I don't typically read adult erotica, but I'm open to it, so I took the chance to The Brick Yard by Carol Lynne. She's an international bestselling author of erotic romance fiction. In this particular book, Lucky, a young man working to hone his martial arts instincts, comes to terms with his sexuality. The book contains hope and disappointment, and is unique in that it's erotic fiction that looks at gay romance.
Carol
Lynne is acclaimed for her uplifting story lines and for conjuring
vivid, smoldering encounters. She is a master of whisking the reader
away with her stories and has recently released book 31 in the Cattle
Valley series, Snake Charmer. Carol
is also attending the biggest gay romance fiction event in the USA
during October. This year it lands in the windy city of Chicago and is
set to take the city by storm. Carol will be there not only promoting
her "proudest book to date" but as one of the organizers of the annual
event GayRomLit.
Excerpt from The Brick Yard
For Lucky Gunn, the hardest fight of his life happens outside the cage.
On the south side of Chicago sits an old gym called The Brick Yard. Ten
years ago, on a bitterly cold day, Lucky Gunn wandered into The Brick
Yard dressed in a threadbare jacket, looking for refuge. He hadn't
expected the owner, Tony Brick, to welcome him with a job and a place to
sleep when Lucky's abusive and drug addict mother made it too dangerous
to return home.
Dray
was a gay man living in a world of straight fighters. When his secret
was exposed to the media, he dropped out giving Lucky a piece of advice,
if you want to make it as a MMA fighter, bury the part of yourself that
won't be accepted.
Lucky
discovered the cage was the perfect place to keep his demons at bay,
but when he learns his trainer and mentor, Brick, is suffering from
end-stage cancer, he begins to spiral out of control. After eight years,
Dray returns to help Lucky and Brick deal with the devastating news.
With
Dray so close, Lucky's old desires return, and Dray teaches him more
than how to fight. Torn between his career and the passion he feels for
Dray, Lucky's past demons resurface in full force, threatening his
sanity and his budding relationship with Dray.
Despite
leaving the cage years earlier, Dray finds himself in the battle of his
life with the only man he's ever loved. Will he stand and fight or walk
away like he did years earlier?
