Roughing

by Paige Matthews

July 10th - July 20th

Ten years

It’s been ten years since he ripped my heart out and left me broken and destroyed.

Ten years of rebuilding, of moving on.

But do you ever really move on from your first love?

Now faced with the past, how do we deal with the future?



Colin



Ten years.

She left me a hollow man. No one has captured my heart since.

Ten years spent focusing on my career and having fun.

That is until she reappears in my life.

Can I convince her to give us a second chance?

What do you say about yourself? Aren’t we supposed to write these in third person? Oh well, here I go! I have been writing and reading since I was able to pick up a pen and read a book. I can’t even begin to list the amounts of book that I’ve devoured over the course of my life; from the Babysitter’s Club to R.L.Stein to the classics and the novels of my degrees. I have spent countless hours between the covers of classics during my undergraduate and graduate degrees from Western Connecticut State University, resulting in a BA English: Comparative Literature and a MA English: Professional Writing.

Recently, I have been focusing both my writings and my readings in erotica, BDSM and contemporary romance. And no, Fifty Shades of Grey did not get me on the BDSM bandwagon. If anything it opened the idea up more to me, but alas I have my own opinions on the trilogy.

I am trying to focus my writings on the emotional aspects of the erotic world, the emotional bondage of BDSM. I am interested in what makes people want to be dominant or submissive, the connection, etc. But I do like to read about a good flogging and bondage story too, the smuttier the better. :)

I live in New England with a wonderful family that keeps me busy when I am not at my day job or writing. I hope you enjoy your stay.

ALPHA BOOK CLUB REVIEW

“He wrapped his arms around me and pulled me closer for a kiss.  A different feel to this one than he had been giving me.  This wasn’t filled with need or desire; this kiss was tender, sweet and soft.”

Five stars.  This book had everything you could ask for in one book.  Hot alpha male, Hot BDSM scenes, a strong female character and well hot sex.  This story was a lot of fun to read and I was instantly sucked into the pages.

Briana has sworn off men and any idea of a love life after her ex left her abruptly and suddenly about 10 years ago.  She’s now thrown herself into work for New York’s hockey team, and she loves her job, did I mention that her ex Colin is one of the star players?  And although she hasn’t had a run in with him yet, she knows it’s bound to happen.  Colin, the star hockey player and super Dom in the BDSM world is missing Briana and when he sees her one day, he knows he has to do everything in his power to win her back.  The minute Briana sees Colin again after so many years, she knows that she can’t deny him or the way she feels when he’s near her.  She tries to fight it but it doesn’t work.  They try to make their relationship work, but as usual there’s lots of interferences.  Can their relationship make it out alive??  Although this is the third book in the series, it can be read as a stand alone.
