Bastard’s Brew (Book 3)
Everything we touch we destroy
When L'Wren's ex-boyfriend Jeff suddenly disappears, she
turns to Kevin to help her find him. With one phone call, Kevin makes sure that
Jeff stays hidden and that L'Wren's heart is broken, leaving the door open for
Kevin to pursue her. But Kevin is not as free as L'Wren thinks; she is in the
dark about his affair with her stepmother, Savi. Savi constantly reminds Kevin
of his devious ways and uses their secret to keep him as her toyfriend.
“You don’t deserve to
be loved, and you don’t deserve to be happy. You and I are the same … we’re
broken inside. Everything we touch, we destroy. We don’t get happily ever after
… we don’t get to ride off into the sunset. You know who gets that? L’Wren … she
gets it, she gets the guy, and she deserves a decent guy.”- Savi
Kevin desires to be the man that L'Wren deserves, but before
he can assume the role of white knight, he brews one last plan to get rid of
Savi for good. Will L'Wren, the innocent victim in their twisted game, become a
casualty?
Kevin may have sold his body to the devil in stilettos, but
he'd be damned if he let her have his heart.

Author Bio
Gillian Felix was born in Port of Spain,
Trinidad. She grew up watching night time soap operas by Aaron Spelling with
her mother. That’s where her obsession with rich, powerful and devious
characters were born. After repeatedly seeing Mr. Spelling’s name on the
screen night after night, Gillian knew she wanted to be an Aaron Spelling,
before she knew that Aaron Spelling was actually a person.
Gillian pursued drama in high school although it
was not taught as a “serious subject”. When asked what career she wanted
to pursue after graduation, she told her guidance counselor that she
wanted to be an actress, and was told that acting is not a “real
job”.
When Gillian moved to the US in 1998, she landed
an internship with Spotlight On Theater in New York City, where she learned
stage managing, casting and the technical aspect of running a
production. Later she branched out into film, and fell in love with the
behind the scenes action of film and theatre production. She
traded acting and her “real job” for a career in film and theater
production. Gillian continued writing novels and scripts but kept them to
herself.
When not writing, Gillian can be found
volunteering at the New Mexico Children’s Grief Center or hiking the many
mountains that surround New Mexico. Gillian can easily get lost in a parking
lot and considers herself directionally challenged. She is always grateful for
the people she hikes with, because without them she’d be left roaming the
mountains like a lost mountain goat.
