About this author

As a bisexual woman, J. P. Barnaby is a proud member of the GLBT community both online and in her small town on the outskirts of Chicago. A member of Mensa, she is often described as brilliant but troubled, sweet but introverted and talented but deviant. She spends her days writing software and her nights writing erotica which is, of course, far more interesting. The spare time that she carves out between her career and her novels is spent reading about the concept of love, which, like some of her characters, she has never quite figured out for herself.


Shae and I had the opportunity to meet Travis Irons when he came to our book signing last month in Atlanta. Not only is he gorgeous, but sweet and fun-loving. We had a great time, so when Shae asked to post an interview with Travis with me, I whole-heartedly agreed.


Please welcome Shae Connor and Travis Irons

A House of Cards Deconstructing Ethan - Excerpt (Gay & Lesbian)
1 chapters   —   updated Jun 29, 2010 08:43pm
Description: Excerpt Description: Ethan decides to sub for Jayden in an attempt to ground himself. With the emotional turmoil he's working through, he doesn't trust himself to Dom without losing control. The excerpt is a session that Jayden is conducting with Ethan and Connor. Book Description: "I crushed him to me and was hit with a feeling so incredibly strong that, for a moment, I couldn't breathe. There were aspects of it that I recognized easily - attraction, lust, but there were subtler aspects as well and they weren't as readily identifiable - companionship, longing and comfort. The only way I could describe that undercurrent of emotion, strangely, was ... home." - Master Ethan Bryant Ethan Bryant's world has been turned upside down by the loss of his submissives. Alone and desperate, his life spins dangerously out of control. Will a return to Chicago give him the closure he so desperately seeks? What happens when a childhood friend comes back into Ethan's life, vying for his love. Will Ethan find what he is looking for, or will Jayden's jealousy tear them all apart and make everything come crashing down?
