Blog Tour & Review: Into the Fire by E.L. Todd







Ash

Despite everything I've done for my parents, I'll never be good enough for them. Instead of seeing a man to be proud of, they just see an embarrassment. I served four tours in Afghanistan but that doesn't mean anything to them. They only see the ink, the party life, and my short stint in jail.

And nothing else.

When they were in trouble, I handed over my life savings. I didn't think twice about it because they're my family, my blood. They raised me to be my own man and gave me everything I needed. It didn't matter that it was every penny I had. It didn't matter that the money was set aside for my future. My dreams.

Because they needed me.

But now they refuse to pay me back until I become the man they think I should be.

Alessandra

I have an unusual professional.

I escort men, acting as their date to family functions or work parties. It's my job to act deeply in love with my client. And I always nail it.

But it's not what you think.

I'm not a prostitute.

I'm not a call girl.

I'm an actress.

Get it right.

There are strict rules when it comes to my profession. There is no touching, kissing, or anything but hand-holding. Those who choose not to comply will get a swift kick in the nuts.

But all this goes to hell when Ash walks into my life.






I sighed and left the bed. “You should go. I need to get ready.”

“For what?” His voice sounded raspy because we hadn’t spoken in so long.

I cringed because I didn’t want to say it. “I’m seeing Brad.” Guilt flushed through me. Was I really the kind of girl that went on a date right after I slept with someone? It grossed me out.

Ash’s eyes immediately darkened and he looked pissed. A fire erupted in his eyes, but the flames were black. “So, you’re just going to run off and have dinner with this chump?”

I didn’t want to fight so I kept my mouth shut.

He gripped me by the wrist and yanked me back into bed. “Call it off.”

“Call it off?” I asked incredulously. “I’m supposed to meet him in a little over an hour.”

“Tell him you’re sick.” He squeezed my wrist.

“I’m not bailing on him.”

“Just do it,” he ordered.

“And why should I?” I grew heated, all the anger coming back. “Give me one good reason, Ash.”

He held my gaze without blinking. “Me.”

“You?” I couldn’t keep the venom out of my voice. “What about you? I should ditch a nice guy so I can keep being your fuck buddy? What’s the point in that?”

“It’s pretty damn clear you’d rather be with me instead of him.”

His cockiness was usually endearing but now it was just irritating. “You’re such an ass.” I yanked my arm out of his grasp.

He grabbed me again. “Why go to him when you have me? I make you happy. I give you what you need. It doesn’t make any sense to go out with him. You really want some lame lawyer?”

“He’s a very nice guy.”

“Like you want a nice guy,” he barked. “You want me. Why else would you have slept with me for two days?”

I didn’t answer his question. “I’m not going to keep doing this, Ash. I need something more than a fuck buddy. I’m looking for a relationship, a long lasting one. This was fun while it lasted but it’s over. Let’s just walk away and move on.”









Into the Fire by E.L. Todd will leave you breathless and hot!

Ash is a sexy tattoo artist that doesn’t do relationships and doesn’t believe in commitment. Cue Alessandra. She is an escort he hired to fool his parents. It was lust a first sight and the plan worked. But were his parents the only ones convinced? Maybe his heart fell for it too?

And just as enraptured as Ash was with her, Alessandra feels the same pull. Especially when he talks about a certain piercing and what it can do. She takes the bait hook, line, and sinker. However, Ash doesn’t do forever. They are just friends with benefits, only her heart didn’t remember the rules. Will they be able to get on the same page? Will things work out for them? Or are they just going to fall by the wayside and become a memory to each other.

The story ensnares you and you need to keep turning the page to see what is going to happen next. The characters are developed and Ash is complex. He isn’t exactly what he appears. And the sex scenes…HOT!! I rate it 4.5 stars and say you have to read this book. You won’t regret it. One click it now!






Into The Fire is the first book in the Gorgeous Entourage Series. I would give this book a 4 stars and definitely recommend to others. This story is about the nice girl meets the bad boy.... but with a great twist. This author can definitely melt your panties with her sexy scenes! This is the first story I have read by this author but I will be reading more in the future-- she caught me hook line and sinker.

Ash and Alessandra don't meet in the most conventional way but they will learn that the chemistry between them is too hot to ignore... and things will get explosive!

What started out as a job will turn into something neither was ready for ... but the problem is will they give into the pull or push against it and loose each other forever?

You don't wanna miss this steamy romance so get to once clickin! And if you loved this story just wait Into The Ice is coming next and Glacier and I am guessing he has earned his name... Thanks for a great story!






Ash. Sigh
Ash is sexy, cocky, unapologetic and true to himself. He is honest to a fault, he will tell you even if you don't want to hear it. Ash is looking to get back some money that he had loaned his parents a while back. His parents not happy with his life decisions (tattoo's and an endless stream of women) put a condition on his reimbursement: find a serious girl and we will give you your money back.
Ash doesn't do commitment or girlfriends so he findsBeautiful Entourage and hires someone to pose as his girlfriend.

Alessandra works at Beautiful Entourage and enjoys helping others out by posing as a girlfriend. But there are rules; no touching, kissing, nothing more than hand holding. That all gets tossed out the window the minutes Ash enters the scene. The great thing about Alessandra is that she likes Ash just the way he is and would never encourage him to change.

Their attraction to each other is palpable and Ash reminds her that he is not boyfriend material but they become close friends and so much more. The exchanges between these two are hilarious. The snark and banter will keep you turning the pages.

What happens when their time is up? Will they be able to walk away from each other?
