Excerpt:
That does it for me.
The idea that someone is hurting her causes a rage I’ve only ever felt once before in my life to flow through my entire body. I clench my fists and decide now is the moment I confront her. Is there another asshole bothering her now? Did her douchebag ex make an appearance? I will fucking end whoever did this to her. I know without asking that Jake would have my back on that move. I’d be willing to bet money Ron would as well. It takes every ounce of strength I have, but I wait until the night is a little closer to being over before snatching her arm and pulling her through the doorway into the dark kitchen. I spin her around to the wall beside the doorway, leaning down so we’re face to face, eye to eye.
“You’re gonna tell me what the fuck is going on, and you’re gonna tell me right the fuck now. Is someone hurting you? Why are your knuckles all bruised? You been fighting?” I fire off everything at once, realizing I sound like a nagging girlfriend, but I need to know she’s okay. I NEED to get this off my chest.
Bree sighs deeply, her warm breath fanning across my neck, making me aware of our proximity. I have her pinned to the wall, my left hand is still gripping her shoulder, and my right hand is on the wall above her head. I’m being a bastard, and using my size to cage her in. I watch her closely for signs of fear, but she almost looks bored, and mostly just annoyed. I know she can still refuse to answer, but I’ll be damned if she gets away from me until I have my say.
She raises her eyes to give me an angry glare and I feel my dick twitch. Seeing fire in her eyes as opposed to the sadness they always carry makes her ten times hotter. Fuck, I’m an asshole. Something is seriously wrong with her, and I’m standing here getting turned on.
“I’ve just had a lot on my mind. I’ve been…training. You know exercising and punching a bag. That’s why my knuckles are bruised.” She raises an eyebrow at me, daring me to question her more. I smirk down at her…she has no idea who she’s messing with.
“You need to wear gloves then. You’re going to ruin your beautiful hands. You’re not actually sparring are you? ”I ask, my voice deeper than I intended. I’ve never been this close to her before, and my dick is currently trying to punch its way out of my zipper to reach her.
She glances down, and I have a moment of horror when I realize there is no way she’s going to miss my erection. I’m a healthy boy, and my jeans were already on the tight side. Her breath hitches, and she jerks her eyes back up to meet mine.
When I see the heat in her eyes, I swear I almost come in my pants like a teenager. Bree is fucking turned on by me. I can work with this. Letting go of her shoulder, I put my hand on the wall, completely closing her in, and lower my head towards hers.
“I don’t fool around with Ron’s guys,” she says softly, making no move to avoid my quickly approaching lips.
“Good thing I’m not one then,” I say, my mouth forming a smirk. I’m now so close to her lips I can feel their warmth on my own.
“YO BREE, where ya at?” I hear Jake yell from outside the door. His voice is like a splash of cold water, causing me to jerk back, and the moment is gone.
“My brother is an asshole,” I grumble, lowering my hands to adjust my erection, and backing further away from her.
“Your brother just stopped me from making a stupid mistake,” she says, before walking out of the door.

Elaine's Review:
OMG, loved this book!!! This is S Ferguson's debut novel it is awesome. Her writing flows as she brings her characters to life. You cry, laugh and you want to throw your kindle at the same time. You also wonder why people can be so cruel.. I must say that I fell in love with Bree and Declan what a couple. When this book is released it is a must read!!!!
Can't wait to read the next book. Thank you S Ferguson for such a wonderful book.
Tami"s Review:
I will admit that I did NOT read the blurb before reading Something There In Between, I wanted to be surprised at EVERY turn, and oh my was I ever. S. Ferguson completely blew me away and had me in tears READING THE PROLOGUE!!!!!
Every chapter I read my brain kept running wild with the possibilities of "what the hecks" I fell in love with all of the characters and they were immensely developed that I felt like I was a part of their "family" And there was a few times that I wanted to be in the same room with these characters and yell at them. The characters also don't listen to them when you tell what you think is going to happen hmmmmm. I think they should come out with interactive books so I could have gotten my hands on some of the not so savory characters we are introduced to.
The LOVE story that takes place throughout this story is COMPLETE FATE intervening, ( you will know what I mean when you read it)
Declan and Bree are more alike than either one of them even realizes. They may not heal each other but learn how to heal themselves through one another!!!!! I can not wait to see what is next for this gang!!! LOVE IT!!!
