Two Chicks Obsessed with Books & Eye Candy

Sharing our love of M/M Romance

The Heights by Amy Aislin: Exclusive Guest Post, Blog Tour and Giveaway

September 19, 2018 by Denise

Twenty-one years ago, a four-year old child was kidnapped from his front yard. He was never found. Until now.

All Nat Walker wants is to make his late father’s dream of running a father/son woodworking shop come true. And he had the perfect building in mind—until the new guy in town came in and bought the place right out from under him. The fact that the new guy is adorable means nothing. For all Nat cares, he can take his new dance studio and waltz back to New York City.

Professional dancer Quinn Carroll couldn’t be happier that he made the move to the small town of Lakeshore, Oregon. Sure, it’s not New York, but now he’ll be living closer to his adoptive brother. And since his studio will be the only one in the area, he should get enough business to keep him busy. Besides, there’s something about this place that seems familiar…

He doesn’t expect to fall hard for the local, grumpy woodworker who won’t even smile at him.

Or find out that his entire life is a lie.

Thank you for joining me to celebrate the release of my newest m/m contemporary romance, The Heights, and thank you to Two Chicks Obsessed for having me! Today I’m sharing a sexy excerpt. Check it out below!

Yes.

Yes, yes, yes.

Had Quinn known that all he needed to do was bait Nat into kissing him, he would’ve done it weeks ago.

This was no soft, tentative first kiss. Nat’s mouth was hard on his. Demanding. Combative even, daring Quinn on.

Oh, it was on.

The music changed from Thirty Seconds to Mars to “Sail” by AWOLNATION. It thrummed in his veins, made his pulse beat as he attempted to climb Nat’s body. Nat cupped his butt and hoisted him up to sit on the counter. Their eyes met, briefly, heat and lust and anger clashing before their mouths met again.

Bad idea. This was such a bad idea. It’d no doubt fuck up their friendship, especially since Quinn was sure Nat was only doing this out of pity or maybe out of some protective need to stop Quinn from having a one-night stand. Whatever the reason, things would end badly between them.

But Nat’s tongue was in his mouth and Nat’s hands were yanking Quinn’s shirt up, bunching it under Quinn’s armpits. Quinn’s legs tightened around Nat’s hips, hands up the back of Nat’s sweater to trail over warm, naked skin.

Yeah, Quinn didn’t particularly give a shit about good idea versus bad. Only that this was happening, it was happening now, and the only way he’d put a stop to it was if a bomb went off.

And maybe not even then.

Pity fuck or not, he was all in.

He gave Nat a push, sending him into the fridge behind him. Fridge magnets fell, clattering onto the floor. Nat’s mouth quirked up on one side and he stripped out of his sweater, eyes locked on Quinn. After the sweater came the T-shirt. Quinn ran his gaze over Nat’s bared chest as Nat took a step back. Another.

Quinn slid off the counter and followed, breathing hard, blood rushing south. He wanted his hands on all that skin and reached out for Nat’s cock, outlined by Nat’s jeans. But Nat kept his pace steady, heading for the bedroom, Quinn shadowing him step for step less than two feet behind. He tore his own shirt off, dropping it onto the floor.

In the bedroom, they came together with a crash, teeth clacking and biting, hands fighting for dominance. Nat picked him up and threw him on the bed, coming down on top of him in the next instant.

I hope you enjoyed this sneak peek of The Heights. The Heights comes out tomorrow, September 20, and is available for pre-order at Amazon, iBooks, B&N, and Kobo.

Two Chicks Obsessed with Books and Eye Candy
Every November by Bec BensonMy reviewIf you've ever moved away from your hometown and returned for holidays, you will totally understand some of the feelings in this book. Thanksgiving- especially the night before Thanksgiving- is always a big one for seeing people. People are home, they want to see friends before family obligations the next day and you see a million people at the local bar. Some people love it, some hate it. And with Evan and Marcus we get both.Marcus hates going home but does it out of some sort of twisted loyalty in his head. The black sheep of the family who moved away to the city, has a job that he hates and who seemingly never does anything right. Evan, on the other hand also moved away, but he loves his job and he loves coming home to see his adoring family for the holidays.They meet in the bar, have a quick hook up and that's the end of that. But it isn't.They run into each other again the next year. And the quick hook up is a bit longer.And the following year.And as much as Marcus hates going home and dealing with his family, he looks forward to seeing Evan again. But one terrible conversation with his parents causes Marcus to spiral into a deep depressive episode and he cuts off communication with Evan.I was impressed with the portrayal of depression in this book. It gets glossed over, joked about, and "cured" way too easily usually. But Marcus' fight with depression felt so real. Because even when you are doing well, it's there, lurking, just looking for a reason to take over. And once it has it's claws in you, it's really hard to break free. No matter how much you want to.And Evan tried to help. He really did. But there's only so much you can do. The only thing I didn't like was Evan being upset/mad at Marcus. But I tried to remember that most people don't know what depression truly entails.I enjoyed this unique story and obviously the portrayal of mental illness. I was very glad to see them get their happily ever after.4 Pieces of Eye Candy ...
