Excerpt
What a selfish bitch I am. A selfish, drunk bitch who was gonna be raped and murdered. I hated wine!
I all but ran down the hall back to the bar seeking the safety in numbers theory that I had running through my head. That’s what was going to save me from the virtual rapist killing, flower sending sociopath. Oh geez Louise, this was not good…
I stood beside them and Marley threw her arm over my shoulder, “Where were you?”
“Sending a text.” I looked down.
“To who? Jake, from State Farm?”
I nodded and swallowed hard. “I want to go back to the room. I made a horrible mistake.”
Haylie turned to me. “What’s got you so spooked?”
I blurted out, rather loudly, “That man who had been messaging me said he saw I was here and that he was going to come. He wants to see me. I mean, I was wrong, so wrong to be polite to someone, but I told him I was married. I used shouty caps and everything. Just please, take me to the room and let me lock myself in. I don’t want to ruin your good time but I don’t want to die either.”
“We won’t walk you up but I know someone who will.” Marley winked.
Author Bio’s:
Author Haylie Harbour:
Haylie contributes the person she is today to the tragic circumstances she faced as a child. She learned at a very young age that life can throw you a curveball at any moment.
Her motto’s are; “No matter how bad your life may be, someone else has it worse,” and “Strength, it’s what gets us through the day.”
When she needed an escape she found it through books. She began reading very young and as she got older her taste in books changed from sweet and innocent to a little more risqué.
If you saw her today you would probably see her with a book in hand (the dirtier the better). She is an avid reader of anything smut. You name it she’s probably read it. In more recent years she has acquired a taste for the darker side. She most enjoys it when an author pushes her limits.
She loves the friends she has bonded with through reading and loves lending a helping hand to those in need.

Author Victoria Andrews:
Victoria is a happily married mother of two. Nothing brings her greater joy than spending time with her family. Hearing her children laugh is music to her ears. She loves to put on country music and dance around the house with the girls while cleaning, cooking and doing everyday tasks that may seem boring, and mundane to others.
She is often found outside by the pool reading while her girls swim. Talking to Haylie and Marley on the phone and online or attending their bi- monthly "book club"meeting is her adult time. She says, "I don't know what I'd do without them." Grinding In Greenville is the first book these three women have written together, giving y'all a look into what goes on in Tori's seemingly boring life when she winds up with these two crazy women she lovingly call my best friends.
Author Marley Roberts:
Marley Roberts is a free spirited, book junky who loves the male form. The harder the better.
Born and raised on a farm in Woodstock NY with her father(s), mother, sister, extended family of vagabond, pot smoking, hippy, peace lovers, Marley ran as fast as she could seeking normal at-- COLLEGE??????
What she found was a respite from being judged by small minded asshats, hot ass boys who knew nothing of her past, and two of the best friends a girl could ask for.
Today she spends her day in her penthouse apartment she shares with Haylie. That also serves as Boyfriend Bookstand HEADquarters * wink * reading, hanging out online, and finding new toys (plastic and those of attached to hot, delicious males) to play with and share with her present and future author friends.
Confused? You wont be.

Review
*** I Love Story Time was gifted an ARC in exchange for an honest review ***
4 Stars!
Marley, Hailey and Tori are 3 close friends that met each other through their love of books. Between the 3 of them they considered themselves a book club. They would read the same books together and meet up to talk about them. Then they decide to start a "Book Blog" on FB so that they can post pictures of sexy ass guys with out their husbands, friends or family seeing them and getting offended. I loved that I was able to relate to certain aspects of the story. So much of this book reminded me of us girls from I Love Story Time!! I loved that this book talks about book signings and the models that are there. Being to a few personally, I was able to picture all the scenes from the book at these types of events.
I could not stop laughing through out this book! I loved it! I loved all the characters, but my favorite was Marley. That girl was hilarious. I think my favorite part with her was how she gave guys different names from different books! I seriously almost wish I was single so I can do that. She was just pure, raw, and straight to the point; holding nothing back. She told it like it was and took it just as hard. Some of the things that came out of her mouth were priceless. I can't wait to read more about her and see who her real life book boyfriend will be! She deserves so much. I am wondering if someone from her past will come back again or if it will be someone new?
Hailey was sweet. I felt bad for her past. Reading about what happened in the past and how she was raised was heartbreaking. Now she is married and owns a bakery and living the life she never thought she would have. But it is not what she thought it was. Then she goes to a book signing and realizes what she has been missing. All I do know is, my favorite scene with her was when she was with David. I seriously could not stop laughing at what she was thinking. I loved that part. I loved it because in all books that I have read, that is never the case. Poor David. LOL... I hope that Hailey gets the fairy tale that she is looking for.
Tori is the most straight and narrow out of the 3 friends. She was raised dotting her "I's" and crossing her "T"s. One night in college she lets loose and her life changes instantly. Now she is married with 2 kids and living the everyday life as a mom. She later finds out something about her husband's past that changes their relationship. Marley and Hailey are there for her to help them work things out. I really did like her husband "Jake- from state farm". I can tell how much he really did love her and willing to give her what she needs. Hope we are able to get more about them in the next book as well!
I really enjoyed this story. It was a great easy, funny and sexy read. I liked the characters and the relationship they had and how open they were with each other. I haven't laughed out loud so much while reading a story in a while so that was nice. I will be looking forward to reading book 2 when it comes out in November to see what comes next for these lovely ladies!
