Beatrice Avery
Author
Beatrice Avery writes contemporary spicy romance and dark fantasy about longing, temptation, and the sort of moments when perfectly reasonable people do very unreasonable things.Her stories tend to involve complicated feelings, questionable judgment, and characters who absolutely should know better. Every once in a while they might make you laugh. Or take a cold shower. You know. Because of all the spice.When she isn’t writing, she’s usually reading something scandalous and pretending it’s research, or quietly encouraging fictional characters to make very poor decisions.Her friends call her Betty.
You can too, if you like.She’d be perfectly alright with that.You can find more of her stories, comics, and occasional mischief at:instagram.com/beatrice.avery.author
Or you can email her at:[email protected]She likes to hear from her people. If you aren't her people, maybe don't email. That might be awkward.

Down A Dark Hallway.That's a good reason too.
Done shrinking. Done waiting. Done being invisible.Three minutes.Not very long for a man to last in bed. An eternity when you're wearing lace and standing in the doorway waiting for your boyfriend to notice you.He never did.That was then. This is the morning after Erin found out exactly why — and she is done shrinking for men who don't deserve the space she takes up.So she laces up her running shoes, like she does every morning, and hits the Tampa Riverwalk.
To burn off some steam? For fresh air? For space and trees and her music blasting in her ears?She couldn’t say.She only knows that she’s pissed.
And that if she doesn’t get some of it out, she’s going to find Matteo and run him over with her car.That’s the cloud Erin is running in this morning.And that's when she sees him.A Man, capital M.The kind that makes you understand what they meant when they invented the word gawp.
The kind that looks at you like he already knows exactly how you taste.
The kind that makes you want him to find out if he’s right.She definitely shouldn't follow him into the woods.
Erin knows this.But knowing and doing are such different things.🔥 Bared Beneath The Trees is a scorching contemporary spicy romance novelette featuring:• A heroine done being invisible
