The Mercenary: A Historical Gay Erotica Romance by Sam Knight

There’s something about Christian, the man who hired Aiden as a mercenary, that gets Aiden’s pulse pounding. Aiden’s never felt this way about anyone, which says a lot about his employer: a beautiful, svelte, and dominating merchant. Tasked with protecting his patron from Byzantine knights, clever assassins, and the fierce winter wilderness, the odds are stacked against them.

Even as a hardened mercenary, Aiden finds himself dropping his guard. Is he just a disposable human shield to his employer?

Christian is a merchant of pleasure who deals in novel drugs, taboo sex, and other unique experiences and is now on the run from powerful enemies who want him dead. But he’s been lying so long about every aspect of his life that it’ll take more than a strong hand to help him escape his many demons. Will the growing loyalty of a lone mercenary be enough?

*Please note: The Mercenary is over 19,000 words and contains very explicit situations occurring between consenting adults; it is intended for a mature (18+) audience. Reader discretion is advised; but reader pleasure is encouraged.

About the author:

A 30-something wild child who loves cocktails and the beach, Sam lives in San Jose and takes notes for stories in local bars and cafes, sometimes with trusty dog in tow. A man with two jobs: smut author (awesome), software engineer (boooring), and frequent traveler.

What inspired you to write your book?

Not having gay figures in literature of any kind growing up… or even ’til recently! And often when you find them, they rub off as cardboard cut-outs there to show how PC and inclusive the author is, to be villains, or comic relief. I wanted to do something different.

Here is a short sample from the book:

Aidan breathed a low and deeply satisfied sigh, letting his fingers touch the coarseness of it, gliding through the darkness of unbound hair. His fingers curled, his blunt nails scratching lightly at his lover’s scalp. “You always know how best to please me.”
The words sent a shiver of warmth gliding through the stable boy’s belly, and he pressed in closer, arching like a cat to be stroked, butting up against Aidan’s hand. He turned slightly, so he could nuzzle at the inside of his wrist, kissing, lapping gently at the thin, delicate skin there.
“Tease,” murmured Aidan, the words almost an open-mouthed moan, his fingers flexing, gripping the young man’s hair a little tighter, a little harder. Pressing his skin just a little into these affections, his cock hardening enough to tent at the fabric of his breeches.
“Always.” The young man promised softly, pressing one last kiss to the inside of his wrist. Then he pulled back, only to slowly sink down to his knees before the older man, looking up with grey eyes were warm and hazy with lust. Without a word, he reached for Aidan’s belt, slowly unbuckling it, pulling the leather free with a low hiss. He took his time though, enjoying, teasing, and pushed up close, pressing his face into the warm, tented bulge of his lord’s cock, nuzzling softly, and breathing in deep. He let himself sink into the scent of musk and shuddered.
Aidan let the other man lower himself.

    Close your eyes.

    Fall in love.

    Stay there.

    ~ Rumi

    You never know who you’ll fall in love with, or why, or whether it’s a good idea – ask Rowan in A Star, A Stone. A sudden rainstorm – Stormy Weather – or even an exercise class – The Queen of Heaven – can be the spark that creates abandon and exhilarating passion between two lovers. In Dolce, a full-course Italian meal prepared with love whets . . . other appetites.

    The stories in Perfect Need explore what love and passion can become, how they can affect two people for a moment, or for a lifetime; when they tumble into a love they never expected; when they decide it’s worth the risk to stay . . . or not.

    Hot steamy dreams… a sexy stranger… and his two brothers… all add up to a sexy adventure she’ll never forget.

    Lori’s steamy dreams about a hot hard stranger are hitting fever pitch. She needs way more than eye contact and a smile across a crowded subway station. An instant connection sizzled between them and now Lori, who’s never believed in love at first sight, is its helpless victim.

    When Lori goes to her best friend’s cabin for the weekend to spend time with Marie, her new husband and his brothers, she’s surprised to wind up face-to-face with her fantasy stranger. But he’s Marie’s husband!

    When she meets his brothers, however, she finds that there just might be a way to make her dream come true.

    Note: This intriguing short story is scorching hot, with more than one handsome hunk to bring your wildest fantasies to life. Consider yourself warned!

    THREE MEN AND A BRIDE

    What do you do when you can’t stop lusting after your new husband’s two gorgeous brothers?

    Can Marie successfully suppress her fantasies of the three brothers making wild, luxuriant love to her, or will she have to endanger her happy marriage by admitting her feelings to her husband, Drake?

    THREE SECRETS

    Keeping one secret is intriguing. Two is naughty. Three… deserves to be punished.

    Sharing secrets has never been so exhilarating…

    When they met in Paris, Nicole and Abel enjoyed a sensual, romantic two month fling. The last thing Nicole wanted was to fall head over heels for this sweet, loving man, because she knew he would never accept the truth about her. Unfortunately, the heart wants what it wants, and hers wanted Abel. But Nicole was not one to be controlled by anyone or anything, so once they returned home, she walked away.

    When the pain of losing Abel became too much, Nicole finally decided to share her secret with him. Little did she know he had a secret of his own.

    Will Abel’s secret extinguish Nicole’s craving for him once and for all? Will Nicole’s revelation bring Abel to his knees?

    This is a collection of super hot short stories.

    Length: 25,500 words

    Thrones of Desire: Erotic Tales of Swords, Mist and Fire by Mitzi Szereto

    0 out of 5

    Thrones of Desire is a place where lust and legend abound, and adventure, passion and danger entwine. Think mystical lands and creatures, kings and queens, knights and renegades, heroes and villains, warlords, maidens and princesses. Think battles and danger, honor and dishonor, good and evil. Most of all, think hearts filled with passion and secret desire. This is a place where romantic chivalry is alive and well, but so too is romantic wickedness. This is a place where the good do not always win, and the bad are often more captivating and desirable than their altruistic counterparts. In these lush and timeless landscapes, the battle for flesh can be as important as the battle for power. Intrigue, sorcery, revenge, lawlessness, dark secrets and mysterious elixirs; entanglements with supernatural beings — everything is possible in these magical mythical landscapes. Inspired by Game of Thrones these imaginative steamy tales transport the reader to fantastical realms. Featuring a special foreword from legendary fantasy author Piers Anthony.
