“A wild ride.​” Room 553 is available now.

Howdy there,

I’m proud as punch to say that Room 553 is available wherever you get your books.

I won’t promise you’ll fall in love with any of the characters. It’s not that kind of story. But I do promise a wild ride.

What else can I say about this book? Not much. I’ll leave that to the early reviewers.

What early readers are saying:

“Here, you have the perfect characters to make a story that keeps you on your toes. The setting, the characters, the brilliant writing, all of it makes this book the perfect cocktail for murder….it will take everything you thought you knew and throw it out the proverbial window.”

“I, like Max, am a highly educated but very stupid man and I too have made an underestimation. In my reviews of Britney King’s previous two novels, I stated that, first Speak of the Devil and most recently HER were her best books ever. My preconception before reading Room 553 was that while it would no doubt be an excellent book, it would be unrealistic and unfair to expect it to be better. Yet again, Britney King has proved me wrong. Room 553 is her best work yet. She is setting a high standard for whatever book is no doubt already gestating in her fertile and creative mind. Please read this 5+ star psychological thriller. It will be one of, if not the, best book that you read this year.”

“Let’s just get this over with, Britney’s mind and stories are second to none! Where she comes up with these stories is beyond my comprehension because holy cow…she never ceases to amaze me and her stories are always original and fresh. This one is no exception. She kept me guessing until the very end and kept me turning those pages of an incredibly twisted tale as I had to know what was going to happen next and how this story was going to play out.”

“WOW WOW WOW WOW WOW, another outstanding book, loved it from page one till the end— that was the only bad bit that there were no more pages to read. Did I mention I really loved Room 553? Not sure if I have mentioned before. Sorry if I have, but I suffer from chronic head pain, (can you hear the violins just turn the volume down). Anyway, reading is hard. But I love it— so when I find a writer like King who makes it easier to look past the pain— it is just an amazing and wonderful experience. I guess that may be what Lauren and Max experience— joy beyond the pain, despite the motive.”

“I did not see it playing out as it did. The twists and turns and revelations and truths that come to light literally made me stop reading and go “oh my god” and “are you kidding me” and “no freaking way.”

“Initially, the story seems simple and straight-forward and the reader thinks that she/he has it figured out. Then the pace quickens and new and totally unexpected revelations make the reader’s head spin. I can assure you that I didn’t see several of the coming’s that lay ahead for you! Britney King’s storytelling, pacing and her lesson to the reader is analogous to the way that Laurel describes Max’s lovemaking following their first time together. “You don’t get to be in charge here” – he told me as he entered me – slowly at first, and then not slowly at all.” This brilliant story also moves slowly at first, and then not slowly at all. And, Britney King is totally in charge. Like a skilled puppet-mistress, Ms. King knows how to pull your strings!”
