A Little Too Broken - Chapter ONE

Here's a preview of my next audiobook, "Given the Circumstances," coming soon to all fine retailers!  

Two promising college athletes meet, each needing something only the other can give him… 

When Roger and Brian lock eyes on the first day of school, a friendship is born. Both men are hungry for connection – Brian needs the acceptance, encouragement and support he never had growing up, and when he finds out his new best friend is gay, it brings his own sexual identity into question. Roger needs a big brother, a best friend, but that will never be enough, especially not when he’s this close to big, strong, handsome Brian. 

And both men want something more – careers as professional athletes. For Roger, the demands of the closet, the need to reject the love of a man to fulfill his love of the game, will be a crushing burden. For Brian, his downfall will be the substances he uses to get an edge over the competition, and to suppress his gnawing self-doubt and guilt. 

One set of desires will bring them together, the other will force them apart…

Given the Circumstances - Chapter One

This is the opening of Edward Gibbon's "Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire," which at this point I'm doing because, well, it's fun. Also, many of the British narrators who've recorded the full book really ham it up, making the book sound more like the introduction to a 1950s Bible and/or Sword and Sandals movie. I'm trying to reclaim the tone :)

I'm now 1/2 hour through Chapter One!

Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire, Chapter One

The first three chapters of the upcoming audiobook, "Would I Lie to You"! As always, narrated by the author! Coming in September to Amazon, Audible, iTunes and more!

Would I Lie To You - Sample Chapters

THE FIRST TWO CHAPTERS from "Apollo's Curse: The Audiobook," now available at all fine retailers!

All Dane Gale ever wanted was to be a successful writer. After a few sessions with his new friends Rose and Sherry at a romance book club, well, the more romances they read, the more they’re convinced they can do better. And do they ever! They join their creative forces to become “Pamela Clarice,” self-published romance novelist. When they look for a cover model for their first book, Dane sees the photos that will change his life. 

Paul Musegetes is the world’s most popular romance cover model, and the most secretive. Dane soon finds himself obsessed with this supernaturally handsome man, and when he meets Paul at the Romance Writers’ Ball on the Summer Solstice, he and Paul connect for one night of passion…

After that night, Dane's a writing machine. He can’t stop writing romances, and every story he touches turns to gold. But he also finds that he can’t write anything but romances. And soon he's spending every waking moment of every day writing another after another...

Then Dane finds out that this Midas touch has a heavy price. When the year is over, he’ll never write again. Not a romance, not a serious novel. Nothing. Not even a grocery list. And that leaves him with only one option – find Paul, and get him to break the curse. But before he can do that, he’ll have to track down Paul’s equally mysterious photographer, Jackson da Vinci…
