Wake Up Wednesday – Random Hotness part 7

hot men, Wake Up Wednesday

Do I have to say it?

Okay – another busy week (of course) so another random hotness.

(I need more free time :P)

The usual blurb –
I’ve always thought of Wednesday as the longest day of the week.  You’re halfway through your five-day grind at work and you just want it to be over with.  You find yourself dragging along and in desperate need of a pick-me-up, and what better way to pull yourself out of that daze then HOT men.
So, I’ve decided to create Wake Up Wednesday.  This is a posting of 4 pictures of hot men (in both the single and plural sense and in any way, shape, form, or position that I can find them… phew!) that’ll hopefully put that bounce back in your step to get you through the rest of the week – hey, it works for me, so why not 😉

Joyfully Jay Reviews Pavarus!

book review, Finding Home Series, Pavarus

Joyfully Jay gives Pavarus 4.25 out of 5 stars!

Joyfully-Jay-badge

Wesley has been dragged along on a camping trip, but he isn’t a nature lover and not so thrilled to be there.  Even less so when an accident in his canoe sends him through a portal to another world.  At first Wesley isn’t really sure what happened.  But when he sees the dual moons in the sky and witnesses a sudden attack by what can only be dragons, he realizes he has somehow ended up far from home.  And when a band of warriors rescue Wesley from the vicious dragons, he is just relieved to make it to safety.  But as Wesley learns more about Pavarus, the world where he has found himself, he finds it even more different from his home than he thought.  In some ways it is like Earth in the middle ages.  But as he learns about the existence of dragons and witches, and discovers the warriors who have aided him are actually vampires, Wesley finds that the only thing he really wants to do is go home.

Remus is the head warrior of his vampire clan and part of the group that finds Wesley.  Remus knows that he should bring him to the human village (where he wrongly assumes Wes has come from). But Wesley begs to stay with Remus, the only person he knows in this strange world. And Remus feels drawn to Wesley, even though he has never been attracted to men, and even if he was, he certainly doesn’t want a mate.  But as these men spend more time together, they realize that they are really meant to be with one another.  But Wesley still wants to return home, and Remus will do whatever it takes to help the man he has grown to love, even if it means losing him for good.

I picked this one up a while back in part of my attempt to broaden my reading horizons beyond so much contemporary.  And I am really glad I did because I found it an interesting twist on both the fantasy and paranormal genre, and almost a combination of the two.  There is definitely a fantasy feel to Pavarus, with the dragons and the witches and the medieval vibe to the setting and the villages.  At the same time, there is the inclusion of the vampires, an interesting twist that I don’t usually see in this setting.  I think Wright does a nice job here with the world building, showing the different factions on Pavarus and the animosity between the dragons and the vampires.  Here the vampires are mostly good, while the dragons are violent and dangerous and seek to harm the vampires.  I found myself drawn into the setting and think the world building is nicely done.

I also liked the relationship between Wesley and Remus.  Although it is pretty clear these two will end up together, I think Wright gives them some interesting challenges.  Remus is not initially interested in mating, nor is he interested in men.  I liked that despite the fact that this is technically an OFY story, there is really no issue for Remus at all when he recognizes his attraction for Wesley (and same sex partnerships are totally accepted).  I am always a sucker for the big strong protector character and I loved how Remus dotes on his smaller and more fragile mate. But I also appreciated that Wesley is a fighter and there is a lot of spirit in him as well.  I was a little frustrated by the lack of communication between them, especially as both start to realize they want more from each other and aren’t willing to say so.  This leads to a lot of the typical romance land miscommunication about what the MCs truly want.  But I also get that Remus doesn’t want Wesley to feel obligated to stay in Pavarus, while Wesley doesn’t want to force himself on Remus if he is not wanted.

The story incorporates some other side characters fairly prominently, something that I think works well with some small issues.  We meet several of Remus’ friends and fellow warriors and learn about their relationships.  Some of them are very interesting, like his friend Aliam and his mate, who have been together for years.  And his friends Zane and Larken, who are attracted to one another but haven’t figured out how to really admit it yet.  So I really enjoyed hearing these side stories and thought it brought some nice depth to the story.  But we also find ourselves in these guys heads for part of the book and at times it was distracting from the main relationship between Wesley and Remus. This is especially true early on before the MCs really have developed a relationship together and we spend a lot of time with these other guys instead.  Maybe just a little too much head hopping between them all.  I also didn’t really see the point of Damien’s feud with Zane, as nothing really happens and basically we just hear Damien complain about how much he hates Zane.  So I think this could have been tightened up a little, but I did enjoy these secondary folks and hope we see more of them as the series continues. (I am especially interested in the relationship between Zane and Larken!)

I also think the ending could have been a bit more solid.  There were some things that felt a bit muddled to me as they reach the climax, especially in relation to the head vampire Keddrick and his role in everything.  But overall I really enjoyed this one and found it a lot of fun.  I was totally engrossed and once I started I didn’t want to put it down.  I definitely am looking forward to more from this series.  So if you are looking for a fantasy with a bit of a paranormal twist, Pavarusis definitely worth checking out.

P.S. Just wanted to mention that there are some scenes of violence here, including an attempted rape. These are isolated incidents and it is not a violent book, but just wanted to put it out there.

Cover Review: Hmm, I am not sure what is happening here. I think they were attempting to make Remus look sort of pale (though he is not described that way). But yikes, a little overboard here on the color contrast.

Welcome Back Guest Author LM Somerton!

18 Thursday Jul 2013

Guest Author

I have the lovely LM Somerton again as a guest today. Since her last visit here, LM as extended her published library with two more novels, Stroke Rate and Mountain Rescue. But today she’ll be giving us an insight to her newest release, Reaching the Edge.

Please join me in welcoming LM back, and feel free to leave a comment or two. 🙂

LM Somerton 2 - Reaching the Edge banner 7-18-13

When and why did you begin writing?

I’m often asked how I got started and why I chose the genre I did. Well, it was a challenge – a dare really from a gay friend, who I’ll call Sam (not his real name). Over drinks one evening he showed me a chart he’d drawn up of all his mates, who they were with, whom they’d been with and which ones he wouldn’t mind being with! It was beautifully drawn with coloured arrows, circles and stars. There seemed to be an awful lot of arrows criss-crossing the page and a lot of boyfriend swapping going on.

I think I remarked that his social life would make a good plotline for a book and that’s how it started. He bemoaned not being able to find many gay stories he enjoyed and confessed to a liking for kink. A few drinks later and he had me promising to attempt an MM BDSM novel. The rest is history and the root cause of my vow never to drink again.

What inspired you to write Reaching the Edge?

I actually wrote the second book in the series first. When I posted some chapters on my blog, my readers really wanted a story about two of the peripheral characters, Joe and Olly, but it made more sense chronologically to have their story first. I often find inspiration in landscapes and had just been on holiday in North Yorkshire – that gave me the location for The Edge, a corporate training company owned by two of the characters.

How did you come up with the title Reaching the Edge?

I knew the book was going to be the first in a series and wanted to play with The Edge as a connecting point between the characters. So Reaching the Edge will be followed by Living on the Edge and Dancing on the Edge later this summer.

If you were to give your book a Heat Rating, (lowest) 1—simmering, 2—sizzling, 3—on fire, or 4—blazing (highest), which would it be and why?

All The Edge books are BDSM themed, so there’s plenty of MM kinky action – I think I’d go for 2) sizzling.

What’s next for you?

I’m working on plotlines for books 4 and 5 in The Edge series and am close to finishing the first in another series about two police detectives.

LM Somerton 2 - Reaching the Edge cover 7-18-13Book Blurb

Joe Dexter leads a complicated life. In one world he is a consultant criminal psychologist; in another he runs The Edge, a successful corporate training company. He’s also an active Dom in the London BDSM scene.

A social call to The Underground, a club owned by an old friend, turns into much more when Joe is introduced to a prospective sub. Falling hard for the boy’s tumbling blonde curls, huge blue eyes and desperate need for protection Joe carefully coaxes him out of his shell. By the end of an intense weekend, unbreakable bonds have been forged and Joe is well on the way to becoming Olly’s master.

Joe knows that there is trauma in Olly’s past, but it is not until his professional and private lives collide that Joe discovers the truth. He knows he shouldn’t have let Olly out of his sight but it’s too late – Olly’s old master is back on the scene and he’s not in the mood to forgive and forget.

With Olly’s life on the line, Joe risks everything to save him. Has Joe found his perfect submissive only to lose him in a horrible twist of fate, or will love win the day? They’ve reached the edge and there’s no avoiding a leap of faith.

Excerpt

Angel was slim, his body smooth and firm. The short leather kilt he wore sat low on his hips and emphasised the gentle curve of his arse. Joe judged that he must be around five feet ten. Apart from his spectacular eyes, his hair was his most remarkable feature—a tangle of unruly, loose golden curls that cascaded onto his neck and around his face. No wonder his nickname was Angel.

Joe knew that he must look intimidating and tried to move slowly. He reached out and tackled the buckle that held Angel’s kilt closed. Angel didn’t move, but there was obvious tension in his stance.

“It’s all right, I’m not going to hurt you.”

With the buckle undone, Joe allowed the scanty strip of leather to slip to the floor. The tiny net thong that held Angel’s dick was doing a very poor job of containing his burgeoning erection. Joe allowed himself one more circuit, drinking in the sight of a perfect arse, before he headed across to the cupboard and pulled out a big, fluffy robe.

He wanted to test Angel’s willingness to be naked in front of him, so he ordered him to remove the thong. There was no hesitation, but as Angel clasped his hands behind his back again Joe could detect the trembling he was trying to control. Angel’s cock bounced just a little, then settled into position, jutting firmly from his body. His chest was completely smooth and hairless, his cock and balls in perfect proportion to his body, nesting in delicate golden curls.

“Beautiful.” Joe handed over the robe with some regret. “Put this on, Angel, and take a seat.”

Angel looked at the robe in his hands as if it were a totally unfamiliar object. “I don’t understand, Sir.”

“It was a simple instruction. Do as you’re told.”

The firmness in Joe’s voice did the trick. Angel looked almost relieved at the tone of command. He slipped the robe on and wrapped it around himself, then took a seat on the sofa as far away from Joe as he could get, tucking his bare feet beneath him in an attempt to make himself as small as possible.

“Relax, Angel. You haven’t done anything wrong.”

Big blue eyes glistened with tears. “Do I displease you, Sir?” His voice shook.

Joe gave a small smile. “Quite the opposite, I can assure you.”
