Terri L. Austin | Beauty and the Brit

facebooktwittergoodreadspinterest
Hello, Fresh Fiction Readers! It’s a pleasure to be here. I thought I’d tell you a little about my erotic romance, HIS EVERY NEED. It’s the first book in the Beauty and the Brit series. As a girl, I loved fairy tales, especially Beauty and the Beast. There was something so redeeming about that story and the transformative power of love. How the beast changed from a demanding brute into a caring hero. For me, HIS EVERY NEED is a sexy twist on that familiar tale. Trevor’s not a beast, not exactly, but he’s selfish and isolated. He’s emotionally cut off and when Allie Campbell blows into his life, he isn’t sure what to make of her. But he doesn’t want to let her go.

Allie is no damsel in distress. She’s a strong, capable woman whose family is in
chaos after the death of her mother. It’s Allie’s job to take care of them. She
made a promise, after all. And if it means becoming a mistress to Trevor Blake,
so be it.

Trevor wasn’t seriously offering Allie the position. He was only joking.
Americans don’t always understand his British sense of humor. But he won’t back
down, and neither will she.

Though their bargain throws them together, Allie and Trevor are meant for one
another. But it’s not that easy, is it? Family drama, Trevor’s issues with
trustβ€”they all come into play. How can Trevor learn to love when his own family
bonds are so broken? The road to happily ever after is a bumpy one, but when it
comes, it’s so satisfying.

Re: Terri L. Austin | Beauty and the Brit

Your book sounds like a lot of typical men, when you get
right down to it, or at least a lot of the men that I had
come across. Perhaps I had looked in the wrong places, but
they seemed to be more isolated, but not necessarily
selfish. Anyway, I am looking forward to reading your take
on Beauty and the Brit, and to see how the story unfolds.
The cover is very tastefully done, and I congratulate you on
your book!!

Thanks so much, Peggy! I love the cover, too. I hope you enjoy the book. :)

This looks like a great story, Beauty and the Beast was one of my favorite fairy tales when I was younger. I look forward to Trevor's British sense of humor.

I love that understated, dry wit the British have, Mary. Happy reading and thanks for taking the time to comment.
