Sideways Down the Sky

Barry Brennessel

Sinossi

In the land of snow monsters and steam baths, complex characters as diverse as the Japanese terrain experience lust, loss, and love.


A young boy performs a daring rescue. A woman loses her old life to face an uncertain new one. A teenager suffers through a cataclysmic event. Unusual bonds form at the Tokyo Olympics. A rent boy's hardened heart melts when he meets a sexy, buoyant stranger.


Much like the Japanese islands themselves, there is commonality to be found among myriad differences. The poet, the musician, the artist, the tortured mother, the bankrupt father, the protective brother -- they all know that there's a new day awaiting them after the moon slips sideways down the sky.


Finalist for the Ferro-Grumley Award for LGBT Fiction in the 27th annual Triangle Awards.

Don’t Bang Your Stepbro

DJ Jamison

I'm not one for rules, but Don't Bang Your Stepbro is kind of a no-brainer. 
 
 
 
Until I wake up naked in a Vegas hotel room with my stepbrother, Beckett, each of us with a hell of a hangover and a matching wedding ring. 
 
 
 
We've already made a huge mistake, so what's the point in denying what's been simmering between us for ages? Might as well enjoy the honeymoon, right? 
 
 
 
But what happens in Vegas stays in Vegas. Or at least, it's supposed to. 
 
 
 
With a hometown of family and friends who see us as brothers, not lovers, we have to find a way back to who we were before this snafu. But some boundaries can't be uncrossed. 
 
 
 
You don't bang your stepbro, but maybe . . . maybe when he's your husband . . . you do.

How can I not fall for a man who, despite past hurts, is the living embodiment of sunshine in our snow-laden village?
