ABOUT THE BOOK: Release Date March 12, 2024

“Ten thousand dollars.
That pitiful sum changed my entire life.
It bought my entire life.
A measly ten thousand dollars, given to my boyfriend by a monster to taste me.
He took it.
The monster took me.
And I never saw freedom again.”

I’m the illegitimate son of a monster.
My other half-blooded siblings have their own demons…but me?
I truly have the devil inside.
I try to be good.
To do my best to ignore the deep, dark, despicable urges.
But every day it gets harder.
I thought family could help.
I reached out to my infamous half-brother, Q, begging for his secrets to stay tamed.
Instead, he gave me an ultimatum to prove I’m not like our father.
Infiltrate The Jewelry Box: a trafficking ring of poor unfortunate souls, kill the Master Jeweler, free the Jewels, and don’t lose my rotten soul while trying.
Only problem is…my initiation into this exclusive club is earning a Jewel all of my own.
She sparkles like diamonds, bleeds like rubies, and bruises as deep as emeralds.
She’s mine to break.
I can’t refuse.
If I want to prove to my half-brother that I’m not like our sire, I have to sink into urges I’ve always fought, plunge into madness, and lose myself so deeply into sin that the only one who will be breaking is me.

REVIEW:RUBY TEARS is the first instalment in Pepper Winters’ contemporary, adult THE JEWELRY BOX dark, erotic, romance series set in the author’s MONSTERS IN THE DARK world .This is twenty-nine year old, Henri Ward, and Ily’s story line. Henri Ward is the half-brother to Q Mercer (Monsters in the Dark).

NOTE: Due to the nature of the story line premise, there WILL BE triggers for more sensitive readers.

Told from dual first person perspectives (Henri and Ily) RUBY TEARS focuses on Henri Ward’s need to know about the family history, and acceptance by his brother Q. Tasked with infiltrating a trafficking ring known as The Jewelry Box, Henri must first seduce a potential jewel, a woman be trained, to be broken, to be claimed as his own. Enter Ily, the woman whom Henri is desperate to save but Henri’s predilections and proclivities are dangerous and dark, and Henri is about to discover just how far down he is willing to dig to bring the monster out to play.

RUBY TEARS introduces the players, the Masters, the slaves and the cruelty of men who are willing to do anything to appease their sexual appetites. Pepper Winters pulls the reader into the darkness, the depravity of the twisted mind, as she slowly reveals the who, how and why of The Jewelry Box, and the captured souls known as ‘the jewels’. The premise is dark, dramatic and intense; the characters are desperate and broken. RUBY TEARS ends on a cliff hanger-you have been warned.

Take heed of the triggers warnings-they are dark and numerous.

NOTE: There is a FREE prequel novella THE MERCER CURSE introduces Q’s half brother Henri Ward (see below)
