Hola, Lovelies!
I’m so honored you stopped by to learn a little about me and my first CYOA (Choose Your Own Adventure) A Soldier’s Seduction. With the different possible choices—for both the reader and for myself—this was such a fun story to write. I hope you enjoy it as much as I do. ;-)
I’d also like to thank my wonderful host for having me here today. You so totally rock! & Hi, I’m Brandi, and I’m, unapologetically, Southern.
I’ve always lived below the Mason-Dixon Line. Even as a child while my dad was in the military, we never ventured too far North. From the Natural State to South Carolina to the great state of Misery—crap Missouri, my bad ;-)—the South has always been my home.
I’ve traveled up North, sure. I affectionately remember this one trip to Maryland when I couldn’t find a glass of iced tea for love nor money! They had this peach-flavored Brisk at the soda fountain, but that crap was not tea. *shivers* I’m not even sure it could be classified as a proper drink.
Anyway, by the time we drove back into Virginia on our way home, I was going through some serious withdrawal! When we stopped for lunch at Cracker Barrel and I finally got a glass of tea, I nearly cried.
No lie.
Now, I’m sure most of you are probably rolling your eyes, but that’s just because you don’t understand. We take our iced tea seriously in the South. Not as seriously as football or BBQ, but pretty darn seriously. So in honor of my Southern heritage, I’ve compiled the following list.
10 Reasons I Like Living In The South
1. Sweet tea.
2. I don’t have to explain how far “yonder” is.
3. Grits.
4. I can use the word “fixin’” as a noun, verb or adjective.
5. I’m surrounded by others who understand BBQ is NOT a condiment…it’s a state of mind.
6. Cowboys (well cowgirls too).
7. You can deep-fry anything, even butter.
8. Front porch swings.
9. I can pretty much wear the same clothes all year ‘round.
10. I don’t have to explain or defend my accent!
Can I get a shout out from all my Southern brothers and sisters out there?!
Later lovelies!
About The Author
In reality, Brandi grew up the oldest child of an ordinary family. Grade school, middle school, high school. Nothing extraordinary happened until she left the nest. She joined the military, went to college, got married, and became a mom. And somewhere along the way, she discovered she liked to read—and write!—stories hot enough to melt eReaders.
These days, she calls The Natural State home where she lives with her hubby, two beautiful daughters, two dogs and a cat who has yet to realize she doesn’t own the place. Soldier. Wife. Mom. Multi-published smut writer. Brandi's life might not be "traveling Gypsy" interesting, but she's had fun. And in the end, isn't that all that really matters?

Book Description:
When Gen learns her best guy friend is going back to Afghanistan, she arranges an erotic sendoff he’ll never forget.
GENEVIEVE FOSTER can no longer deny the truth. She’s fallen in love with her business partner and best friend, LIAM ENGLAND. She’s hesitant to tell him the truth, at least until she learns his National Guard unit is going back to the Middle East. Now, all bets are off. She heads to the mall for the perfect erotic outfit. And by outfit, she, of course, means lingerie. A dark blue baby-doll for an intimate evening in or a leather bustier for a night of sinful pleasures at The Erogenous Zone...

Book Excerpt:
Liam arrived at my place right on schedule, not that I expected anything less. The man was as punctual as he was gorgeous, and tonight, he was crazy gorgeous. Maybe the soft candlelight was messing with my head — or maybe it was the wine.
Either way, my handsome companion looked positively fuckable. And the most ironic part? He wore nothing fancier than a pair of old boots, tattered jeans, and a faded gray Dallas Cowboys T-shirt, the blue lettering accenting the azure of his eyes. He hadn’t shaved, nor had he made it to the barber like he’d planned. His blond locks fell just beyond Army-regulation short, the combo working together to give him a sexy, just-rolled-out-of-bed look.
Looking good came so easily to Liam. Unlike me. I’d spent the entire day getting ready for this. Lily and I had spent the morning at a day spa. We’d gotten the works — mani-pedis, skin abrasion treatments, massages, body wraps. Hell, Lily had even talked me into getting that Brazilian wax. So now, every inch of me was soft, smooth, and smelling like rose petals.
I’d bought a simple baby-doll dress to perfectly conceal my nightie. My hair hung in long ringlets down the middle of my back, and my bare feet showed off freshly painted toenails and the brand-new silver toe ring that looped around the long toe. I’d wanted everything, myself included, to be perfect. Well, as close to perfect as I could humanly get.
Liam set his keys in the ceramic change bowl by the door, his gaze crawling up and down my body. “What’s with the getup, Gen? Were you expecting someone else?”
“Nothing’s with my outfit,” I lied, suddenly feeling severely overdressed but in a way that made me feel naked. Not physically naked but mentally so, as if my ploy to seduce him was so obvious it was laughable. “I figured since you’re leaving for Afghanistan soon, we’d try something different tonight. Is that okay?”
Liam didn’t hesitate for a moment. “Perfectly okay. I just wish you’d told me.” He tapped the end of my nose. “I feel like a complete slob standing here next to you.”
“You look wonderful, Liam. Just like always.” I froze. Holy crap, had I just said that out loud? * Thankfully, the timer on my phone chose that moment to sound, saving me from my stupidity. I spun from Liam’s penetrating gaze and headed for the kitchen, but he followed me. Great. Apparently, there was no escape for the verbally inept.

My Book Review:
A Soldier's Seduction engages the reader to participate in an interactive erotic romance in which they get to choose which erotic adventure Genevieve Foster should take when she plans to seduce her best friend and business partner Liam England, after finding out that his National Guard unit was going to be deployed back to Afghanistan.
Gen and Liam met in college and an instant close friendship blossomed, and over the years they stayed close. They have always been there for each other: from Liam's wife Karen's battle and loss to cancer two years ago, to her ex-husband Charlie's arrest for soliciting a prostitute. Though they have an intimate relationship, they never crossed the friends-to-lovers line. But Liam's pending deployment changed everything, and Gen is determined to seduce him and tell him how she really feels about him, that she loves him. Gen gets help in forming her plan to seduce Liam from best friend Lily, a plan that has two erotic adventure choices: The sexy girl-next-door and an intimate night in, or the bad girl / kinky seductress and a night at an exclusive sex club called The Erogenous Zone. So what's a girl to do when she has two erotic adventure choices and a sexy man that she plans to seduce and profess her love?
OMG! Author Brandi Evans weaves a thoroughly entertaining interactive erotic romance tale that easily captivates the reader and engages them to participate in Gen and Liam's naughty but oh so much fun erotic adventure! Not only does the reader get to choose which adventure that Gen and Liam will get to enjoy on one hot, steamy, erotic night, but they also get to choose from two more scenarios for each erotic adventure. And of course since I couldn't just stick to making one choice in reading which erotic adventure they embarked on, I chose to read both!
A Soldier's Seduction is a one hell of a kinky tale that will definitely get your sexual juices flowing. Beware, author Brandi Evans weaves a seriously HOT erotic romance tale that not only got Gen to experience sexual liberty and discover her true sexual self, she also weaves an erotic tale that knows no boundaries, so if you're prone to blushing, you have been warned, this is not a tale for innocent romance readers, it is for the mature and adventurous audiences who appreciates the spicy side of life!
