Some stories aren’t easy to tell. Some situations aren’t easy to relive. But I was raised to be strong—to hold my own. Because of it, I was hurt, torn down, beaten and even had my heart snatched right out of my chest. But I’m ready now. It’s time for me to speak up. You want to know what really goes on inside my head, well I’m right here. Real. Raw. Intense. This is all me. Roy Sykes. This is my story, and trust me… its far from pretty.





(INSERT BUY LINKS HERE) (Kelsey's POV)A smile smothers my lips as I spot Roy standing in front of some fancy restaurant. He’s dressed in all black (as usual), but his hair is wavy, proving he most likely took a shower before reaching his destination. He’s looking around, and there are moments when he checks his phone. My smile continues as I start to walk toward him, but in no time, my smile evaporates. A girl rushes up to him, and I stop in my tracks, staring like a deer stuck in headlights. I’m… confused. The girl stands on her toes and wraps her arms around his neck, and somehow, a part of me shrivels away. I swallow to block the dryness in my throat. I can feel my bottom lip trembling… my palms getting sweaty. I don’t even realize I’ve dropped the bag in my hand or the cup holder containing the coffee until I’m storming towards him. My eyebrows are furrowed, fists clenched tight around my keys. The sharp metal of my keys is digging into my hand, but I don’t even realize it. I can’t seem to focus on anything but my boyfriend walking into some restaurant with this blonde beauty. [image error] Roy Kelsey [image error]




Review – Who I Am by S.Q Williams
I was so excited to read this book that I absolutely devoured it in a single day! We’re introduced to our FireNine boys – Gage, Roy, Deeds and Montana – in Who He Is, and Who We Are, and it’s where we meet Roy. He’s quiet, and lays low for the most part, but something about his demeanor makes you curious.
Who I Am is Roy’s story, and good Lord what a story! It’s intense, heart-breaking, and so amazing that I was left with both a hangover, and a major crush on Roy Sykes. My heart bled for everything this poor guy has had to go through and everything he was forced to do to not only take care of his sick mom, but himself too.
He’s such a complex character, and by the end of the book you’ll be rooting for him so hard.  I also connected with Kelsey Prior, Roy’s current love interest, and found myself rooting for their relationship because I was invested in Roy that I wanted him to find his happy ending the way Gage Grendel did.
Shanora did an amazing job with this book, and has such a talent when it comes to writing stories filled with angst, emotion and sexiness. This story didn’t disappoint, and it only makes me more excited to see what Shanora has in store for Montana! J
