Talking it through with my editor or critique partner helps me get back on the right path. Then there are time when I simply don't feel the love and I don't want to write. During these times I make myself sit and at least try to get 750 words into the manuscript. Whatever it is, keep writing, it'll eventually pass.(less)

Bella What is the BlackOps Brotherhood Series?

A new erotic romance series with a gritty military edge. These selfless warriors dedicated to a higher purpose. No ordinary woman could love men like those who serve as shadow warriors in the military's BlackOps community. Undying devotion to their country, and the women they love is spun throughout the stories of the men of the BlackOps Brotherhood. They save the world from unconscionable terror, and their women save them from lonely and sometimes desperate lives. Together these men and women share a love that stands the test of time. Take an erotic adventure into the home, hearts, and bedrooms of these men and woman. Travel with them to exotic and often dangerous locations that will take your breath away. Share their private explorations of love and sometimes dark forbidden desires.

Guys there's lots for you in there, too. I take pride in creating complex military suspense as well as all the romance. Give it a try...

Like all authors I have a website and you are always welcomed to visit it: http://www.bellajuarez.com/

The military is a world all it's own and it's easy to get lost and confused with all the terms and sayings. So, on my website I have a a discussion forum called the "Backbrief" this is where I post answers to questions I get about the series.

I get asked about the titles of my books, and yes there is a method to the madness here's a recent post to to the Backbrief:

Why aren't my books named the typical romance novel type names? Some would argue I like an uphill battle . Believe it or not there is a method behind the madness. Each one of my books is named after a military strategy or set of terms:

Rapid Dominance: is another term for Shock and Awe . This is a military doctrine using overwhelming power to try and achieve rapid dominance over the enemy.

Hostile Home Front: Hostile: An attack or other use of force by any civilian, paramilitary, or military force or terrorist(s) (with or without national designation) against the United States, US forces and, in certain circumstances, US nationals, their property, US commercial assets, or other designated non-US forces, foreign nationals, and their property. Home Front is is the informal term for the civilian populace of the nation at war as an active support system of their military.

Dominant Deception: Dominant: Is really taken from the term dominant maneuver which consists of two elements: strategic and operational. Strategic maneuver equates to the military's requirement to project the force. It initiates the process of creating an image in the mind of an adversary of an unstoppable force of unequaled competence. Deception was first defined as a military term by the ancient Chinese General Sun Tzu. It is a strategy that seeks to deceive, trick, or fool the enemy and create a false perception in a way that can be leveraged for a military advantage.

I hope this piques your interest in the series!

Bella Story Excerpt Rapid Dominance:

“Hello, sweetness,” Reese whispered in her ear.
Victoria jumped and the rice she was fluffing flew everywhere. Her heart felt like it had stopped in her chest.
“Damn you, Reese! You scared the crap out of me!” Victoria shouted.
“You didn’t hear me come in?” Reese asked, bewildered.
Victoria had been so lost in her thoughts that she hadn’t heard Reese until he spoke. It took her a moment to start breathing again. He was laughing and picking rice off his uniform.
“Are you okay?” Reese asked with a chuckle.
“It’s not funny!” Victoria snapped as she slammed the lid down on the rice.
Reese turned Victoria to face him. He was smiling as he pulled her close. She was upset with herself for her lack of focus, and her frustration was about to make her lose her temper with him. He kissed her forehead and lightly massaged her back. She felt herself start to turn liquid as he caressed her.
“I’m sorry. I thought you heard me,” Reese said quietly.
Victoria put her arms around Reese and buried her head into his chest. She took a deep breath and started to lose herself in his woodsy scent. She was so frustrated she wanted to cry. Her nerves seemed to be on edge all day.
What the hell is wrong with me? Victoria railed silently at herself as she willed the frustrated tears to dry. There were so many pressures converging on her at once that she didn’t know where to turn. The sudden change in her relationship with Reese was causing the most stress right now.
“What’s wrong, baby?” Reese whispered.
“I don’t know,” Victoria lamented.
“Did something happen today?” Reese asked, continuing his soft stroking.
“I didn’t get anything done today. I can’t seem to focus and I need to get these answers back to my advisor and the committee has to accept them. I need to get all this done in two weeks to be eligible to graduate,” Victoria said.
“You have all the time you need to get this done. There’s no hurry,” Reese said.
“Reese—”
“Shush. There’s no hurry,” Reese repeated, cutting her off.
Victoria inhaled deeply again. Having Reese near started to calm her and allowed her to think a little clearer.
“I haven’t been able to concentrate all day, either,” Reese said as he kissed her.
“Reese, I’ve got to finish and get a job. It’s important to me,” Victoria said.
“And you will. I know you will. One bad day isn’t going to make you fail and not graduate.”
“I wasted a whole day,” Victoria mumbled into his chest.
“Victoria, quit it,” Reese said, stroking her hair.
“Reese, I can’t keep taking your money and living here. I feel like you’re paying me to sleep with you! I mean, it’s not like I have that much to do and I’m living here…” Victoria cried.
“Stop with the money! Think a minute, how are you going to get back and forth to school and pay for the things you need? I am paying you to take care of the house so I don’t have to. Besides, it’s my damn money and if I want to blow it, I can do that,” Reese said.
“Reese, I’ve got money! I can’t…I’m moving out.”
“Victoria, quit being so stubborn and let me help you, please. I want to help you get through school. It makes me feel like I’m doing something for you. It’s the least I can do after everything you’ve done for me.”
“I didn’t do anything but keep the house clean,” Victoria argued.
“No, you did a lot more than that. You’re still helping me,” Reese said.
“What did I do? Clean the bathroom?” Victoria demanded.
“You’re helping me heal,” Reese said simply.
“Reese…” Victoria said as she started to pull away.
“I’m not talking about the divorce. I saw a lot of bad stuff when I was in Iraq. If you hadn’t been here and kept me sane, I’m not sure what I would’ve done. In case you haven’t figured it out yet, I’m a really routine guy. You could set your watch by me. My routine keeps me sane. If you hadn’t been here to help make that transition easy, I would be in some serious trouble right now.” Reese held Victoria in place.
Victoria was still and quiet. Reese was so much more complicated than he revealed. Talk about stubborn. She knew the minute she walked into this house almost two years ago he needed her. What she didn’t count on was how much she needed him. Not his money, him. He was helping her heal from a failed marriage. Victoria needed Reese’s strength, his common sense, and now his touch to keep her going as well.
“Listen to me. If you don’t graduate in December, you will graduate in May. It doesn’t matter. You don’t need the pressure of moving or a job. You need to focus on getting your degree. You’re so close! Stop worrying about trivial crap. When you get a job and start making real money, we’ll talk. Okay? Now what’s for dinner?” Reese asked.
Victoria blinked and stared into Reese’s hazel eyes. He thinks he’s just solved all my problems? The damn nerve! Just like a man! She started to respond but stopped herself. He was making sense. She knew he was making sense. She needed to swallow her stubborn pride and let him help her. She thought about how the last man in her life had burned her. Let go.


Rapid Dominance available at Amazon, book one of the Black Ops Brotherhood series introduces characters for books two and three. In Rapid Dominance meet Reese, Gavin and Jack and the women they fall in love with.

Here’s what people are saying:

“I was pleasantly surprised by Bella's first book. She definitely knows her military background. This book contains action, suspense, deception and HOT SEX. I have never read a more exciting military book in all my years. You will not be disappointed with Rapid Dominance. I can't wait to read her next book in this Black Ops Brotherhood.”
