The Token 9: Chet Sinclair (Token Series #9)
Author: Marata Eros
Genre: New Adult Romance
Release Date: February 27, 2015

Description:

An Addiction.

Kiki is desperate to stop the twisted relationship she shares with Chet Sinclair, but finds that she can’t. He is too vital, too potent… like a magnet, she cleaves to him. Desperate to break the pattern, she goes into hiding to escape her feelings and a ghost from her past comes back to haunt her.

The Consumption.

Needy and unnerved, Kiki turns to the one person that offered her solace from the past. Can Damon Axton erase what’s begun? Will he be the one to break the cycle of sexual intensity 
and obsession that Chet uses to imprison her, body and soul?

A Recompense of Love.

When Sinclair discovers where Kiki is hiding, their passion explodes once again. Can either admit their true feelings for each other? Or will sensual enslavement destroy their dark love before it has begun?

“No.” I stare down at Ax from where's he perched on the beat-up futon—my bed. “We're not a team until we get some shit straight.”

Ax's jet black eyebrow hops to his hairline. “Baby—”

“No,” I say, waving a palm in his face like a railroad arm coming down over a track. “Don't you baby me.” My eyes shoot sparks, and he leans back with a grunt.

“You clobbered Chet.” I cross my arms.

“Yeah-huh.” He gives his short hair a rough scrub. “And Chump was deserving, Kik.”

I stomp my high heel. “Maybe!” I stab the air with my finger. “But you nailed him from behind, and now he's, I don't know, dead or broken somewhere.”

Ax shakes his head. “I've looked into Chet-buddy, and his rich ass can take care of its own self.” He wags a finger and leans back again.

I pace as if the energy is pouring off me. I whirl and point at him.

His eyes narrow on my hot pink nail tip.

“You have a closet full of chick’s clothing,” I say.

Ax shrugs, giving my once-pristine outfit an eye rake. “I see you made use of it.”

“Why, Ax?”

His expression is unreadable, not the open face I remember so well. “The Crawl isn't my only business, Kik. I have some others.”

“What do you mean?” I search his face, and a flicker skates across his dark gaze. “Don't bullshit me, Ax. It won't work. I'm a fucking hard-charging broad. You know this.”

He grins, white teeth slashing across his face. “Oh, I know. Damn, girl, do I know.” He chuckles. “This isn't where I normally hang. In fact, this is just a little lily pad I hop on to sleep over once in a while. Sometimes employees from my other businesses need somewhere to crash, and I give them a boost.”

“How much of a boost?” I'm aware my voice has just dipped into suspicion.

“Kik…” His eyes meet mine, and they're not remotely soft, but hard as flint. “Why do I feel you're coming down hard on me when I've been doing nothing but helping you? Let me count the ways of my awesome.” He winks, ticking off his great points on his fingers. “I took you in when Chump was admiring his own dick.” I roll my eyes, and he continues. “I haven't put the moves on your hotness.”

Book Blitz + Giveaway: The Token 8: Kiki by Marata Eros




The Token 8: Kiki (Token #8)
Author: Marata Eros
Genre: New Adult Contemporary Romance
Release Date: November 28, 2014

Description:

One Promise.

Kandace “Kiki” King lives a dream life. Rising above the ashes of a neglected childhood, she’s graduated from a prestigious Seattle university to obtain her pre-law degree. Her best friend, Faren, has overcome tragedy and found her happily ever after.

Kiki’s not looking for love.

The Lie.

Love has other plans. After Thorn’s revelation about the ties of their past, Kiki feels as though she’s been set adrift. When Mick McKenna’s billionaire friend shows interest, she dismisses him. Her exotic dancing paid for her lifestyle. What does Chet Sinclair know about sacrifice and hard work?

A Truth.

Until they discover a similar appetite. For the first time in her life, Kiki feels helpless against the pull of a sexuality she doesn’t understand, couldn’t anticipate, yet hungers for. Will she allow herself to succumb to what Chet Sinclair offers?

Or is the oath she made to herself in danger of being broken?

“I like this Chet.” My finger touches the tip of his nose.

His expression freezes.

“What Chet?” he asks neutrally.

“This one,” I say softly, touching his arm lightly as he stands.

He doesn't respond, quickly drying himself.

I blush at his flaccid penis. That his tube of love did those things to me... seems inconceivable, but Chet has the moves. Boy, does he.

He strides around my small condo, picking up trousers, socks, underwear, and the cufflinks he'd left behind.

“Ah,” he says when he plucks them off the entrance table. “I wondered where they'd gone off to.” He lifts them with his fingers then loosely closes his fist around them.

“You put them there when we were christening the wall,” I say, my voice as droll as they come.

My cell dings between us on the kitchen table. I don't move to answer, but Chet does.

I go to intercept, but I’m too late.

Chet scoops it up, frowning at whatever he sees on the screen.

Shit.

But why should I feel bad? I mean, he's got Chloe for shit's sake. And Ax and I—we're nothing.

Though it could be something.

I bite my lip, and Chet's eyes zero in on my mauling of the soft flesh. I let it plop out.

“Who is Ax?”

I lift a naked shoulder, my boob jiggling a little from the motion. Chet's eyes flick to my breast then back to my eyes.

“A guy.”

His eyebrow cocks. “Clearly.”

The silence has words.

“He's a guy I was friends with in the projects,” I say.

Chet pulls a face. “Projects?”

Right, rich boy doesn't know the term. “Yʼknow, slums.” I sound a little more harsh than I mean to. Try as I might, I can't wash the dirt off the word.

“I see.” Chet's gaze doesn't hold the condemnation I think it will. It's neutral.

I try not to be defensive about my past. I can't help my birthing circumstance, my old hood, my stripping to pay for school at Udub—none of it. It's my past. But knowing all that shit doesn't make me feel any less self-conscious.

I inhale deeply, poised to speak, but Chet holds up a hand. “I'm not interested in an explanation of your background.”

I see red, literally. He gets a load of my pissed off expression, no doubt.

Chet rakes his longish hair back from his forehead. “What I mean is that I do want to know you, were you come from. However, I don't want you to feel you're lesser for it.”

I don't cry, but my throat feels as if a fist is crammed inside it. Something tells me I've misunderstood Chet....

A Terrible Love
Author: Marata Eros
Genre: New Adult Contemporary Romance
Release Date: February 11, 2013
Publisher: Self Published
Tour Organized by AToMR Tours

Buy Links: Amazon / Barnes and Noble 

Description:

Jessica Mackey is living a meticulously fabricated lie of necessity. She's left the secret tragedy of her past behind along with who she was and is forging ahead with a clean slate. Jess soon discovers that passion can't be left behind; her own and that of the one man that sees who she really is. Whose presence caresses her soul in a way that may breach the peaceful life Jess has made for herself. Devin Castile sees a young woman that is the missing puzzle piece to his existence and who is also the victim to a heinous crime. Devin convinces himself that he can remain emotionally distant even while indulging his physical desire for her. When the lies that Jess has made crumble before their attraction and the truth is revealed, one of them might pay with their life... or their very being. 


Interview with Marata Eros 


Q: What was the most difficult part for you when writing A TERRIBLE LOVE?


ME: ATL was my first non-fantasy work so I lacked my normal confidence. It was very challenging to stay within “normal” boundaries. For example, I couldn't just maim someone and bring them back perfectly.... they had no recuperative powers. Lol.


Q: What was the easiest part?


ME: ATL was a fresh work for me and I loved writing it. Once I got over my intimidation of writing in a different genre, I found it to be a pleasure.


Q: What is your favorite scene or was your favorite to write? Don’t forget to tell us why.


ME: My favorite scene is the first sexual encounter between Cas and Jewell. Jewell is broken from denying her identity for so long and Cas honors her by telling Jewell not what she wants to hear, but what the truth is as he sees it. Jewell recognizes his sincerity and it begins to heal her. I love fractured people finding a way to become whole. Writing about perfection makes me want to weep with boredom. Writing about people transcending their despair to find joy is the reward in writing a novel such as ATL.


Q: Creating the characters of Cas and Jess; what surprised you the most about each as time went along?


ME: I didn't think Cas was capable of loving Jewell, I was surprised by his depth. In the companion novel, A BRUTAL TENDERNESS, it will come to light why he's such a contradiction of terms. ATL is really about two people that were meant to be together and even the circumstances they find themselves in aren't enough to stop that truth. I kept writing one challenge after another, and with each one it only served to draw the couple closer though every obstacle stood in their way. It made the ending all the sweeter.


Q: The sequel is A BRUTAL TENDERNESS. Can you tell us a little about it?


ME: Actually, ABT is a companion novel told from Cas's perspective. A TERRIBLE LOVE is a stand-alone. I'm hoping readers will love where ABT goes! It is 25% longer with 5-6 bonus chapters of brand new material that occur between where the story ends and where it picks up a year later. I was able to tailor ABT a little for those readers that wanted more story and more “why.” Be prepared! There are three big reveals in ABT in addition to a male who reads like one. You will not be “hearing” ABT as a retelling of ATL with Cas sounding like a female “voice.” Cas is all-male and it might be shocking for some readers to “hear” Cas. Is he tender? Yes. Is he brutal... yes. The two are not mutually exclusive. I have four sons so I know how to make a character sound male, it's a definite advantage.


Q: Is there anything in A TERRIBLE LOVE you hope readers take away after reading, or something you want to point out you don’t want readers to miss?


ME: Hope. ATL is a novel about overcoming tragedy for love. I want my readers to feel that no matter how dire circumstances become, you can fight another day. No one else defines you but you.


Thank you for stopping by and answering some interesting questions for us Marata!
