    About this ebook

    Is this a joke, or payback? Voltan space-trader, Devin, can’t believe that the Pleasure Dome has dispatched such a sex-mate. The younger man is so hairy and dirty, with a beard—for the stars’ sake! Not that Dev wants a perfumed, coiffured man to share his bed, but the sex-mate had better scrub up, or he’ll demand a refund. Dev is lost the moment he hears Robert’s voice and looks into his haunted green eyes. He has to have this man, or die. Robert Warren is running for his life. Deep in enemy territory, the last thing he wants is a close encounter with any Voltan, but that’s what it’s going to take for him to win his freedom—servicing the man who thinks Rob is a pleasure-man. Cripes, he’ll just have to close his eyes and thrust—each thrust taking him closer to home. Plans and desires go awry. To survive an enemy intent on destroying them both, Dev and Rob have to call a truce in bed and out of it. It’s a whole new take on comrades in arms...

      About Ed

      Jun 14, 2022

      I walk into the orchid show with Ed. As soon as I see the tumultuous hall I know he won’t last long. Ed walks like an old man though he is forty. After ten minutes on his feet, he vomits on some purple phalaenopsis. I get him outside through a fire e

      In Which Dave And I Find An Amphibious Unicorn

      Feb 13, 2019

      We stood under a gang of towering firs on a shoulder of Mt. Hood, puzzled. Ferns slouched from their branches and loitered on the ground. In a place this strenuously green, it was easy to imagine we were the first humans, especially since we were los
