Terri L. Austin | Beauty and the Brit

pinterestgoodreadstwitterfacebook
Hello, Fresh Fiction Readers! Itโ€™s a pleasure to be here. I thought Iโ€™d tell you a little about my erotic romance, HIS EVERY NEED. Itโ€™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. Trevorโ€™s not a beast, not exactly, but heโ€™s selfish and isolated. Heโ€™s emotionally cut off and when Allie Campbell blows into his life, he isnโ€™t sure what to make of her. But he doesnโ€™t want to let her go.

Allie is no damsel in distress. Sheโ€™s a strong, capable woman whose family is in
chaos after the death of her mother. Itโ€™s Allieโ€™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 wasnโ€™t seriously offering Allie the position. He was only joking.
Americans donโ€™t always understand his British sense of humor. But he wonโ€™t back
down, and neither will she.

Though their bargain throws them together, Allie and Trevor are meant for one
another. But itโ€™s not that easy, is it? Family drama, Trevorโ€™s issues with
trustโ€”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, itโ€™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.
