Blurb
When
an accident burns down Jesse’s apartment, he’s left broke and
homeless, with a giant dog and a college schedule he can’t afford
to maintain. And no family who’s willing to take him in.
Lucky
for him, a sexy fireman offers him a place to stay. The drawback? The
fireman’s big Latino family lives next door, and they don’t know
their son is gay.
Tomas’s
parents made their way in America with hard work and by accepting
help when it was offered, so he won’t let Jesse drop out of school
just so he can afford a place to live. Besides, Jesse’s the perfect
roommate—funny, sweet and breathtakingly cute. He climbs into
Tomas’s bed and tugs at his heart. Until Jesse starts pushing for
more.
Their
passion enflames their bodies but threatens to crush Tomas’s
family. Tomas is willing to fight for Jesse, but after losing
everything, Jesse isn’t sure he can bear to risk his one remaining
possession—his heart.
Warning:
Contains an angry older brother, judgmental best friends, a
slobbering bull mastiff, and enough red-hot gay loving to make a porn
star blush.
Excerpt
Whimpering,
Char tugged on the leash. She backed up and barked to shoo the other
dogs away. But then Sushi went around to sniff her ass, and Char took
the opportunity to return the favor. Suddenly, something was decided
between them, and they were sniffing all over each other, play
fighting.
It
wasn’t much different than the couple clubs Jesse had been to,
except that men tended to wait until they were in private to lick one
another’s butts.
Only
Chester hung back, batting with his paws. He seemed to want to get in
a couple sniffs but was thwarted by the more aggressive Sushi. With
his gray muzzle, he had the air of an old dog, one not up to
wrestling with a hundred- pound mastiff.
“I
think I can let her go.” Tomas struggled to get the collar off
Chardonnay’s neck and set her free.
Fur flew
everywhere as the two dogs wrestled and grabbed and yelped and
growled, with Chester barking his loudest in the background. Jesse
stepped forward to stop them from hurting one another, but Tomas
pushed him out of the way.
“They’ll
figure it out,” he said, close to Jesse’s ear. The way he crowded
him toward the door was exactly what Jesse liked. Jesse didn’t have
much experience—just that month and a half with Bobby, and a few
hookups since he’d moved to Seattle—but a guy advancing on him,
pushing him into a wall or onto a bed... Man, the rough-and-ready
types really turned his knob.
“Um,
yeah.” He’d forgotten what he and Tomas were discussing.
A loud
yelp sounded from the yard. “Aren’t you worried one of them’ll
get hurt?”
Tomas
gave Jesse a smile so hot it could have melted paint off the walls.
“Nah. Sushi and Chester were strays. They’ve toughed it out
before.”
Birkenstock-wearing
glamour girl and mother of two by immaculate conception, Daisy Harris
still isn't sure if she writes erotica. Her romances start out
innocently enough. However, her characters behave like complete
sluts. Much to Miss Harris's dismay the sex tends to get completely
out of hand.
She
writes about fantastical creatures and about young men getting their
freak on, and she's never missed an episode of The Walking Dead.

Thanks for having me on the blog Lisbet! And thanks, readers, for your comments!
Andra—I tend to have my characters close in age. Even 5 years difference feels like a May/December for me. And I feel the same was about reading. With older characters, I don't mind a 7 or 8 year difference. But once it gets to be 10 or 15 years, I'm not so into it. I like my characters to have equal power in relationships, and huge age splays don't really do it for me.
How about you guys? Do you crave a wide age gap? Or are you into characters closer in age?
