WARNING
Prepare to laugh your butt off and become extremely hot & bothered! Brooklyn Bennett breaks the mold when it comes to female heroines she is not your average chick! She loves sex, hot guys, and her best friend Savannah fiercely and has a slight obsession with Jared Leto.
You got to know me in my
best friend Savannah’s series. Now it’s my turn to tell you my story
and for you to see my best friend's journey to her happily ever after
through my eyes.
My life is far from the norm. First off, I’m not your average girl. I’m wild, crazy, and everyone who knows me say’s I’m a free spirit. I guess I am, because I don’t sweat the little things.
Life is too short.
I love hard and live harder. My dream is to become a star and that dream comes first and foremost before anything and anyone...except for my best friend Savannah, who I'd go to hell and back for. At 24 years old, I’m not looking for love. I’m just looking for a good time and a nice distraction after busting my butt on a movie set all week. The thought of falling in love has never crossed my mind. I’m too driven for love and everything that comes with it.
That is until I meet a certain Southern hottie by the name of Dixon Beaumont, who just so happens to be the cousin of Kayden Knox. He flips my world upside down the moment we meet.
The only problem is he’s the male version of me: Career driven and enjoying having a good time with no plans on settling down.
Throw in a bad boy rocker and a sweet Aussie and I find myself going from a simple, carefree life to a full-blown love square. It’s going to be dramatic. But hey, what’s life without a little drama?

Danielle Jamie has done it again with the first book in her new series Brooklyn Series; Wasted Love! After reading the Savannah Series where the reader has a glimpse at Savannah's best friend Brooklyn and her fiesty, sometimes crazy antics, I was thrilled to be able to read a story from her point of view. The reader was able to see some of the other side of Savannah and Kayden's romance and to also see how Brooklyn and Dixon's relationship began from her perspective. I can't wait to read more from this series and I know that you will love it too! This was a 3.5 star read for me and I highly recommend both series to everyone!
Brooklyn, an aspiring actress who is in the very beginning of her career agrees to move to Texas with her best friend Savannah, who wants to get away from the microscope that her life seems to be under in LA and also to be closer to her boyfriend Kayden. It is there that Savannah meets his sexy, brooding, womanizer cousin Dixon; one of the only men that seems to be able to resist the charms that usually have guys falling at her feet.
Brooklyn is drawn to Dixon like a moth to a flame, wondering why he is so resistant to her. Trying to wear him down being nothing other than her charming, blunt self, she does little to succeed and instead starts to try the jealous tactic by flirting with Kayden's main security man Jax. The man with the panty-dropping Austrailian accent can warm her bed anytime, even though it is Dixon that she really wants.
The reader becomes almost entranced with the push and pull between Brooklyn and Dixon throughout the remainder of this first book. I laughed out loud one more than one occasion at some of the words that fly from Brooklyn's mouth, especially before she thinks. I cannot wait to read more of Brooklyn and Dixon's story in the next book in the series.
I can feel my bed dip
slightly as I sense someone climbing into bed and lying beside me. The heat
from their body travels through my thin cami. I know I’m not dreaming as soon
as I feel a hand touch my thigh and slowly begin to travel up my side.
I’m lying on my side,
facing the large wall of windows that overlook Houston as the moonlight
glistens through the room. Other than the light from the moon and the clock on
my stand, the entire bedroom in engulfed in darkness.
I blink, trying to
get my eyes to focus. Everything is blurry, and my body feels as if it’s still
in a dream. I glance towards the glowing clock on the nightstand to see what
time it is. It’s just a little after six in the morning; I’ve only been asleep
for a few hours.
Rolling onto my back,
I raise my hands up above my head to stretch, causing a tiny squeak to slip out
of my mouth. Coming into focus beside me is Jax.
Am I still dreaming?
Pinching a piece of
skin on my forearm, I shout, “Ouch…I guess I’m not dreaming?” and let out a
small giggle.
Jax’s eyes smile down
at me, glowing in the moonlight illuminating my bed. “Nope. You’re definitely
not dreamin’, baby.” His words, mixed with the sensation of his fingers
trailing up and down my thigh, cause my body to erupt in goose bumps. My core
tightens with anticipation as his fingers slowly slide higher up my leg and work
their way towards my inner thigh.
Closing my eyes
momentarily, I inhale deeply before opening my eyes and locking them with
Jax’s.
“You came back?”
His hand stops
moving, and he gives my leg a gentle squeeze. “I couldn’t sleep. I’ve been
tossing and turning in there all night. The image of you half-naked in here
with just a thin wall between us was driving me absolutely mad.”
He’s leaning on his
left arm, with his head resting in the palm of his hand as his brown eyes
search my face. His fingers begin their course again, making their way up my
body agonizingly slowly. Just as his fingers get to the edge of my panties, he
runs them over the thin fabric separating us, causing my eyes to slam back shut
and a shudder to shoot through my sex as it clenches with anticipation of his
fingers entering me.
Finally, after what
feels like an eternity, he slides the thin fabric of my panties to the side,
all the while never taking his eyes off mine. With a perfect pace, he begins
moving his fingers over my sex, spreading my juices from my entrance to my
clit.
My eyes momentarily
roll back as I feel a spark ignite in my core.
“This is your last chance to back out, Brooklyn. Once I start, there’s
no way in hell I’ll be able to stop.”
