Falling Off the Face of the Earth


J.F. Smith - 2011
    All he has left is his mother to help him heal and regain his confidence before he's ready to get back out and re-conquer the world.But being big-city gay in a small southern town has its own challenges. In addition to coming to grips with what happened in New York, his hometown of Lawder throws its own curveballs at him. James is confronted with a bitter enemy from his school days, and frustratingly can't seem to avoid the guy. His mother suddenly wants to expand the family. The one guy James takes a liking to and starts dating has a lot of hang-ups about being gay. And he watches almost helplessly as a new young bully starts to repeat the kind of abuse he suffered during his own school days.Here where he grew up, the one place he should feel safe, James feels maddeningly off-balance. He starts to think that maybe going home was a bad idea after all. Maybe he'd be better off moving on and really starting over, completely from scratch. Maybe he should walk away from Lawder, just like he walked away from his life in New York.But maybe, if he'd give it a chance, he'd re-think everything he ever thought he wanted out of life. And maybe what he thought was important, isn't so important after all. Maybe he could have everything he never realized he wanted, if he just looked around himself for a moment.

Frat Boy and Toppy


Anne Tenino - 2012
    But his own? Not so much. Take the gay thing. Okay, so yeah. It took a morning meeting with a frat brotherโ€™s hairy, naked ass for him to admit it, but he knows the truth about himself now. Let the gay life commence.Unfortunately, itโ€™s not that easy. He hasnโ€™t quite determined how to come out to anyone, even Sebastian, the geeky-hot TA in his history class. Sebastian is everything Brad is not. Intellectual, suave, hairy. Out. And he doesnโ€™t seem interested in Brad, even when Brad makes a fool of himself trying to catch his notice.Score one for foolery: Sebastian does more than notice Brad; he takes him to bed. Bradโ€™s been with plenty of girls, but with Sebastian, the sex is something else entirelyโ€”hot, mind-blowing, affirming, and a little domineering in a way that drives him wild. But when great sex turns into something moreโ€”dare he admit the โ€œLโ€ word?โ€”Brad must face the crushing realization that Sebastian doesnโ€™t feel the same. Unless, of course, he does. After all, even grad students can be idiots about matters of the heart.
