Pawn of The Phoenix was incredible. It starts where Mind of the Phoenix left off and just jumps, page after page. It never lets you go. Mrs. McLachlan's style has solidified and her writing skill never fails to amaze me. Mind of the Phoenix gave you Pawn of The Phoenix was incredible. It starts where Mind of the Phoenix left off and just jumps, page after page. It never lets you go. Mrs. McLachlan's style has solidified and her writing skill never fails to amaze me. Mind of the Phoenix gave you a peak into the rising hate of empaths for their masters and a taste of the fear the Normals have for those who can read their minds. Pawn builds on that perfect foundation and then pulls you along by dropping clue after clue regarding the face of the Phoenix. The tension continues to build and never lets go. Who knows where it will end except the maker, the author herself. The central premise of the book is a mystery. I couldn't say that in my first review because it would be a spoiler but, if you are reading this, you already know and can't get enough. The relationship between Keenan and Moira now thickens until it drips from your tongue. They are both broken individuals but their defects arise from different backgrounds and create an inescapable attraction neither can resist. However, their differences also make it impossible for them to understand each other. Hence the central conflict between themselves and "the other". You now know Moira pretty well but Keenan has remained a mystery. Mrs. McLachlan finally lets you see into his clockwork mind and, you guessed right, it's a mess. Why did I like this book so much (other than the wonderful writing)? Because it's different. It's unique and surprised me page after page. Everyone is suspect. Everyone has to choose a side and some have no idea they've already chosen. The mystery is the story. The story is the mystery but, it's not a who dunnit. It's a what the hell is going to happen next. Similarly, the romance is not planned and plotted, it's an inevitable clash of two wonderful characters who are so intriguing to each other they can't stay apart. One searches for something lost. The other looks for something they don't believe exists. A parallel time line Elizabethan mind control murder romance with a dash of erotica and everyone is guilty of something. What's not to like? Five beautiful stars. I am so excited for the next one and I hope Mrs. McLachlan won't make me wait for long. Well done Jamie. Well done. ...more

Rarely does a novel make me stop and say, "Damn. That was a great book." Mind of The Phoenix is one of those books. Jamie McLachlan has spun a wonderful tale with elements of several genres woven seamlessly into one book. The book is written in first Rarely does a novel make me stop and say, "Damn. That was a great book." Mind of The Phoenix is one of those books. Jamie McLachlan has spun a wonderful tale with elements of several genres woven seamlessly into one book. The book is written in first person through the eyes of the protagonist, Moira. The setting is turn of the century historic at first glance. The clothes, cars, homes and luxuries all suggest Elizabethan but it is not historical fiction. The author uses the familiar setting to make you comfortable and then diverges from there. An alternate timeline perhaps. Her characters and her ability to let you step inside their heads is where Jamie really shines. As in our world, a division exits between the haves and have nots. The oppressor and the oppressed. The division drives the plot but not because of wealth. Mrs. McLachlan would never use something so blasé' as that. The struggle is between those who can manipulate the mind and those who cannot (that's all the spoiler you get from me). In the midst of Mrs. McLachlan's familiar yet fantastical world, she spins a marvelous story between two characters on opposite sides of the tracks. Reminiscent of the great ones: Romeo and Juliette, Wesley and Katherine, you know who I'm talking about. She creates the characters from nothing and makes them real. She shapes and moulds them until you feel their thoughts and pain. You want them to succeed but she even holds that out of your reach. The success of one will be the undoing of the other and visa versa. There is no other way and yet, you, as a reader believe something will repair the seemingly unassailable chasm keeping them apart. Mrs. McLachlan teases you. She torments you and holds their union out of your reach but you believe and can't stop turning the pages. Is there romance? Arghhh.... I can't tell you without spoilers but... damn it was such a great book. Let's say just say it is about people drawn together in an impossible situation and if you love romance you won't be disappointed! Her writing is superb and flows without effort. You are drawn in, beat up and tossed aside only to crawl back and read more pages when you know you need to go to bed. Five brilliant stars. One more thing, the second book is even better but you will have to read this one first. A fantastic read. ...more

Although these books are the first I've read in the gay fiction genre, I've read several stories from Patient Lee and loved them all. She doesn't write "gay stories" or "lesbian stories", Mrs. Lee writes stories of love about real people in real situations. She finds the impossible and somehow manages to bring the characters together in satisfying endings which aren't only probable, in the end you believe everything is going to be okay even if she doesn't say it outright. She finds acceptance from where there once was none and makes you believe in the human race again. Out is no different. In this five story collection, Patient brings you five different views of men coming to grips with their own sexuality at different times in their life. A teen. A divorce. A bisexual man, a fisherman and a disabled boy. Each man faces his own demon's but like the rest of us, they also crave love and acceptance. Open your mind and understand, Patient Lee will show you the way: Love is Love. Five sparkling stars and a hope that the world can see what I do. Perhaps the most wonderful aspect of this collection is the few paragraphs Patient writes before each story telling you why she wrote them. I know a little more about her mind now. I'd love to know more.
Come With A Friend
This was my favorite story in the collection. I couldn't put it down. Young people dealing with sexuality is hard enough but throw depression in there and it becomes impossible. The premise is simple (read it, no spoilers here) but as a reader you can see no possibility of the author finding a happy ending in the midst of smoldering (palpable) depression killing this gender confused youth. You know misery is coming and you're wrong. PL does it again and you believe in love again. This one put me on the edge of tears and left me smiling. Five beautiful stars.
Christmas In July
Each of us acquires baggage in our lives, good and bad. Marriage, children, divorce and even confusion about your own sexuality. You would think sex and sexual desire would be easy but we all know it's not. Patient spins a story of two middle aged men trying to discover who they are and who they want to be. Together they both realize they can live again. To love and find another who can love them in turn, what else do you want? You already knew there would be five stars, didn't you Mrs. Lee?
Come On Down
Being gay is one thing, desiring both men and women is another altogether. Few of us are fortunate enough to find a solution to the craving of two genders. The twisting thoughts in your mind determine who you are and how you see the world. In another example of exceptional writing, Patient unveils a solution for one man. She shows the character's conflict and forces him to acknowledge who he is and who he wants to be. Five stars again. I'm a PL addict.
Gay Greenhorn On The F/V Lost Agnes
A crab boat in the Bearing Sea may experience a lot of things but a gay relationship isn't going to be one of them. Right? Wrong. Patient shows that love can bloom between men in the middle of a setting openly hostile to gay men. Though her words you see the world and experience every touch. Love can be found anywhere. Mrs. Lee will show you how. All you have to do is look through the stars. All five of them.
Love and A Hate Crime
I never saw this coming. I was worried how she would unravel this mess. A hate crime in process and an intellectually challenged young man. Too many ends. To messy. Not for Mrs. Lee. I should have had faith. She never lets me down. My second favorite story in the collection and a perfect ending to the book. Five more stars for your collection Mrs. Lee. Thank you for the worlds you have created. ...more
