all-house-pubbed, bi-sexual Regency romance by Bella Ann Herendeen that blew me away. I thought it deserved to be seen by more folks, so I talked it up. I'm so pleased to say that Ann's getting her due and she's back to visit with us again, now pubbed with a major house. Please offer Ann your warmest -- and I mean warmest -- "Yeah, I think reading about gay guys in love having wicked good sex is damn hawt, too" Bella buongiorno...From Ann: Why are the hottest men gay? Have you ever
fantasized about a gay guy trying bisexuality-just once-with you? "Phyllida and the Brotherhood of Philander," (out now from HarperCollins) my m/m/f Regency romantic comedy, is for all us women who want that unattainable man.
One of the great things about writing a historical romance is the kinds of plots you can use that would be...unlikely in a contemporary story. With Phyllida, set in 1812 London, I bring my reluctant hero and wary heroine together in a marriage of convenience.
Andrew Carrington is tall, dark, handsome, wealthy, heir to a title-and gay. Ph
yllida Lewis is pretty, sexy, clever, an "authoress" of gothic novels-and poor.
Andrew needs an heir the old-fashioned way-marriage to a woman. But he refuses to change his lifestyle. Phyllida would like very much not to be poor, and to be free to write. And when she meets Andrew, drop-dead gorgeous and masterfully masculine, she
knows she'd rather have him, just as he is, than a lesser, if heterosexual, man.
What could possibly go wrong? Well, for starters, Andrew, sexually experienced and extremely "active"-with men-is clueless about women. He finds himself falling in love with his bride but lacks the skill to satisfy her. And when he meets blond, blue-eyed, hunky Matthew Thornby at a society ball-wham-bam!-it's a ménage just waiting to happen. Or is it?
What's your idea of an unattainable man? What would you put up with in order to have him? Does it count as sacrifice if you enjoy it, the way Phyllida likes seeing her sexy husband making out with his handsome boyfriends?
