Juliet Braddock Wins Second
National Indie Excellence Award
for Best Erotica
Novel Inspired by the Author’s Journey
with Vision Loss
Bestselling author Juliet Braddock was awarded the top prize for Erotica with BLINDSIDED in the 2020 National Indie Excellence® Book Awards. This is Juliet’s second NIEA win in a row.
A chilling turn of fate sweeps rival journalists Josie Rossi and Oliver Billington into a fury of angst and lust in BLINDSIDED. Josie returns to Oliver’s life, forcing him to unveil the emotions he’d harbored since their break-up a decade earlier. But tragedy threatens to destroy every last shred of hope they shared. As their lives converge once again, Josie and Oliver must ultimately decide if trust can salvage the remnants of their love.
Juliet credits her inspiration for the book to her own experience with sight loss. In 2017, she was diagnosed as legally blind due to a rare neurological condition that damaged her optic nerves. However, she refused to give up on spinning sexy stories of sassy submissives and the often wounded Alpha males who love them.
“When I lost sight, I didn’t want my life as I knew it to stop just because I had to do things differently. I sought out vision rehabilitation, and I found all the necessary tools to allow me to enjoy every moment as I had before my diagnosis,” Braddock says. “I wanted to raise awareness of my disease, but I also wanted to give hope to anyone who’s faced a life-changing curve in the road. Naturally, the writer in me started thinking…and BLINDSIDED was born.
In 2019, Braddock also won the NIEA and the Sponsor’s Prize for her romantic comedy SMITTEN, which is a spicy romp through Paris and Provence.
January Gallimore has arrived at a crossroad in life. Aside from a short-lived scandal that made her the darling of the BDSM lifestyle, she’s America’s Sweetheart, of sorts. She built a career starring in romantic comedies, but she can’t seem to figure out her own love life. Will she choose the older Frenchman who makes her body sizzle…or the younger Englishman whose charms leave her SMITTEN?
To celebrate, BLINDSIDED and SMITTEN will be available on sale for $.99 US for a limited time only at both Amazon and Smashwords.
