MY REVIEW 5 of 5 stars

Vested In Her

by Brickley Jules

I think I’m in love with the sexy Biker hunk Riker! The main character Haven (which I love the name BTW) really lucked out in landing this manly man! WOW he’s hot! What started out as an only sex, with all personal boundaries kind of fling, quickly grew into something more… Much more. Haven and Riker are pulled to one another in an intense and completely unavoidable way. Yes, their sex life is to die for. But in my opinion, their emotions really make the book that much better!

Haven is on the run, trying to escape her father’s Biker Club. More so than her father and the MC itself, Haven is forced away by her crazy heartless overbearing uncle. This guy is a real dick, and I didn’t blame Haven at all for wanting to get away from his pushy douche bag tactics. This uncle doesn’t care one bit for Haven, he has alternate selfish motives. The fact that Haven’s father allowed such non-sense is beyond me. I’m glad that daddy-o redeemed himself in the end, or I may have disliked him just as much as the uncle.

Haven travels by bus, on a spur of the moment rout, leaving no trail. When she stops to rest at a small trucker town far from the MC boundaries, she is discovered by a woman named Ruby. I love Ruby! She’s sweet, outgoing, funny, lovable, and everything Haven could have ever dreamed of for help in the journey. Ruby runs a small trucker stop and offers Haven a job and free room to stay in wile working for her. Their bond grows into something beautiful (I wont give away any details, but it’s perfect.) Ruby even helps Haven with a new look and name, as to keep hidden from the MC.

Riker, as an MC prospect, is on a mission to find Haven. Having never met her before in person, he doesn’t recognize her alias. He’s in question with her first look, but the second image that her and Ruby have concocted is able to hide her true identity from him. Needless to say, they are drawn to one another. They are comparable in EVERY way, and their bedroom shenanigans are as steamy as can be! I love what their relationship grows into, and the ending is exactly what I was hoping for.

I can’t wait for the next book in this series, you can bet I’ll be among the first to pre-order as soon as it’s available! Kudos Brickley Jules, this book is outstanding!

Brickley Jules – Vested In Her

Release date: April 26, 2015.

Blurb:

Small town biker princess Haven Mercedes Johnson wants to live a normal life, but she’s relentlessly protected by her father and his crazy right-hand man who will do anything to keep her under his thumb. With the help of an ex, Haven escapes the confines of the club, and after one last wild night, she eagerly sets off to start a new life. After being on the run for days, she’s taken under the wing of a kind woman named Ruby, and with her help, Haven disappears.

Riker Davis will do anything to earn a vest and become a member in Chrome Thunder, a prestigious motorcycle club. His chances are bleak until Haven, the club leader’s daughter, runs away. As a prospect, Riker is tasked to finding her, and he agrees, determined to do anything to earn a vest, including finding a woman who doesn’t want to be brought home.

Haven thinks she’s in the clear until Riker walks into the diner where she works, and her old life boomerangs back at her. Now she must choose, go back to her old life and give Riker what he wants, a vest in her father’s club, or give him up and keep the life she’s always dreamed of.

Excerpt:

Riker rolled of Haven panting, “That’s three.”

She agreed through ragged breaths, “It most certainly was.” Haven rested her arms on his shoulders. “I have this naughty little voice in my head that’s telling me to say something that would be a spankable offense, but I think it’s writing checks my body can’t cash. At least not til after I sleep for a little bit.”

“I would be more than glad to spank you in the morning. Tell it to hush then.”

Book trailers on a budget

Book Trailers


First off, I accidentally hit publish on this way before I was ready to share it. If you clicked on it before I’m sorry the link went nowhere.


I’ve recently invested some time into trying my hand at making a book trailer.

Anyone else out there tried this?

I’m on a budget so there will be no cinematic movie quality to my trailers. No movie stars or beautiful cover models. And actual no movies to my trailers either.

I’ll be making slideshows.

It’s like having my Pinterest boards on Youtube. I love my Pinterest boards.

I’m using Powerpoint.

I use Powerpoint to make slides of my books, a digital book bible of sorts. I’m still learning the ends and outs of it but anything I don’t know in this day and age I can just look it up on the Internet (Google it! My kids favorite expression. {We need to explore the reference and non-fiction sections of our local library this summer.})

Here’s my trailer slideshow. I got all the images used off Pixabay.

I would love to know you’re experiences with making trailers.

Goodreads | Vania Rheault’s review of Vested In Her

I read Vested in Her in just a couple days. (Real life unfortunately intruded.) I loved it! It’s about Haven Johnson, the daughter of the leader of a biker club. Her father is too hard on her and she runs away. She experiences life from under his hard rules and discovers what it’s like to be free and fall in love. I can’t say any more since I don’t want there to be spoilers in this review, but this was a wonderful book full of rich characters and an exciting plot. Not to mention the sex scenes are pretty smoking hot. It was very interesting to me too, since I had little to no knowledge about what a motorcycle club.
This is a series and I can’t wait for the next one!

Chapter One

Haven Johnson bounced across the cracked linoleum floor to answer the call of the beeping oven, her tight tank top and short shorts doing little to cover her as she bounded around. Bending, she retrieved the surprise she baked for her childhood friends who were all crowded around a small, wobbly-legged table in her parents’ kitchen.

A man whistled behind her, but she ignored him. Gas was one guy she had no desire to be friends with, but him and Chrome were a package deal. Continue reading

Pre-Order Vested In Her by Brickley Jules (Me)

Vested In HerVested In HerPre-Order Vested In Her

I’m so excited to announce that my second book is available for pre-order on Amazon and will be available on Smashwords on April 26, 2017.

I’m currently working on formatting it for paperback release as well and hope to have that live April 26 as well.

I’m a bit stuck on if I should use a Acknowledgments Page or a Dedication Page. In Her Unexpected Life I just used a dedication page because it would have added a chapter just thinking all of you great folks out there who helped me out. If I ever get Out of the Blue published the Acknowledgment would have to be a novelette prequel. A lot of great people have tried to help me with that one. (If you’re new to my blog; it’s the first book I attempted to write.)

Do you use Dedication Pages, Acknowledgment Pages, both, or neither?

#TeaserTues – Vested in Her – Take 2

Illict #TeaserTues Vested In Her Except for your reading enjoyment.

I have reworked this story since I originally wrote it during Camp Nano July. Let’s say I remember doing three edits on it since then. That’s a lot in two months. It’s off at my editor now she’s scheduled to look at it next month. Wish me luck!

Edits

  1. A read through to write up my index cards on characters and settings. Worked on tense, added missing words, looked for the wrong word being used, looked for plot holes, and worked on flow.
  2. Added more character and setting depth. Worked on tense.
  3. A read through to write up my index cards on story. Worked on anything that popped up.

Chapter One

Haven bounced across the cracked linoleum floor to answer the call of the beeping oven. She retrieved the surprise she had baked for her friends who were all crowded around a small wobbly legged table in her parent’s kitchen.

“Haven, that smells like heaven. You’re going to make some guy a great old lady one day.” Chrome said.

His older brother Gas smiled, his nut-brown eyes flickered menacingly and he laughed. “We all know that won’t be you, Chrome.”

The other guys around the table burst into laughter.

Chrome lowered his bright red mop that he had in common with his brother, the only thing he had in common with his brother, and stuttered to himself. The sea green eyed, Chrome was the more sensitive of the two. He gave riding lessons to townies down at the bike shop. He was the only one willing to. Gas was a mechanic there and ruthlessly prodded him about helping them. Continue reading
