LOVING SUMMER RAIN
by Megan Slayer
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
GENRE: Contemporary LGBTQ Erotic Romance
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
BLURB:
A
match made in heaven? More like a match made in Norville and made to last.
Arthur
Burton wants a lover and partner, but no man seems to want to be with the local
insurance agent. He’s not the bland two-dimensional man on the billboards, but
he hasn’t been given the chance to show his colors.
Summer
Rain Davis embodies the bohemian lifestyle. He loves his arts and crafts. He’s
always had a thing for the buttoned-up professional types and when he’s set up
with Arthur, sparks fly.
Love
is possible in a small town if Arthur and Summer Rain are willing to give their
romance a try.
Can
these two men, seemingly total opposites, find common ground and love to last a
lifetime? Or will their differences keep them apart?

EXCERPT:
James turned him around to face the mirror. “So, what are we
doing?”
“A trim and polish. Just neaten me up.” His heart sank. He
was too buttoned-up already and not getting out of his comfort zone wasn’t
helping much.
James stared at him through the reflection in the mirror.
“May I try something? It won’t be too drastic, but I want to try a slightly
different look for you.”
James had the ability to style individuals to make their
uniqueness shine. If he had an idea for Arthur, who was he to argue? “Okay.”
“Yeah?” James grinned. The piercing in his bottom lip
sparkled. “You’re sure?”
“I am.” He needed something. This could be the small change
required.
“Good.” James combed Arthur’s wet hair. “Why do you look so
lonely and sad, doll? Not because of that review? Talk to me.”
He kept so much bottled up. If he couldn’t tell his stylist,
who could he tell? “Because I am lonely.”
“Why? You’re handsome, have your own business, are smart…”
James parted Arthur’s hair, then began trimming. “What’s not to like about
you?”
“I don’t know, but I don’t give myself the chance to look
for guys, that’s one thing.” He cringed. “That sounds doofy.”
“No, you sound scared and like you need a little help.”
James continued cutting. “You need a matchmaker.”
“I do.” He shouldn’t have admitted that out loud, but oh
well.
“What do you want in a guy?” James asked.
He sighed, buying himself some time to think. “I want a man
who is kind, considerate, who will work with me and make me better. A partner.
I want a guy who isn’t afraid to date an insurance agent. Someone who sees
beyond the shell and won’t let me get complacent.”
“And looks?” James stared at their reflection. He narrowed
his eyes, then resumed cutting. “You must have a type.”
“Not really. I like guys based on their attitude and ability
to empathize. It’s about being drawn to the man,” Arthur said. “You know? If
there’s a spark when we’re talking, then that’s the thing. If there isn’t, then
I don’t bother.”
“I do.” James finished cutting, then combed Arthur’s hair.
“Sometimes, you just know the guy is right.”
