From the Ashes
by Daisy
Harris
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
BLURB:
When
an accident burns down Jesse’s apartment, he’s left broke and homeless, with a
giant dog and a college schedule he can’t afford to maintain. And no family
who’s willing to take him in.
Lucky
for him, a sexy fireman offers him a place to stay. The drawback? The fireman’s
big Latino family lives next door, and they don’t know their son is gay.
Tomas’s
parents made their way in America with hard work and by accepting help when it
was offered, so he won’t let Jesse drop out of school just so he can afford a
place to live. Besides, Jesse’s the perfect roommate—funny, sweet and
breathtakingly cute. He climbs into Tomas’s bed and tugs at his heart. Until
Jesse starts pushing for more.
Their
passion enflames their bodies but threatens to crush Tomas’s family. Tomas is
willing to fight for Jesse, but after losing everything, Jesse isn’t sure he
can bear to risk his one remaining possession—his heart.
Warning:
Contains an angry older brother, judgmental best friends, a slobbering bull
mastiff, and enough red-hot gay loving to make a porn star blush.

Excerpt
Three:
Whimpering, Char tugged on the leash. She backed up and
barked to shoo the other dogs away. But then Sushi went around to sniff her
ass, and Char took the opportunity to return the favor. Suddenly, something was
decided between them, and they were sniffing all over each other, play
fighting.
It wasn’t much different than the couple clubs Jesse had
been to, except that men tended to wait until they were in private to lick one
another’s butts.
Only Chester hung back, batting with his paws. He seemed to want
to get in a couple sniffs but was thwarted by the more aggressive Sushi. With
his gray muzzle, he had the air of an old dog, one not up to wrestling with a
hundred- pound mastiff.
“I think I can let
her go.” Tomas struggled to get the collar off Chardonnay’s neck and set her
free.
Fur flew everywhere as the two dogs wrestled and grabbed and
yelped and growled, with Chester barking his loudest in the background. Jesse
stepped forward to stop them from hurting one another, but Tomas pushed him out
of the way.
“They’ll figure it out,” he said, close to Jesse’s ear. The
way he crowded him toward the door was exactly what Jesse liked. Jesse didn’t
have much experience—just that month and a half with Bobby, and a few hookups
since he’d moved to Seattle—but a guy advancing on him, pushing him into a wall
or onto a bed... Man, the rough-and-ready types really turned his knob.
“Um, yeah.” He’d forgotten what he and Tomas were
discussing.
A loud yelp sounded from the yard. “Aren’t you worried one
of them’ll get hurt?”
Tomas gave Jesse a smile so hot it could have melted paint
off the walls. “Nah. Sushi and Chester were strays. They’ve toughed it out
before.”

AUTHOR Bio and Links:
Birkenstock-wearing
glamour girl and mother of two by immaculate conception, Daisy Harris still
isn't sure if she writes erotica. Her romances start out innocently enough.
However, her characters behave like complete sluts. Much to Miss Harris's
dismay the sex tends to get completely out of hand.
She writes
about fantastical creatures and about young men getting their freak on, and
she's never missed an episode of The Walking Dead.

Thanks so much for hosting be today Erzabet! And thanks. readers for commenting!
ReplyDeleteMy kids are all over the fact that I'm an author, and especially that I write MM romance. They both believe passionately in gay rights. They do know, though, that my work is "inappropriate" for kids. They keep asking me to write a YA title that they can read, but sadly I don;t think I could handle two different online personas!
Nice excerpt
