“She believed she could, so she did.”My name is Amy Andrews, and those are the words I live by. I write happy-ever-after romance novels and after writing ten romance novels, you’d think I’d know a thing or two about love. But I’ve been chasing my own happy-ever-after for a long time. I seem to have no problem starting my own fairytale, but the ending never comes. My love life isn’t the … best-seller that I’ve written, so I decided to change things up and write a dark romance.
While finding my way around and reading books in that genre, I discovered something unexpected. I found a sexy, romantic man who happens to have a soft spot for romances. He’s an alpha male and that type would never have appealed to me before…but it’s amazing what you see when you look between the lines.

WOW!!! Nothing I can say will do this book the justice it deserves.
What can I say that will convince you, the reader that this is a book that you MUST read? First of all, I can tell you that it is yet, another one of, Drew Sera’s amazing creations. It is a bit of a change for her, as it is not, her typical “Dark Erotic” romance.
Amy, the heroine is a romance writer. She writes feel good love stories with no cheating and HEAs. She wants to delve into the dark romance genre but, doesn’t know where to begin. Samantha, her trusty PA, has scheduled Amy for some author events that include many of the authors that write dark romances. Samantha also introduces her to the social media platform Kinky Links. It’s a platform for people that are into the BDSM lifestyle, where they can communicate with one another. After a lot of pushing from Sam, Amy sets up her own user id. On the site she finds local dungeons and clubs where she starts looking at their group pages. She finally locates one that she feels comfortable enough to start asking questions for her new book. There she meets JP!
J.P. is a Dom/Master at a local dungeon. He is very interested in helping Amy any way he can. Over the course of several months he and Amy become fast friends. J.P. helps Amy with her new book, as well as, beginning to have feelings for her. Amy too, starts falling for J.P., a man she has yet to meet. J.P. reaches Amy that there is nothing wrong with her and her need to be dominated.
Between The Lines is filled with Drew’s signature twists and turns. While, J.P. and Amy carry on their relationship via phone, there is definitely some great “phone sex” happening.
BRILLIANT MOVE… WELL (written) and PLAYED!! GENUIS!!
Between The Lines is a beautiful tale of love, with a plentiful supply of kinky fun and play set within the confines of the awe inspiring, often times hectic, chaotic book world and mind boggling social media presence we call FaceBook – I believe we all can relate. It’s an all consuming world to navigate and find your way! It was good to read and understand what we see, what we experience and just how demanding the life of an author and her PA (personal assistant) really is. Its consuming and time demanding with its highs and it’s lows.
It’s also a story, where people come into our lives unexpectedly. They will challenge you, will nurture you, will watch you and see how you grow all behind the confines of a screen or message. It can be intimidating, exciting and nerve wracking – you need to be savvy and cautious. BETWEEN THE LINES is the unfolding of JP and Amy’s story. It’s the story that needed to be told, to evolve and to understand why we are who we are, how we got here, what we hold close and what can break us. It’s their story to experience!
This author is such a breath of fresh air and a master story teller. For those familiar with Drew Sera’s – The Everett Games and Club Irons series… this book will blow your mind, leave you gasping in shock and give you more thoughts to ponder. If you love to delve into the minds of your characters and understand their motivations better… you will need to travel back and read the entire book series.
For those starting their journey… go back and start from the very beginning with The Everett Games… then Club Irons. It is an epic journey of unimaginable tragedies, overwhelming emotions, personal triumphs and always a story steeped in love and respect.
For Between The Lines – as a stand alone book to just read – you have a beautiful love and respect in the making. For an author to give you two entirely differing perspectives for the same book and her characters, depending on where your journey started , nothing short of phenomenal. It’s a HIGHLY RECOMMENDED. page-turning, kinky, sexy fun and emotional read!! You are so going to want more from JP – I know I want to understand him.
I liken Drew Sera to George Lucas and his Star Wars saga… Order is found in chaos.
My recommended order, though not in correct time sequence, just like Star Wars – it’s best read in the following order. I think with the depths of what these characters experience, the darkness and emotional turmoil and how they are shaped – you need to experience this journey this way:
The Everett Games – Bk 1 – 6
Club Irons – Bk 1 – 3
Between The Lines – though this can be a stand alone also
Between the lines by Drew Sera
big stars!
I loved everything about this book! From start to finish, I was hooked! Amy is a romance author looking to write dark romance. She spent time researching the genre. Then she meets JP. An alpha that she never thought she would have an interest in. I love how there relationship develops.
You can’t forget Samantha!! Amy’s quirky assistant. She also brings life to the story. I love giving reviews, but I never like to give much away. This is a must read by talented Drew Sera! Go now and get your copy!!!!!
It’s always a joy to read one of Drew Sera’s books. The start of this book seemed a little different but I was soon so into all the phone texts and late night phone calls.
I’m still not sure how she could change my not so loving feelings for a character to absolutely love him. (Wish I could write more)
Ok, this story is about Amy, an author, who is curious of bonding and maybe some other stuff in the BDSM world. Her husband told her she was a freak and left her, when she asked if they could try a little. His loss! And then….
I voluntarily reviewed an Advance Reader Copy of this book.
Oh my lord is what I was thinking at the end of this read. Now I know why it was hard for others to write their review without giving away anything. Whether your familiar with Drew Sera’s work or not you need this newest romance release in your life, it will keep you entertained from the start to the epic ending. You can’t help but fall in love with Amy “Princess” and J.P. “Romantic Sadist” character as you follow their journey and watch as their relationship grows. This just had it all romance, suspense, BSDM and sizzling scenes. But the ending is where it will get you and leave you wanting more of this authors flawless writing.
I absolutely loved this book and I couldn’t put it down until I was finished reading it. I loved Amy and J.P. and I wanted more of them. Fantastic job writing this story.
I LOVE this book! Amy is an author. JP is a stranger she met. This book has some very HOT sex scenes. I love the characters in this story, they were very relatable. I couldn’t put it down. When I had to I couldn’t get it off my mind, I wanted to get back to it as soon as possible. That ending though. I never saw that coming! SO GOOD! I hope we get more of these characters soon! I received an advanced reader copy for an honest review.
ARC Received in exchange of an Honest Review :
OMG ! If i could give a seven stars i would . This book make me feel so connected and immerse like no other book . I simply love the play out story of Amy and JP . Felt in LOVE of the deep connection , how they built up their atypical Love story bu must of all the fact that a BDSM beginner or curious person can easily relate with book. The End of the book left me crazy , having read the Club Irons series this book really clears out the deal with Paul and his secret muse ..This Book is highly recommended.
Wow. I just mean WOW. I was not expecting this story. I loved the characters J.P. and Amy and Samantha. Such amazing chemistry. Amy being so sweet and Samantha being so caring but yet such a firecracker was just so great. J.P. Being such an alpha and so protective of Amy was so awesome. The end blew me away absolutely did not expect it. Really a great story.
Another fantastic read by Drew Sera! Just like all of her others, she has done an outstanding job with Between the Lines!!
I loved everything about this book – the characters, the story line, and the writing.
Amy is a sweet and somewhat innocent indie author who has been hurt in the past that makes her hide a side of her from others. Sam is Amy’s PA and best friend, a ball of energy that keeps Amy in line with her writing career and pushes her to test waters she is been scared to tread because of her past. J.P. is a sadistic Dom that Amy meets online when looking for someone to help answer questions.
J.P and Amy continue talking and build a friendship that takes a turn in a direction Amy isn’t sure she’s ready for.
Will Amy take a chance at what she’s always been intrigued by, or will she run for the hills. Is J.P. really this sweet romantic that Amy has come to know in months of phone, text, and email conversations?
Read Between the lines today, you’ll love it!!
I recommend this to all romance and dark romance lovers!
Oh My Gosh!!!! Why have I not read a book by this author sooner??? This book was incredibly written and I just fell in love with Amy and J.P and their story. I was pretty certain at times my kindle was going to catch fire with how scorching HOT some of the scenes in the book were. I can’t wait to read more books by this author. I voluntarily reviewed an advance reader copy of this book.
Excellent book by this amazing author. Drew you did it again. I’m excited for the next book coming out
I love Amy and JP from the beginning. Their story, how they connected and how their relationship developed. But the ending…. Omg WOW… I didn’t see this coming at all. I have only read 1 full book of Drew Sera and part of another one and this just caught me by surprised….
Time to catch up… thanks for the beautiful book and twist.
Drew Sera has to be one of the best Romance/Kinky Author to date; only she can write a story like no one else. Her readers become invested with her characters and she always leaves you wanting more. This book will keep you enthralled from page one. The story of a Romance Writer who tries her hand by writing a BDSM book and the day to day tasks she and her PA do to promote her books and her fan base. She finds a mentor and friend in JP who is guiding her into the BDSM world as she is writing her new book they both find that they are becoming more than friends and are starting to fall in love as JP takes Amy on her Submissive journey as only a Dom can do. The ending will blow you away have you screaming, yelling, asking questions as we find ourselves drawn to Irons and find out that JP who Drew makes you like only to find out he is really PAUL!!!, and his muse that he is obsessed with is Anthony Graves. OMG!!!!! Now the reader is left fearing for Amy and asking what comes next. This book is a must read. Drew Sera has a way to draw her readers in as only she can. Bravo Drew, well done!!!
OMG! What did I just read? This book is a real page turner and will grip you from the very beginning with the very well laid out plot and characters that are so well detailed that you feel like you are sitting in a room with them as the story unfolds. I was so engaged with Amy, JP and even Stephanie as their story started to take shape from the very first page to the very last page, and let’s talk about that ENDING!!!! This book is an absolute must read!!!
Drew Sera leaves the beautifully crafted world of Everett Gaming Systems and Club Irons to bring us the story of Amy, a romance author who decides she wants to delve into the dark side of the romance world. She finds an online mentor turned friend in J.P. Their journey together changes them both as the bond between them grows. This is a must read for Sera fans and a wonderful way for new readers to get to know her.
This story was amazing!! Once I started I couldn’t stop! It’s the kinda story that makes you stay up all night instead of going to bed like your supposed too but it was so worth it! This is the story of Amy and JP it’s a slow burn type story that builds over the book and it’s so amazingly done! Amy is an author who decides she wants to spice up get writing style by changing things up a little and into light BDSM but doesn’t know exactly what is real and what is what people think. She wants the actual facts and finds the perfect source for her book JP, he’s more than happy to help her to understand BDSM for her book and in general.
Another thing is that Amy’s best friend Samantha was awesome and funny and took great care of Amy as any bestie should!
However one thing I’ll never forget about in the story or look at the same again is ginger root but you’ll have to read the story to see why!
I don’t want tosay more I don’t wish to spoil it for anyone
so I’ll only say that I completely devoured this story and I can’tto readmore!!Drew Seragave us masterful piece of artwork!! I would definitely recommend this to anyone looking for something amazing to read!
I know I won’t be able to not spoil anything for you. This book took me by surprise and held me captivated until the end J.P. and Amy are amazing characters. If I can figure out a way not to spoil too much I’ll update this more later. Fantastic writing Drew Sera!!! 10 stars!!!!!
