M.L. Rhodes (born March 22)

Hi! I'm M.L. Rhodes and I predominantly write gay male romance and erotic romance. I've written some straight romance/erotic romance also, as well as books in other genres, but my focus now is entirely on gay romance because, quite frankly, I'm passionate about it! I love to write it and I love to read it.

I live in the foothills of the Rocky Mountains with my physicist husband, two teenage boys, two dogs, four cats, two hamsters, and dozens of fish.

I do all my writing on a MacBook Pro that travels around the house and, in warm weather, outside with me. In the summer my favorite place to write is on the swing on my deck surrounded by ponderosa pines and aspen trees.

In the winter, and often well into the spring, the outside writing forays aren't usually an option, since the deck is often buried under several feet of snow. It's not unusual for us to have snow like this well into April.

I've been writing for almost fifteen years. The first book I ever wrote and had published was a young adult novel. Since then I've had over two dozen novellas and novels published, with a dozen more in the works over the next couple of years. I never run out of story ideas, only out of time to write them all!

As the leader of an elite British group that hunts criminals of the magic world, Christian Wetherly comes to the U. S. undercover, posing as a British cop, to investigate a series of murders he suspects have been committed by a dark mage. He never expects, however, to find himself intensely attracted to the American police detective in charge of the case. Christian has long struggled with his hidden desires and hasn't admitted them to anyone. But Alec Anderson stirs something deep within him that's difficult to ignore.

Still...even if he could master his fear of coming out, Christian's dedicated himself to protecting the world from magic terrors. It's a dangerous life an ordinary human could never understand or accept. And to complicate matters, Alec's emotionally vulnerable, still grieving the death of his previous lover, a fellow cop killed in the line of duty. So Christian's determined to keep his true occupation and powers hidden from Alec.

Neither man can deny the powerful chemistry that burns between them, and both realize they're falling hard for one another, yet with so many secrets and complications, a relationship seems impossible.

When the two men becomes the target of the dark magic, however, and clues about an ancient legacy come to light that indicate Alec may not be exactly what he seems, can they find the strength to tear down all the barriers between them and risk their hearts in order to save each other's lives?

Falling was just about the first m/m book I read in paperback in 2007 or so when I was still unfamiliar with the concept of ebooks. It was a great introduction to m/m!

That was also one of the first book I bought, but for a reason or the other, I haven't read it yet. Want to do that though.
