edit data

Jay Vaughn lives just an hour ferry ride away from sunny Seattle. She recently left her way-too-soul-sucking software management job. She is currently pretending like she's retired and is finally (finally!) dabbling in writing again.

Her favorite genres are sci-fi, fantasy, and M/M erotic romance. She discovered M/M quite by accident when she was writing a traditional fantasy novel, and one of her characters ended up in an all-male prison for a bit too long. Whoops!

Follow J. on Facebook (Jay Vaughn in Seattle), or drop her a line at jayvaughn@live.com. She’d love to hear from you.

4.5* This was one first MM romance novels I ever read, and I loved it. The sex is hot and the story is sweet. Just reread it and enjoyed it almost as much as the first time.

Damn! Another series in which I have some of the books, but can't buy this one because it's Kindle only and I don't do Kindle. I understand ... money! But don't you think Amazon is a bit too much of a monopoly with it's Kindle-only sales strategies? ...more
