My Brother’s Lover is not yet available through Amazon in ebook form because it’s too hot for the robots policing their website. Some can handle two sets of gay twins, some can’t, I guess! We’re working on correcting the issue, but in the meantime, a Kindle-friendly format is NOW available here.

There’s also a FAQ page if you need help loading the file onto your e-reader.

I’ve never been one to compromise for the sake of narrow-minded expectations, and I feel blessed to be able to work with a publisher whose goal is to push boundaries, going places many others won’t in order to bring readers well-written erotic fiction that’s both hot and smart. Thanks, as always, to my readers for your patience.

Much love,
Lynn

Blurb:

Growing up gay in a small town with no mother, Evan Savage learned the hard way to cherish his secrets above all else. Now he’s 18, not even his father can hurt him anymore. When his long-lost twin brother Brennan shows up out of nowhere looking for a new home, Evan’s world, and his very identity, comes crashing down around him all over again. Brennan treats nothing as sacred in his search for a family connection after their mother’s death.

Frustrated and reckless, anonymous sexual encounters are just the first step on a journey of self-discovery for both Evan and Brennan. The sweetness of first love with twin brothers Alek and Luka leads them find in each other things they never knew they had lost…

…and lures them all into danger. (M/M+)

Excerpt:

Evan tiredly shuffled into the house with just enough sense left to know to try to be quiet. He’d started to fall out of practice with slipping inside late at night without being detected, not that Charlie ever went out of his way to give Evan a hard time about breaking rules. To get to his room, he had to walk past Brennan’s room first. The door to Brennan’s bedroom was mostly shut. Instead of going right by, tiptoeing around the squeaky boards, Evan pushed it open a few inches. Inside, he saw Brennan sprawled on his stomach across the big four poster bed wearing only a dark pair of low-slung boxer briefs. Instinct told Evan to indulge in enjoying the fascinatingly taboo sight of a near-naked body—whether it was a relative or not—overriding any moral responsibility to give Brennan his privacy. Evan tried to force himself to stop staring at the set of dimples denting Brennan’s lower back.

I wanna lick those. Or maybe just fit my thumbs right in there to hold him and just—

He broke the thought off right there. The dimples were right above the tight swell of what might have been the most perfect ass Evan had ever seen.

Stop looking you perv, it’s your brother. He’s your goddamned brother, and worse, he’s your twin brother. What the fuck’s wrong with you?

But it was just looking after all. He wasn’t hurting anyone by lingering and making sure Brennan was all right, or so he told himself. For some reason it hit Evan how incredibly young Brennan seemed with his face soft and peaceful with sleep. It made Evan wonder if that was how people saw him, too.

The word ‘Jailbait’ rang in his head, affecting him in a plethora of different ways. That’s not who I am, Evan thought. Or maybe he was just in denial. Most of the people in his life had no idea he was gay and he intended it to stay that way. But he couldn’t help but enjoy the way it made butterflies knock around in his stomach, remembering how it felt to have Alek call him Jailbait and treat him like someone unspeakably desirable. That wasn’t the first time he had let someone fuck around with him just because it seemed like fun at the time. It was the first time he really enjoyed it, though.

Release dates have just been set for both books 1 and 2 of my new MM Contemporary BDSM Romance series, My Brother’s Lover! Excerpts and content warnings (there will be a LOT of them!) to be posted soon. I’ve been making great progress with writing book 3 in this series.

My Brother’s Lover Blurb: Growing up gay in a small town with no mother, Evan Savage learned the hard way to cherish his secrets above all else. Now he’s 18, not even his father can hurt him anymore. When his long-lost twin brother Brennan shows up out of nowhere looking for a new home, Evan’s world, and his very identity, comes crashing down around him all over again. Brennan treats nothing as sacred in his search for a family connection after their mother’s death.

…and lures them all into danger. (M/M, M/M/M, M/M/M/M)

Twin Affairs (My Brother’s Lover 2) Blurb: All Evan Savage wanted was a quiet night at the bar, waiting for his boyfriend to finish his shift; what he gets instead is a nightmare. Things were complex enough when his biggest problem was the tangled sex life he and his brother Brennan share with twin lovers Alek and Luka. When a selfless act ending in terrible violence lands Evan in the hospital, Brennan and Evan’s father returns to loom over their lives, asking questions none of the four want to answer.

The young menís relationships to each other begin to unravel as carefully drawn boundary lines are blurred and crossed. The four must question the nature of their commitments to each other, what they each want, and what to say to those relentlessly demanding the truth. When the most dangerous thing you can do is admit to who you love, and jealousy is a luxury you can no longer afford, brutal honesty is the only remaining key to salvation…

…or damnation. (M/M, M/M/M, M/M/M/M)

CURSED BLESSINGS EXCERPT:

Lev’s body shifted before his eyes and he wasn’t moving a muscle. His big belly rolled all on its own. Edges and angles pushed at his flesh from within as it undulated as if something was trying to get out. He’d have been more disturbed if it didn’t happen all the time now. The movements served to remind him, though, how he used to think there was some creature inside of him—a huge parasite, maybe, or an old-world demon, or some breed of nasty looking thing out of nightmares, brought to life by the Romanian demon bitch’s curse.

But that hadn’t been the point of the curse at all.

The point had been sort of an epic double-whammy. He’d always been a womanizer and hardly ever considered the people he used and left behind. Sleep with a girl one night as he passed through a back-woods town, gone the next day. Part of this habit had been borne purely because of his vagabond lifestyle. Sometimes he wanted company. It was as simple as that. But, another part of it’d been a pathetic attempt to run away from who he really wanted to be with.

Lev wanted to be with Shaw, his best friend, who was married to a beautiful woman named Eva, father to Peter, a two year-old little boy who was conceived and born before the marriage took place. Lev wanted to be with Shaw, even if it meant destroying Shaw’s new family to do so. And, really, how sick was that?

Before Eva, Lev had sex with Shaw, once. It was amazing.

Shaw flew to Istanbul for one of his long visits with Lev. They drank two bottles of wine, stood out on Lev’s tiny balcony to enjoy the spectacular view of the city at night. They had to stand closely in order to fit.

Lev’s hand shifted of its own accord, made brazen by the wine, from his glass to Shaw’s hip. Shaw’s hand then moved to wrap the back of Lev’s neck. It was so intimate. It was intense. Lev couldn’t raise his eyes to meet Shaw’s gaze, to dare to hope. Love had always flickered there between them, but the nature of the sentiment seemed vastly different from one man to the other. Lev was secretly obsessed, battling anguished lust. Shaw was stoically devoted.

Just as Lev tried to grasp for a reason to leave, to escape the human intoxication touching him, breathing his air, Shaw set their glasses aside, slipping Lev’s from between his fingers. He leaned in, without hesitation, and kissed Lev firmly on the lips. Shaw’s fingers shifted to clasp the back of Lev’s head, brushing over the short strands of hair. Lev felt the gentle, deliberate caress all the way down to his toes. His skin pebbled with goosebumps. Instinctively, he opened up to the kiss.

Heart racing, sweating lightly, dizzy and drunk, he let Shaw pull his shirt off. When Shaw started to knead Lev’s pectoral muscle, swiping his thumb deliberately over the stiffened nipple, Lev was too overwhelmed to understand. As Shaw walked them back into the small flat and over to the bed which took up most of the room, he worked Lev’s pants loose.

I can’t even tell you how much it means to me, but I’ve received 6 nominations in 5 categories for the Goodreads 2013 MM Romance Member’s Choice Awards:

• Favorite All Time M/M Author

• Best BDSM – Bound by Lies

Huge thanks to all of my readers, and special thanks to those who nominated me. It’s one of those things that makes all of the hard work and worry worthwhile, to know my efforts are appreciated and that my readers enjoy what I’m putting out there. I do this all for you guys and even just being included in the nominees for these awards is really inspiring. It’s incredible to think that every single one of my novels has been nominated at some point in the MM Romance Readers Choice Awards. In 2012, Whatever the Cost was nominated for Best Book of the Year.

I’m so excited to be able to share with you the cover art for the first two books in my new, forthcoming MM Romance series, My Brother’s Lover. Right now, the goal is to release both novels in January, if the stars align properly.

My Brother’s Lover Summary: Eighteen-year-old Evan Savage cherishes his secrets above all else, but when a stranger named Brennan with a face identical to Evan’s enters his life, claiming to be the twin brother he never knew, nothing is sacred any longer. Evan’s past, the foundations of his identity, the choices of his parents and the source of his desires are all called into question. An anonymous sexual encounter with a stranger is just the first step on a journey of self-discovery for both Evan and Brennan as they find in each other things they did not know they had lost. The sweetness of first love with twin brothers Alek and Luka lures them all, unwittingly, toward danger, leading the four young men down roads wrought with temptation, and the most forbidden desires. (M/M, M/M/M/M)

Twin Affairs Summary: All Evan Savage wanted was a quiet night at the bar, waiting for his boyfriend, Alek Popović, to finish his shift; what he gets instead is a nightmare. If Evan thought his life was complicated when his biggest problem was his tangled, complex sex life, it becomes infinitely more so once one selfless act ends in terrible violence. With life hanging in the balance, closely guarded secrets about the nature of Evan’s relationship not only with Alek, but Alek’s identical twin brother Luka and Evan’s twin brother Brennan, are threatened. Family is notified. Questions are asked. Suspicions are raised. The four young men’s relationships to each other begin to unravel as carefully drawn boundary lines are crossed again and again. The foursome must question the nature of their commitments to each other, what they each want and what to say to those relentlessly demanding the truth. When the most dangerous thing you can do is admit to who you love, and selfishness or jealousy are luxuries you can no longer afford, brutal honesty is both salvation and damnation. (M/M, M/M/M/M)
