Many thanks to RJ Scott for donating an ebook copy of her forthcoming m/m romance, A Better Man (written with Jaime Reese), for a lucky commenter to win! A Better Man will be released by Silver Publishing on July 21.

Matthew Doner has been given a second chance. Fresh from a five year prison term he is given a bequest from an aunt on the promise that he uses the money to make things right. His challenge – create a safe place for people like him to find purpose and start a new life.

Julian Capeletti likes challenges. He is confident, brash, and just what Matthew needs. Hired as the contractor to renovate the crumbling house is the right job at the absolutely perfect time.

What neither man realizes is just how dangerous it is to keep secrets, and how hard it can be when you open your heart. Is one year enough time to renovate the house and build better men in the process?

About RJ

RJ Scott lives in the Chiltern hills just outside London, England. She loves reading anything from thrillers to sci-fi to horror; however, her first real love will always be the world of romance. Her goal is to write stories with a heart of romance, a troubled road to reach happiness, and more than a hint of happily ever after.

She is published with Silver Publishing an-d Dreamspinner Press and was nominated in the Love Romance Cafe Awards of 2010 as Best GLBTQ Author, for Best Gay Paranormal / Horror (Oracle) and as Best Paranormal Author. Oracle was also nominated for Best Gay Paranormal / Horror 2010 in Elisa Rolle’s Rainbow Awards and was awarded an Honorable Mention (5th). RJ’s contemporary romance, The Christmas Throwaway, remained at number one on Amazon and at All Romance over Christmas and into the New Year. She cannot believe how lucky 2010 was for her and her foray into the world of MM writing.

RJ writes across all the genres, but if pushed she says she enjoys writing contemporary romance over the rest. Her newest release, Back Home, has already received favourable reviews on the Silver site and on Goodreads.

You can find out more about RJ and her books at her website, on Facebook, and via Twitter.

About Jaime

Jaime Reese lives somewhere in the US. She loves the creative process of writing, just not about herself. Fiction is much more interesting 🙂 An avid fan of a happy ending, she believes those acquired with a little difficulty are more cherished. You can find out more about Jaime at her website.
