I'd like to introduce you to Twitch and my new favorite book. Enjoy!
Title: Raw
Author: Belle Aurora
Genre: New Adult Dark Romance
Release Date: January 3, 2014
Hosted by: Love Between the Sheets Promotions
Synopsis
*Author Note: This is not a love story. This is a story of love gone wrong.* Growing up the way I did, you’d think I’d be more screwed up than what I actually am. Soon as I turned sixteen, I left that bump in the road I called home and took my chances on the street. Best decision I ever made. Now, at the age of twenty six, I’m educated, employed and damn good at my job. My friends have become my family. Like me, they know what it’s like to grow up unloved. But the saying is true. The world makes way for those who know where they are going. That’s me. I know where I’m going and I’ll get there eventually. On my own terms and at my own pace. But then there’s him. I feel his eyes on me. I see him hiding in plain sight. He watches me. He makes me feel. It’s unconventional. But it’s real. I’m sure you’re wondering how a person falls in love with their stalker. So am I. This isn’t a story. This is my life.

Mini Teaser
Staring down at my chest, she takes a step closer to me and whispers miserably, “I’m here to let Brad fuck me.” My cheek ticks and head implodes. She steps closer to me to add, “He’s going to fuck me. Fuck me til I forget you. Til I forget I ever met you. He’s helping me drown you out and I like when I’m not thinkin’ about you.” She looks into my eyes and repeats on a whisper, “You’re poison.”
Jenn's Review
I started Raw the other night and next thing I know it’s the
middle of the night and the last thing I want to do is put the book down and go
to bed! No matter their attitude, I loved each character. That never happens to
me. And even though one (Ling) is a raging b!tch, she is redeemed later.
Lexi has a stalker. She has felt him for a while, always
seems to know when he is there. She’s never seen his face; he stays covered
with a hood. When she gets home from work one day, Lexi is attacked outside her
apartment. It’s her hooded stalker that ends up saving her. He takes her inside
and tends to her wounds. Even though she probably shouldn’t, she feels safe
with him there. And, since every time she closes her eyes she sees her
attacker, she asks him to stay. He calls himself Twitch and he really doesn’t
give her much more than that. Not his real name and nothing about him. Just
enough that should scare her away but it’s too late. She feels protected, even
though she shouldn’t. Even though he’s dangerous and knows he could hurt her,
she wants him.
Twitch wants her too. And he wants her to submit to him.
Then when she does, he wants to hurt her. She gave him hope. She made him think
that at least one person cared about him but, that was a lie. No one cared about
him and he was almost killed proving that. That night, changed him. He is angry
and he wants to do something about it. So he’s lured her into his trap and the
plan is set. And, along the way…something changes. A feeling he’s unfamiliar
with starts seeping in. Love. She wants to help him. He knows he needs help but
it’s too late for that. Nothing can help him, so there love will have to be
enough.
But, there are things that even he can’t control and Lexi is
caught in the middle. I’m going to stop here. I’m afraid that if I keep going,
I’ll give it all away! I can’t begin to tell you how much I loved this story.
It was a great way to end the year. And just like the title, it was Raw. It was
dark, dirty, gritty, funny in places and frecking HOT! And, I LOVED every
second of it; I can’t seem to say it enough. I hope you love it as much. If I
could I would give it 10 stars but I’ll have to settle with 5 heart pounding,
in your face stars!!
About the Author

At an early age she fell in love with reading. Boredom one summer had her scouring the bookshelves at home. She stumbled across Sandra Brown’s Breath of Scandal and fell in love with romance.
Having been brought up in a loud and boisterous family of Croatian descent, she developed a natural love for dramatics and humor. Only some years ago had she discovered a new love.
Humorous romance novels.

Belle never thought she would write. It had never interested her until recently. Friend-Zoned began to form and in February this year Belle typed the words Chapter One. And she fell in love.
With words.
With writing.
With a creative imagination she never knew she harbored.
