#SomethingLikeFate

by Marco May

Santiago writes gay romance with tasteful erotic scenes, and a weekly series on WordPress titled "Something Like Fate." He meets a friendly new fan in the comment section of his latest blog post, a reviewer of hardcore gay erotica with kinky and taboo themes. At first Santiago is turned off by the vulgar reviews, questionable themes, and porn retweets that make the reviewer seem like an oversexed horndog. Santiago's a Christian with traditional morals, and he prefers sex scenes to be implied and not explicit. However, he realizes he shouldn't judge and decides to give the reviewer a chance.

They start chatting privately on Twitter and connect so well, Santiago is intrigued by this mysterious man named Gary. Their newfound connection quickly evolves into a long-distance friendship, which then becomes something that causes their feelings for each other to grow more intensely than they’re prepared for in a matter of days.

During a steamy video chat, Gary reveals he lives a kinky lifestyle as a Dominant, and only a submissive can satisfy his relationship needs. He won't have it any other way. Santiago wonders if he wants to ignore his morals and get involved in a Dominant/submissive relationship. Can they make it work? Is Santiago willing to change his life for someone he barely knows?

About the author

I'm an author of gay romance and erotica (college, kink, and age gaps). I’ve been writing fiction for many years, and I find it to be a strong passion that can’t compare to any other interest I have. I started writing erotic fiction secretly at a young age after I’d already been drawing homoerotic content for a while. I wrote plenty of it and took a long hiatus to focus on my non-erotic works.

I tried getting back into it in January 2015, again in the fall of that year, and once again in the spring of 2016, but I just wasn’t inspired anymore. It wasn’t until April 2017 when it hit me naturally with my first picfic, “Touchlessly Touched”. I continued with more picfics and new stories, and I took writing erotic fiction to a more dedicated level.

I started with Wattpad as a testing ground, and I’ve done great on there. I managed to write my biggest hit at the time with The Hookups of Hickeyhook Hall, along with my second-biggest hit, Tamely Told. My third release, an anthology of picfics titled Passionately Pictured, did even better.

I still write non-erotic fiction, but I don’t mix them under the same pen name.
