The night sparkled cold and the sky displayed an array of stars suddenly seeming only meters away, a shooting star flew across my line of vision, then another as if it followed the first. #MMromance #gayromance @evernightpub

 


The story ‘Falling Star Valentine’ was inspired by shooting stars. We all know shooting stars are falling meteorites, but the romance remains when one streaks across the midnight blue sky, and when two, in close succession, zoom over the night vista as you stand on your hotel balcony, it’s a sight to behold. I travel a little with my day job and in the autumn of 2016, I had to travel a lot more than usual. One night when I couldn’t sleep because I was churning worries around, I went out onto the balcony of the hotel room I was staying in and stared up at the sky. The night sparkled cold and the sky displayed an array of stars suddenly seeming only meters away, a shooting star flew across my line of vision, then another as if it followed the first.

I’m a die-hard romantic and immediately my sweet but sexy character, Valentine Steel, had formed in my head. He’s Falling Star Valentine on his way to visit earth. Will he find love?

Fashion photographer Dale Walker takes a train to his hometown, relocating there after nursing a broken heart for six months in another city. His train makes an unscheduled stop to take on a mysterious passenger.

For a long time, Valentine Steel has hoped to meet a man who will love him. When he sees Dale on the train, he’s overjoyed to find a vacant seat beside Dale.

Dale’s immediate attraction to Valentine has him on edge. He doesn’t want another broken heart, and yet Valentine is so magnetic Dale’s frozen heart begins to thaw.

Valentine sets out to charm and capture Dale in his sparkling aura. He can’t let the chance to have Dale’s love slip away.

“Can I ask you … are you the passenger the train made the unscheduled stop for?”

Slowly, a smile spread across Valentine’s face. In an enigmatic way, he leaned forward and whispered as if he didn’t want anyone else to hear. “I don’t make a habit of it.”

Dale teased. “It’s unusual. You have to be some kind of VIP. Am I talking with aristocracy or maybe the CEO of Translines?” Dale smiled to soften the questions that unexpectedly didn’t sound teasing to his ears once spoken.

Valentine shrugged. “Neither. I came aboard looking for someone.”

Surprised by this, Dale couldn’t contain his question. “Did you find them?”

Valentine didn’t answer. He played with the handle of his coffee cup. With his gaze downcast and his dark hair falling over his forehead, there was an air of vulnerability about him.

The wish to comfort Valentine, gripped him hard, surprising Dale. Instinctively, Dale placed his hand over Valentine’s where he rested it by his still laden plate. Concern flooded him.

Valentine took Dale’s hand in his. He lifted his gaze to Dale’s face. “I hope so.”

A shock of sensation made Dale tremble. Time slowed. It was clear Valentine referred to him. Fear and desire mingled into a stomach churning mass.

Valentine held onto Dale’s hand and Dale closed his eyes briefly, as he allowed himself time to take stock and savor Valentine’s touch.

“You mean me … or, or, what do you mean?” He attempted to take his hand from Valentine’s gentle grasp.

Valentine loosed Dale’s hand. “Oh, nothing—it doesn’t matter. Should we pay the bill?”

The strange, intense moment had passed. Dale stood unhappily. “I’ll get it.” He went to the bar counter and paid for breakfast. The normality in the action settled his nerves. He glanced over his shoulder to see Valentine gazing out of the window. The man exuded sorrow. A pang of regret that he’d not held onto Valentine, maybe flirted more … stolen a kiss … something other than what he’d done, saddened him.

For #FridayReads #gayromance #scifi #horror Love in Danger @evernightpub #MMromance So what’s different in Love in Danger? The two main romantic heroes are already together as Love in Danger starts. They’re warrior partners and lovers.


 

Editorial review,

...Oh, I love this story…You have created such an interesting world and history for these people. Your villains are both alien and familiar, which makes them doubly horrifying.

Corin and Marcus are a great couple and it was so satisfying when Corin finally vocalized his love for Marcus...


Love in Danger, Sizzling and #action packed, #gayromance #scifi #thriller #horror

Centuries ago, the planet they cherished was conquered, but now three warriors from an ancient race of gifted beings intend to remedy that.

Lovers, handsome Corin JaKobi and gorgeous Marcus D’Ath are members of an elite planetary squad that rid the city sectors of the mysterious and dangerous Fallen.

When an old friend uncovers the true horrific nature of the elders in the organization they work for, anger at their duplicity drives Corin, Marcus, and rogue squadron hunter, Zeb to plan for the ruling group’s demise.

It won’t be easy, and when Marcus is captured and detained at the elders’ pleasure, Corin’s white-hot fury at the thought of losing the man he loves knows no bounds.

Will Corin get to his beloved, Marcus, in time to stop the horror that awaits him?

Can the warriors free the planet and return it to the lovely place it was before the aggressors arrived?

Be teased from Love in Danger

Marcus goes off alone ....

His helmet tech told him in the pleasant tones of their dwelling’s computer that the door had closed and locked behind him.

“Good morning, Marcus. Take care. Your dwelling is secure.”

Marcus grinned. He swooped over the Elite Hunter Squad Sector where he and Corin lived, made a sharp left into Sector Five, and then took his skybike higher to scan Sector Six and Seven from the air. He detected the weird shimmer of light that always surrounded a Freeloader three streets into Sector Seven, where the city’s population dwelt. Marcus pushed the switch that flicked his bike into stealth mode, which effectively rendered him invisible, too.

The Freeloader hovered a few yards away from two men who fought each other noisily, fists and saliva flying, as their blows connected with each other’s faces.

Marcus drove the skybike down to the alley where they fought. He locked his machine with the tether switch and silently slipped to the grubby, cobbled street.

Marcus loves Corin... 18+

He went down the few steps and as the water reached his waist, he lay back and floated. Above him, the night sky had darkened as the moons fell away below the horizons. Stars glistened in the blackness that would last for a couple of hours before dawn sped over the continent in its rapid way. Marcus stared through the tempered glass at the distant glittering planets. “Corin, have you ever wondered what it would be like to live on one of the other home worlds?”

Corin glided toward him leaving a wake of ripples in the pale green water. He bent and kissed Marcus with wet lips. “Like the ones in the legend?”

Marcus closed his eyes with pleasure at the feel of Corin’s mouth soft on his, then he brought his feet to the tiles and stood. “Well, not the banishment planet. Do you know what awaited Zeb?”

He stood in the deeper warm water chest to chest with Corin and gazed into the blue depths of his loved one’s eyes.

Corin heaved a sigh. “No. No, I don’t.”

Marcus pushed his arms around Corin’s neck and pressed his body to the muscled form of the man he loved. He dotted kisses over Corin’s lips and around his jaw, tracing more down Corin’s neck. He ran his fingers into his lover’s silken hair and sighed at the softness as he drifted his lips on Corin’s skin. Touching Corin, pulling him close, feeling his body against his own, set Marcus on fire with raw need, he swept one hand between their bodies and grasped Corin’s cock. The familiar, rock hard shape in his hand made his stomach clench. He brought his mouth back to Corin’s and kissed him hungrily.

Writing Love in Danger from E. D. Parr,

When I wrote Love in Danger, I wanted the story to have a completely different feel to my other stories.

Usually, my stories have the two main characters that are going to fall in love meeting in the first few chapters. Their meeting and falling in love is the story. There is always a happy ending, so often I will give readers a look at their future in a decision to stay together, marry, or a view of how happy they are after being committed partners for some time. I’m a big fan of love at first sight. Readers can blame it on Jane Austen, Shakespeare, and even Dickens to a certain extent.

So what’s different in Love in Danger? The two main romantic heroes are already together as Love in Danger starts. They’re warrior partners and lovers. They’ve been together for some time.

Writing this story with the heroes already in love gave me such pleasure, I might have to write another story where this is the case. (Smiles) The love between Corin and Marcus is obvious, but Corin can’t admit that he loves Marcus by saying the actual words, and that forms the romance ‘conflict’ within the story. This Sci-Fi story has horror themes, and adventure, including events that focus Corin on the need to tell Marcus besides showing him just how much he loves Marcus.

Marcus adores Corin and isn’t afraid to say so. He’s a sweetheart and it shows in how we see him assisting Corin.

Both heroes are special to me. Their origins and courage are epic. Their love is red hot and tender. I don’t know any authors who don’t fall in love with their characters. I always do, so I hope that readers love Corin and Marcus. I hope too, that readers enjoy the inclusion of another warrior in the story, Zeb, who used to be Corin’s lover. He’s a big part of the story without being part of the romance.

I hope readers enjoy Love in Danger, as much I loved writing it.
