I am about to tease him, when we are interrupted by a young thirty
something guy who, looks like a Ken doll.
“Frank, nice to see you again,” he drawls with a southern accent.
Shaking my dad’s hand, my dad smiles and makes polite conversation all the
while this guy is eyeballing me from head to toe,
“And you must be?” he asks extending his hand my way. Taking his
hand it feels smooth, too smooth like he uses lotion all the time.
“Bailey and you are?” I ask dropping his too perfect hand.
He smiles at me with nothing but pure lust in his eyes. “Andres,”
he replies, wetting his lips with his tongue still eye-fucking me. “Would you
like a drink, Bailey?” My name drips off his lips like honey and I won’t lie,
it gets my stomach coiling but I raise my already full glass and smile.
My dad excuses himself again and I want to reach out and slap him
for leaving me with Ken but here I am, alone with a real life doll. His sandy
blond hair parted to the side, his skin is tanned like he has spent the last
few weeks on an exotic beach and his smile a little too wide for his face, but
his perfectly straight white teeth gleam at me. He stands staring at my chest
without any hint of embarrassment but an amused lust filled expression playing
across his features,
“I should probably get
going,” I announce, feeling altogether uncomfortable and slightly turned on in
his presence.
“Can I give you a ride?”
My breath hitches in my throat as he smirks at his own double
meaning. “No thank you. I drove.”
Taking my elbow he leads me behind a big fake bush just at the end
of the bar. Leaning down, I can smell his cologne, a musky heady scent.
“Why don’t you and I go somewhere more private?” His voice laced
with desire rolls over me like a warm summer breeze heating my very core. My
eyes flutter as my lips part slightly. I feel drunk, intoxicated on lust or the
promise of it. Ken doll’s hand leaves my elbow and rests on the small of my
back with his fingers spreading down to the top of my ass as he steps closer to
me.
I look into his hazel eyes and feel trapped he is too close and
his scent is making me dizzy, or maybe that is the blood pounding in my ears as
my heart jackhammers in my chest. Ken leans closer again so his nose skims my
neck.
“Darling,” he says and I jump back like I have been shocked.
Breathing hard I glare at him. “Excuse me, I have to go.” Turning
on my heel I walk over to my dad. “Dad, I’m leaving. Walk me out?” I hold onto
my dad like he is my lifeline and avoid Ken as he tries to catch up with us. I
hand the valet my ticket and pray that he hurries.
“Okay sweetheart, I will see you in a week. I promise.” My dad
hugs me and I don’t want to let go of him for fear of being alone if Ken comes
out here. I hear my car before I see it and release my dad kissing his cheek.
“Night dad, love you.” Opening my purse, I give the valet ten
dollars and jump inside driving out of the hotel to the small road before I
readjust my seat.
My heart is pounding; I feel like I just stole a million dollars
and got away with it. Ken was way too smooth and his perfect smooth hands, huh;
I huff at myself but then imagine what it would feel like to have smooth hands
roam my body. Would they make me feel the way Knox’s calloused fingers would?

SUMMER
Coming July/August 2014
This is not a HEA.
This book is a companion Novella to the Blackrock series.
Scarred Hearts & Taking Chances.
It deals with the last 9 months of Summer Anderson's life told from her POV.
Love
Do we ever know what it truly is? Is it in the hugs from a parent?
In the laughter shared with a best friend? Or is it the words that slip from the lips of the boy you want to love you back?
I don’t know, maybe it’s a combination of all three, or maybe just maybe - it’s in the eyes of the person staring back at you through the mirror. The person whom you need to love, in order love another.
For me staring into the mirror only brings pain, regret, and shame. What I’ve done, the one thing I thought would give me love, brought nothing but shame. This person staring back at me…I don’t know who she is, I don’t know who I am anymore.
Love. Do we ever know what it is?
Scarred Hearts Book 1
5 STARS!!
This is the first Elizabeth Kelly book i have read and let tell you I am
hooked. It is well written and filled with passion, drama and most of
all love.
Bailey has lost her best friend and in trying to recover
decides to leave and live with her father in Blackrock. While there she
decides she will begin college and meets her TDH(Tall Dark Handsome)
only to realize that TDH is a twin! Knox and Max become part of her life
along with a new friend Paige. She begins a relationship with Knox that
is showing her how to love and be happy again, but something is always
in their way. Struggling with pasts and demons they are try to run from
becomes a struggle to stay together. But struggle they do ass the love
that they share is strong.Paige and Max have begun their relationship as well, and although they don't have as many obstacles as Knox and Bailey they do have challenges to overcome.
I loved this book because the situations felt real and I could relate to them. Both young and in love dealing with issues that are difficult for any adult they face them together and hold dear to each other. I loved it!!! Elizabeth Kelly is now one of my Favorite authors and I can't wait to read the next book in this series!!
Taking Chances Book 2
5 STARS!!!
This books starts off exactly where Scarred Hearts left us. Yes it leaves us emotionally wrung out! But hey that was what made it so fracking awesome! We continue along with Bailey and Knox trying to overcome the obstacle put in their way. Can they survive more heart ache? I couldn't put it down!!!! This series has seriously hooked me. Knox is the TDH of our dreams! Perfect in a perfectly flawed and real way he fights to keep the woman he loves b his side.
Make sure that you have a box of tissue with you when you read this one because the tears will flow. A hit for Elizabeth Kelly!

Why write books?
Well it has always been a dream of mine to write a book, I have written many stories but never finished them or hid them away. Last November with some encouragement from my little sister I wrote my first novel Scarred Hearts. I enjoyed writing that book so much it took me three weeks to finish it! :)
