A Darker Shade of Oxford Blue - Set in Oxford, England, this sensual novel charts the developing relationship between Ethan Evans and Jason Birney—from their first encounter at the airport until Jason returns to the States three weeks later. The chapters are filled with a mixture of drama and angst as well as many sexually explicit scenes as the two young men become friends and lovers. Ethan is successful in his business life, but has been unlucky in love. This changes the moment he meets Jason—who has been asked to be a guest lecturer at Oxford University—and as they spend their first weekend sightseeing around Oxford, it is obvious the two are destined to be together. As they get to know each other, it becomes apparent that they went to the same school for a short while and now live in the same city. Ethan cannot recall seeing Jason before, but as the story progresses, Ethan realizes their meeting in Oxford may not be a coincidence after all.
