Hobble

by Neale Sourna

On sabbatical, BENNET GILLESPIE, brilliant, burned out, Native American surgeon, literally, falls for an irresistible African American beauty-the homicidally "insane", and...mysteriously lamed, child-woman DAY-and begins an obsessively erotic tug-of-war for her versus MR. HOPKINS, her possessively overbearing, English guardian. Day's young body and "delicate" mind become a battleground of sexual and emotional blackmail and immoral..."obligations". Yet, once the older Hopkins knows amoral Benn can completely rule the dangerously unpredictable, blade-wielding Day and force her to submit to Hopkins against her will-two souls and a life can and will be lost...when Benn selfishly complies.

About the author

Neale has been authoring, editing, doing book/ebook layout and publishing about a decade and won BlackRefer.com's Best Erotica Novel award for her first novel, "Hobble," published through her own company, PIE: Perception Is Everything, and Neale successfully ranked as a finalist for New Century Screenplay's national contest for her script, "FRAMES."

Neale's many published works, for ebook, print and online, have an edge that always brings the reader back to the core of being human.

"I don't write 'romance' stories, but character love stories, like the short story fiction published at:

Writing with romance of the heart and of adventure, in its many, many human varieties, as seen through the eyes and hearts and bodies of realist characters; whether about military special forces regiments, mail order brides in the outback, class-crossed samurai lovers, wealthy Victorian 'minorities,' or luscious vampires of another color."

All of which are still in the works, but coming your way!

Oddly, Neale has also has had a few stories of the North Coast Academies' Series banned by Amazon Kindle although they had distributed them previously at Amazon Mobipocket!

Neale's based in Cleveland, Ohio, USA (Garfield Heights more specifically) and is a graduate of John F. Kennedy H.S., a former (and again) student of Cuyahoga Community College (Digital Cinema & Editing, Game Building), a graduate of Lake Erie College, and also attended grad Film/Video studies at American University, an undergrad-intern semester at Mount Vernon College for the National Endowment for the Arts Opera-Musical Theatre department, and an academic term abroad in Vienna, Austria.

Neale has several novels, novellas, and short stories in the works; some of which can be read in extended novel and script excerpts at www.Neale-Sourna.com or www.PIE-Percept.com or the full short story/novella/novel ebooks and trade paperbacks can be bought online and ordered at brick and mortar stores's connection through the wonderful Lightning Source brand at Ingram's (wholesale).

A fun fact. Neale shares a birthday with these sensual and sensational authors the Marquis deSade of France and Thomas Hardy of England, which says a thing or two about Neale's take on dramatic writing.

Reviews

[Roy Mcconnell · Rating 4 out of 5]

I will start by saying that, outside of Penthouse, I have never read an Erotica book. Sourna's characters were very well developed. The intense beginning drew me in immediately. I thought Sourna was very creative with all of the sex scenes. She continually found new ways to rivet me to Bennet and Day's developing and explosive relationship.

However, sometimes I felt the language used to describe sexual organs a little over the top. I also thought that it dragged a bit in the middle. But in the end it was well worth the wait.

[Neale Sourna · Rating 5 out of 5]

Yeah. It's a reread of my own book; but, if you don't like your own stuff enough to curl up with it for a few hours, then why expect anyone else too. I enjoy my stories. I like to read them. I am certain that is a very good sign.
