Complicating Roy

by Megan Slayer


 

~~~~~~~~~~~~~

 

GENRE:   Contemporary LGBTQ Erotic Romance

 

~~~~~~~~~~~~~

 

BLURB:

 

Complication doesn’t always have to be a bad thing.

Duke Charles needs a break. He’s tired of life on the road and never having a place to settle down. He decides to head to Norville for a rest in his childhood home. Once there, he realizes his life isn’t quite so relaxed—he’s not only inherited the house, but a cat to go with it. When his friend from high school sends him on a date, he finds out how complicated life can be…in a good way.

Roy Mars likes his life as an artist. He paints, sells work and takes his cat, Raphael, for walks through Norville. He channels his emotions into his art…until he goes on a date and meets Duke. His uncomplicated life gets thrown into chaos, not least because Duke has rabid fans who insist on knowing every detail of his life.

Can Roy handle a little complication in the form of Duke, or will he quit before he finds his forever?

EXCERPT:

 


 

“Why don’t you get a boyfriend? Let him film you. I know a guy who’d be perfect for you,” Erik said. “He’s quiet, sweet, and loves the law. His name is Francis and you’d love him. Francis and Roy has a good ring to it.”

 

He loved his brother, but this pushiness annoyed him. “I’m good. I don’t need to be introduced to anyone.” Besides, he’d met Francis and wasn’t a fan.

 

“You’ll like him.”

 

“I’m fine.” How many times did he have to say that?

 

“You need to stop being picky,” Erik said. “You’ll price yourself out of the market and be lonely.”

 

“So? There’s nothing wrong with being picky. It means I know what I want and won’t settle for less.” He stopped pacing. “I need to go. I want to take Raphael home before I go to Dye Hard Style. I’m supposed to show work at Crush Gallery tonight and want to look my best.”

 

“You can’t take Raphael there? James won’t mind.”

 

“Maybe not, but Raphael would rather go home.”

 

“If you’re seen out walking Raphael, maybe you’ll attract a man who will love you and can stand your cat. If he doesn’t know you have a pet, with your luck, you’ll meet a guy who hates cats. Then where will you be?”

 

“Besides confused by your statement?” He pinched the bridge of his nose, then began to clean up the studio. “Love me, love my cat. No budging. Speaking of not budging, the mayor still wants that painting? I’ll leave it by the door for you to pick up. You can deliver it to him since he likes you more. I need to go, okay? I made the appointment for five and it’s a quarter after four.”

 

“Is it because James has a dog? I hear he got a dog.”

 

“Which is why I’m taking Raphael home—another reason why. I need to go. Is there anything else?”

 

“Nope. Have fun. I’ll get the painting to the mayor, but you need to do something interesting and put it online,” Erik said. “Film yourself.”

 

“Right.” He hung up on his brother. Why did Erik have to be such a pain in the ass? He affixed the walking harness and leash onto Raphael after he finished putting his brushes away. Once he tucked his keys, wallet and phone in his pockets, he turned off the lights and locked up. He headed down to the street.

 

People seemed to like watching him walk Raphael. How many people walked their cat? Not many.

 

He and Raphael crossed Memorial Park to his apartment. He took Raphael inside and ensured his water was fresh. He filled Raphael’s bowl with kibble. If Raphael wasn’t happy, then neither was he.

 

“Are you good?” He took the harness and leash off Raphael. “I’ll be back, okay? I’m getting a freshen up.”

 

He watched Raphael eat. “You’re a good boy. I wish I could find the human that liked me in the same way. Then I’d get Erik off my back and I might not be so lonely.”

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.”
