Jun 7, 2017 | Cover Reveal, New Release, Sale |
Ohhhhh lovelies…
I know it’s been forever and a day since I had a new release, or even anything I could share snippets of on my blog, but part of that was because I wrote a dark, twisted little novella called ‘Monster’ that is appearing in the ‘Hero Undercover’ box set from Blushing Books – available for pre-order RIGHT NOW! It has 24 other hot stories, from a ton of amazing authors, and I think there will be something for everyone. This set runs the whole gamut of romance and erotica, from sci-fi to historical to contemporary, sweet heroes rescuing damsels, to dark anti-heroes doing the “right” thing in their own way.
Guess which kind I wrote? Ha!
My novella, ‘Monster’, is dark and twisted… and written in first person POV! It’s the first time I’ve ever done it, but it was how Andre started talking in my head, and I honestly think it was the only way this story could have been told. It’s a wild, wicked ride that ends way too soon, but I will be continuing it in 2018!
Before I give you a little treat from ‘Monster’ I want to tell you a little more about the ‘Hero Undercover’ box set that goes live JUNE 27TH from Blushing Books Publications. Here is the box set blurb:

Now, who wants a sneak peek of ‘Monster’?

‘Monster’ by Jennifer Bene
I’m a monster.
There are no pretty words to wrap up the things I’ve done, the things I’ve been witness to, all in the name of the law. But wrong or right gets mixed up the longer you’re undercover, and what used to be a mask feels more like who I really am with each passing day.
Cold, ruthless, vicious. I’m Paulo García’s monster, and I’d swallowed that bitter pill whole, learned to deal with it… until she stormed into the house like some avenging angel.
And that’s what she is, an angel.
Nicole wants to save her brother. She showed up with an envelope full of cash and a smart mouth and found herself in a den of monsters. I wish I could say I was the best of them, I wish I could say I wanted to protect her — but she’s so damn sweet, and my life’s been bitter for too long.
And all I want is a taste before this world destroys her.

Teaser
The boys opened the front door, and Paulo strolled into the sitting room, making his way to the wet bar. One of the most violent drug lords ever to come out of South America, and he looked like he was on vacation with his casual clothes, his falsely friendly demeanor. My grip on the tequila bottle tensed as I stared at the man, but I made sure my expression was blank. It didn’t matter how much I hated him, I was his until the job was done.
“Not curious about the girl, Andre?” Paulo asked, tilting up his fresh drink to take a sip.
“Why should I be curious when I can get the play by play just from listening?”
“Well, José seems to think she’s a security risk.”
“If you need her handled, I’ll do it, jefe. Otherwise, I see plenty of ass walking around Miami.” I stayed still. Discussing shit like this was practically second nature now.
Paulo chuckled, leaning back with his elbows on the bar. “That’s what I like about you, Andre. Cold as ice.” He waved his drink at the men crowding the front door where a buzz of conversation had picked up. “The others are so hot tempered, they don’t think. You think.”
“Emotion clouds judgment.”
“You’re right. My father used to say… mata a tu corazón, o te matará. Do you know this phrase?”
I hadn’t heard it before, but I knew what it meant, and it fit Paulo perfectly. “Kill your heart, or it will kill you.”
A shark’s grin spread across Paulo’s features. “Exactly. Emotion makes you weak, and weakness is death.”
“Your father was a smart man,” I answered, voice on automatic, but the words were almost overridden by the feminine shout that came from the front door.
“Are you in there Paulo García? HUH?”
The man’s eyebrows lifted the tiniest fraction, his chilling smile not shifting. “Let her in, José.”
“Keep your fucking hands off me.” The blonde that stumbled into the room from the foyer was clad in shorts and a form fitting blue shirt that had some phrase across it in pale, swirling text. Male laughter followed her, and I forced myself to be still, not even breathing so I wouldn’t move.
She was definitely American, and fucking beautiful, and as I turned my eyes back to Paulo I knew the man smelled blood in the water. A wicked hunger waking up in those coal black eyes — the same hunger that I hated myself for feeling. “Hola, señorita. What can I do for you?”
“Do for me?” Her voice was practically boiling with rage, tanned cheeks flushing with it as she held out a thick envelope. “How about leaving my little brother the fuck alone? I’ve got your money, and I want you to take it and then never fucking speak to him again — any of you! That is what you can do for me, asshole.”
Marco and Diego started laughing behind her, amused by her little outburst as they looked over her curves, her strong legs, all the way down to the multi-colored running shoes on her feet. Even Paulo seemed vaguely amused as he spread his arms wide. “I have no idea who your brother is, belleza, but if he owes me money that was his choice.”
“Fuck you! I know you hurt Chris, threatened him, but this is it. Take your money, and get out of his life!” She shook the envelope again, shouting, and my cock twitched at the same moment my stomach dropped.
Brave and stupid. Paulo was going to eat her alive.

See what others are saying about ‘Taken by the Enemy’…
“I was drawn into this dark erotic story with a corrupt government system, evil men controlling people, a system that exiled people from the city without a fair trial, leaving them to die. People inside the city were told those that were exiled were no more than wild animals. Emmie is being forced into a marriage to a sadistic man and flees the city to the forest, but dangers lurk with wild animals. Saved from a wild boar and captured by exiled warriors is like jumping from the frying pan into the fire. The plot kept me captivated and the pages turning with the resourcefulness of those in the village that had been rescued after being exiled. There are rules and order in the camp, and everyone is expected to pull their weight. Emmie is in for a rude awakening as she is belligerent, mouthy and has to learn a new way of life. From the village to the city, this story will take the reader on a roller coaster ride that is intense and raw, … but it offers a dark story that also has loyalty, determinations, survival and love stories too.” – ★★★★★ review
“I am a constant read[er] and rarely do I ever have a problem with putting a book down and walking away. With this book I just couldn’t walk away. I wanted to know what was going to happen next and if things were going to end up okay. I became extremely invested in the characters within minutes of starting to read. Either way, no spoilers, and no dislike [for] a book that [can] have me reading through the night when I have to be to work a 7am.” – ★★★★★ review
“This book was awesome from start to finish. The heroine was strong willed and she wasn’t a whiny idiot like most of these chicks you read about. Great story, enjoyable characters and of course hot spicy sex scenes!” – ★★★★★ review

‘Black Light: Valentine Roulette’ hit #1 in Suspense and #1 in BDSM, and went sub-1000 on Amazon in the first 24 hours it was live, and was an international bestseller in 48 hours. Curious as to why? It’s packed full of eight novellas from eight USA Today and international bestselling authors – and every single story takes place on the same night, at the same BDSM club (Black Light), ALL for the same event. It was a huge undertaking for us as authors, but we rose to the challenge and Valentine Roulette delivers! The event requires the Doms to spin for a sub, and the sub to spin for which activity they will pursue, and it gets pretty kinky.
It’s available NOW and only $2.99 for a limited time! Get your copy now!
In ‘Wet’, my novella, Daddy Dom, Alexander Reed, spins the humiliation loving Sienna Davis – and he’s not concerned at all because he’s looking forward to figuring out what makes her tick. Spinning ‘water based breath play’ as their first kink for the evening puts them at a giant water tank, and gives Alexander just what he needs to make Sienna talk and answer all of this questions.
Only after a lot of time in the dunk tank, and a lot of shouting, both of them are coming undone and Alexander isn’t going to rest until Sienna finally lets go completely…
***
Alexander was on her as soon as the chair settled into place, fist tightly wrapped in her soaked ponytail to force her head back hard against the seat. “Who do you belong to tonight, little one?”
Glaring at him, she gulped air, trying to come up with a response that would display just how angry she was with him for making her talk, how frustrated she was with him for edging her like this. She wanted their gathered audience to understand that this wasn’t her.
“Answer me. Now.” His voice had a darker edge, a strength to it that called to the submissive buried underneath all her raw emotion – the things that should have been calm and quiet when she played. One hand landed on her thigh, squeezing hard enough to leave bruises, while the hand in her hair shook her slightly before tightening. “Who do you belong to tonight?”
“You!” Sienna answered, and she hated the surge of frustrated tears in her eyes, burning as they tried to fall.
“That’s right,” he growled. “And are you supposed to be an obedient little girl?”
“Yes, sir,” she forced the words between her teeth, straining to lean closer to him even though it pulled her hair.
“Then say it, say ‘I want to come, Daddy’. Do it.”
“No,” she answered, and she watched his blue eyes go wide in surprise, before they narrowed and he released her, returning a second later with the vibrator. The first brush of it against her clit was cataclysmic, and the scream she released was pure fury, but he grabbed her hip and held her firmly to the chair so that she had no choice but to take it. Flickers of sparks wound their way up her spine, tightening every muscle in her body as he dragged her to the edge. Hanging her over it with only his hand to decide whether she felt grace or damnation.
Bastard.
There was nowhere to move, no way to avoid the onslaught of pleasure – and she knew in that moment that he intended to break her. The shift in him was clear. Something new. Threatening. But the damn vibrator made it so fucking hard to think, to focus.

Will Sienna finally snap? You’ll have to read this HOT story in the Black Light: Valentine Roulette boxed set to find out! Is it intense? Yes. Fun as hell? Yes. That basically describes this ENTIRE delicious boxset, and I shared teasers from the other stories all last week to celebrate our release weekend!
