Character Interview: Briana Cole

February 17, 2021 | By | Reply More

The first book in a sexy, smart new series that takes unconventional relationships to a whole new level,The Marriage Pass follows Dr. Dorian Graham, whose wife proposes they both spend a no-consequences, no-questions-asked night with their greatest temptations for their one-year anniversary. Dorian can’t resist, especially because his wife’s younger sister is the-one-who-got away. However, when Dorian’s one sizzling night isn’t enough for him, he is plunged into a desperate situation leaving him left to either win big…or crash and burn. 

Sizzling romance that makes readers question their assumptions about love, lust, and monogamy and page-turning suspense as readers follow this complicated love-triangle. 

The Marriage Pass is a spin-off of Briana’s critically-acclaimed Unconditional Series, and she prides herself on bringing unique plots and a distinct voice to the bookshelves. She coined the term ‘spiceual’ to describe her style of writing; a mix of spicy and sensual romance that stimulates the reader mentally, physically, and emotionally.

Briana’s acting career is just as notable with numerous starring roles, including those on TV One’s Fatal Attraction and The Paradox.

Briana Cole Interviews Reagan

BC: Hi. Thanks so much for agreeing to an interview with me.
Reagan: Yeah, sure. No problem.

BC: Can you start by telling the readers a little about yourself?
Reagan: What do you want to know?

BC: For example, your name where you grew up, kids, what do you do for work? That sort of thing.
Reagan: Do you need my height and weight, too? (Chuckles) I’m Reagan. I grew up in Atlanta, I have one kid, a little boy named TJ. He’s four. And for work… really anything that can make me a little money. (pause) Can I be honest with you for a second?

BC: Yes, of course.
Reagan: I love to do hair. It’s really the only thing I’m good at. I would like to open my own salon one day but shi– my bad. Can I cuss?

BC: Let’s try to keep it PG for our readers.
Reagan: Well you picked the wrong one. I’m not at all a PG kinda girl. Anyway, if I could open my own salon, I would love that, but stuff doesn’t work out like you want so you just go with the flow, you know what I mean?

BC: Sure, I do. Now you said you grew up in Atlanta. Tell us about your childhood.
Reagan: There really isn’t anything to tell. I have two parents and an older sister. I grew up with them. That’s about it.

BC: Are you and your sister close?
Reagan: (pause) She’s my sister.

BC: Right. And did you and your parents–
Reagan: I’m done with that topic.

BC: Okay. Let’s talk about something else. What about your relationship status?
Reagan: What about it?

BC: Let me rephrase, are you currently in a relationship?
Reagan: (chuckles) I’m currently in a few relationships.

BC: Is there somebody special in your life?
Reagan: Yeah, something like that.

BC: What do you like to do for fun?
Reagan: Travel, shop. I like the finer things in life.

BC: And what about spending time with your family?
Reagan: Here you go with that family shi— stuff again. I guess that was the answer I was supposed to give you right? I like spending time with my family, long walks on the beach, and I want world peace. Is that better for you?

BC: That’s not what I meant. Let’s change topics. Have you ever been in trouble with the law?
Reagan: Now wait a minute you’re getting too damn personal.

BC: I apologize. Just conducting an interview.
Reagan: Well it’s starting to feel more like an interrogation. Are we about done?

BC: Let me ask this instead. Do you have any regrets in life?
Reagan: Not at all.

BC: Not one?
Reagan: Nope. Everything I do, I mean to do.

BC: Thanks again for this interview, Reagan.
Reagan: (smirks) Sure. Hope you got what you needed.

THE MARRIAGE PASS

In a smart, sexy spin-off from her Unconditional Series, Briana Cole continues to explore unconventional relationships and question all assumptions about love, lust, and monogamy in this tantalizing drama that takes the “what if” of a free pass to a whole new level…

Can you really have the best of both worlds?

He’s rich, successful–and has been faithfully married to his longtime girlfriend for nearly one grueling year. Because for Dr. Dorian Graham, too many women is never too much–no matter how loyal his wife, Shantae, has been since their college days. So when she proposes they both celebrate their first anniversary by spending a no-questions-asked, no-consequences night with their greatest temptation, Dorian is shocked, but can’t resist. Especially since Shantae’s wild-card younger sister, Reagan, is gorgeous, uninhibited–and the one who got away…

It turns out one sizzling night with Reagan isn’t enough. Yet the more Dorian takes, the more she demands–and the more he suddenly has to lose. Soon, with his mind games being used against him and his every move checkmated, Dorian will be forced to go all-in on one last desperate play to win. But winning might just be another way to crash and burn…
