Many thanks to Marie Sexton for donating a copy of her forthcoming m/m romance, Strawberries for Dessert! Strawberries for Dessert, about two of the characters from Promises, A to Z, and The Letter Z, will be released on August 6 by Dreamspinner Press.
When Jonathan Kechter agrees to a blind date with Cole Fenton, he expects nothing more than dinner and a one-night stand… but he gets more than he bargained for in Cole. Cole is arrogant, flamboyant, and definitely not Jon’s type. Still, when Cole suggests an arrangement of getting together for casual sex whenever they’re both in town, Jon readily agrees.
Their arrangement may be casual, but Jonathan soon learns that when it comes to Cole Fenton, nothing is easy. Between Cole’s fear of intimacy and his wandering lifestyle, Jonathan wonders if their relationship may be doomed from the start – but the more Cole pushes him away, the more determined Jon is to make it work.

About Marie
Marie Sexton was always good at the technical aspects of writing but never had any ideas for stories. After graduating from Colorado State University, she worked for eleven years at an OB/GYN clinic. She quit the clinic at about the same time she started reading M/M romances. At some point in the ensuing months the static in her head cleared and her first story, Promises, was born.
Marie lives in Colorado. She’s a fan of just about anything that involves muscular young men piling on top of each other. In particular, she loves the Denver Broncos and enjoys going to the games with her husband. Marie has one daughter, two cats, and one dog, all of whom seem bent on destroying what remains of her sanity. She loves them anyway.
You can learn more about Marie and her books at her website.

Ooh, yummy!
Ah, birds. Mayhem’s reaction (and Saru-chan’s) always reminds me of Blue Rose, a gaming book, which had a picture of cats with wings. I shudder to think of all of the trouble they could get into if they could fly!

Just be glad the bird didn’t fall down the chimney just to come play with Mayhem. That causes a big mess. (And don’t ask me how I know.)
