Emperor’s Addiction Excerpt


The one woman he knew he should never EVER touch is the one that can cure the pain that he's endured his whole life.



With promises broken, lines crossed, morals forgotten and a woman with a mysterious past, he's dead set on making her...



EMPEROR’S HEART




CHAPTER 1


The harder he hit, the more it hurt, so he pressed his whole weight into it and knocked it repeatedly until his back was screaming with pain. Yet, it felt good. It felt so good to feel the hot steak run down his spine and grip his muscles until he felt like his whole body was going to collapse. Pausing for a moment to wipe the sweat off his face, he quickly started back up again ignoring the pain as much as he could, but when it got really bad, he would bite his lip and keep going...READ MORE

What I'm Reading: Destiny ... Interupted by Erica N. Martin & Greg Jones



Written from two different perspectives, Destiny.Interrupted shows how one relationship can take on two different skins. Erin Lynch is a recently divorced, accomplished writer who has put her heart on lock down and thrown away the key. Her issues with trust have her impervious to love.that is until she meets Oricho Hamilton, a man that has the world in the palm of his hand. Oricho is a player on a mission. Graced with good looks, a killer personality and the ability to smooth talk a woman out of her panties and her social security number. But when Erin crosses his path, she touches his soul like no woman ever has before. When they find each other it's a match made in heaven. But both of their pasts threaten the connection. When tragedy strikes, their love is tested in ways that they would never imagine. Though destined to be together, will Oricho and Erin's relationship survive under the stresses of the many distractions or will Destiny be Interrupted? Destiny.Interrupted is packed with surprises, twists and underlying lessons. A story of trust, faith and forgiveness that will touch everyone's heart that reads it.

Live Story to Come: Emperor's Addiction



Yes, I know you wanted Stealing Innocence III, but before I could do this justice, you had to be introduced to one more character who is going to be a pivotal force in the Heart and Bellini world.





She's in this book and I needed to get this one out before that one can be released.





The one woman he knew he should never EVER touch is the one that can cure the pain that he’s endured his whole life.

Pursuing Mrs. Regrets live story by (reader & author) Suprina Frazier

FYI, reader and author, Suprina Frazier has started her live story, Pursuing Mrs. Regrets, so while you're waiting on me, check her out, comment a lot and keep her encouraged.

You go gurl!!

Foreword: This book contains some very sensitive subject matter. It is intended for mature audiences only - eighteen (18) and up.

About Story:
Delia Valentine is married to her regrets, which makes it impossible for any man to get next to her. Her biggest regret is killing the father of her children. If only E-Blade hadn’t slept with her cousin Cami. Then maybe he wouldn’t be dead, Cami wouldn’t be in prison, and Delia wouldn’t feel so undeserving of love.

Royal Seeger knows all about Delia’s past. And yet he still loves and wants her. More importantly, he still wants a life with her. Yet a mystery man with three aliases poses a serious threat to Royal and Delia’s union. This same mystery man has Delia at a major crossroad.

Will she stay and embrace a full life with Royal? Or will Delia go with the mystery man and try to recapture what was lost?


Here's the first chapter to start you off:

His Substitute Wife... Links and last comments from Author

Good morning guys


Just in case you didn't get the notice, I'm done and finished with the book.

To download the PDF, please go to: http://www.lulu.com/content/1414554

With Thursday being around the corner, I have compiled the HTML for the book.








Click the Buy NOw button to purchase your copy if you cannot download it from Lulu or do not want the PDF.



If you've had trouble downloading, please email hubbooks@yahoo.com with the receipt and it'll be resolve asap.


Since the book is so large, I have placed the price at only $1.50. I usually make it a dollar in it's first week, but this was like blood sweet and tears and it's word count is equal to almost two books. After Monday, that price will no longer be available and the book will be online for $3.00.


I think I ended it well. I don't think I left any stone unturned and I hope I have given you a very fun ride for the money.


I want to thank all of you for your support to my literary endeavors and please please tell others about me and encourage them to come to the site to purchase my books.


Your support is so appreciated and your word of mouth is so wanted and needed.


I've had three request for the next live story and I've love to hear what you think...



  • Emperor's Heart

  • Stealing Innocence III: Lethal Heart

  • King's Paradise

(post your opinion in the comments and we'll see. I'm not promising anything, but your consideration will be taken into account for the decision.)

His Substitute Wife... My Sister ... is ready for downloading

But before I release it. . .



I do have to give the people who donated a chance to read it first.



What took so long?



Since I switched flashes like three and four times during the story and bumped from a 2000 to a 2007 system the formatting was so durn whacked that I ended up almost retyping sections or reformatting several chapters. Eight chapters had no tabbing at all that carried over from the original and then sometimes in the document you're going to see misspellings in England English rather than American English (because I had to also switch templates because the one from Lulu was corrupted with lines all throughout the middle of the stories or at the ends or at any other place it just felt like putting it.)



I'm hoping it looks okay.



Now for the ones that need HTML, I'll have that ready by Thursday and post a blog that you can purchase straight through this website. I'm sorry for the wait and thank you so much for your patience.



When is the next story and what is it?



I have no idea right now, but I'm leaning heavily toward SI3.



I'm so exhausted mentally. It was like running a race for two months and not stopping and now my brain needs a long break. We'll start the next one probably in June so keep a look out for it and sign up to be notified if you haven't either through the yahoo group or on this blog itself.

Waiting on the story...

good afternoon...

yes, I said good afternoon, because I'm just getting to work.

I got a ticket about three months ago for three driving infractions and do you know i've been at the court since 8 am and just getting out.

Usually I pay for it and let it go, but this time, I thought I should fight it. plus sistah don't have the money.

I sat there for two hours waiting for the judge to even come to the court room and then I sat through case after case until my battery ran out on my laptop.

Well after everything and all the waiting, the officer threw everything out.

Completely and i was back out on the street, very late for work and with no writing done, which I had planned to upload the story by now.

Well, now i'm at work and the uploading might not be done until tomorrow. I still have to do a spell check and go over the last chapter which I typed while I was waiting for the judge and people were staring at me like I had lost my mind or was very upset as I cried.

And I'm sooooo sorry for your wait.

For all of those donations I received while doing the book, if you want to make sure you get your book first, please forward your receipt email to hubbooks@yahoo.com. (It has to be a donation made between Jan 1st, 2008 and now.

You get first dibs.

If you can't find it, just email me and let me know and I'll do a search for you.

I'm going as fast as humanly possible.

Thanks for your patience.

Chapter 48


Yes, this will be my last post for this whole story..



the word count right now is 168K. That's a lot of free. I'll keep it all up until Monday and that's when it'll be available on Lulu for download.

I don't have to teach this weekend, so I'll spend it typing on my jornada typing like a mad monkey and finishing this bad boy out. (And no I won't rush it carmel beauty.)



I've decided after your recommendations so go with typing up three synopsis for the following books:

Mistaken Identity
Sin's Iniquity
Sex Weed
Tanner's Devil

Now I know that I have Sin's Iniquity in the editing stage although my memory is off on who i sent it to.

if you know who you are email me my phone or hubbooks@yahoo.com

umm....

i'm trying to think of wrap up notes but right now I can't think of anything.

I'm kinda sad at not just at the ending of this but because i'll miss them. Don't know if i want to bring anybody back.

Oh and just in case you want to know where Onyx was before she reappeared, I have her time line down as starting on her next big case which her book is based on and she was out of town "preparing" but that'll be all explained in her story.

Tapping chin to remember any questions I needed to answer.

Oh well, my brains a slush pile. There's a migraine coming on and it might be due to the snow storm coming in again.

if i have something else, I'll just throw it in the comment box.

oh yeah, thanks for the words of inspiration, Suprina . That was great coming from another author.

And no CB didn't give me airline times. LmAo!

Now this post is just Parker working it out and stuff and really you guys can't be mad at him. He's in shock. He's not on his toes and you know in the past he's made foolish decisions and made himself look like an idiot before when it came to matters of the hearts. He's a man and he's learning. But he's also distraught and frustrated about Charisse being possibly dead.

Give him a break.

enjoy...

Chapter 47

no notes today. I did read and approve your comments and gawd, I'm really getting depressed because the story is coming to an end.

BTW, I was going to get back on the query to an agent / publisher horse and start sending my work out for major publishing. I thought about it long and hard and want to make a serious investment of time in trying to get a distribution deal.

But I'd love your help in helping me choose two titles you think I should push. I want to know your favorite story. (Add it to the comments.)

You know it's amazing what i get done on the bus on the way back and forth from work. at this rate, I might never drive again as I type on my little Jornada.

People look at me while I'm typing and listening to Musiq and I ignore them because if you make too much eye contact in Detroit you're either looking for a fight or you want conversation. I want neither so I just stay to myself.

I typed this one just this morning on the bus and it was real emotional so I ended up crying while typing. I didn't go back over it to make sure it looked okay. I'm tired and exhausted. I'm really going to miss Charisse and Parker.

I'll update later on. After lunch. ...


okay, as usual try to enjoy...

Author's Note 03/05/08

last night I went to see Semi-Pro.

Omg! that was something sick all together but entertaining.

I think moviegoers are expecting too much and forget that movies are just entertainment. They're starting to take things too serious. And ruining for us who still see this as just entertainment.

Anyhoo, it snowed 7 inches in detroit and it was just ugly. I hope its quiet today, but they just declared a state of emergency.

Kids stayed home from school so I'll be getting calls all day about someone hitting each other.

Lawd, hap mercy

Here's the comments from yesterday and yes I'm typing as we speak.

Paula: yes, she most likely will even if it's just for stalling.

Most likely I won't start another one until May or June.

tanya: simple misunderstanding that can be cleared up if Parker feels with his heart and not thinks with his head.

Julia: i hope you didn't fall off the edge of your seat and I can't help it with the cf's. it's in my nature. Great comments. I enjoyed them immensensely!

cinquetta: awww, (blushing) i'm honored.

Tori: i don't feel bad for Cheyenne. I really do hate her but a lot of times in life I see evil winning all the time and the sometimes the only way good conquers it is in books, movies and sports events. I know this is a pessimistic view of it all, but that's kinda what I'm feeling.

Anonymous: see Julia's comments and I hope he does figure it out in time.

eva: 1)she was delirious 2) I'm different you know that.3)I agree about that with every new story my imagination gets more wicked and twisted. I live a very boring life and i gotta find adventure some how. And yes I did run that kids over in Stone's Revenge (laughing wickedly) he hee heee heeeee haa 4) She's breaking the cycle in her own way. She's trying to be a better mother. 5) still trying.

CB: that was funny how you casually called Parker that. It was like you were standing there talking to me and we were hanging out by the water cooler.

Author Note 03/04/08

how the heck you guys figured how to text me is a mystery to me. (you know who you are.)

And i still have restraining orders against some others, LmAo!

Got a lot of writing done on the
bus ride home yesterday. Almost missed my stop because I was so immersed in my book. I learned how to type on my jornada with four fingers (two from each hand) and I'm pretty good at it although the spell check function is off so I don't see my errors until I transfer it to the full word version.


tanya: i'll post today. thank you for not buzzin. doesn't sitting on pins and needles hurt? i still gnaw on my nails. And yeah, when I have it set for a character to get hurt, i don't see what's in the future for them. I only see the now. Now Charisse is in a very bad situation.

Suprina: What's an HEA? My heads on backwards and i couldn't figure it out for the life of me.
1.can't answer this right now because i don't know what an HEA is.
2. see number one
3. not yet
4. (story spoiler)that's their intention but after so it looks like she saved them.


yeah email it to the hubbooks@yahoo.com address.

tori:i love it how your emotions changed so quickly. sorry i scared you so bad. okay that was a lie because that was intentional.

cinquetta: i'll fix it slowly but surely.

Paula: (after getting over that your message was screaming at me in all caps, LOL.)...lint licking twins? You sound like Blu.

lilo.gurl.14: truth is always stranger than fiction though and those are my favorite shows too, except big love. don't have cable so I haven't seen that.

Anonymous: please leave some nail for the rest of the c's.

Pris: Eva D only THINKS i wouldn't kill the main. I mean maybe Chyna should win in all this. That's be a different turn of events wouldn't it. (although I'd get massive death threats and maybe some attempts to my life too.) I'm all about different. he he he (laughing wickedly.)

I was thinking bout Richard in Tanner's Devil. I might bring him about and stick him with some girl character I really don't like. I was really thinking bout Shadow's evil heifer mother. Taming that cow with Richard's charm would really be a challenge. Betcha guys don't remember Shadow. If so, name the book.

And thanks for your support to my writing endeavors. Now go tell 49 friends.

Hot & Furious (TIA): I killed kids in Stone's Revenge. Two actually. Ran them right over with a car. BAMN!

Yes, I'm saying that.

He really didn't need a man to ride with him but Jaelen insisted because Kimberly ordered it so and Jaelen wouldn't dare say no to his Kimber when she's insistent.

Yeah, if everyone followed their gut we probably wouldn't have so much drama. But what fun would that be?

anonymous2: did i say that? hmmmm, must have spoken too early. and yes something nasty did happen.

jr boss: I'm still thinking of what happens.

Anonymous 3: i would love to know what a texas size beating is. i bet that would be something to watch. I might use that in my lethal book.

carmel Beauty: i could barely understand what you were saying cuz you didn't use any periods and you seem to be out of breath. good lawd gurl. stop checking expedia.

okay. off to writing again.

i'm going to try to fix things.

i think...

Chapter 44.2

yeah, you're going to kill me, but i really tried to find anotherway to get to this point and yes, the S.H.T.F. like it ain't funny.

Now you may think, well, she gotta out of the house. she could have sneaked away from Cheyenne and climbed down the stairs and hidden away and she's just going to make this beautiful appearance. Parker will sweep her up in his arms and they'll live happily ever after.

can Cheyenne really kill her pregnant sister? I think if she could kill her twin then killing her sister sses evitable .


I'm taking a brain break and then starting up on my way home.

enjoy...

Carmel Beauty: I think she just doesn't want to make the time or she just pretends that time doesn't really exist, when she's never been concerned about it before.



A lot of us live like this. We put off tomorrow what we can do today and Charisse is an example of how we shouldn't.

Goood morning, guys.

Yeah, I just posted without saying something, but I've had a long weekend.

Too long.

anyhoo, I'll be back later to talk with you.

I approved all your comments and read them, but I didn't respond to any.

I'm typing like a mo'fo on crack and just feeling real stiff all over.

Going to CVS to get a warm compress cause I don't like this feeling.

Okay, read on, comment on and let me know if I missed something.
