Hi everyone,
Today I’m sharing a look at my gay romance, Four Days with
Jack. In this contemporary novella, best friends David and Jack embark on a
sexual relationship. David has always loved Jack and has fantasized about being
his lover, but he lacked the courage to admit his feelings—until now.
Four Days with Jack is set on a tropical island, and it’s a
perfect read if you’re looking to heat up your winter nights!
Here’s the book summary and a mild excerpt:
Four Days with Jack
When David invited his best friend on vacation, he never
expected them to fall in love…
Spending four days in a tropical paradise with Jack is a
dream come true. For years, David has lived a lie and denied his romantic
feelings for Jack. Now that they’re together in an isolated Caribbean resort,
he finally admits what he really wants—to be Jack’s lover.
Jack has been in love with David for years and is encouraged
by his desire to explore a sexual relationship. He’s more than willing to
introduce David to the life he has always fantasized about. Their sizzling
nighttime encounters confirm David’s long-hidden cravings, but what will happen
when they leave the resort?
Will David come out and start a new life with Jack? Or will
he go back to his old ways and risk losing the best friend he ever had?
The excerpt:
Jack finished brushing his teeth and studied his reflection
in the mirror. He looked happy for a change, and for once, he felt content. How
many years had he waited, prayed, for this night? He’d been hopelessly in love
with David forever. Now they were together. But why? What had prompted David to
make the leap?
Obviously breaking up with Allison had played a part in his
sudden “conversion,” but what would happen when they got home? Would David come
out to his parents and everyone else? Or keep living a lie?
He flicked off the bathroom light and went into the bedroom.
David’s steady breathing told him he was asleep. It was no wonder that he was
exhausted. They’d had a long day—flying in from Philly, sitting in the sun,
drinking… and now this. He smiled. And they still had two more nights in their
island paradise.
He walked to the veranda, slid the screen door open, and
stepped outside. The night air was a bit chilly, yet the cool breeze felt
refreshing. He gazed toward the ocean. A quarter moon reflected off the water.
In the distance, he heard calypso music and people laughing. That was an
interesting thing about the resort; although hundreds, maybe thousands of
people were around, it felt like they were alone.
You have to tell him about Andre. It’s only fair.
He leaned against the railing and sighed. Eventually David
would ask him how he could toss aside his live-in boyfriend of two years. He
was too morally straight not to question if this was considered cheating.
Ironically, he had been dating Andre exactly as long as
David had been with Allison. But Andre had kicked him out a week before David
and Allison called it quits.
Despite what happened, part of him still loved Andre. But
Andre had only been interested in getting hard and getting off. There was no romance
between them, just whatever it took to come. David was different. When he was
with him, it wasn’t about sex. They had a connection. They belonged together.
And besides, he couldn’t go back to Andre, not after what he
did. It was one thing to have an argument and move out, but when the person you
loved hit you—
“What are you doing?”
David’s sleepy-sounding voice broke him from his thoughts,
and he cleared his throat. “Watching the water,” he said, then reentered the
room. Thinking about the situation with Andre depressed him. Right now, he felt
like curling up with David and telling him everything—but he didn’t want to
burden him.
“Should I get a wake-up call?”
“Nah, let’s sleep in.” He stripped, then pulled the sheets
back and climbed into bed. Instinctively, they rolled onto their sides and
kissed.
“Thank you for tonight,” David said, nestling close. “What
can I do for you?”
“Hold me, and don’t let go.”
