Jude Garrity visits the farmers market every Saturday. As an environmental engineering student, he’s curious about living off the grid and sustainable agriculture.
And one particular farmer.
Hudson Oliva has worked hard to support his commune, where queer people live without fear of harm or retribution. When Jude asks pointed questions about living there, Hudson realizes he needs to be honest about his home. Few people know what the farm is actually about, but Jude is insistent.
Jude moves to Kaleidoscope Gardens, however his sexual hang-ups make it hard to adjust. He’s an uptight virgin living among people who have sex freely and with multiple partners. When Jude finally loosens up, Hudson is flooded with emotions. Falling for Jude wasn’t part of Hudson’s life plan. But when vindictive rumors about the commune begin to spread, love might be all he has left.
Picture
This is one book that is not a sweet love story.  I have to say I got pulled right into this book, and Kaleidoscope Gardens sounds like a wonderful place to live. 

Jude got out of his home as soon as he was able to go to College, to escape his mother and father, who did not react well to the news that Jude was gay.  While at College, he would go to a farmers market, and there he met Hudson, who lives at Kaleidoscope Gardens.

Over the course of a few weeks, Jude and Hudson chat, and both look forward to the market where they can talk more.  Hudson finally reveals to Jude about Kaleidoscope Gardens, and how they actually live there.  Jude decides that over the holidays, he would like to see how things are done at Kaleidoscope Gardens, and follows the instructions that Hudson gives him to apply there.

When Jude moves there, is when you really find out how things are done at Kaleidoscope.  Everyone has chores to be done each day, and nobody seems to complain about anything.  As with everyday life, there are difference of opinions occasionally, but these never last for long.

As you read about life at Kaleidoscope, you also learn about the home life of both Jude and Hudson, and I have to say they both suffered emotional and physical abuse, and were finding it hard to put their memories behind them.  It had a bigger impact that either of them realised - and the more than came out the more Jude and Hudson seemed to drift apart..... but is it too far apart for them to then reconcile or can their feelings for each other overcome this.

I really enjoyed this book, although at times it was hard reading, as being a parent I cannot understand how some people could treat their children like in the book.  I really did love Kaleidoscope Gardens, as everyone worked together, nobody was better than anyone else, but they all had their own niche so to speak.  You went on quite the journey with Hudson and Jude, and how this was written you were able to see the point of view of both men.

Dare to Hope Book 4 Cover Reveal by TM Smith plus Excerpt and Giveaway!!!

2/26/2016

0 Comments

 

Coming soon from Author TM Smith 
Dare to Hope, An All Cocks story book 4


{NOTE: This is an unedited blurb that will likely change before the release of the book.
Dare to Hope is still a work in progress.}

Tristan Brennan is the second oldest Brennan boy, the odd man out as it were. Where most men in his family have chosen a career in law enforcement, Tristan chose to be a Psychiatrist, he chose to help people in a different way. Tristan stays in the background, he is quiet and restrained. Because he saw the way some people reacted to his little brother coming out, Tristan chose then not to reveal his own sexuality. But meeting the grieving Gabe and the PTSD ridden Micah are making Tristan re-think many things about his life.

Gabriel Simenson is still in mourning from the loss of his lover in a random act of violence that rocked all the men at All Cocks. The only thing stopping Gabe from drowning in his misery is the friendship he has forged with Micah, the newest model at All Cocks. At everyone’s urging, Gabe agrees to counseling with Tristan, but only if Micah will go with him.

Micah can relate to unbearable loss, having lost his leg and his sanity in Iraq. Alone and broken but still beautiful on the inside and out, Micah found a home at All Cocks. There he is accepted, loved, and supported. It’s hard to let go of the past though, especially when the war haunts his dreams. Micah has found something that was missing doing gay porn, human contact.

Three scarred, broken and lonely souls, adrift and alone. Micah carries the scars from the war scattered along his body, carefully concealed by all the ink he got specifically to cover them. It still hurts Gabe just to breath, having lost a piece of his heart the night Gio was killed. Tristan has the love of his family and the security his job brings, but his life is still lonely. As the three men grow closer, Tristan feels more alone than ever, unsure of which man he wants to spend his life with. He doesn’t realize that not everything has to be a choice, sometimes you can have both.


An Exclusive Excerpt from Dare to Hope

{NOTE: Dare to Hope is  work in progress and has not yet going through edits.
This is an un-edited excerpt simply meant to wet your whistle.}

Dinner had been a bit awkward initially. It seemed no one wanted to start a conversation. Clipped words, awkward looks and uncomfortable body language were the appetizers for the evening. Eventually, Micah asked Tristan about work and school and that led to a comment about his family, and the conversation picked up from there.  

“Seriously, your family was upset that you decided to become a psychiatrist?” Gabe asked Tristan.

Tristan nodded as he shoveled a bite of manicotti into his mouth, chewing before he washed it down with a sip from his wine glass. “When you come from a long line of men that have worn blue, a large family that is equal parts Irish, Italian and pig headed, everyone is stubborn to a fault. Once they all figured out I was serious and what I was learning really made me happy, they backed off.”

Micah drank the last bit of wine from his glass then grabbed the bottle and filled his glass before topping off Tristan and Gabe’s glasses with the last few drops. Tristan waved the waiter over, tapping the top of the empty bottle, indicating he wanted another one for the table.  

“What about you Micah, what did you want to be when you grew up? Was it always the army, or was that decision maybe a spur of the moment thing?” Tristan asked. It wasn’t a subject Micah talked about freely, but he understood that Tristan was just trying to get to know him better, not pry about his injury.

Micah chuckled as he reached for his wine glass. “No, the army definitely wasn’t spur of the moment, but it’s not what I dreamed about when I was little either.” He paused to take a healthy sip from his glass then placed it back on the table next to his plate. “Believe it or not, I wanted to be a cowboy when I was little.”

“Really?” Gabe laughed.

“Yep. I was Woody, you know from the movie Toy Story.” Micah smiled remembering the happy day. “Well, I was Woody for Halloween one year and I fell in love with the boots and the cap gun. After that I started watching re-runs of Bonanza and The Lone Ranger and I told my mom I was going to be a real life cowboy one day.”  The mention of his mother clouded Micah’s mood for a moment before he shook his head and inhaled a deep breath, pushing any thoughts of his family swiftly away.

Gabe chuckled, eyes down while he filled his fork with pasta then stabbed at a meatball and shoved the whole thing into his mouth. Micah laughed, it was funny seeing Gabe’s cheeks poking out, sauce trailing from the corner of his mouth down his chin.

Napkin in hand, Tristan reached out and wiped the sauce off Gabe’s chin. Shaking his head but smiling, Tristan said, “You’ve got a mouthful of pasta…” and before he could finish the sentence Micah said, “…and balls!” He and Tristan both cracked up while Gabe did his best not to choke as he tried to swallow his food while laughing.

Gabe’s eyes watered from the mixture of laughter, chewing and choking, but he finally managed to swallow and when he opened his mouth to speak, he burped. This just caused the three of them to laugh ferociously again and Micah was fairly certain he coughed wine up through his nostrils, the burn was so intense.

When they all finished laughing, Gabe cleared his throat and smiled, lifting his glass in the air. “For the longest time, I didn’t think I would ever laugh again. Thank you both; you don’t know how much I needed this night out.”

“I’ll second that.” Tristan held his glass up.

“Here’s to stuffing your mouth too full, not choking to death, drinking some great wine and laughing out loud with new friends.” Micah tipped his glass in the air and the three glass clanked loudly when the met.

Rustic Memory by Nic Starr  5 Star Review

2/25/2016

Picture
Picture
Tyler Samuels had his reasons for leaving the country town where he grew up. He moved to the city, established a home and a career, and found love. Now Ty is in his early thirties, and as his life takes another tragic turn, he finds himself returning to the place he first ran from.

Mac McGrath has lived in Armidale all his life. He loves his family and his job as an electrician, running the family business. The only thing missing in his life is a relationship. When Ty, his teenage crush, arrives back in town, maybe he has found someone to love at last.

What starts as friends with benefits quickly turns to more for Mac, but Ty will need to let go of his memories if he is to learn to love again. But can Mac wait that long?
Picture
This is book 2 of the Rustic Series by Nic Starr, and I loved this one as much as the first one.

We meet Ty, who at first comes across as totally standoffish, but there is a reason for this, and that is told at the beginning of the book where we learn his two loves both died.  The first one in his teens and the second being his reason to move to Armidale.

We also meet Mac, who is a happy go lucky guy, he has great friends, his family nearby and a job that he really enjoys.  All that is missing from all this is someone for him to love who will love him equally in return.

Ty is attracted to Mac as soon as he meets him, but due to the traumatic events in his past, it seems like he has decided that he is never going to chance loving anyone ever again, as this only leads to heartache.

Ty and Mac meet, and they start a friends with benefits relationship, but Mac has high hopes of changing the status of this to being in a relationship, but when he mentions this to Ty, he does not get the reaction that he thought he would. Mac is left totally heartbroken, and he decides that he must cut his losses and try and forget Ty - which is easier said than done.

It takes other people talking to Ty, and an event with Mac and his dog Shadow for Ty to realise that his feelings for Mac are not as clear cut as he first thought.... that he does feel love for Mac. But has he left it too late to tell Mac how he really feels??

I am really enjoying reading this series from Nic Starr, and I am looking forward to book 3 in the series, which I believe is due out sometime in March.

Callum's Fate Tour Banner

Title: Callum’s Fate
Author: Dianne Hartsock
Genre: Fantasy, Gay Romance, Erotic Romance
Length: Novella
Publisher: Wayward Ink Publishing

Synopsis

In 1780, Scotland, following a harsh year of drought, Callum Mackenzie is forced from his father’s farm in the hopes of finding work.

But as fate would have it, Callum is lured onto the moors by the will-o-the-wisp. Lost in the dark, he falls into enchantment, encountering faeries and nymphs, until he stumbles into the arms of a licentious Barrow-Wight who lays claim to his soul.

Hearing his silent pleas, Donal sends Liam the gruagach (faery) to rescue Callum and bring him to his farm, a place of refuge from the Fae.

Callum is happy working on Donal’s farm, slowly falling in love with the beautiful, silver-haired gruagach.

Yet there’s something wrong in the nearby forest….

Despite Donal’s warnings, Callum is lured into the forest and becomes tangled in its magic, easy prey for the Barrow-Wight.

Will Liam be able to strike a deal with the Barrow-Wight to save Callum’s life, or has Callum found his last resting place instead?

Callum's Fate Dianne Hartsock Cover

Picture
When I read the blurb, even though this was a historical book, I was looking forward to reading this. Sadly however, I found this is one book that is not for me.  

This book is also a novella, so if you want a quick read, which is full of fae and other magical/mythical creatures, then this is the book for you.  It also quite the sex filled book too (which I will admit made rather hot reading!).

Sam is trying to find work, and has to leave his fathers farm, and somehow manages to get himself lost.... and he then has vivid dreams, or are they are vivid dreams?!......

Sam is rescued from the enchantments, and works on a farm, which he loves, but then he strays where he was told to never enter... 
Liam is sent to try and save Sam from where he is, but can he do so or does he have to more to lose than he thinks?

Blurb: “You’ll kneel for me without me having to tell you to. And when you do, you’ll feel so much better. Trust me.” - Detective Sam Roberts Officer Ryan Bennett: Ambitious and smart, Ryan Bennett is a young officer on Houston’s police force. He’s pursuing his dream of being promoted to the city’s elite SWAT team with a single mindedness that won’t accept any outcome but success. But that isn’t his only dream. Ryan wants more than a coveted position on SWAT. He wants to be owned by a strong Dominant. To give himself up to a Dom who will make him shudder with pleasure beneath a firm yet loving hand. Unfortunately, Ryan has had nothing but failure in that part of his life. Now, he’s hidden that dream away from everyone, including himself. And he refuses to let anyone close enough to see what he truly desires, and who he truly is. Detective Sam Roberts: Cool and calm, Detective Sam Roberts is good at reading people, during the day as a detective and at night as a Dom. He easily sees past the hard layer of arrogance surrounding Officer Ryan Bennett to the hurt submissive hiding beneath. He wants to help Ryan, even though the stubborn young man resists him. But Sam isn’t one to back down from a challenge. He’s determined to help Ryan embrace the soft, giving nature of his submissive side. Using both a gentle hand and the sting of the whip, he’ll work to coax Ryan’s submission free. But what will Sam do if he’s successful? Let Ryan go as promised? Or give the young officer the very thing he’s wanted for so long? Pages or Words: 105,000 words Categories: BDSM, Erotica, M/M Romance, Romance

​I have read some BDSM books before., and wasn't sure but when I read the blurb for this book I decided to try again - wow, so glad I did. This book was so different to what I had read before. and I really loved it.

Ryan,  I really wanted to hug. He came across to me as someone who felt so insecure in some ways, he had been with four doms before and none had collared him. I am sure he was convinced that there was something very wrong with him, and because of this he was building a wall around himself that nobody could get through. I think he also thought himself still in love with his previous Dom still, but I don't believe he was, he just wanted someone who he could submit to totally.

When Sam enters the frame, he definitely comes across as someone that has the time and patience to break through the wall that Ryan has erected around himself.  I loved the way that Sam handled him with kid gloves, but also with a firm hand too! Sam seemed to know what to do to help Ryan confess what he wanted., but I think that in some ways this helped Sam too. 

The road was rather rocky for Sam and Ryan, with a few misunderstandings along the way, but you can see both their points of view during this, but I will say sometimes I wanted to shout at Ryan that he was throwing away something good.  But then again on the other hand, I also wanted to shout at Sam at times too. 

I have to say, I loved reading the wax scenes in this book, I did find that these were really hot to read (as were all the other scenes in the book), but for some reason the wax really hit the mark with me. Although I was unsure, I could not put the book down, as I wanted to know if Sam could finally break through Ryan's tough exterior.  I look forward to reading more by this author. 

Excerpt: Ryan stopped picking at the wax and met Sam's eyes in the mirror. He didn't say anything. He just stood there, looking at Sam's reflection. “Do you need-.” Sam stopped. Ryan was on the brink of ... something. Sam knew what he said would either finally get him to open up or cause that hard shell to close even tighter around him. Remembering Ryan’s seeming aversion to needing someone, he asked instead, “Would you like some help?” Ryan moved his head, the movement so slight it could barely be called a nod. If they hadn't been staring at each other in the mirror, he would have missed it. Sam touched his fingertips to Ryan's shoulder, waiting to see if he would be rejected. Ryan didn’t react, so Sam moved in closer. When he laid the warmth of his palm across his back, Ryan closed his eyes and shuddered. He gripped the countertop with both hands, his head hanging low. “I don't know how to let go,” he said in a voice hoarse with restrained despair. Sam stepped forward again, moving close enough behind Ryan that he could wrap an arm around him. Ryan stood there for a second before he turned and leaned into his embrace. Sam looked at their reflection in the mirror. Ryan's blond head was nestled against him, streaks of wax down his back. For the first time he looked truly vulnerable, just as Sam had wanted to see him all along. He stroked Ryan's hair, pressing a kiss to the soft strands. “I'll show you, Ryan. All you have to do is trust me. I'll take care of the rest.”

Rustic Melody by Nic Starr - 5 Star Review

Picture
Picture
Adam Chambers has never seen eye-to-eye with his father and is reluctant to take over the family’s property-development company. To clear his head and work out what he wants to do with the rest of his life, Adam leaves his responsibilities in the city and heads out to see the country.

He isn’t much closer to deciding what to do with his life when he arrives at one of Australia’s largest events, the Tamworth Country Music Festival, and meets Joey Callaway.

Since Joey’s father’s tragic death left Joey the family’s debt-ridden pub, Joey has struggled, desperate to turn the business around and give his mum the life she deserves. A break away from the pressures of running the pub is just what he needs, and a hook-up with Adam is the perfect way to forget about his troubles.

The one-night stand might just be an opening act. If Adam and Joey can follow the music in their hearts, perhaps they can heal each other and create a melody that will last a lifetime.
Picture
Two men, both trying to find their way in the world, from very different backgrounds.

Joey was struggling to keep his place The Central Hotel running.  It was supposed to be a family adventure, with his mum and dad until his dad died.  Joey could not see a way of changing things around.

Adam is the total opposite.  He was working with his father, but soon became disillusioned with how his father conducted business.   He then takes a year to see where he wants to see his life going.

A music festival is where Joey and Adam meet.  Adam was playing his guitar, and Joey watches seemingly mesmerised.  The two exchange names, and then spend the rest of the day together.

Both are wary, but they get on so well together, and when Joey realises Adam has nowhere to stay, he invites him to bunk down in the room he has rented.

As the days pass, they really enjoy each others company and are getting closer to each other - until fate intervenes again, this time a call to Joey to say his mum has been injured.

Joey returns home alone, and he is moping around, missing Adam like crazy..... until the day Adam walks into the bar.  Joey is so happy, and even Adam admits he missed Joey.

The two grow closer still, and Adam is trying to help Joey make some changes to bring in more money, until the fates step in again, and this time it is Adam that has to go - his beloved grandmother has had a stroke.

Is there any chance for Adam and Joey, it seems like the fates are against them all the time.....

I really loved this story, as it was two people from different backgrounds.  Both were at a crossroads in their lives, and until they met had no idea what to do.  As this story finishes, you meet the MC for the next book, which I can't wait to read.

Blurb:

Jagger Jameson could be the poster child for a nasty childhood campaign but he refused to allow it to dictate his future. At an early stage, he learned to shut down all emotions and focus solely on survival. As it turned out, survival came in the form of a basketball scholarship with the University of Kentucky Wildcats. As the rest of the team around him focuses on having a good time and building friendships, Jagger worries only about using his talent to help him escape the life that was dealt to him. Everything is going smoothly until somebody from his past makes a reappearance and with just the mention of a name, Jagger finds himself struggling to maintain his cool façade. Colton Montgomery’s wealth allowed him the opportunity to have about anything in the world he could desire…except the only thing he’d ever really wanted – Jagger Jameson. When the opportunity to try and tame his Wildcat comes his way, Colton gladly accepts the challenge. Pages or Words: 105,000 words Categories: Contemporary, Gay Fiction, M/M Romance, Romance

Excerpt:

Sure, it had been less than twenty-four hours since he’d come face to face with Colton Montgomery for the first time in four years, but he’d managed to think of nothing but Colton Montgomery every moment he was awake. He thought of the way Colton’s emerald eyes had looked at him so intently that he felt like the man could dig into his soul, see all his secrets, know all the things he didn’t want people to know. Dick had described it as ‘dude, Colton Montgomery just spent the last thirty minutes eye-fucking you’ and then summed it up with ‘and he wants to fuck you’ – typical Dick. He’d thought he was prepared, thought he’d managed to build up an immunity against the rich prick that had stunned him years ago, but the second he’d walked through the door and saw him, every protective barrier he’d worked so hard to build over the years disintegrated with one lusty smirk from Colton. Fuck, he was in so much trouble. Riley knew…. One look in Riley’s eyes and Jagger didn’t have the first doubt that Riley knew he was attracted to Colton – hungry for Colton. His captain had given him a sympathetic look. It was as if he had somehow figured out that Jagger had always had the hots for a boy way out of his league and now, fucking now, when he didn’t need any distractions, that boy decided it would be fun to tease the poor kid – make him think he was wanted for something other than…hell, what was he good for if it wasn’t going to be sex? He’d never given himself to another man. Actually, Colton was the only man he’d ever looked at with those thoughts dancing around in his head. He’d fucked a handful of women over the years and enjoyed it…just enough to get the job done. There had never been the first doubt in his mind about his sexuality until Colton-fucking-Montgomery’s ten words. Fuck! The basketball hit him square in the chest, bouncing away and damn near knocking the breath out of him. “Shit, sorry, Riley. I was going over some plays in my head. I’m good, I swear.” Thank the fuck they were just in warm-ups before the championship game. “We Will Rock You” was blasting over the speakers because that song never got old when it came to championship games, whipping the crowd into a frenzy. Championship games were always a bundle of excitement – add a Cinderella story into it, and the people and media ate it up. Shit, even half the state of Kentucky kinda hoped Florida Gulf would win or at least make a good showing. What the fuck did they know? They didn’t have any idea what was on the line…how their winning might damn well destroy him. Sure, it was all fun and games for Colton Montgomery, but it was his fucking self-esteem, pride, and sanity up on the auction block. “Get your head out of your ass, Jag. I’m going to need you at one hundred percent tonight if we plan on winning this game.” His hands flung around the arena. “The entire crowd is either openly pulling for Florida Gulf or secretly hoping they win. I feel like we’re up against everybody in this fucking arena and my fucking point guard has his head shoved all the way up his own fucking ass!” Yeah, his tirade ended with a scream. That was Riley for you. He hated to lose. Well…correction; he didn’t like losing but if everybody played their damndest, he could take it. When they lost because one or more of them ‘had their head up their fucking asses’, he completely lost it. He was already losing it. “My head isn’t up my ass, Riley. I’m good. When the whistle blows, I’m going to shove this ball all the way up Colton Montgomery’s arrogant fucking ass.” He gave Riley a fist bump, hoping that was a normal action. He’d seen others on the team doing it…. “I hope so, Jag. If not, I’m afraid he’s planning on shoving something else up yours.” Riley crossed his arms over his chest and stared at Jagger, waiting for a reaction…any reaction. He wasn’t disappointed. Well, he was disappointed because he was fucking certain that without their point guard playing top notch, they were damn well going to get beat, but, on the other hand, some life in the kid’s eyes was something to see. Finally…. “There’s no need to be gross, man. I’m ready. Colton Montgomery will not score the first point tonight, mark my words.” Riley rolled his eyes. “I don’t necessarily think its gross, but I don’t think it’s what you’ve got penciled into that fucking life-plan that you’ve had since day-fucking-one.” He shoved another basketball against Jagger’s chest. “I’ll hold you to that promise of him not scoring any points, Jag…just don’t let him do the same to you.” The warning buzzer sounded before Jagger could respond (and question the ‘not necessarily gross’ statement) and the crowd went absolutely nuts. This was it. Championship game – it would look awesome on any resume he sent out. If they won…no, when they won, he could probably pick which accounting firm in Kentucky he wanted to work with. It all came down to this night. Even after he’d promised himself he wouldn’t do it, his eyes drifted to the other end of the court and immediately found his adversary. Colton Montgomery, in all his fucking, glorious, arrogant, rich beauty was staring right back, a confident smile curving his lush lips. He offered a wave and a wink. Jagger flipped him off and headed to his bench.

​Commitment, loyalty, and strength aren’t enough to make Wesley Stone’s birth pack accept an Alpha with a physical imperfection, even if it’s a meaningless mark. Putting the safety of his pack above his own wellbeing, Wesley trades himself for another Alpha and agrees to mate with a stranger in a mysterious, insular pack.

Alphas from Jobe Root’s family have led the Red River pack from the first day shifters walked the earth. Now the time has come for Jobe to fulfill his destiny, but to do that, he needs his mate by his side. Spiritual, easygoing Jobe reveres Mother Nature and trusts in fate, yet he can’t help being nervous about how his mate will react to his new life in Red River, his new life with Jobe.

Two Alphas with contrasting personalities, different upbringings, and divergent beliefs come together for the good of their packs. But to stay together, Wesley and Jobe must see beyond the surface and embrace every facet of themselves and their union.
Picture
This is the second book in the Packs Series, and this one deals with Mpreg. I have seen that this book has had mixed reviews, but I really did love this book.

Welsey Stone always assumed he would become alpha of his pack - Purple Sky. But his pack would not accept him due to his "differences", they felt uncomfortable and did not see him as alpha material. His uncle, the current alpha is getting too old to be alpha, and decides to make a trade with another pack - Wesley will go to this pack and mate with the alpha, and the second alpha from the Red River will take up the role of Alpha at Purple Sky.

Needless to say, Wesley feels totally rejected by his pack, and proceeds to leave as soon as he can. He arrives at his new pack Red River, but is not sure how to act or even how to speak to people. I really felt for him, as he was away from everything he knew, but now knowing what they thought of him he just wanted to get away. He came across as both angry and sad when he meets the alpha of Red River called Jobe. Matters weren't helped by a naked man in Jobes house either, and already feeling insecure, this made Wesley withdraw Into himself.

Slowly day by day, Jobe erodes away at the protective shell that Wesley seems to have around himself, and the two men grow closer. They enjoy each other's company, and spend the evenings talking., which is when Wesley realises that Jobe is a,so an alpha, and once mated they would both be the alpha of Red River. They actually balance each other out, but it took a while for Wesley to realise this, and to also find out that Jobe was in fact his fated mate.

The two men finally consummate their mating, but not without the inevitable happening - Wesley becomes pregnant, and at this time finds out that was his old pack thought was a deformed scar on his stomach, was actually something quite different. It was down to his Jobe to explain things to him, and to tell him that Red River thought they were blessed to have Wesley in their pack.

I really do like this series, and I am hoping that there will be other stories too - especially a story about the omega Ricky.

Writing is a nice break from real life as a corporate type and volunteer work with gay rights organizations. Cardeno's stories range from sweet to intense, contemporary to paranormal, long to short, but they always include strong relationships and walks into the happily-ever-after sunset.

TITLE: Mute Witness

AUTHOR: Rick R. Reed

PUBLISHER: DSP Publications

COVER ARTIST: Aaron Anderson

LENGTH: 290 Pages

GENRE: LGBT, Mystery & Suspense

RELEASE DATE: February 09, 2016

BLURB: 2nd Edition

The abuse of a little boy turns a community against a loving gay couple, and nobody comes out of it unscathed.

Sean and Austin have the perfect life: new love, a riverfront home, security. Their love for one another is only multiplied when Seans eight-year-old son, Jason, visits on the weekends.
And then their perfect world shatters.

Jason goes missing.

When the boy turns up days later, he has been so horribly abused he has lost the power to speak. Immediately small town minds turn to the boys gay father and his lover as the likely culprits. What was a warm, welcoming community becomes a lynching party out for blood.

As Sean and Austin struggle to stay together amidst innuendo, the very real threat of Sean losing the son he loves emerges. Yet the true villain is much closer to home, intent on ensuring the boys muteness is permanent.

1st Edition published by ManLove Romance Press, 2009.
Picture
This is quite a hard hitting story - from a child being abused, to a wife being abused and a totally homophobic mother.... it is all in this book.

Sean must have thought that nothing else could go wrong, after his son disappeared, but this was just the start of his nightmare.  When he was called to say his son was missing, he did what his ex-wife wanted and left Austin at their house. 

When Jason is found, he is left at a hospital, but is becomes apparent to the staff that he has been cruelly abused, both sexually and physically. They also realise that he has become mute due to what has happened to him.

Now is when the nightmare continues for Sean and Austin.  Due to some homophobic people, Sean has his visitation rights cancelled, and cannot see his son.  He goes home and takes all his frustrations out on Austin, and I have to say I felt so sorry for Austin.

I think Sean incorrectly thought that it would not affect Austin, but he was.  Austin loves Jason, and spending time with him, and as things go from bad to worse, he is then subjected to comments and being blanked at work, which Sean just dismissed.  I got rather angry with Sean at this point, as he seemed to be wallowing in his own self pity.

You soon realise who the culprit is in this book, but just as soon realise that he has scared Jason so much, that he won't say a word. You also see more of the abuse that Jason's mum endures, both at the hands of her husband but also her own mother. 

I am not going to spoil this for others, but you will be taken on a roller coaster ride, and maybe even sometimes not believe what you are reading.  You would think that things like this couldn't happen but sadly this is not the case, but in no way is this book glamorising things, you get the full picture of how everyone is affected.

This was quite the emotional read, as you clearly saw how everybody was affected.  Not all Seans decisions were the right ones, but you could fully understand why he did what he did.  Was he able to reconcile with Austin? Was he able to visit Jason?  Did they finally get the culprit??

My Hometown & the Setting for Mute Witness
A Guest Post by Rick R. Reed

 If any of my family or anyone I grew up with reads Mute Witness, they will know I based the town in the book, Summitville, PA, on my own hometown of East Liverpool, OH.

In the book, I describe Summitville like this:

As Sean drove through the streets of Summitville, with their curves and rises as the concrete mapped out a destination on the hills, he could not help but think what a contrast the little city presented: the beauty of the hills, rising up above the town, tree-covered, the Ohio River twisting through its valley, all scarred by the evidence of human habitation. The houses perched, clinging to the hillsides, most of them in need of paint or repair, the rusting carcasses of cars littering many of the driveways. People, too poor to afford air conditioning, sat on front porch stoops fanning themselves, staring dumbly at the traffic passing their homes. Sean wondered why he even bothered to live there. He was a good, if not great, writer, passable enough to maybe not write the great American novel as he had once dreamed of doing, but adequate enough to at least work at a larger newspaper in someplace like Pittsburgh or maybe even Chicago. But he knew the reason he stayed. And it was not because his roots were here. Nor was it because of Austin, whom he had once figured would be happy to pull up stakes and follow him anywhere. Nor was it because of his job, which valued his writing ability at the majestic sum of $32,000 per year.

No, he stayed because of Jason. To be near his little boy. The only child he would ever have. He wanted to watch his son grow up, to shepherd him to adulthood, to make sure he grew up compassionate

An article on rustwire(dot)com East Liverpool and the Unforgiving Economy of Rural Appalachia, (from 2014) describes East Liverpool today sadly, yet accurately. Just a disclaimer - this little town is where my roots and most of my family and some dear old friends are, so I do not mean to disparage, but only to illuminate my inspiration for the fictional town of Summitville.

About 100 miles Southeast of Cleveland, nestled in the foothills of the Appalachian Mountains, along the Ohio River sits the small city of East Liverpool, Ohio. Once known as the pottery capitol of the world, many of the China and glassware factories have closed, as have the steel mills where many East Liverpool residents once worked. In its heyday during World War II, almost 50,000 people lived in East Liverpool. Today the cities population tops off at just above 10,000.

Nearly 30 percent of all residents live below the poverty level. The per capita income is just more than $16,000. The unemployment rate is 13 percent. It is a city where almost every second or third house seems to be abandoned, and not just abandoned. Some are burnt out. Some are falling down. The locals talk about the incessant and merciless drug traffic. They say dealers have come up to the city from the east coast - having found a robust market for heroin and other opiates. The drug trade wreaks constant havoc on the streets. In late September, five people were shot there in a single night.

  Excerpt 


IT WAS one of their rare lazy evenings. Summer, and the evening air was fresh and clean after an afternoon thunderstorm, with just a hint of a breeze. Normally, Sean and Austin were so busy that if they weren’t trying to change something about the little Cape Cod on the Ohio River they had bought a year before—adding a deck, putting in a new kitchen, stripping away years of white paint from the woodwork downstairs—they were too tired to do anything but crawl into bed and pass out, usually before eleven o’clock. Lovemaking, since they had bought the money- and-time-sucking house, had become relegated to weekend afternoons and the occasional early morning.

But today, Thursday, had been an easy one. Austin had called into work—the Benson Pottery, where he was a caster—and taken a mental health day. Things had just been too damn busy lately, and he needed the break. Waiting until Saturday was out of the question. Sunday seemed further away than the next millennium.

Sean, a reporter for the Evening View, the local thrice-weekly compilation of ads sandwiched in with a little editorial, had the day off. The couple spent the day in Pittsburgh, at the Andy Warhol museum, then had an early dinner at the Grand Concourse (the best paella on the Monongahela and Allegheny rivers), beat the brutal thunderstorm home, made love (acrobatically, in the kitchen, atop a butcher block), and now the two were curled up in front of the TV. Sean had rented Who’s Afraid of Virginia Woolf? and, after a bowl of Jamaican and a couple of vodka and tonics, the two were teary-eyed with laughter.

Sean looked over at his younger boyfriend and thought how lucky he was to have found Austin, especially in a town the size of Summitville, where the population hovered just above ten thousand. Even better, Austin was his fantasy man, with a broad, beefy body that his mother and her friends would have called strapping, sandy blond hair, and the bluest eyes he had ever seen. When Sean first met him, he thought Austin’s eyes had to be fake, enhanced by those tinted contacts that never looked real. But he found quickly that the young man was simply blessed with arresting eyes to go along with his broad shoulders, dimpled chin, and infectious smile. He wore that smile right now, coming down from a fit of inappropriate laughter after hearing Elizabeth Taylor tell Richard Burton something along the lines of “I’d divorce you if I thought you were alive.”

A sick sense of humor was yet another thing the pair had in common.

It was what they both would have agreed was a perfect day. Well, Sean might have had one more item to add to the “perfection” list. Having his son, Jason, around for at least part of the time would have been all it would have taken to make the day ideal, but these days, Jason was for the weekends only.
In any case, this was close enough to nirvana. He closed his eyes and let his head loll back on Austin’s shoulder.

Sean was just thinking about slowly undressing Austin and then leading him into the bedroom for round two when the phone rang. Its chirp startled both of them out of the cocoon of warmth that had surrounded them, a cocoon built from good sex, supreme relaxation, and the afore-mentioned Jamaican weed.

Austin said, sleepily from under Sean’s arm on the couch, “Don’t get it. Please don’t get it. Just let the machine pick up. I don’t want to talk to anyone. And I don’t want you to, either.” Sean eyed the little answering machine next to the cordless, wondering when they would enter the twenty-first century and use voice mail like everyone else. But, unlike voice mail, the machine did allow them to screen calls, and for two men who appreciated their privacy, this feature had voice mail beat all to hell.

Sean let the phone ring its customary four rings, although his tendency would have been to answer it. But if this would make Austin happy, then he was willing to do it. Especially since he had things in mind for Austin that did not involve the telephone. Things that would erase their fatigue and perhaps keep them up the better part of the night. Sean grinned.

On the fourth ring, Sean pressed the pause button on the remote control and sat up straighter to listen.

“Whatever it is, it can wait,” Austin whispered in Sean’s ear, flicking his earlobe with his tongue and giving his crotch a playful squeeze.

And then the moment shattered.

Shelley’s voice, almost unfamiliar under the veneer of tension that made it higher, quicker, came through. Shelley and Sean had been married once upon a time and their union had produced Jason, the best little boy in the world. As soon as Sean heard Shelley’s voice, he thought of his son, who shared his dark hair, green eyes, wiry frame, and his fascination with stories.

“Sean? Sean, I hope you’re there. This is important. Please pick up.” There was a slight pause. “It’s about Jason. He—”

Before she could say anything else, Sean sprinted for the phone in the entryway. “Shelley? Sorry, I was…”

“Jason is missing.”
