BLURB:
A love of art...
A mutual interest in art draws two shy
university students together. Ben admires Vinnie’s painting of the university
building, so Vinnie invites him to an exhibition of his artwork. From a wealthy
family, Ben purchases some of Vinnie’s art and arranges for the artist to
personally hang the paintings in his apartment.
Starry, starry night...
Ben commissions Vinnie to paint his
portrait, in order to spend more time with the artist. On the night of the
sitting, Vinnie fingerpaints the starry night on Ben’s chest... and they kiss.
They begin a relationship beneath the night sky, God’s own canvas.
But every relationship has its ups and
downs and so it is with theirs. When Ben thinks Vinnie spends too much time
with a fellow artist, his jealousy drives a wedge between them and forces
Vinnie into the very thing Ben dreads.
Hold tight to your dreams...
Ben and Vinnie will have to walk through fire
before they can find one another again. But if they believe, and if they keep
their faith in the night sky and each other, just maybe they can make their
dreams of love come true.
EXCERPT:
Vinnie led me across the room, pulling me by the
shirt. “Lie back on the sofa for me and I'll paint you.”
As if in a dream, I settled my head against one arm of
the sofa, my legs dangling over the other end, scarcely breathing now. Vinnie
knelt on the floor beside me with an open pot of paint in his hand.
Teasingly, he dipped his index finger into the dark
blue paint as if it were cream he would lick off. His finger connected with my
skin and he made short strokes across my chest, the coldness of the paint making
me shiver.
Mesmerised by the closeness of his beautiful face, the
view of the night sky through the window, and the picture forming upon my
chest, I watched as dab after dab and stroke after stroke he built up a mix of
shades, until a dark night sky with the moon and stars were there to be seen—a
masterpiece, drying on the warmth of my blazing skin, a transient thing of
beauty. His fingers skimmed my skin causing gooseflesh to ripple in waves down
my arms and thighs. My nipples pebbled in response to his touch.
And when he was done, his lips met mine in a languid
kiss; how our first kiss should have been—sweet, innocent, and full of promise.
He pulled away, smiling down at me.
This was the beginning of something special.
LILY G. BLUNT’S BIO:
Lily G. Blunt writes
contemporary gay romance and erotica. She loves to explore the relationship
between two men and the intensity of their physical and emotional attraction.
Angst often features in her stories as she feels this demonstrates the depth of
the men’s feelings for each other. Lily is forever writing imaginary scenes and
plots in her head, but only a few ever make it to the page—there never seems to
be enough hours in the day despite having left the teaching profession to
concentrate on her writing!
Lily discovered the
wonderful world of m/m romance novels four years ago via fan fiction and went
on to write stories in her spare time. With the encouragement of her friends
and readers she decided to publish some of her work.
Lily has several
self-published stories available on Amazon. She is also published with Torquere
Press and Wayward Ink Publishing.
Easily distracted from
her writing, Lily makes videos using clips from gay-themed movies and posts
gorgeous pictures of men kissing or making out on her tumblr and Facebook
pages. Lily is also an avid supporter of GLBTQ rights and advocates equality
for all.
Lily lives in central
England with her rather bemused husband, two twenty-something children, and a
‘mad as a bag of frogs’ Shetland Sheepdog.
