Iron Rods – the best little fictional strip club in Texas!
from Brenna Zinn
Here’s a little secret about Austin, Texas that one might
not know about unless you’re a lady actually living in or around Austin… Austin does NOT have a strip club for women. Yes.
You read that right. There are
zero, nada, zip, zilch strip clubs for women in Austin, Texas. Sounds crazy, I completely feel you, but it’s
true.
I found this information out the hard way. It was late, I was at a big birthday party
for a girlfriend and we all decided that a trip down to the local strip club
would be an excellent way to wrap up what had already been a pretty fabulous
party. After looking everywhere on-line
for a club, we concluded we were SOL (shoot out of luck). A true downer and quite a shocking
surprise. After all, Austin is a good-sized
city loaded with women. How could it be
that the city would have several clubs for men to see women dancing, but none
available for women?
From this experience, an idea was born. Why not create a fictional strip club for
women based in the heart of Austin – South Congress Avenue? Imagine the fabulous characters who can work
in the club or visit the club, I told myself. Why, there would be enough
characters and situations to write an entire series of stories!
And I was right. There ARE loads of interesting characters
and situations that I’ve invented for a new series, the Strip Club for Women
Series.
Iron Rods, the name of the fictional strip club, is the first
book in the series. In this book the reader learns some of the back story
behind the club, the club’s crazy owner, the owner’s estranged New Yorker son
Bennett Truitt, and the Iron Rods staff.
But that’s not all. Readers also
see how the club changes from a rundown, hole-in-the-wall to a budding renewed
club with the help of the book’s heroine, Tatum Reynolds.
Here’s the blurb:
During
the golden age of Austin, Texas, women came from miles around to mix fantasy
with flesh at Iron Rods strip club. But time moved on, leaving the club in
disrepair and the dancers in sorry shape. Bennett Truitt, estranged son of the
club’s aging and half-crazy owner, wants to replace the local landmark with
shiny new condos against his father’s wishes. His Trojan
horse is feisty Tatum Reynolds, his new hire as manager of the failing
establishment. He’s sure she’s the train wreck he needs to run the business
into its grave, but never underestimate the stubborn determination of a
down-on-her-luck Texas woman.
After another rejection letter, Tatum
stares fate in the eye and realizes she’ll never be a professional dancer on or
off Broadway. Out of options, she accepts Bennett’s job offer to manage the
strip club and is determined to return the run-down Iron Rods to its glory
days, no matter what or who stands in her way – even if it means going toe-to-toe with the boss’ son.
Warning – this book contains graphic
sex, interesting characters, and touches of humor.
The second book in the series, Unmasked Secrets, is
available for pre-order and will be released February 17th. I’m truly excited about the release of this
book, which has BDSM elements. It’s the perfect follow-up to Iron Rods and
dives deeper into the life of a stripper.
There are two Kindle World crossover novellas
that will also be out this year – Trouble in Red Books (part of Sable Hunter’s Hell Yeah! Kindle World,
and Lone
Star SEAL (part of Elle James’
Brotherhood Protector Kindle World). The third full-length book in the
series is Dirty Politics, which will be out in January 2018. Yes! It’s a lot of books, but you’re going to
love them.

Here’s a sexy little taste of the story…
He’d be a fool to
walk Tatum inside and take a stab at the chance to bed her again. There was no
future for them. They both had to know that. Making matters more complicated,
this was her home. If he did sleep with her, what would come next? Most likely
there would be an awkward scene where he thanked her for the marvelous fuck and
left out any discussion about business. Then he would grab his clothes and make
a quick exit.
He couldn’t possibly
stay the night. Doing so would suggest there was more to their relationship
than he wanted her to believe. Definitely more than he was ready for. Yes, she
was incredibly sexy and strangely entertaining. And yes, he felt so much at
ease with her that he’d found himself dreaming up excuses to be around her. But
a line had to be drawn somewhere. He wasn’t the kind of man who involved
himself in relationships. Relationships eventually lead to deep feelings. Deep
feelings, he’d discovered the hard way, lead to heartache.
Hadn’t he already
had enough heartache to last a lifetime?
“Want to come in
for a drink?” she asked. “I don’t have any Scotch, but I have cold beer.”
Tatum had to know
inviting him into her home meant more than just providing him a cool beverage.
Before they finished their first drink, he would have her shirt off and her
jeans unsnapped. After that, he wouldn’t stop until she lay spread-eagle on her
bed, his mouth attached to the little nub of her clit where he would let his
tongue flick until she shouted his name from pleasure.
Was he a wild beast devoid of principals and
decency? No. He might not have been born a gentleman, but he’d certainly been
raised as one. He needed to allow her a way to reconsider her offer. It was the
right thing to do. Plus he needed a moment to think carefully through his
answer. His dick might be ready to accept her most generous overture, but that
little brain had a tendency to get him into trouble more times than not. Look
what a mess it had already landed him in.
“A beer sounds
great, but I don’t want to put you out.”
“You won’t be putting me out at all,” she
said, digging her keys out of her purse. “My roommate is in Houston for a few
days, so it’s just me at the casa.
I’d love to have your company.”
Bennett’s nerve
endings sizzled beneath his skin. The beating of his heart quickened and became
irregular.
Damn it all! He
shouldn’t be considering going in her place. Doing so was wrong, wrong, WRONG!
His fingers tingled
at the prospect of stroking her soft tan skin. A light tang of waterworks
already filled his mouth in anticipation of kissing her lips, sucking her
nipples and licking the sweet folds between her spread legs. If his ramrod-hard
cock throbbed with any more force, the damn thing would tear through his
slacks.
He wanted her more
than any other woman he’d ever had the pleasure of having sex with. What did
Tatum possess that inexplicably drew him to her?
Bennett pulled the
key from the ignition. “Then my company you shall have.”
He would undoubtedly
pile more regrets to his mounting list in the morning, but his body once again
trumped his common sense. Tatum had given him a huge green light to proceed.
How could he resist?
Tatum flipped the
light switch once she opened the door to the townhouse. “Make yourself at home
while I get the beers.” She tossed her purse on a table and then scurried off
to the kitchen. “I’ll only be a second.”
Although the place
smelled slightly of smoke, it was clean and contained matching furniture. Much
better than anything he’d anticipated. The second-hand couch and stained carpet
he’d imagined didn’t exist. He frowned as he took a quick look around, not
happy that his father might be right. Perhaps he did have a tendency to look
down from his high horse and expect the worst of people, especially Texans. He
was proud to be raised in a family of means and have high standards, but he
couldn’t live with being a snob. Mean-spirited bullies who were better than
everyone else were the types of people he’d had to deal with growing up. How
had he let himself become one of them?
Breezing into the
living room with a longneck bottle in each hand, the flyaways from her ponytail
framing her face, Tatum had never looked more beautiful. The simple V-neck
T-shirt and jeans she wore accentuated her womanly curves. Red Western boots
added length to her already long legs.
To hell with the drinks. I want you now.
As she drew close
and handed him a beer, he plucked both bottles from her grasp and set them on
the coffee table.
“What are you—”
Before she could
finish her question, Bennett tugged her to him and covered her mouth with his.
She still tasted of chocolate cupcake. With little effort, he parted her lips
and swept his tongue over and around hers, picking up even more flavor from her
earlier treat. Lord, but he was an absolute fool for chocolate, not to mention
this tantalizing woman.
He wrapped an arm
around her waist and slid the other around her neck, then drew her tightly
against the length of his body. Tatum groaned into his mouth and bright sparks
flashed before his closed eyelids when her hip ground against his stiff cock.
Without the benefit
of sight, he raked his fingers through her pulled-up hair until he located the
ponytail holder. Slowly and carefully, he slipped her long locks free. He
repeated the process of combing her hair through his fingers, reveling in its
softness. When his hand passed through the silky ends, he placed his palm on
the curve of her back and then bunched the cotton fabric of her shirt in his
grasp. A quick yank freed the T-shirt from the confines of her jeans.
Rather than break
their kiss to remove her top, he lowered his hand through the slight gap
between her back and the band of her jeans. His fingers caught on what felt
like a taut string. Following the thin strand, his hand found the narrow cleft
between two round ass cheeks. He stretched his arm and the tip of his middle
finger as far as he could, trying to reach into the depths of the warm crevice,
but met disappointment. He settled for rubbing his palm over one tight globe
and then the other before grabbing a satisfying handful of the tight flesh.
She moaned, filling
his mouth with a titillating low vibration and the delectable taste of sweet
chocolate. His dick immediately responded by leaping behind his boxers.
“Where’s your
room?” he asked in a strained voice, tightening his grasp on her ass. After
their earlier experience on the hard surface of a desk, no way he was going to
fuck her on anything other than a comfortable bed tonight.
Tatum nodded toward
a hallway.
“Take me there.”
