Here's a link to the reviews.

Spot Me:     Review

Bottled Up:  Review

I also received this review on Amazon for Child of Joy.  Link

To write a book is one thing. To write well, with unique, quickly-alive characters in interesting situations is another and not as often achieved as I would prefer. To create that world, and with it, your own mythology in addition to the unique characters and do it as well as my colleague Mr. Grey h...

The next installment in the Love Means... series releases in one week from Dreamspinner Press.  If you liked Geoff and Eli, Cliff and Len, I'm sure you'll like Joey and Robbie.  

 Robbie is a blind musician who's been sheltered by his family.  This is a snippet from when his boundaries first start to fall: 

Robbie  changed clothes and made his way down to the kitchen, pleased at how easily he was finding his way around the house. “Are you ready?” Joey’s voice rumbled around him.

“Yeah.” He felt ...

An Unexpected Vintage


This week, I received the contract for An Unexpected Vintage, so I wanted to publish an excerpt.  The book is expected to be released in April 2010.  I hope you enjoy...

 

“After lunch, Bill and I planned to put on our suits and make the most of the pool deck.” Tom leered openly at his partner. Those two were still so much in love. “What about you guys?” Bill began eating ravenously. “Then I thought we’d get in a workout. I’ll need it after this lunch.”

“I’d like to get some sun. How about you...

An Unexpected Vintage

I finished the review and submitted the manuscript for An Unexpected Vintage.  More than a follow up to Bottled Up and Uncorked, this story features a number of old friends, including Bottled Up's Sean and Sam, but also the boys from Spot Me, Mark and Tyler from The Best Revenge, and new characters I hope will become like friends.  The best part is, they all go on a cruise: fun, sand, warmth, alot of hot bodies in bathing suits, and the occasional obsessive passenger.  While this isn't The Lo...
