Excerpt

I rarely saw Richard on Friday nights as he socialised with his own colleagues, and I was ashamed about how happy that made me. We only really saw each other on weekends when we were attending a social function together. Any shameful feelings, however, were going to be forgotten when I planned to leave my colleagues at the bar sometime before midnight under the guise of heading home.

Instead, I’d get in a cab with adrenaline surging and go underground for what I hoped would be a blissful few hours. During those hours I wasn’t going to be twenty-five-year-old Juliette Salinger, daughter of social elite Isabel Fontaine and legal royalty John Salinger. I wasn’t going to be anyone’s puppet, hanging from strings I couldn’t seem to untie. I was just going to be Jules, and I thirsted for the blood spilling in front of me. Not like a vampire or anything paranormal. I’d studied plenty of fights on TV, and I simply craved the energy I gleaned from watching the pummelling impacts, the uppercuts, the right hooks and the sublime confrontation of man against man. In my mind, I preempted every move the fighters made and cringed when they deviated. It would invariably end in them knocked out, unconscious or comatose. Illegal fight nights were a whole new level, and I had a feeling I was going to be counting the hours, the minutes and the seconds between each one.

ALPHA BOOK CLUB REVIEW

Title: Collision
Author: K.A. Sterritt
Genre: Contemporary Romance

“He pushed me up against the wall and kissed me hard, tugging at my robe and breaking our connection for only a few seconds before crashing his lips against mine.  I wrapped my arms around his neck and pressed my body into him.”

5 huge, huge stars!!!  I can’t even begin to describe how amazing this book is.  It’s such an emotional and crazy roller coaster ride!!!

Without giving too much away, I will say this book was so, so good!!!  The characters are so well developed and the storyline is exciting.  The sparks that happen between Juliette and Leo are unexplainable!!  Ugh, this book is so great!!!
