A chance encounter with an alluring American Music Producer suddenly turns Cha Min-Jun’s world upside down. And as the days go on, and he readies to perform his duty to his country, his mind is elsewhere, imagining how he could seduce the beautiful American girl.

Luisa “Seven” Fernandez is tired of having doors firmly shut in her face, so she packs up and goes to couch surf with her best friends in Seoul.

And it’s there that she inadvertently meets one of Kpop’s biggest stars in a bar’s bathroom in Itaewon.

For the happy-go-lucky, quick-witted, no strings attached, Seven, meeting Min-Jun can’t come at a worse time. Not sure where her professional life is going, and seeing as not much is happening in Seoul, Seven makes a drastic decision that affects them both.

 

While Min-Jun and Seven try to come to terms with events that bind them together, they also have to race against the clock before Min-Jun’s fans turn on him as news of his current not so single status is splashed across Social Media. Will the secrets that unite them help their budding relationship flourish, or will it all be for nothing?


Excerpt:

Min-Jun kept his eyes closed as he listened to the soulful voice filling the air around him. The song, which Ha-Yoon had played for weeks on end, was so different in the demo stage. It made him feel like this was the
first time he had listened to it. He started to hum along to the melody before he sang.

“And then after the rain is gone, I’ll still be here, still undone, waiting for you to take me home.” He sang softly, harmonizing with her voice.

“You have a really nice voice.” Seven said, keeping her eyes on him.

“So do you.” He replied, letting his eyes take in her features.

Seven tucked her hair behind her ear and then shifted as she lifted her right hand to skip the song, and Min-Jun took her hand in his before she could.

“This is the best part.” He said in a husky voice, thinking that the song was talking to him, making him believe useless thoughts.

“Mine too.” Seven agreed as the violin, and the piano dueted together as the song reached its climax.

“But you’ll never come ‘round, you’ll never take me in your arms. You’ll just leave me on the ground because all you do is make me
cry.”
  Seven’s voice on the demo sang as Min-Jun sang alone.

“This is so much better than Dissonant Anonymous’ s version.”
He told her when the song finished, and Seven shrugged. It was clear that she didn’t take compliments well.

“That’s very kind of you.”

“I would like to listen to the other songs.”

Something changed in her eyes, and she pulled away, making Min-Jun feel extremely conscious then. He wondered as she pulled the phone closer to her if he’d come off as a creep.

“I should try and see if there’s service.”

“There’s none.” He said, pointing at the screen on her phone.

“I should just leave then.” She said, standing up as Min-Jun frowned.

“I didn’t know I was coming on too strong.” He half-joked, feeling guilty.

“It’s not that.” She said, looking at him and then scratching the back of her neck. A sigh fell from her lips. “I don’t – I date, but I’ve not dated in a long while, and I don’t do one-night stands.” She said, and then her cheeks flushed.

A smile played on Min-Jun’s lip, and he nodded. She clearly showed her character, so he didn’t think badly about her.

“I don’t do one-night stands either. Though I would make an exception tonight.”

Sometimes love is defined by fear.

Blurb  Colin and Joshua’s love had seen them through every trial. Every step taken together had strengthened their faith in each other. Every problem solved, every obstacle overcome, had deepened their commitment to the life they shared. Colin had passed the bar and was now an Attorney-at-law. Joshua had added a second PHD to his resume. The future looked bright. What could possibly go wrong? And then:  Three students are abducted from the University of Virginia campus and Colin’s position as an Assistant Commonwealth’s Attorney puts him at the center of the investigation. The abusive and volatile husband of one of Joshua’s patients threatens his life. Entangled in both these life-threatening situations, Colin struggles to protect both the university he loves and the man he adores. Warning: This novel discusses sensitive material which may be distressing to some readers. Relevant Law explores themes of domestic abuse, physical violence, abduction, and non-graphic sexual assault.

About the Author 

 My name is Janice Jarrell. I am a retired grandmother who lives in Seattle, WA.  I have two children and three grandsons. I’ve been writing gay romance since I was twelve years old, only back then it wasn’t called ‘gay romance’. In fact, it had no name at all. It was the fifty’s, and it was worth your life to admit to being gay, let alone confess to being a girl who constantly fantasized about relationships between gay men. Hell, I didn’t even know what a homosexual was. I lived on a farm out in the sticks in a tiny Michigan village and I’d never, to my knowledge, even heard the word. I just knew I loved the thought of boy-on-boy romance. I just knew that there was something hot going on between Tom Corbett and his Space Cadets and all those guys on ‘Combat’.

I wrote slash fanfiction for 30 years, writing over 337 stories, some as short as 100 words (a drabble), some as long as a series which was over 119,012 words. I enjoy writing my stories. I enjoyed the feedback I received from my readers. It was a creative release I’d been searching for my entire life and I blessed the Internet for leading me to this artistic oasis for my spirit.

Love’s Magic was my very first step into writing my own characters. I will always be grateful to the slash fanfiction community for nurturing the budding author until she was ready to blossom into a fully realized novelist. It’s been an amazing thing to watch the gay community’s growth over these past twenty years. My own journey has echoed theirs in many ways, and I’m grateful to all those gay activists who fought to give the gay community the rights and privileges they always deserved. Love’s Trials, Love’s Glory, and Love’s Lawyer were the second and third, and forth books in the series and all four books are available in audio format on Audible.

I’m also grateful to the gay romance community, readers, authors, publishers and promoters, who are making these, my retirement years, the most creative ones of my life. When I’m not writing, I’m traveling, walking, hiking, knitting, crocheting, and weaving.

I’m very excited about the upcoming release of my fifth contemporary gay romance novel, Relevant Law. Those of you who fell in love with Joshua and Colin in the four previous books in this series are in for a bit of angst in this latest episode. A dark and sinister cloud hangs over the University of Virginia after three students are abducted, raped and beaten. Colin works with both campus and city police to catch the perpetrator, but his hard work and effort proves futile when Joshua turns up missing!

Despite their struggles there are still many passionate, loving moments and the friends they treasure will be there to help them find their way.

About the Author:

lc son author photoWife of one. Mom of three plus a Beagle.

Well, at least that’s how I’m described in the confines of my everyday life.

​Writing has always been second nature to me. I spent my childhood creating short stories and my collegiate years writing for the campus paper (Go TERPS!) Jump twenty years to the present–I’m still writing. At my day job I spend most of my time writing capability briefs, white papers, proposals–you name it.

Then one day it hit me! It was time to access my own creative power and bring to life the characters I’ve created in my mind.

In addition to enjoying life with my amazing family, I can usually be found with my head in a book, binging my favorite shows, and watching movies with jaw-dropping scores! (I love all things Danny Elfman!)
