The Tower by Chris Owen
Jun. 18th, 2007 01:54 pm
Jasper is excited. He has got a promotion and a new office. The first morning he is waiting the elevator to his new office when, from the CEO personal elevator come out Mr. Nero, the CEO's personal assistant and quite without words, he takes Jasper up to the 35 five floor, the CEO's floor.Michael Nero was a 40 years man, handsome and reserved. And really during that lift, he doesn't say much, unless subtly asks about Jasper's personal life. But then a gift, a late night phone, a warm smile in the corridor... all contribute to make Jasper dream about this man and how his name, Mick, will sound on his lips during love.
A short and interested tale, about a office affair with a open question: Jaspet will be like all the other employees, men and women, that in the last 40 years have made that same ride in that elevator?
The story is very short and I can't really have a strong opinion on Jasper and Michael. Michael is a very sober man, very controlled with other people, but not cold. He is warm with Jasper in every public situation, and very hot in the intimacy. Jasper is less sure but not uneasy with Michael, and he can quietly admit his attraction for this man.

But now one of his horses, Lady, needs cure, and he decides to stop to a rom gathering.He is welcomed by Lightfood, a young rom. From the first moment they meet, both Urs than Lightfood feel attraction and they simple decide to share some happy moments before Urs take the road again. But an old fortune teller says they maybe are fated to stay together and so, the young rom will decide to join Urs on his travel?
Urs is the classical big man with a big body and also a big heart. He is gentle with everyone, men and animals. He respects the elders and is gentle with the kids the women. But he is a vagabond soul and he will not be happy to restrain himself. Light food is open and friendly, and he knows what he wants: he wants Urs, even if only for one night. He knows the road law and knows better to try to cage a bear.
A short story with two interesting characters. Maybe worthy to develop a little more: I will be interested in reading more about this two.

Couple Seeks Friendship by Rob Knight
Jun. 18th, 2007 10:55 pm
Kell is writing a reportage about swinging couple and decides to answer to an ad in a specialized magazine. Ricky and Justin are the couple who has put the ad. Justin is a carpenter, open, clever and gentle. Ricky is a scholar, shy and loving. And they love each other, a lot. Why a couple like this wants to risk what they have?Kell doesn't understand: he can easily feels envy for both of them, they have someything special, something he really wants for him. But he can't imagine, once he has a love like this, that he can share it with someone else. But Ricky has dreamed about him, and this is the reason of the ad. It's not something they do frequently, it is the first time, and Justin has agreed to satisfy his lover's dream.
And so the wooing starts. Ricky and Justin work together to break the defences of Kell.
Justin is absolutely the leading character of this threesome. He is confident and complete, he has a big enough heart for both of them. Ricky leans on him for everything. But Ricky is tender and cute. Kell is more like Ricky than Justin, and if Justin wouldn't be a so strong character this threesome couldn't work well as it does.
A brief but very well plotted novel, with a suddenly swift (the swinging couple that become a love shelter for Kell) that keeps the reader's interest from the beginning.
