I know that, I know it with everything in me, all the way down to the marrow of my bones.But still I nod. And take his hand. And let him lead me out into the night.

He only wants to disappear into the taboo, into a place where he feels something. Anything. But when the aching need to disappear into the darkness is the only thing he has left, Dominic flounders. In a world that is hollow and sexual, without a guiding light or a reason to breathe, Dominic is lost and broken. He knows he’ll never be fixed. So he makes a decision. If he’s going to hell, he might as well make it worth it. ******** UNTIL WE BURN is a novella (book 2.5 in the Beautifully Broken series) intended to introduce Dominic Kinkaide, to enhance the reading experience of BEFORE WE FALL (Book 3).

I was 35 years old before I learned that the one thing I’m phenomenally good at is sex. Don't get me wrong. I do plenty of other things reasonably well. When it comes to foreplay though, I'm like the Steve Jobs of blow jobs…always looking to innovate. I told myself all these things as I sat in the back of a stretch limousine.

A man and my future waited for me somewhere inside that house, beyond the front door painted in festive red. Scarlet. A fitting color for what he wanted. For twelve hours and $100,000 he would own every naked inch of me. Just one night for a small fortune that would change my life forever, if I had the courage to walk through that red door….
