ย
For Max and Laurel, nothing is off limits when they meet in room 553. Their illicit affair is exhilarating, passionateโand dangerous.ย
ย
Driven as much by compulsion as pleasure, Max can’t stop. His mistress is Jesus on the streets, and Satan in the sack. But when things take a sharp and sudden turn for the worse, he finds himself ensnared in a trap of his own making.ย
ย
Under heavy scrutiny by the police and the media, Max is hailed as a cold and evasive womanizer. He made mistakes, to be sure. But does that make him a killer?
ย
Unnerving and addictive, Room 553 is a vivid and sensual psychological thriller that weaves a story of cruelty, reckless desire, and blind, bloody justice.
My Rating:
Favorite Quotes:
There are a lot of things a woman permits a man to be. Indifferent is not one of them.
ย
The read I get on Dr. Jones is that sheโs the type who has ten cats and piles of clutter spread among the excess of belongings she refuses to get rid of.
ย
My words tasted bitter and foreign, like they were coming from someone elseโs mouth, someone I didnโt yet know.
ย
My heart leaped so high into my throat that I could have easily opened my mouth and touched it.

My Review:
There is no doubt; Britney King is an evil genius. Iโll just keep my fingers crossed that she limits her substantial talents and devious powers to continue to delight and entertain rather than hiring out for actual crime. The cunning characters in Room 553 were markedly vile yet fatally alluring and intriguing, but as brilliantly devised as they were, it was her unique and clever writing style that ultimately wins the purple championship ribbon. Her well-crafted storylines were magnetic and unflinchingly compelling and quickly lured me into a consuming vortex that had me simultaneously smirking and cringing. I greatly admire her mad skills and covet all her clever arrangements of words. I fear I am irrevocably addicted and have unwittingly consumed her Kool-aid.
.
Britney King lives in Austin, Texas with her husband, children, two dogs, one ridiculous cat,ย andย a partridge in a pear tree.
When she’s not wrangling the things mentioned above, she writes psychological, domestic and romantic thrillers set in suburbia.
ย
Currently, she’s writing three series and several standalone novels.
ย
The Bedrock Series features an unlikely heroine who should have known better. Turns out, she didnโt. Thus she finds herself tangled in a messy, dangerous, forbidden love story and face-to-face with a madman hell-bent on revenge. The series has been compared to Fatal Attraction, Single White Female, and Basic Instinct.
ย
The Water Series follows the shady love story of an unconventional married coupleโheโs an assassinโshe kills for fun. It has been compared to a crazier book version of Mr. and Mrs. Smith. Also, Dexter.
ย
Around The Bend is a heart-pounding standalone, which traces the journey of a well-to-do suburban housewife, and her life as it unravels, thanks to the secrets she keeps. If she were the only one with things she wanted to keep hidden, then maybe it wouldnโt have turned out so bad. But she wasnโt.
The With You Series at its core is a deep love story about unlikely friends who travel the world; trying to find themselves, together and apart. Packed with drama and adventure along with a heavy dose of suspense, it has been compared to The Secret Life of Walter Mitty and Love, Rosie.
The Social Affair is an intense standalone about a timeless couple who find themselves with a secret admirer they hadnโt bargained for. For fans of the anti-heroine and stories told in unorthodox ways, the novel explores what can happen when privacy is traded for convenience. It is reminiscent of films such as One Hour Photo andย Playย Misty For Me.ย

Without a doubt, connecting with readers is the best part of this gig. You can find Britney online here:ย
