BLOG TOUR & GIVEAWAY
SUIT (THE TWIN DUO)
JETTIE WOODRUFF
RELEASE DAY SEPTEMBER 21ST
When my sister, Isabelle showed up, just ahead of a tropical storm, nostalgia and a need to reconnect took us on a ride...directly into the eye of a different kind of disaster. I woke from a coma unaware that I even had a twin and married to a man with two little girls. Although I fell madly in love with children that I didn't remember, I did't feel like I belonged with Paxton Pierce. I couldn't be who he wanted me to be no matter how hard I tried. But things aren't always as they seem. I fought my own demons, trying not to be the submissive he required me to be, yet I craved it like a drug. I wanted him.
Once upon a time I was an identical twin.
And then I wasn't.
The next time I woke the
window revealed darkness. I felt irritated, but wasn’t sure why. Maybe because
the neurologist never came like he said he would. Maybe because I hurt. I hurt
everywhere. Even my eyes. Maybe the agitation came from seeing him. Why? Why
was he there? Why couldn’t he just go away? I gave him a dirty look and hit my
call button.
Paxton nobly walked to my
side. “I can help you. What do you need?”
I shoved his hand away from
mine. With all my might, I tried to move. Just rolling to my side caused
excruciating pain. Pain like I had never felt in my life. At least not that I
remembered.
My voice raised, yet it was
faint. “I want out of this bed, I want to know what’s wrong with me, and I want
you to go away. That’s what I need!” Faded words was all that I could muster.
It even pained me to raise my voice. My muscles didn’t work, and the ones that
did, hurt too much to move.
“Seriously? Tears? Give me a
fucking break,” Paxton said, arrogant tone and all.
I wanted to tell him off,
tell him to go fuck himself. The words were on the tip of my tongue, but they
never formed in my mouth. The pain wouldn’t let them.
“What can we do for you,
Gabriella?” Another new nurse asked. She moved around me, checking vitals and
the drip in my I.V. while she spoke.
“I have to pee, and I need
something for pain.”
“You have a catheter, but I
can give you something for the pain. Tell me where the pain level is, one to
ten.”
“Ten, more than ten. Oh, God.
Give me something. Please,” I begged. My neck and shoulders hurt every time I
moved my head, but I couldn’t help it. I was in unbearable pain, and nothing
else was on my mind. I just wanted it to stop.
“Where’s the pain,
Gabriella?”
“I don’t know. All over. My
head, my neck, my back, my leg. It hurts everywhere. And it still feels like I
have to pee.”
“Let me get you some
Dilaudid. I’ll be right back.”
I squirmed as much as
possible while I waited for relief, holding a flat hand over my face. Trying to
squeeze the pain from my temples didn’t work at all. It still hurt.
“Shhh, I’ve got you. Just
relax.” Soft words were whispered into my ear and Paxton’s warm body blanketed
my chest. His hands moved around me and he held me close to him. The scent of
“Stop fighting it, Gabriella. You’re only making it worse. You’re okay. I’ve
got you,” he said in a quiet tone while leaving soft kisses around my neck.
It’s stupid, but it did feel like it helped, like maybe some of the pain was
lifted.
Tears slid down both of my
eyes and he kissed them away, shushing me with soft words. Confusing emotions
flooded my body while I wept in the arms of a man I didn’t know. I didn’t know
what to say, what to feel, what to do, nothing. I knew nothing.
My
name is Jettie Woodruff. I am from Ohio. I don't know what genre I write in.
People tell me I have my own genre. I write whatever I feel, because
that’s what makes me happy. I don’t want to be in that box where I can only write
one genre. I
tend to like my bad boy's, taboo; the touchy subjects that make you want to
throw your kindle. Usually at said hot alpha male. Sometimes the female lead as
well. My motto is life is short. Very short. If it doesn't make you happy
anymore then why do it? Move on. Some of my favorite things, besides
writing are, friends, family, and the beach. Music, although my interest has
changed after forty, I like the new stuff. Happy Reading.

Sonja's Review:
Well, it's the morning after I finished Suit and I honestly still don't know what happened. One minute I think I have it figured out and then the next minute I remember some detail and I'm right back to where I started with the not knowing. Granted, I could be overthinking it but who knows - I sure don't and if you do figure it out - then my hat's off to you. All confusion aside, I absolutely loved this book! And absolutely isn't even the right word to describe it - I was just so in love with reading Suit and I wanted it to end, but at the same time I didn't want it to end!
I loved Gabriella - she's just awesome! I love how much she loves the girls and I love the way she challenges Paxton. She's fun and playful, a little sassy, a little feisty, and she's just herself. I can't tell you how or why Gabriella's so special - maybe it's because of how genuine she is and that she doesn't play games, but I think it's her heart that makes her so special. She has the best and biggest heart and I'm really rooting for her to get her happily ever after!
Now with Paxton - I'm not sure how I feel about him right now. He made me wonder several times if he was for real because he's crazy! Like seriously cray cray sometimes and oh my gosh, but he can be the biggest jerk in the world when he wants to be. But even if I tried to hate him, I wouldn't be able to because he's so wonderful with his girls and he can be sweet and thoughtful and playful and just UGH! That rat made me completely fall in love with him and then he broke my heart, stabbed it, ripped it out, and stomped on it, the jerk!!! I'm sure I still love Paxton, but I definitely need a break from him right now.
Suit took me up and down and all around. I thought I had it solved as I was reading it, but I never stopped questioning whether I was really right or not. I wanted to be right but at the same time I didn't want to be right and the same goes for wanting and not wanting the answers. Suit is definitely the best and most mindf**kiest book that I've ever read - it was so hot and sweet and full of passion. It's no wonder why I loved this book as much as I did and it is truly one of the best I've read this year!
Suit does end in a cliffhanger that will blow your mind, confuse what is left of it and then drive you crazy. I need Slut like right now, but at the same time I'm glad for the wait. I'm so excited and nervous for Slut because I honestly have no idea what to expect. Now, I'm going to go try to read another book and push Suit to the back of my mind so I can stay sane and stop obsessing.
