Book Description:
Laura Drake is an author. She writes bestselling paranormal romances that continue to top the charts. She is sharp. She is confident. She is in control.
And she doesn’t exist.
Samantha Jansen is the woman behind the wig, the woman most of the world doesn’t know exists. She is shy. She is insecure. She is nothing like her main character or her alter ego. She is scarred—deeply scarred—by a past she can’t let go of and a present she can’t make peace with.
Samantha’s dreams are consumed by one man, the broken hero from her books. Mason Strait is both her wildest fantasy and her most terrifying nightmare.
When Samantha meets Alec Brand, a corporate consultant, it is as though Mason has come to life. Alec is handsome to a fault, as elegant as he is arrogant, and more intense than any man has a right to be.
Samantha is soon sucked into a world that mirrors the fiction she writes. Just like her main character, Daire Kirby, Samantha finds herself unable to resist the forbidden lure of Alec. And just like Daire, she also finds that she is faced with taking a chance on a man who could either set her free or destroy her.
The scale tilts toward destruction when Samantha finds out that Alec is as much a work of fiction as Mason. And he has scars of his own, scars that could ruin them both.
Check out this yummy Excerpt
“Ohmigod, ohmigod, ohmigod!” she hisses through lips that move very little. “Here he comes!”
I don’t move. Not a single muscle. I just stare into Chris’s wide eyes until a shape appears at my right. Slowly, I turn my head and look up, falling headlong into the most amazing eyes I’ve ever seen in real life. I see them in my head all the time. And I saw them from somewhat of a distance. But no amount of exposure could’ve prepared me for the reality of them up close. They’re like drops of cool lime with a splash of warm cream.
He glances away from me and nods to Chris before his eyes return to mine. He tilts his head slightly to the side as he considers me. Still, he hasn’t said a word. Still, my pulse is racing out of control.
“Can we help you?” Chris says from across the table. I can hear the smile in her voice.
He doesn’t answer for several long seconds.
“I know you.” It’s a statement, not a question.
A voice inside my head, one that I only listen to when I’m writing, cries out emphatically. Yes, yes, yes! You know me inside and out! Just like I know you.
But I shush her. He doesn’t know me. He couldn’t possibly. And I couldn’t possibly know him. Even though he looks and, thus far, acts exactly like the man that arose from the core of my imagination, from my darkest desires and deepest fears, I can’t let myself forget that he’s not Mason Strait.
“No,” I reply.
He falls silent again, his continued perusal making me increasingly breathless. Finally his eyes narrow on me. “I want to.”

This looks awesome! And I’m a HUGE M Leighton fan. Thanks for sharing!! 🙂
Everybody is talking about this one!
I think the book character I would like to meet is Roarke and his equally has stunning wife Eve Dallas.
Great choice!
Awesome giveaway!
I know i just ‘met’ Alec Brand, but I would like to meet him! ;D
Me too:)
I’m not sure who I would like to meet but I would definitely like to read this. Sounds like a steamy read : )
deakster12@gmail.com
Guaranteed to be steamy!
I know the character I’m about to name isn’t from your book, but my favorite romance novel, Princess Bride, I’d die to meet Westley.
Nice choice:)
I would definitely like to meet Kayden from The Coincidence of Callie and Kayden by Jessica Sorensen. Who wouldn’t want to meet a hot football player? 😉
Thanks for the opportunity to win this book! 🙂
Or a hot anything! lol
Sounds awesome; I’d love to win an e-book copy of this! And I’d like to meet Samantha … she sounds multi-layered and totally intriguing!
I agree. I think she’ll be genuine and fun to connect with.

I’d love to meet Eric Sticks. He’s just so yummy. Also, his whole “liking to watch” is quite interesting.
Naughty!! lol
Wow…thanks for an opportunity to win a copy of the book! Who doesn’t love a hot & steamy romance???? Unfortunately, I’m not familiar with any of your characters…YET, but when asked which character I’d like to meet…two come to mind:Eric Northman and Vlad Tepesh. Oooo La La. Sexiness at its best!
Not bad choices:)
I still want Johnny Depp!
[…] Giveaway of M. Leighton’s Steamy New Romance ~ Until I Break! […]
That is a hard one… Either Rachel Morgan from Kim Harrison’s novels or Mercy Thompson from Patricia Briggs novels! Both are extremely tough, stubborn women yet they know how to have a good time. Plus what they do in their spare time, taking down bad guys, seems like a lot of fun in my opinion haha! They also know some pretty goodlooking men which I wouldn’t mind getting to know. 🙂

Yep. A good idea to have tough women covering your back and drawing in the guys!
That is a HOT trailer. From the cover, I wasn’t sure I would be that interested in Until I Break, until I read your post. Thanks. You always open my eyes to new books and authors.
She has a huge following and exciting comments about her books! A must have!
I would want to meet Alec Brand (what better way than reading the book?!). The cocky, verging on arrogant confidence is always a fun read 😛
I agree. Give me a sardonic grin and some witty comeback and I’m hooked
Alec Brand! Absolutely, yes!
Definitely ALEC BRAND!
I love the excerpt and the premise of the book. Really awesome! I would love to read this book and review it.
