and can’t stop myself from reaching out for her. I need her touch like I need air. I need to feel her warmth beneath my fingers.
A gasp leaves her lips as I turn her around and softly push her against the wall. Her eyes have a crazed look in them as she scowls at me.
“Let go of me,” she demands in a clipped tone. I laugh. Well, internally, not out loud. This is the thing about Mimi and me: I give and she chases; she gives and I chase. One of us is always pushing the other away. I just wonder who’s going to give in first this time.
“No. I made the mistake of letting go of you a long time ago,” I reply. Mimi snarls, and I mean actually snarls, at me.
“It wasn’t a mistake, Corey. It was a choice made by you, the arrogant prick that you are. If you love me half as much as you say you do, you would leave me alone.” She pulls herself from my touch after spitting venom at me, which I know I deserve. I deserve a lot worse, actually. However, I want her. No, I need her. I have to do whatever I can to get her back.
“No, I wouldn’t. People who love something with their whole body and soul never give up on the one thing that means the most to them,” I whisper, leaning into her. I watch her body shudder at my mere presence. She can tell me I have no hold over her heart all she wants, but her body tells me otherwise.
“Maybe that’s the problem. You forgot to love me with your soul and decided that loving me with just your body was a better idea.” Her head is tilted to the side as she gives me one of the dirtiest looks she ever has, and I’ve seen a lot of her dirty looks.
“Loving you with just my body would be the most exhilarating thing in the world, but somehow you have weaseled your feisty ass into my heart; and you see, once you land yourself there, there isn’t any way to get out…” My lips are right next to her ear, and I can practically feel my teeth grazing against her skin.
“My advice to you, sweetheart, is to never fight the inevitable… I’ve tried. Believe me when I say I have tried to fight against whatever it is that is between us. It never works… It just makes me want you more.”
Mimi’s nail digs into my chest, pulling me from my very dirty thoughts. “Things have changed, Corey. I have changed, and there is more to us than some stupid game. There’s a baby involved, and though I know that doesn’t mean shit to you, it means everything to me.”
She thinks that baby means nothing to me?
“That baby and you… “ I can’t even find the words to say what I want to say. I want to make her understand what I was going through without hurting her. It has always been her who I wanted.
“You guys are my world,” I simply say. I watch as astonishment shows in her features and then morphs into anger.
“Well, you aren’t ours. At least not anymore. This is more than just a game, Corey. This is my life. My heart. My emotions. If you intend on being a jackass, then you can leave.”
She turns on her heels, faster than I can respond, giving me no time to reach out and grab her.

SERIES: Temptation Series (Book Four)
BLP REVIEW ~ REBECCA
Mint Sauce Anyone?
With a Side of Cock?
Intrigued?????
Meet Carly
Meet Dik
Carly enjoys her carefree life — free from obstructions, free from drama, and free from anchors that tie her down to anyone or anything. She likes making her own decisions and not having to answer to anyone. Her life is good. Uncomplicated.
But Carly is set for a shake-up when she is introduced to Derek at her best friend’s birthday. Firefighter-Derek. Drop-dead-gorgeous-Derek. Blue-eyed-dirty-talking-cocky-as-hell-Derek. Their instant attraction has them both questioning their outlook on life, on relationships … and on love.
In the four years since I had my first kindle I have never, not once in all the books, across all the genres I read, highlighted so much in one book. The one liners are outstanding, the hotness factor and chemistry is a panty mint sauce tsunami of epic proportions and, unusually, I adored the heroine as much as, if not more than, the hero. She is just that ABSOFUCKINGLUTELY FABULOUS.
#TOTALDIVALOVEFEST
Carly embraces life full on, balls to the wall, fast and furious, loyal, unapologetically girly, a porn star in bed, the most fabulous flirt with just a little penchant for drama and no filter whatsoever. She has a ‘joie de vivre’ that calls to you and draws you in. Her inner monologues every time she came into contact with Dik were hilarious and her interactions with her friends and his had me wishing I had a photographic memory because I damn sure want to use some of these one liners,
Holy mother of vaginal spasms, those hips would fit perfectly in between my legs.
Holy fuckalicious firefighter!
“Please tell me he’s single, Alexis, because I have a fucking ferocious fire in between my legs that he needs to put out.”
My Carly-cave came to life and my vagina-bats started fluttering around. Holy finger-fuck, he’s gone and rendered me speechless again.
As I slid them over the top of his cock, it sprang free and nearly poked me in the eye. Holy fucking shitballs! Talk about Cockasaurus Rex!
Now make no mistake Dik more than holds his own with my girl (I’m adopting her, get over it!) He’s a firefighter, and oh lordy, does he know how to use his hose! The sex scenes are just amazing between these two – combustible chemistry, a little healthy competition and that joy for life and fun that shines through. Derek’s pickup lines that become a joke between them are truly awful but I bloody smiled or laughed at every one! Oh and more highlighting!
“Baby, I’m a firefighter. I find ’em hot and leave ’em wet.
I hope you like being damp.”
The relationship between these two is fascinating and flawlessly done, it’s as if Tara Sivec had a love child with Kristen Ashley and her name is K. M. Golland.
We just fucking ‘are‘ he said, as he slid his erection inside me and pressed his lips to mine.
As Derek and I made love in the shower, I realised what we were. We were one; two people who made each other whole. Two people in search of each other without even knowing it, and two people brought together by an undeniable attraction that could not be ignored. Attraction is a force that acts between oppositely charged bodies, tending to draw them together. Attraction cannot be fought.
I had no previous knowledge of either Carly or Derek as sadly this was the first K. M. Golland I have read so Attraction was my introduction to her writing and the characters many will be familiar with. But Carly and Derek and this very talented writer totally stole my heart – it’s funny, it’s poignant, it’s friends, family, relationships, life, sex and chemistry all woven together so well that you cannot put it down, laughing so hard you reach the end and think “well fuck. Fuckity, fuck, fuck, fuck, I want more”………………………………………………………………
Oh, and I couldn’t finish without a quick word for my new fangirl crush K. M. Golland!!
