Hansel by Ella James (Hansel #1)



Hansel by Ella James 
(Hansel #1) 
Publication date: October 22nd 2014 
Genres: Adult, Erotica, Romance


Synopsis:
My name is Gretel. I’m the dish-washer. The kitchen girl. I’m not one of Mother’s pets. I’m just a storybook girl no one sees. Until that night. When I find him again, and all my dreams come to life.
He’s mine—the one called Hansel. I’ve come here to claim him.
I’m Hansel, a crazy woman’s toy. It’s taken years, but I’ve finally forgotten everything outside my life here in The House. I live for sex and nothing more. Until I see her. Gretel.
I remember her. I need her. She is mine.

AUTHOR’S NOTE: This story is not panty-melting. Your panties won’t have time to melt, because they will fuc*ing evaporate. Poof! But let me level with you: It is crazy. It is dark. You have to trust me. You will find both Gretel and Hansel to be completely fuc- lovable. You have my word.
P.S. It’s not fantasy. It’s contemporary erotica.
P.S.S. No one in this fairy tale is related.

TEASER:
I should have called this shit off a long damn time ago.

When I arrived in Vegas seven years ago, I didn’t know any better than what I was. Than what I did. I needed things I haven’t needed in a fucking long time now. Dominating women…it was the air in my lungs.

Now it’s goddamned boring.

I’ve cut back—way back; maybe two or three times a year, like tonight, when we have investors in the house, and my submissives are Luna Trois and French Kitten, a famous porn star and a celebutant bitch who, combined with me, draw a pretty decent crowd.

But this shit is all for show. We don’t do real-time domination at The Forest. Not when my submissives are so notable, and there’s a crowd ten bodies thick behind the Plexiglas wall. Luna and Frenchy had to sign off on the cat I’m palming. On the thick plugs in their puckered holes. On the tight cuffs around their wrists, and the spreaders I’ll use when both their asses are good and welted.

They were happy to agree to the nipple clamps I like to use: the metal ones that can do real damage if left on too long—though, of course, they won’t be.

Neither woman objected to the dual blow job they’ll give me after I spread them wide and use my fist on them, where Luna will deep-throat me and Frenchy will tea-bag my balls. Luna is thrilled that, after she stuffs her throat full of my cock, she’ll spread her legs for Luna’s tongue while Luna lets me fuck her from behind. I’ve got a nine-inch cock, and she told me before the show, she’s shallow, but Luna likes the pain. They all do.

I can’t lie: I like to give it.

I made my name dominating sick showgirls.

A lot of it is my body and my face, my pretty cock and the absurd length of time that I can wield it. But it’s the showmanship, too.

The rough, whispered words the mics can always pick up on.

The heavy-handed spanking—also okay’d by them, although it looks and sounds spontaneous.

The way I give it to them, invading mouth, pussy, and ass, often in quick succession.

People like to think of me as some sort of grand fucking conquestor.

Unbreakable.

Unyielding.

In the six months after I left Colorado and hitchhiked my way to Vegas, where my miserable life began, I made such a name for myself as “Edgar,” my shows at Vixxx would sometimes draw a bigger crowd than the Saturday night fights at the Mirage.

With a pedigree like mine, it wasn’t difficult to sweet-talk investors into fronting a club. I’m good with money—good at betting, I guess—so they were happy to invest again and again, each time lowering my interest rates and increasing the amount of dollars. Now that The Forest is what it is, even the most prudish among them are pleased to have their names up on the donors’ wall inside my primary location on The Strip.

In the last five years, I’ve opened four locations. Financed one sixth of a casino. Built five apartment buildings, invested in one planned gated community, and bought out three luxury car lots.

I’m interviewed regularly by the Nevada Business Times, consulted occasionally by Hollywood, still sporadically beset by huge financial offers from porn studios, discreetly phoned by Wall Street deviants interested in “the lifestyle.”

They all know me as Edgar.

Not my birth name, Lucas Lenore, nor any other name I’ve had.

I’ve made a new life. Become almost famous for my stamina and temper, for my keen eye for submissives and my talent with a crop.

I stay hard all the way through every show, no matter how long. It’s not Viagra. Just my lust.

And no one ever guesses my secret.

At what my private submissives’ gag orders keep hidden.

That after every show, there must be blood.

Mine.

Because I’m not a sadist—not just.

I’m still Hansel. And Hansel is a masochist

Chasing the Stars Release Day blitz by author J.D. Rivera








Mackenzie Blanchard’s life
wasn’t easy; never had been, never would be. She thought things were looking up
when she started yet another new school her senior year. She made friends and
was enjoying life the best she could.



One friendship turned into something more, and just when she felt safe, things
were ripped apart.



Hayes Morgan had never cared about anyone but himself. He was living the life
he wanted, just having fun. He never dreamed that he would fall for the new
girl in school.




What started out as a sweet friendship turned into something he
never thought possible, until she vanished...



Their paths collide a year after they last saw each other, but they are both
harboring secrets. Will they be able to trust and love each other again, or
will the secrets rip them apart forever?

I turned around to
come face to face with green piercing eyes. My breath caught and I felt like I
was going to pass out. No way was I standing in front of Hayes Morgan. I
couldn’t move, I couldn’t breathe, and I couldn’t speak. I couldn’t do anything
but look into his beautiful eyes.



“Mac?” he finally managed, his voice cracking.



“Yeah,” I whispered.



He reached his hand out like he was going to touch me then dropped it. “I can’t
believe it’s you. I wasn’t sure if I’d ever see you again.”



I pulled my eyes away from him to notice the beautiful girl standing beside him
with her arm wrapped around his forearm. “It’s really me. It was nice seeing
you, but I have to go.

Questions for JD Rivera

Your next
book, Chasing the Stars, comes out on Oct. 13th. Tell us a little about it.

Chasing the Stars is about a girl (Mackenzie) that moves
around a lot starting her senior year at a new high school and a guy (Hayes)
that pretty much has everything and not a care in the world. They meet and a
friendship forms and then everything is ripped apart for them. It's a mix of
YA/NA but I would classify it as more New Adult.

When did
know you wanted to be a writer?

I've always made up stories but it wasn't until I was an
adult that I really wanted to write the stories down and let the world see
them.

Are there
any genres that you want to write, but haven’t yet?

I don't think so but that could change tomorrow. I will never
say never.

Balancing
family time is tricky as it is. How do you throw writing into that mix?

I balance my time by giving up sleep and drinking a lot of
coffee. I usually give myself a certain amount of time each day to write or if
I'm really lucky I'll give myself a word count to achieve.

What is
the ideal writing environment for you?

My ideal writing environment is my new recliner with music
turned up. I don't really have a preference on music but I like to listen to
something.

Do you outline
your stories or do they just come to you?

I tried to outline once and it turned into a disaster. I felt
like I was forcing the story. I'd rather just let it come to me.

What is
the typical turn-around time for a book for you?

It varies depending on what's going on in my personal life
but I would say 4-6 months.

What is
one question you wish people asked you?

Oh gosh, I have no idea. Maybe... Can I get you another Diet
Mountain Dew? Haha!!!

What book
are you dying to read?

I have way too many to list.

Some books
are harder than others to write. Were any of yours particularly hard, or did
they all flow?

Most have came pretty easily to me but I would say Defensive
was the hardest. Only because I didn't really plan on writing it.

Pen and
paper or keyboard and screen? What way do you wish you could do all your
writing?

Keyboard!!! My handwriting is so bad I wouldn't know what I
had written.

What other
projects can we expect to see from you in the future?

I'm currently writing a novel and then I plan
on writing a novella. You may see some characters from Chasing the Stars show
up again. ;-)



J.D. Rivera lives in Oklahoma with her husband and two boys. Her
life consists of school projects, homework, cartoon shows, and little league
sports. She loves Diet Mountain Dew, the OKC Thunder, costume jewelry, the
beach, and reading.
