John

I have served as a sailor in His Majesty’s Royal Navy for the past ten years and had no intention of changing that path. The death of my uncle means I must return to Blackthorne Estate to take up my position as Lord and Master. I’ll step up to do my duty. My dearest wish is that my beloved joins me. When he chooses to accompany me, I set my mind to making him mine—body and soul.

Philip

I have been a sailor for nearly thirty years and never planned to retire until my captain orders it. When my beloved is called to attend to his family’s estate, he asks me to accompany him as a valet. I’m happy to do so as it keeps me close to him. He wants to grow the affection between the two of us, but I feel the need to hold myself apart. In the end, though, I suspect he will win this argument.

About the Author

I live in beautiful British Columbia where my fur baby chin-poo keeps me safe from the nasty neighborhood squirrels. Working for the government by day, I spend my early mornings writing contemporary, gay, sweet, and dark erotic BDSM romances. While I firmly believe in happy endings, I also believe in making my characters suffer before finding their true love. I also write m/f romances as Gabbi Black.
