reviews_and_ramblingsChris Quinton is one of those Gay Romance authors who is always balanced and good, I read 3 books by her and always found them perfect. And if she manages to convince James Anson, the wonderful author of The Larton Chronicles, to write more, she will become my hero. In any case, she launched a new epublishing company in May, and they have already four books out, I read one and hope to read the other three soon: as I was expecting, the quality of the one I read was above the average and I think also the others will be the same. Please browse their website and discover their books.

"For those who didn't catch our advance publicity, we are a new semi-pro e-publishing concern based in the UK. We're starting small, with only four titles on our first list, but we hope to add another four with our second list (on 1 November 2010) and more at regular intervals thereafter.
Our primary output will be male-male or female-female romances with plot - mystery, adventure etc. - set either in the present or the historical past or in alternate versions of them, and often with a supernatural twist. If you like your e-books the way you like your coffee - whether short and dark, hot and steamy or rich and indulgent - you will find something to your taste here.
Come on in, relax among friends and enjoy our wide variety of same-sex fiction, guaranteed to spice up your day - and all for the price of a couple of cups of designer coffee. It's not only better for your health, it's good for the environment too!"
ALOES by Chris Quinton
A fluke accident puts Perry in a coma. When he awakes, his scrambled synapses have given him a talent; he can tell truth from lies simply by their flavour. This, plus the new client who is far too attractive for Perry's peace of mind, the client's contentious family and the dilapidated old mansion Perry has to restore for him - not to mention anonymous threats which escalate to attempted murder - all ensure that Perry's life will never be the same again!

DEAR MISTER PRESIDENT by Adam Fitzroy
When USAF Colonel Chad Ryan accepts a new job on the White House staff he is soon making friends with the First Family - and with charismatic and troubled President Douglas Ford Kearney himself. They have scarcely begun to explore their feelings for one another, however, when it becomes apparent that their relationship is under threat from enemies both within and without. As world events look certain to drive them apart, can Chad and Doug find a way of holding on to their happiness - and can there be any chance of a future for them together?

END OF THE TRAIL by Jane Elliot
Will Connors is struggling to hold together a failing farm; his wife has died, his son has gone, he's not without enemies and he's dealing with the after-effects of a debilitating accident. It's a life of toil which doesn't allow for very much pleasure, and he's in danger of becoming embittered until a chance acquaintance wanders back into his life and everything begins to change. The problem, however, is that John Anderson has a price on his head - and, very soon, Will and John find themselves desperately concealing more than one dangerous secret.

SEA CHANGE by Chris Quinton
Injured on duty and no longer fit for active service, soon-to-be-ex-Coast Guard Bran Kaulana is drifting, filling his days helping out at the Wai Ola Rescue Center, one of Honolulu's wildlife charities. He's working with the new veterinary, Steve, a man drawn to O'ahu by his fascination with dolphins. As their friendship slowly deepens into love, the two men are caught up in the mystery of injured seals and dolphins, a ruthless gang of smugglers and a not-so-dormant undersea lava vent.
