Today I am taking part in the Book Blitz for Breaking Brandon. It swifty moved right up there with my top books. I just love him. More than I ever thought I could have. I even found a little picture that just sums him up for me. Wanna see? It’s a good thing I was taught to share!

What do ya think?He’s HOT, right?
Sizzling.

I have decided to share some other things with you today. An excerpt, a couple of teasers and a few facts about Regina and Brandon.

She was as sure about herself as he’d expected her to be. Of course he liked what he saw, and of course, no matter how strong of an effort he’d put into trying to hide it, she already knew it and probably had from day one. “Ms. Brady—”
“Uh, uh, let’s not go back to that,” she said, tracing his lips with her fingers. “Call me Regina.”
Parting her legs, she brought his hand down to her inner thigh. The warmth of the soft flesh against his hand had him straightening out. “Regina, you’re under the influence of—”
The second her luscious soft lips touched his again he took her face, cradling it in his hands, and kissed her wildly, eating up every inch of her mouth, feeling on the verge of madness. She moaned in delight, spreading her thighs further, and he gave up resisting, lifting her skirt up until he realized she wore no panties. He pulled away and froze, staring in those huge brown eyes that sparkled with anticipation.
“You know you want me,” she said with unabashed confidence as she rubbed his hand over her warm hot wetness.
He was so hard for her it pissed him off. As much as he’d like to, it was impossible to deny it. He buried a finger in her as he watched her head fall back. “You want more,” she said with a moan.
“I do,” he finally admitted.
“You wanna fuck me?” she purred, smiling smugly.
He stared at her as he felt her hands undo his pants’ top button and begin to unzip him. Lowering his own hand, he stopped her just as her soft warm fingers had begun to pull him out of his underwear. Shuddering, he squeezed his eyes shut but held her hand firmly in his then opened his eyes slowly. Her big brown eyes stared back at him, anxiously waiting. His eyes dropped down to her lips, those lips he’d yearned to taste for too long and tasted just as divine as he’d imagined.
He licked his lips and lifted his eyes to meet hers once again. “I want more.”

Sitting up in a hot sweat and with an aching erection, Brandon glanced around panicked. He wasn’t still in Regina’s room on her bed. He was in his own bed, and his alarm was going off.

5 fun facts from Regina and Brandon, with a few extras thrown in from Elizabeth
Brandon and Regina gives us 5 Fun facts about each we didn’t know about
Regina smirks digging her teeth into her bottom lip as she glances at Brandon then clears her throat and sits up all no nonsense like.

“Ok counting down fun facts from number five. You might not know this about Sergeant Billings,” she winks at him with a grin as he stares at her lifting a brow.”Or maybe you did if you were paying close attention…. He sleeps in the nude.” She leans over and kisses him lightly on the lips whispering. “And of course now he has me doing it, too.”

Brandon appears undaunted by this but doesn’t take his eyes off her even as she pulls away giving her that unreadable stare only he can do so well.

“Number four fun fact,” she continues. “Most won’t be surprised but as um… particular as Brandon can be about most things. He’s very good in the kitchen,” she grins at him sinfully. “And I don’t just mean with me on the counter.” Brandon’s eyes shoot open obviously not expecting her to share that with us. Regina laughs but continues. “I mean he’s a very good cook and still can’t get over how much I lucked out meeting someone this hot, this sweet, but who can also cook the way he does. Talk about feeling like a pampered princess.”

We get a little smile from Brandon this time as he straightens out in his chair. *Whispers* Did I mention he’s in his fatigues and looks too damn hot for words!

“Number three,” Regina smiles big leaning into Brandon. “That last one just reminded me of this. He’s adding another tattoo to his collection that reads Princess Billings.”

Now we get a glimpse of that full beautiful smile. Regina giggles kissing him again a bit longer than last time. This time Brandon brings his hand around her neck pulling her closer for a much deeper kiss and as much as I’d like to sit here and watch dreamily… it’s getting hot and my note cards I’m using to fan myself are not big enough for the heat I’m beginning to feel! *Ahem!* Thankfully Regina pulls away a bit embarrassed though Brandon’s serious expression offers no apologies.

Rubbing his thigh with her hand she smiles. “Fun fact number two. For someone who puts on such a tough act, barely ever smiling, I’ve now seen Brandon laugh almost to tears.” She giggles and Brandon actually chuckles shaking his head. “Okay so it’s only certain people in my family that bring it out in him but still. He’s laughed to the point he was holding his sides more than once now.”

After whispering some stuff and laughing some about it Regina clears her throat and continues.

“Number one fun fact about Brandon is something new for him and I’m so happy about this by the way .” Brandon peers at her curiously. “When I first met Brandon he was all about no attachments. Obviously he made an exception. Anyone whose read our story will know this,” she says smiling sweetly at him. “But he’s continued to make exceptions. He may not admit it openly but he’s embraced my family whole heartedly even becoming very close with my brother-in-law, the kids and a few others. So the number one fun fact about Brandon is he’s now embracing making attachments of all kinds. In love and in friendship.”

She squeezes him hard and kisses him again only this time they keep it short. “Okay you’re turn,” she smiles playfully.

I now get to ogle.. err.. focus on Brandon legitimately and for good reason. He has the spotlight.

“Alright I’ll do them backwards like she did,” he informs me with that serious stare and already I can feel the sweat beading around my forehead and upper lip.

I nod nervously. “Go ahead Mr.— Uh Sergeant Billings.” He smiles at me!

“Fun fact number five and I mentioned to Regina even she wouldn’t know some of these,” Regina stares at him half smiling. “She murmurs in her sleep.”

Regina’s mouth falls open. “I do not!”

“Yeah you do,” he says very smugly. “Most of the times I can’t make out what you’re saying,” we’re indulged once again with another very satisfied smile. “But a few times I have and it’s very interesting.”

Regina begins grilling him in a hushed voice but I hear him tell her he has to move on to the next one. He turns back to me still looking too smug.

“Fun fact number four,” he glances at Regina for a moment his expression changing—going a bit serious. “She can surf.” He stares at her for a moment, raising an eyebrow. “A little too well for someone who only spent one summer doing it.”

“It really was only one summer,” she insists.

Suddenly the playful Brandon who spoke of her murmuring is gone and Sergeant Billings is back in the room. “Fun fact number three,” he says all humor gone from his eyes. “She’s been refilling the empty tote in my closet.”

“Brandon!” she says bringing her hand to her flushing face.

“That’s all I’m saying about that,” he assures her. “Fun fact number two,” he continues quickly. “She and her baby sister think no one is on to them trying be sneaky about getting her older sister hooked up with—”

“That’s not true!” Regina protests.

“Babe, you’re not sneaky. It’s pretty obvious.”

“I meant we’re not being sneaky,” Regina smiled. “I didn’t realize you thought we were trying to be.”

“Good to know because everyone knows what you two are up to.” He squeezes her leg and takes a deep breath. “Number one fun fact about Regina?” he looks back at her going from playful to serious to almost nervous and we actually see him gulp. “She’s taking a home pregnancy test when we get home.”

Regina and I both gasp. “Brandon that’s supposed to be a—”

“By the time this is posted everyone will know babe.” He winks at her and as playful as he attempts to look he’s lost some facial color. “Trust me.”

I’m speechless but have no choice but to thank them for joining me and wrap it up. On to interview Elizabeth Reyes!

We asked Elizabeth two choose some of her favorite lines from Breaking Brandon. In no particular order she gave us her list but being the tease that she is she’s made very short comments on why she chose them then said she’d just let you the readers figure it out. She CLAIMS she doesn’t want to spoil anything for the reader. Hmph!

So let’s examine these. Up first is this one.

He finally understood what his father had meant all those years. That kind of deep emotion—the kind he felt suffocating his heart at that moment—was sacred. It was something that should remain deep inside. No one had a right to know you were feeling it but yourself.

Her comment was this sets up how much it will take to Break Brandon. Hmm..

Next she chose this one.

Regina: You’ve obviously made some kind of assessment about me, yet you know nothing about me.”
Brandon: “That’s right. I don’t. And I’m sorry that my lack of desire to know more upsets you.”

Ouch! Reyes only gives us a smug smile. Tease!

Another one of her favorites:

“Sir, I can explain.”
“Yes, you can and you will,” Brandon said, his tone hard and full of authority just as he’d been trained by the very best. “Only not here, not like this.” He got right in Rodriguez’s face. “I want a full report on my desk tomorrow morning, explaining why you ignored a direct order from your superior. I wanna know exactly what you were talking to her about when you’ve been instructed to stay away from her entirely. And also want you tell me why the hell I shouldn’t write you up.”

Reyes comments is, “One of the very first signs of breaking down and he knows it.”

On to the last one she

“What I was doing before you . . . Baby, I may as well have been dead. My life now with you compared to what it was then . . . I was dead.”

Here I only comment about this one was a “Sigh!” and a big smile.

I think it’s time now for a second teaser, don’t you?
