Book Showcase: The Third Wife by @adammannauthor #EroticRomance #FlavoursofSage

Over 150 years ago, in fact in 1862, Mary Elizabeth Braddon published a book called Lady Audley’s Secret which went on the become a best seller at that time, and over the years the book has been serialized and films have been made based on this book.  The literary fashion in those days was accidental bigamy, and in the book the heroine deserts her child, pushes husband number one down a well, thinks about poisoning husband number two, and then sets fire to a hotel in which all her male acquaintances are residing.

In Adam’s novella a man whose middle name is by coincidence Audley is happily married with three daughters, and in his travels he stays in various small quest houses.  Over several years he is “seduced” by daughters in each house, and when each becomes pregnant he “marries” each of them.  Amazingly each of these wives is happy to have a part-time husband, and only one asks for child support.  The “scandal” does not become public until he loses his job, sues for unfair dismissal, and is awarded substantial damages.

Excerpt

When Roger arrived at the Guest House, he could see that they were trying to cram seven people into six beds, or that was what it looked like.

Alicia took him to the house next door, which although furnished was unoccupied, and took him to a room on the first floor.  He settled down and unpacked his overnight bag.

These Guest Houses never served dinner, so he walked along the road to a pub which served meals, and found Alicia’s other guests already there.  They asked Roger to join them, and they all laughed and chatted together.

“Alicia was kind in giving us her room,” said one, “so it just worked out.”

“She told us that she’s going to stay with a friend tonight,” said another, “but will be back to cook our breakfast in the morning,”

Roger was not really listening to this but he remembered later.

He walked back the house he was staying in, and opened the door.  Alicia was in the kitchen and offered to make him a cup of tea.

Roger sat down to enjoy the tea before going to his room.

“Good night,” he said as he stood and climbed the stairs to his room.

He dressed in his pyjamas, switched off the light and got into bed.  It was soft and warm and cozy, and for some strange reason smelled of Alicia.

About one hour later Alicia opened the door to his room and crept in to his bed.  She climbed in next to the sleeping Roger.  She wasn’t wearing too much, just a very short diaphanous nightie, and a determined grin.

In his sleep Roger sensed her presence and he moved to put his arm around her, so she wriggled her body under him.

He woke up suddenly.

“Alicia!” he was startled.

“Hold me tight, I’m cold,” she complained quietly…

RJ Jones - Cover Reveal for Indigo Road #GayRomance #FlavoursofSage

Two best friends take a year off to find themselves… and end up finding each other. Joshua Simpson has just finished four years at Purdue University, but that’s not why he’s buzzing with excitement.

Once they’ve said goodbye to their families, Josh and his best friend Alex are taking off to discover America in an old but reliable VW van, planning on not seeing snow for an entire year.

Josh has always considered himself straight—except for that one time in college—so when he and Alex are living in such close proximity on the road, he’s unsure what these new feelings mean. Is it because they’re spending 24/7 together, or is it something deeper? And does it really matter since

Josh has only ever seen Alex with women?

While in Oregon, Josh meets Johnno, a sexy but confusing Aussie surfer. While having an impromptu surfing lesson, Johnno helps Josh realize who he is and what he wants—but Alex’s reaction leaves Josh confused.

From a Montana ranch to the bright lights and dangerous streets of Los Angeles to a dark and lonely deserted highway in Alabama, join Josh and Alex as they drive around the US, discovering not only who they are, but who they can be together.

About the author

R.J. Jones started as a reader and eventually made the progression to reviewing. It wasn’t until two men popped into her thoughts, insisting on telling her their story that she started to write.
It started with one scene. A hot and dirty one in the shower…

R.J.’s initial thought was if she could write their scene then they’d shut up and allow her to concentrate on other aspects of her day. Not so. That shower scene ended up being 3000 words long and three hours of work.  And still, they didn’t shut up.  They told her their entire story and she didn’t sleep for days. Sometimes she couldn’t keep up with what they were telling her and she had to keep a notebook by her bed.

Whilst she was writing their story a side character decided he needed his story told too. Then other characters followed suit.

You see the problem? If she ever wants to sleep again then she needs to write.

R.J. is a wife and a mother to two boys. She is surrounded by males. Even her dog is a boy.

Sub-Dominant Blog Tour & #Giveaway November 13 - December11

Meet me and the boys from Sub-Dominant on the following blog stops and join the giveaway for your chance to win one of two prizes! 

New release: Sub-Dominant (Sub #4)

Putting a leash on a dominant sub is a task that may require two Doms to accomplish.

When relocation agent Eric Swann is assigned to ease young Connor Prescott into moving back to London, he expects the boy to be more enthusiastic—and less irritating.

Used to roaming freely among his mother’s D-list celebrity friends, Connor is anything but happy when his father decides to put him on a leash—a leash with a far too attractive handler on the other end. Secretly craving a man who knows how to yank his chain and show him exactly where the limits are, Connor does what he’s best at. He manipulates Eric into giving him what he wants, making the man reveal a side of him that Eric himself isn’t ready to accept.

Trained by one of the quirkiest Dom/sub-teams in the country, Dom Tyler Kane knows exactly how to handle a toppy sub. He keeps Connor on his toes, er, knees, in the bedroom, but when his capricious lover sets his heart on pushing yet another limit, Tyler finds himself not only with a dominant sub but also with a Dom who has yet to accept his true identity.
