Stephanie
Bradford is a young, attractive, and successful District Attorney on
her way to the top. She has the near-perfect life, with an amazing
husband, and she has it all in the palm of her hand. When her marriage
falls into a romantic rut, Stephanie is skillfully swooned by a
charming, mysterious and intriguing stranger who looks to be the answer
to all of her fantasies. A whirlwind and erotic affair quickly spirals
out of control, and before long, she learns that things aren’t always as
they appear and people are rarely who they seem. One poor decision
becomes the catalyst for a series of events that rips her life apart,
and Stephanie is left with nothing but the thirst for revenge against
the man who viciously stole everything from her. The Suicide Princess is a sexually charged roller coaster ride where nothing is as it seems and everything is at stake!
One of Derrick's
new friends invited him to play pool, but Derrick kindly declined, “Sorry, man.
I have someone else I need to focus my attention on.”
The stranger
coaxingly said, “Yeah, I'd be scared, too.”
Derrick glanced at
Stephanie as she leaned in and said, “If you don't go play and kick that guy’s
ass, I'm leaving you here alone.”
Derrick smiled his
mischievous smile and looked to the stranger, “For money or fun?”
The stranger said,
“One hundred?”
“One hundred it
is, my man. Rack ‘em up,” Derrick said as he shook his new friend's hand.
Stephanie sipped
her third drink as she watched Derrick easily defeat his new friend. At the end
of the game, Derrick said, “Must be my lucky night! One hundred, right?”
The stranger
pulled a fold of money from his pocket and began counting when Derrick
continued, “No, no, no. It's cool, man. I had fun.”
The stranger said,
“A bet's a bet, and I always pay up.”
“Tell you what,” said
Derrick. “Let me and my girl cut in for a game on the table, and we'll call it
even. That's worth more than the hundred to me.”
“It's all yours,”
said the stranger while giving Derrick a pat on the back.
Derrick reached
his hand out toward Stephanie, and she grasped it tightly, intertwining their
fingers. She pulled in close to him and said, “I'm your girl, huh?”
“Tonight you are,”
Derrick said as he shot Stephanie a wink.
“Your break,”
Derrick declared as he racked the balls.
Derrick then
watched as Stephanie began to shoot. He stood behind her and said, “Here put
your hands like this.”
“Okay, and then
what?” she asked.
Derrick pulled in close behind Stephanie as he
was showing her how to correctly hold the cue. His lips were an inch from her
ear, and Derrick took the opportunity to whisper “Did that get your panties wet
watching me beat that guy?”
Stephanie turned
back, smiled, and said, “It would have, if I was wearing any.”
Derrick reacted by
sliding his hand across Stephanie's stomach and gently pulling her back into
him. He simultaneously pressed himself forward, and Stephanie felt Derrick's
bulge pressing into her. Stephanie could easily feel how hard Derrick was as he
said, “Feel that? That's what you do to me.”
Stephanie looked
around as she slid her hand down Derrick's stomach and over his crotch. She
said, “I think it's time for me to leave, but I'm scared. Think you could walk
me to my car?”
“It depends where
your car is. This neighborhood can be awfully sketchy,” Derrick said with a
mocking tone.
Stephanie told
Derrick, “It's in the very dark, very secluded parking lot in the alley out
back.”
Derrick replied,
“Then I'm definitely not going back there. Look at what I'm wearing, I might
end up getting raped back there,” as he laughed.
Stephanie started
walking away and said, “Up to you. But if you do want something bad to happen,
come follow me.”
Derrick watched as
Stephanie took a few steps away without looking back. He looked at how her
tight skirt formed beautifully around her ass, and he noticed how sexy her legs
were in her red heels. It only took another step before Derrick was close in
tow behind Stephanie.
The pair quickly
reached the driver's side door of Stephanie's brand new white Volvo as she
said, “This is me.”
Without saying a
word, Derrick turned Stephanie so her back was pressed against the car door. He
wrapped his right arm around her lower back, and he slid the fingers on his
left hand through her hair at the nape of her neck and pulled her head in and
began kissing her.
Stephanie, again
trying desperately to not think of Jacob, noticed how different this kiss was
compared to the kiss of her husband. Jacob's kisses were always soft, slow,
gentle, and deliberate. Derrick's kiss was filled with depth and passion. The
way his lips met hers and the way Derrick caressed her tongue with his set
Stephanie on fire.
As they were
kissing, Derrick's hand slid down and began caressing Stephanie's ass. As he
felt, Derrick said, “You lied, you are wearing panties.”
Feeling the potent
combination of Derrick’s powerful sexuality and the cocktails from the bar,
Stephanie started opening the car door and replied, “Then get in here and
punish me.”
Stephanie sat in
the soft tan leather of the driver's seat, but she quickly moved herself over
to the passenger's side to make room for Derrick. Derrick sat in and adjusted
the seat all the way back, and the new car smell mixed with the leather
interior to create a wonderful scent. The two continued their passionate
kissing as Derrick's hands wandered all over Stephanie's toned, sexy body.
Stephanie started
to slide over on to Derrick's lap, and she pulled her skirt up just enough so
she could straddle her legs around him while facing him. Once on top of
Derrick, she began unbuttoning her top, and she said, “Remember what you told
me you wanted to watch the other day? That show you wanted?”
Derrick said he
remembered it quite well.
“Well.....”
Stephanie said as she pulled her skirt even higher revealing the front of her
red, lace thong. She continued, “Just watch.”
Stephanie stared directly
at Derrick as she unbuttoned her top further and pulled the front of her bra
down. She revealed her perfectly shaped C-cup breasts, and she began massaging
them with both hands. After a moment, only one hand remained on her breasts as
she began to place two fingers in her mouth, sucking them to get them wet. Once
her fingers were dripping with saliva, Stephanie slid her hand down the front
of her thong, and Derrick watched as she began fingering herself under her
panties.

***Author Interview***
Q: First, tell us a
little about you, who you are, and your background.
A: My name is Anthony Bryan, and I’m a writer. I’ve been
writing for almost my whole life, and a couple of years ago I began ghost
writing for others – it’s basically my work with their name on it. I decided
it’s time to start writing for me, and I couldn’t think of a better, more fun
genre than an erotic thriller.
I was born and raised in London, U.K., but I’ve spent the
bulk of my adult life in the United States.
I actually served with the American military, and I served in combat
operations in eastern Afghanistan. I
train in Brazilian Jiu Jitsu and Muay Thai fighting, and a perpetual black eye
is part of my attire. I guess you could
say I’ve been around, and I’m not the stereotypical erotic author. But that’s a good thing – I’m different, and
so is what I write…
Q: So, you said
you’re a writer. Tell us some of what you’ve written.
A: Unfortunately, I can’t reveal the work I did as a ghost
writer because of agreements I’ve signed with the listed authors. But I’m
stepping out of the shadows and into the spotlight with my debut title The Suicide Princess.
Q: The Suicide
Princess? That sounds like a powerful title. Is the story behind it equally as
impressive?
A: It’s even better.
Imagine taking a suspenseful thriller, a contemporary romance, and the
hottest erotica and slamming them all together at over one hundred miles per
hour – what you’d have is The Suicide
Princess. Stephanie Bradford has a
near perfect husband and what looks like the perfect life. But when her
marriage falls into a romantic rut, she’s skillfully swooned by a charming and
intriguing stranger who looks to be the answer to all of her fantasies. A
whirlwind and erotic affair quickly spirals out of control, and before long,
Stephanie learns that things aren’t always as they appear, and people are
rarely who they seem. One poor decision becomes the catalyst that rips her life
apart, and Stephanie is left with nothing but the thirst for revenge against
the man who viciously stole everything from her. It’s going to leave you
begging for more!
Q: Your ARC reviews
all comment on how incredibly hot this book is. Tell us more about that.
A: I know there are a lot of amazing stories out there that
have little if any raw sexual appeal. And on the flip side, there are a lot of
erotic stories that are smoking hot but have no story. I wanted to write
something that has both. I created an incredibly hot story that will absolutely
leave you wanting to grab your significant other and tear him apart. It’s a “change your panties, close the
bedroom door, and get you laid,” kind of hot… but with an awesome story going
on at the same time. I can’t think of a
better way to write!
Q: You mentioned “raw
sexual appeal” in your last response. So, speaking of which, we noticed both of
your leading male characters, Derrick and Jacob, have their own sex
appeal. Which of the two are you more
like?
A: I think any author will admit that a part of themselves
will always seep into their characters, so I guess in many ways I’m a lot like
both Derrick and Jacob. Jacob, being an airline pilot and having served in a
combat role in the military, has a lot of similarities to my life. But Derrick,
with his cocky, funny, and charming personality, has a lot in common with my
personality. They both have their own
kind of sexual appeal, and since they’re so different from one another,
Stephanie is completely torn between them.
To be perfectly honest, I think I’m equal parts Derrick and Jacob. Jacob is my nice side, and Derrick is my
bad-boy side.
Q: Ok, before we
start asking about your bad-boy side, we need to change the subject fast! Tell
us how you started writing.
A: When I first came home from Afghanistan, I was kind of in
a dark place. I had a hard time adjusting to what I had been through, and I was
just “lost,” for lack of a better word.
But I started writing about my experiences there, my feelings, and my emotions,
and I started feeling better. It didn’t
take long for writing to become my “safe place.” I could go there any time I wanted, and I
just loved the stories I was creating. It took a while, but eventually I
started sharing what I was writing, and everything just grew from there.
Q: Wow! That is an
amazing story and very deep - thank you so much for serving for us. So, you’re a fighter/soldier turned writer
with a British accent and an amazing imagination. Thanks so much for doing this interview, and
we can’t wait for your book to be released.
A: You’re so welcome, for both, and The Suicide Princess
will be out on November 5, 2013. Visit my website at www.AnthonyBryanAuthor.com, and
