Club Twenty-One #1
Phoenix's Purpose
Being the daughter of a drug addict, my start in life was set in stone.
Ending up in foster care at eight years old, I learned things no young girl should.
I learned to survive.
Ten years later, I found myself somewhere I never thought I'd be. Outside a strip club.
Used as a bargaining chip, a deal is made behind my back.
For four days, I was his and his alone.
But now my life is on the line and he's the only one who can save me, but will he?
Did our short time together mean as much to him as it did to me?
Or will I be alone again, just as I've always been?
Brad
My head doesn't turn easily, but when I found myself attracted to a fiery redhead, I knew I'd have to have her.
Even if I had to use blackmail to make sure of it.
Ninety-six hours. That was the deal, but it wasn't enough.
I needed her, craved her as deeply as any impulse.
It turns out we share many similarities, none of which are good.
So I did the only thing I could… I let her go.

Phoenix's Purpose is an outstanding read by KJ Ellis. There's plenty of steam 🔥🔥🔥This is Brad and Phoebe's story. And what a story it is. One you definitely don't want to miss. KJ has a way of drawing you into her stories and captivating you. There are a few twists and turns in this one too. I absolutely loved it.

There is so much to love about this story! It literally kept me entranced from beginning to end! Not to mention that my heart hurt, was broken, and put back together again. So many emotions running through me right now that it’s hard to put into words. Phoenix has had a rough life and upbringing but she never lets it get her down. She is bound and determined to make a better life for herself. It drastically changes the day she meets Brad and finds out that he wants her for himself for a period of time. While Phoenix is hesitant, she knows she must go along with it. Never realizing how much he will change her life. Brad is a take charge kind of guy and when he sees something he likes, he goes after it, like with Phoenix. There is just something about her that he finds intriguing. Can two people from vastly different backgrounds make a go of a relationship? This story takes you on their journey and it’s one that I never wanted to end. This story is brilliantly written and I loved how this author made me fall in love with the characters. And let’s not forget to say, how sizzling hot their chemistry is! Flames were coming off the pages of my Kindle! You definitely need this book in your life!

Kj Ellis brings us something different with this book and takes us to Club21, where all your dreams can come true.
Phoenix/Phoebe hasnt had a great start to life and is struggling day to day when she literally falls to her knees infront of the place that will end up as her safety net.
She could never believe how a chance encounter and an indecent proposal could change her world for good.
Brad turns up to a meeting and to help a friend and can't believe his luck when a hottie falls into his lap and causes more than sparks to start flying.
These guys are fab together, but as always, it's certainly not a plain sailing no bumps in the road story. There's drama, loss, and emotions throughout.
Love the friends involved with this read too.
But i honestly think the star of the book was Dillion for me.

I really enjoyed this book.
Phoenix (Phoebe) never had it easy in her life. Then she met Bianca and started dancing at club 21. Life wasn't perfect, but she managed to stay positive and have a life.
One night she meets Brad at the club and they had off the charts chemistry. Brad may have did a bit backhanded business and managed 96 hours of personal time with Phoenix. One things leads to another and sparks fly!
I don't want to say much more then that and ruin the story...but you won't be disappointed.
Also if you've read KJ's Counterpunch series you'll also remember Saxon 😍

Oh. My!
Oh. My!! What a ride!! I wasn't sure what to expect when I opened this book but I knew it going to be a good one!!
And I was not disappointed!! Phoenix has not had an easy life and when someone holds out a helping hand, she takes. 6 years on and she is where she wants to be. But when her past comes back to haunt her, where will that leave her?
Twists and turns and heart stopping moments galore!
Great read!

Another amazing read, every new story from this author never fails to delight. Loved getting to see some old characters from her Counter punch series.

Chef's kiss on this brilliantly penned story! So many emotions reading this and the storyline had me in it's clutches. Phoenix and Brad were incredible characters as were secondary ones in her best friend, Sapphire, his friend Tanner AND friends from England which I won't say who but if you've read any of her other works, you'll be delighted to see their appearance here. A little angst, a little scary thrills and chills, some hot and steamy chemistry and more abound inside the pages. I can't wait for the next book in the Club21 series.
