I will come for you.  
REVIEW

I received a copy of this book from the author in return for signing up to her book tour. And in return for an honest review of course :)

Night Fury is a short Novella, the first in the Night Fury Series. It didn't take me long to zoom my way through it. I was pulled in massively. After reading Belle Aurora's RAW a while back and aboslutly falling in lvoe with it, I was pretty excited to see that she had another book ciming out (although still a dark book, it has nothing to do with RAW), therefore I was eager to get my mits into it.

Night Fury is different from nything I've ever read before. Caterina (or Cat), is the main character in the story. Cat lives in a convent, with Father Bob, who has pretty much raised Cat since she was orphaned as a baby. There are others there, nuns too, but nobody see's what goes on behind the doors, and behind the masks of the nuns and father Bob.  

There is love, and of course some brilliant sex, happiness, and of course some tears. What  a great start to a series, looking forward to the second installment. 

Teaser
"I trail her down the dark, dimly-lit hall. The sounds of our footsteps echo through the narrow space. I’m walking towards my destiny. How poetic. We reach the end of the hall. Frankie clicks in her keypad code. More humming and buzzing, the steel door clicks opens and finally – finally – I’m home. I take the first step towards the rest of my life. And I do it wearing a shit-eating grin. This is exciting. I’m excited. My life will be thrown one-hundred-and-eighty degrees. From boring to extraordinary. I can’t wait. “Welcome back to Mirage.” Frankie utters as she starts her descent down the stairs to the ground floor." - Catarina, Night Fury

About the Author
Belle Aurora
Belle Aurora is was born in the land down under. 
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.
Kristen Ashley and R.L. Mathewson had opened a brand new world where she could lose herself yet feel safe and at home in their stories. Belle has been known to become a screeching banshee while anxiously awaiting their newest titles.
Belle never thought she would write. It had never interested her until recently. Her first novel, Friend-Zoned began to form and in February 2013 Belle typed the words Chapter One. And she fell in love.
With words.
With writing.
With a creative imagination she never knew she harbored.

***REVIEW*** RAW by Belle Aurora

*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.
 I received a copy of this from the author in return for an honest review and taking part in her book tour. Here is my review.

Ok, I have to start by saying this book is freakin A-MAZING!! I could hardly put it down! My children have been left to their own devices for the last few days while I got my head around this fantastic book!

When  was first asked to take part in Belles book tour, I remember thinking that RAW reminded me of another book I had read recently, so I thought I'd give it a go. Boy was I wrong! RAW is like nothing else I've ever read. It has the perfect title,  RAW is exactly what it says on the tin :)

Twitch, what should I say about him? Well, he's a total power freak, egotistical male, who needs to be in control of everyone and everything around him. But damn is he hot!! I loved him, even though I probably shouldn't have. There was just something about him, something deep and rooted inside him that made you feel for him big time. 
Lexi, she was a sweet girl, cared about others more than herself, so being a case worker for foster kids was the ideal job. She had a lot of love inside her, which made me think her and Twitch, well two completely different people! 
Other characters in the book are good too, I particularly liked Happy. But I kept picturing him looking like Happy from Sons of Anarchy, not a bad thing I suppose ;) Lexis 2 friends are in the book quite often too, they make for good friends.
There are some amazing scenes in the book, there's a great scene with Michael (one of lexis case kids), and the ending, well the ending blew me away big time. And of course there is some damn goods sex!!!
If you haven't already read this, and you like to read something different, then grab a copy now!!!

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.”
