Marc doesn’t associate the memory of a hookup gone horribly wrong with this fresh-faced, smiling twentysomething… but Jimmy knows. The drug transformed him into a different person-a lying, conniving thief who robbed Mark blind during their one-night stand. He was painfully skinny-and a meth addict. Back then, Jimmy sported multiple piercings, long bleached dreadlocks, and facial hair. Marc has no recollection of their original encounter because the wholesome Jimmy of today couldn’t be more different than he was two years ago. See, when Marc believes he’s meeting Jimmy for the first time in the diner where he works, he’s wrong.

Marc, although a bit older, complements Jimmy with his humor and his openness to love.īut between them, a dark secret lurks, one with the power to destroy. Jimmy’s kindness and clean-cut cuteness radiate out of him like light. Here is one of his latest books, The Perils of Intimacy! He is forever “at work on another novel.” Take a look at his blog to get the latest on his work and his life! Lambda Literary Review has called him, “a writer that doesn’t disappoint.” Rick lives in Seattle with his husband and a very spoiled Boston terrier. He is also a Rainbow Award Winner for both Caregiver and Raining Men.

He is a three-time EPIC eBook Award winner (for Caregiver, Orientation and The Blue Moon Cafe). He is the author of dozens of published novels, novellas, and short stories. While his stories often contain elements of suspense, mystery and the paranormal, his focus ultimately returns to the power of love. Reed is all about exploring the romantic entanglements of gay men in contemporary, realistic settings.
