Book Blurb: When Addison
Greyer, a happily married mother of three, decides to re-enter the workforce,
she never once considers that taking a job might unravel everything she thinks
to be true about her life—that it would cause her to look deep within and
confront fears she didn’t know existed. She couldn’t have foreseen how a chance
meeting or a single day can change the course of an entire lifetime.
Like many women, Addison is defined in terms of marriage and motherhood, until she suddenly finds her life turned upside down by her husband’s decision to take a job thousands of miles away. When her tough-as-nails boss offers her an opportunity she can’t refuse, Addie is forced to make difficult choices. Those choices take her further and further out of the carefully crafted fairytale life she has created and lead her into an unknown world where things are anything but black and white: a world where she learns that desire is not only dangerous but deadly. In this world, all bets are off as she is forced to finally confront her past. As her past and present collide, she has to make decisions that for most are unthinkable, decisions that can tear her family apart, and perhaps even have fatal consequences.
Bedrock is a love story designed to showcase how the choices we make ultimately shape our lives. It serves as a reminder that in the end what defines us is not the big events, the monumental occasions. It’s the tiny, seemingly inconsequential moments in between. It’s proof that time passes and we cannot, no matter how hard we try, get it back. Bedrock is a story of love and grief that pretty much sums up the context of the human experience.

My Rant: Bedrock completely rocked me.
In the beginning of the book
you don’t get to ease your way into the plot the author begins the book with an
explosion of action and your left wondering how the hell did Addison get herself into this position and what in the world is going on. You open the book
and the author is pulling at your emotions with a simple hook that doesn’t seem
to relent, you begin to get dragged into the story and at this point there is
no turning back because you are committed.
The author takes you on this erotic journey by taking you back
into time. During this journey you begin to build a connection with Addison.
You feel for her because of how she had to walk through life (sniffle). I wont
say that her life was that bad but it wasn’t good either. Sometimes the verbal
or emotional abuse hurts more than actual blows. The author lays Addison bare
to you. Addison is smart, caring and has her life all planned out because she
is focused. So when she meets Patrick you can see why he was smitten with her.
I have to admit Patrick was dreamy but the things he did to
Addison at the beginning of their relationship made me want to punch him straight
in the head, I mean the one where the real brain is laying around in, LOL. Patrick
and Addison seem to be the perfect pair. When they come together there is
an erotic explosion that is so undeniable that you get caught up in the world
wind of it and all I can say at this point is that you need to sit back and
enjoy the ride.
I began to feel like this was a dream come true until the
ish began to hit the fan in this story. I am completely torn… completely. There
are so many twist in the story I cant tell which one I want to follow the most
because they are all at the extreme level.
There are all kinds of emotions being displayed in this book. What I
really enjoyed about it, is that it wasn’t just from the main characters. Some
how the author gave voice to all the characters and it was a refreshing feeling, because
you connect with each of them so easily. You get to see their private most hidden
feelings and I loved every moment of it.
When William steps on the scene you begin to question
Addison actions, you even begin to think that maybe just maybe Patrick is not
the right guy to be with Addison but there's that tugging again that tells you
that you cant get rid of him so easily because Patrick has made his way into your
heart.
I love the authors writing style and characters because she
completely keeps your attention on the characters and there feelings. It was so
hard to put this book down completely. I was emotional, engaged, intrigued and submitting
to the unthinkable at the authors will.
My Recommendation:
I was rocked by this story and rated it 4 out of 5 purple rant hearts. I would recommend this book to anyone that loves a good erotica story with one tornado blaring twist.

Author Bio:
I'm married to a man I adore (when he
isn’t driving me crazy) and am the mother of FIVE amazing kids, who (surprise!)
also have a habit of driving me crazy. My best guess is that it’s genetic. In
addition, I founded a local network for women in 2012, which has grown to
almost 700 members. But to further prove that I may in fact be certifiably
insane, I'm scheduled to publish my debut novel entitled, Bedrock
in May of 2013. Then and only then, will I consider my training to be an expert
(life) juggler complete.
