He hesitated for a moment, watching the older man with uncomfortable intensity, then reached for Jason and brushed a single tear from his cheek. For Jason, the touch was electric, and his physical response unexpected.“Bach always touches my soul,” Jules half whispered. His fingers still rested against Jason’s cheek. “He must have known great love, and great pain, to write something so powerful.” Jason realized that his own pain must be showing on his face, because Jules, too, looked sad.'I’ve never been religious,” Jules said, his eyes never leaving Jason’s, “but I played this piece in a tiny church once. It was like God was there with me, speaking through me.”When Jason remained silent, Jules leaned forward and kissed him lightly on the lips. At a loss to explain the intense emotional and sexual response of his own body and equally unable to stop himself, Jasonreached for Jules and returned the kiss. The younger man’s lips tasted of wine and musk, and Jason realized that he was hungry for more.","author":"Shira Anthony","tags":["gay","gay-romance","glbt","m-m","m-m-romance"],"id":26493,"author_id":"Shira+Anthony"},{"text":"They had kissed so often in lust, in passion, but never like this.This felt like a renewal, a pledge… A beginning.","author":"J.C.

He wrapped his arms around his neck to steady himself, two big hands reaching up to hold onto his arms as if to offer extra support. “You,” he began, talking quietly into his ear, “are so beautiful,” he confessed, resting his heavy skull against Cormag's for a moment.He meant it as well. Cormag was stunning. He was taller and broader than he was, very much the fine figure of hotness. His dark hair was well kept, but a little messy, he had amazing bone structure; the type that made him look more like a model than a museum manager. A chiselled jaw, nicely defined cheekbones and a rugged quality thatmade him so appealing. He had never noticed how handsome a male face could be until those eyes drew him in.“And so are you,” his companion chuckled, “but we discussed this…I've ruined every relationship I've ever had. I get needy, possessive and my baggage gets in the way.Besides,” he lowered his voice to a whisper and brushed his hand over his upper arm, “You're not gay,” he protested, reminding him yet again that they were different.“Nope. Not gay,” he agreed with that, nodding his head as he pulled back a little to see him better. “But that doesn't make you any less beautiful. Why is it wrong that I can see how special you are?” he asked, having difficulty understanding why part of his brainwas telling him he was being a drunken idiot and that the man before him wasn'tattractive. But the rest of his brain – about ninety-eight percent of it – was telling him that he was the most attractive person he'd ever seen.“It's not, Lachlan. It really isn't.”“But it's somehow wrong for me to tell you?” Lachlan wondered, glancing across the bar to see Matteo smiling at him. He didn't know what it meant.Cormag cupped his face, capturing his undivided attention again. “No. Not thateither. But it makes it hard for me to keep my distance. You're stunning. Inside and out,” he claimed, with chocolatey eyes that said he meant every word.","author":"Elaine White","tags":["coming-of-age","gay","lgbt","love","m-m","novel","romance","scottish","story"],"id":62274,"author_id":"Elaine+White"},{"text":"It was real sweet, except that he'd drugged me and ridden me to within an inch of my life, and I was still so high I was paralyzed and mute. But other than that, I guess it was pretty romantic.","author":"Jordan Castillo Price","tags":["gay","m-m","vampire"],"id":67589,"author_id":"Jordan+Castillo+Price"},{"text":"If you’re trying to reassure me, don’t make it sound like you want to eat me.” Tarn leaned in farther, letting the long twists of his hair fall to brush Gard’s cheek. Then he murmured, putting a little growl into it, “I do want to eat you. I like the way you taste.","author":"Amy Rae Durreson","tags":["dragons","elementals","fantasy","m-m"],"id":71523,"author_id":"Amy+Rae+Durreson"},{"text":"Getting caught is what I do best. It is either a natural talent (which means we can blame my family genes) or a well-hewn craft (in which case we can still blame my parents).","author":"Wynn Wagner","tags":["m-m","paranormal","vampires"],"id":81287,"author_id":"Wynn+Wagner"},{"text":"Do you like my brother?' And there goes Dan's confidence. He keeps his eyes resolutely on the field. 'Uh... Yes? I mean... I think everyone likes your brother, don't they?' She leans over and gives him a little hip check. 'No, you know what I mean. Do you /like/ him?' Dan just states out at the horses, hoping that one of them will do something, anything, to distract this girl from her question. But the horses just keep grazing and Tat continues. ''Cause he likes you. I mean, he likes Jeff, too, but... You can like two people at once, right?' 'Uh... Yes? I think you can like two people at once.' 'Yeah. I know it's none of my business or whatever, but... I just wanted to make sure you know... If you like him, that's cool with me. I mean, I like Jeff too, but... You know.' Dan has a brief moment of wanting to shake her. No, he /doesn't/ know. Is everything really so clear to everyone but him? Is he just adding extra complications where they don't need to be? Then he remembers that he's talking to a fifteen-year-old girl. Maybe she shouldn't be the arbiter of what's simple or complicated. He realizes that she's still waiting for a response from him. 'Okay, well... Thanks for letting me know.' 'Are you guys going to, like... Date?'Sweet Jesus, Tat, I don't know!' Possibly that's a bit of an overreaction, but she looks more amused than upset. 'All right, all right....' She gets a mischievous look in her eyes.","author":"Kate Sherwood","tags":["awkward","dating","family","funny","gay","m-m","m-m-m","romance","silly"],"id":114615,"author_id":"Kate+Sherwood"},{"text":"So he slips his head off of Jeff's shoulder and slides out from under Evan's Armand shuffles down to the bottom of the bed. It doesn't have a lot of dignity this part of their sleeping arrangement. He's complained about this before but Jeff just nodded, and Evan had kissed the back of his neck, and they'd both snuggled in a little tighter, pinning him in the middle even more effectively than before.","author":"Kate Sherwood","tags":["cuddle","funny","gay","m-m","m-m-m","polyamory","romance","sleep","sweet"],"id":123095,"author_id":"Kate+Sherwood"},{"text":"Cormag caught his hand and pulled him back until they were facing each other. “I think you're amazing,” he said, blurting the words out.Lachlan smiled, completely shocked and thrilled by how captivating he found him.He had never thought this could happen to him, that he would be attracted to another boy.He thought he knew himself so well.“I think you're smart, sexy, funny as hell. You have hidden depths, Lachlan. You only need the right person to coax you out of your protective shell,” he claimed.“Are you the right person?” Lachlan wondered, as he took a half step forward.Cormag took a deep breath and brushed at a strand of hair that was sticking out at a funny angle from behind the top of his ear.
