Authors: Dee Ellis
Dee Ellis lives in the Midwest with her husband and four fur babies. While working a ‘real job’ Dee began writing down ideas that became steamy works of fiction that were very much NSFW. In her spare time, Dee likes to watch movies, travel and, of course, read. Dee is looking forward to interacting with fans, should there be any, so please feel free to look her up and give some feedback!
Well, where to start? Before I do…I have the mouth of a sailor, the heart of a saint and the mind of a dirty, dirty slut. Be warned I’m not entirely at fault for what comes next.
First I need to thank my husband for being patient and listening to me rant about filthy mouths and book boyfriends. You may not have understood it but you didn’t have to. You understand me and that’s saying a lot. I love you most often.
Secondly to the amazing authors and readers I’ve met so far. My journey has, hopefully, just begun, and it’s been blessed with beautiful people. Beautiful people who have filthy mouths and dirtier minds. My kind of people. Thank you for answering my questions and talking up a book from an author you didn’t know. Thanks for the teasers that made me weep. The supportive comments that brightened my days when I was ear deep in edits.
Thank you to my betas. Audrey for being so fucking awesome and breaking my beta cherry. You were gentle ♥. Thank you Simmy for the amazing edits. ♥ Thank you Caroline. Michelle. Jenny. Naomi. Nikki. Belle. Brynn. Lisa. ♥ Thank you for taking a chance and giving me honest but gentle feedback.
Thank you to all my Insta Smut Sisters & Book Bitches. You kept me excited as I raced towards a release, pretended to be excited even if you weren’t, introduced me to new and welcoming authors and basically did nothing to cure me of my addiction to reading and now writing good old fashioned smut. Thanks, Dolls!!
Huge thank you to the authors I have met in my short time since joining the ranks. For your feedback, enthusiasm and support. A special shout out to Dani and Dee for being always supportive and honest, even when it hurt. ♥
Lastly, and possibly most importantly. Thank you to my mother. The day I wrote The End on this book, I cried. I wanted to share it with you, wanted you to know if not even another single soul read it, or did and hated it, I did it. I think of you so often and wonder if you would be proud of me. I don’t think it would take me writing a book for that to be true, but it can’t hurt, right? You are there in the mostaccioli I feed my family, in the stockings I hang every year, in the beanie babies we still cherish and in the eyes that look back at me in the mirror. Love you, always, Mother.
Burn It Down
Finn Cooper is living the life of a real life hero: saving lives by day, giving orgasms by night. He’s fairly skilled with both, too. He goes in, does his work then gets out; no scars if he can manage. Still he’s barely surviving. The only thing good he has is the brotherhood with the other men at his firehouse. That is until his best friend’s little sister suddenly decides she wants him to be her superhero. As hot as she is smart, she screams ‘Out of Your League’ and Finn knows messing with her is like signing his death certificate. Too bad he thinks it might be worth it.
Gigi Cooper is not used to holding her tongue. Just wasn’t raised that way; with a steel strong mother and similarly strong sisters to look up to, being cautious or careful just is not in the cards for her. Like the Cooper men, she goes after what she wants; doesn’t matter to her that what she wants is her brother’s older, hotter and badder best friend, Finn. What everyone else thought was a crush at first, Finn included, is really the most challenging and important relationship in her life. Besides the one with her super protective brother Cage. Gigi is the last Cooper waiting to find her happily ever after, but she knows a secret: hers has been there the entire time.
Can Gigi convince Finn she’s worth the risk? Or will the threat of something real and solid be enough to force Finn to burn them both to the ground?
