About the author
Blue Ashcroft
8 books131 followersI finally have something new coming. Something with a billionaire, three hot guys, a pro gamer...and oh yeah, it's a serial with a cliffhanger at the end of every episode.
Each episode will be more than half the length of one of my typical novels, and should come every 2 to 3 weeks. It helps that two parts are fully written and I'm not releasing number 1 yet.

I'm not giving official release dates. I'm just getting this out as quickly as I can and allowing myself to be flexible, so if you want info on the series, you'll want to be on my newsletter.
Not only because the minute an episode is ready they are the ones who get the first notification, but because I also may do early releases, ARC offers and flash sales for loyal readers.
I just want to have a lot of fun with this series.
I'll also be watching out for potential readers and reviewers I may want to offer an early ARC of the next episode to. You are welcome to write me at blueashcroft(at)gmail.com if you are interested in being an early reader, but I give priority to active reviewers, so your best chance would be attaching or linking to your review so I can see your style.
Now I gotta go pull some teaser excerpts!

Alex is damaged but so cool!
Alex is agoraphobic but so protective of Kira that it is hard for him to let her out of his sight. He is so cool though that he does everything he can to go out in public with her and when he can’t he has to battle his own jealousy and ask his best friend to take her. I am starting too really like him.

I push back and out of his grip. “Stop it. You’re overreacting.” Ethan and our new friend join us apart from the couch. “You’re all overreacting.”
“Maybe,” the newcomer says. “But dude over there is the biggest perv in the room. Be careful how close you stand. That guy’s seen so much porn he thinks it’s real life.”

3.5 Stars for this third part in the serial/series. I've been trying to figure out what's so different about Alex and why he is the way he is and thankfully we finally find out more about him in the last two books. But this one really opened my eyes even further. I will say that I did totally guess wrong as to what was driving him to be the way he is...
As someone who suffers from what he does I'm somewhat confused because the norm for people who are afflicted by "this" (I'm not going to give anything away, no spoilers here) aren't usually able to react as he does. So this confused me, then had me thinking and I have to commend the author because as tough as it is I've been in Alex's position time and time again. I can relate to him when before I couldn't.
As for the other characters I'm loving them and how they are there for both Kira and Alex which makes reading each piece even more of a pleasure.
I'm looking forward to the next installments and will continue to read each as they are released from the author. Can't wait to see what happens next.

Ok, I liked this one MUCH better than the first 2 books.
We learn a lot about Alex and now I want to know more.
As for Kira, it's not that I dislike her, but I still don't get how is she not dealing with the abusive relationship she just finished. It seemed like it was nothing, when in reality it was something very life changing. The guy wanted to take her and maybe even kill her, yet she goes on like nothing ever happened. Maybe that part of the plot should've been deleted? Just make Nate and ass, and not an abuser? IDK.
I feel she should get professional help, or be encouraged to by her friends. Just someone to talk to about what happened and move on to a more healthy relationship.

Claim Me is part 2 of Blue Ashcroft’s A1pha serial series. There is a little “what happens in Vegas…” fun in this episode when the friends show up (winky face). A1pha or Alex is turning out to be this awesome enigma. There is this impending doom feeling I get from him despite the way he has opened himself up for Kira. Kira and Alex have so much chemistry I can’t wait to see where they end up.

Still loving this series, I am enjoying that they are short reads and I am glad that they are coming out at a good pace, so I am not left waiting too long.
I am starting to find that A1pha is getting annoying with his treatment of his friends and Kira, but I guess his seriousness is what the big draw is, but at least his temperament is evened out by the goofiness of his friends.
On to the Next book.

I'm telling you the transition between the master gamer A1pha to the broken man that is Alex make you love him all the more. What he's been through is hard and as Kira and Alex bring to light the real feelings between them it's just a great book. I do feel now though that book one. Would have been delete. We really don't. Need mate because that should play a bigger part than what it does. However I campaign for the last part.

I didn’t really enjoy this book, but the sex scene at the end was hot, so I’m going to give it 3 stars just because of that.
The characters annoyed me, the storyline annoyed me, I got bored, and I
6 out of 10.

Glad to see Alex wake up
Another good episode. Alex begins to explain himself and Kira and Lulu spread their wings . Some things are rather obvious but the interaction between the gang is so well done.

Alex is very complex he has some major issues, but with kira by his side he can cope, I am loving this story more and more, with each new short story, the plot still has me intrigued, looking forward to the next one

Although it was better than the previous two installments I still struggled to enjoy all the gaming terminology. Though I appreciate the author has tried to explain some of the terms.
At least we learn more about A1pha and what makes him tick.

4 stars
Agh!! Every time it gets good it ends! This is such a sweet book. I can't even imagine how amazing it would be if it was longer. I got these free through KU and it's definitely worth the read.
