**Counts of Eight by Brynn Ford**
Good Morning,
Everyone! So thrilled to see you all today! Not too long ago, I had this author
on the blog talking about this very boom with the cover release! Today she is
back and speaking about the fact that the book is now available. Yay! Please
allow me to re-introduce to the blog, Brynn Ford and her release COUNTS OF EIGHT
…
**BRYNN FORD**
**BIO**
Brynn
Ford is an independent author of romance in all of its beautiful and sensually
taboo forms. She is a lover of the dark, twisted, and playful and strives
to bring the unmentionable aspects of passionate romance into her stories.
Brynn resides in the Midwest with her husband and sons, whom she expects will someday be embarrassed by their mom's books. When she isn't obsessively writing, you may find her binge watching favorite shows while eating far too much junk food or fanatically reading, always seeking to lose herself in the emotional roller coaster of a damn good story.
She is quite the idealist, despite her fascination with the wicked and warped aspects of humanity. Some of her stories may run out of words before a happily ever after, but she's a firm believer that her characters continue to live on outside the pages in the minds of her readers. Stories don't end just because there aren't anymore pages to turn.

**BLURB**
All of my choices had been stripped from me except for
one. Dance or die.
Three
years ago, I was taken, stolen away, far from the world I knew, far from
civilization. I became a slave, forced to serve one of the four families with
my talent.
I’d
been abused, battered, tortured in isolation. My Master brought me men,
partners for performance, but they failed to live up to the high standard of
dance my Master required.
Until
one day, he brought me a new man. A blonde-haired, green-eyed, dreamy new man
who had no idea what was coming.
The
men before him had disappeared. I presumed they were dead. I couldn’t afford
myself the luxury of hoping they’d made it out alive because that would give me
hope that I might someday do the same.
Hope
was a dangerous thing and this new man’s spirit still thrummed with that
electric spark of lightness. I would be the woman to strip that hope from him
piece by tiny piece until he had none left. Only then could I control him, use
him. Only then could I even consider the possibility of a predictable,
complacent survival in this nightmare life.
And
until that time came, I would make the only choice I was given the liberty of
making.
Dance
or die.
CONTENT WARNING: This book contains explicit sexual content, violence, and
mature themes including scenes where consent is not sought or given. The author

the true horror of the characters’ experience. This is your trigger warning –
reader discretion is advised.
**EXCERPT **
This woman wishes to own me, to do me harm, for what
reason, I still don’t know. But the sight of her talent in motion gives me
goosebumps, makes my heart thump and my thigh muscles twitch to be in motion
with her on the dance floor.
A dancer always dances.
The song comes to an end and so does her movement. Her
eyes immediately lock onto mine and again comes the glacier from the icy blue,
scraping slowly but steadily across the space between us.
She strides across the floor toward me with all the poise
of a dancer exiting the stage after a performance.
She sighs. “I wasn’t expecting you today. You’ve
interrupted my rehearsal.”
“I hate to break it to you, princess, but this has
interrupted my whole life. So why don’t we just cut ties now and get out of
each other’s hair?”
“No one leaves once they’re brought here.” Her eyes shift
away, then back to pierce mine again.
I let my tired head fall over onto my arm. “Please spare
me the cryptic bull crap. What am I doing here?”
“You’re here to dance.”
“To dance?”
“I require a partner for our annual performance. My last
didn’t live up to my master’s expectations…” She steps closer, invading my
personal space. “That partner is gone now, and you are here to replace him.”
“Gone?”
“Yes, that’s what I said. Why do you keep repeating me?
My English is excellent, can you not understand me through my accent? I lived
in New York since I was eleven. Perhaps I’ve developed another accent that you
have trouble understanding.” She tilts her head as her words drip with sarcasm.
The side of my mouth curls
up. I might have found her interesting if it weren’t for the circumstances.
