He\u2019s always short of money, and when biotech startup PharmaTek reduces funding for his fellowship, he\u2019s tempted to take a job at a men\u2019s dining club as a serving boy. The uniforms are skimpy, and he\u2019s expected to remove an item of clothing after each course. He can handle that, but he soon discovers there\u2019s more on the menu here than fine cuisine. How far will he go to pay his tuition, and will money get in the way when he realizes he\u2019s interested in more from one of his gentlemen?<\/h3>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3>Brice Martin is an attorney for a Silicon Valley venture capital firm. When he\u2019s asked to take a client to the infamous Dinner Club, he finds himself unexpectedly turned on by the atmosphere and especially by his server, Remy. He senses there\u2019s more to the sexy young man than meets the eye. The paradox fascinates him, and he can\u2019t get enough of Remy.<\/h3>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3>Their relationship quickly extends beyond the club and sex. But the trust and affection they\u2019ve worked to achieve may crumble when Jeremy discovers Brice\u2019s VC firm is the one that pulled the plug on PharmaTek\u2014and Jeremy\u2019s research grant.<\/h3>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2>Excerpt<\/h2>\n<p>Jeremy had to set out earlier to get to the city Wednesday night. Without a bike he was forced to use the campus shuttle to BART and arrived at the club\u2019s staff dressing room with barely enough time for a quick shower. Three guys from his previous shift were here: Kit, Rand, and a slim Asian guy named Law\u2014short for Lawrence.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHiya, my tasty macaron, nice to see you back again.\u201d Kit gave Jeremy a European-style double kiss, though the second one landed on his mouth and not on his cheek. \u201cHave fun last time?\u201d He asked with innuendo dripping from each word.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cFun enough.\u201d Jeremy grinned and gave the other boys a wave. \u201cWhat\u2019s with Kit and the bakery talk?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOh, he\u2019s on a diet and can\u2019t eat any of that. It\u2019s the only way he can handle the deprivation.\u201d Rand shook his head. \u201cAnyway, glad you\u2019re back,\u201d Rand said and introduced Jeremy to the two boys he didn\u2019t already know.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cTonight\u2019s costume theme is sailor boys.\u201d Thomas handed out costumes. They were all variations of blue and white, with caps and blue or white shorts. He had a handful of sailor scarves in different colors, but he held onto those. \u201cNeed to get the assignments first. You\u2019ll get a scarf to match your gentleman.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Jeremy went to one of the stations and slipped into his: tiny white shorts, a sleeveless white shirt with buttons down the front, and a little white cloth cap. He practiced sitting in the tight white shorts so he could find the most comfortable way and not risk pain and damage to his balls. Kit noticed and came over.<\/p>\n<p>He cupped Jeremy\u2019s dick through the tight, thin fabric, then gave Jeremy another wholly unnecessary squeeze. \u201cTo get you started.\u201d He winked and went back to fixing his own costume.<\/p>\n<p>Thomas came in and took the scarves from Rand. \u201cWe had to switch a few boys around. Here\u2019s your assignment.\u201d He handed out the first four scarves, still holding a sky blue one and the green one as he approached Jeremy. He gave Jeremy the blue scarf.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHang on. I thought I\u2019d be getting Mr. Green again.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Thomas looked at Jeremy head-on. \u201cSorry, Mr. Green asked for someone else tonight. I double-checked because I thought you two worked out well last time.\u201d He spoke softly, but the others could see which scarf he had been given. It was obvious what had happened. Kit looked away.<\/p>\n<p>Jeremy\u2019s stomach felt like it sank through the floor and kept going. \u201cDidn\u2019t he like me?\u201d He whispered the question, ashamed to have his rejection so public, despite Thomas\u2019s obvious attempt to spare his feelings.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYes, he did. But he wanted variety. We can discuss this in private later if you want.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Jeremy blinked. Why did he take this so personally? This was supposed to just be a job for quick easy cash, not a matchmaking service.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/bit.ly\/dsp-dirty1\">Order eBook at Dreamspinner<\/a><\/span> |<span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"> <a href=\"http:\/\/bit.ly\/dsp-dirty2\">Order Paperback <\/a><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/bit.ly\/aredirty\">Order at All Romance<\/a><\/h3>\n<p><strong> <a id=\"rcwidget_5mtma6cl\" class=\"rcptr\" href=\"http:\/\/www.rafflecopter.com\/rafl\/display\/af7f84bf1\/\" rel=\"nofollow\" data-raflid=\"af7f84bf1\" data-theme=\"classic\" data-template=\"\">a Rafflecopter giveaway<\/a><script src=\"\/\/widget-prime.rafflecopter.com\/launch.js\"><\/script><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2>About the Author<\/h2>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/bit.ly\/amz-eml9\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft  wp-image-3891\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.emlynley.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/10\/EM-at-GRL-book-signing.jpg?resize=212%2C363\" alt=\"EM at GRL book signing\" width=\"212\" height=\"363\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.emlynley.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/10\/EM-at-GRL-book-signing.jpg?w=344 344w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.emlynley.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/10\/EM-at-GRL-book-signing.jpg?resize=87%2C150 87w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.emlynley.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/10\/EM-at-GRL-book-signing.jpg?resize=175%2C300 175w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 212px) 100vw, 212px\" \/><\/a>EM Lynley writes gay erotic romance. She loves books where the hero gets the guy and the loving is 11 on a scale of 10. A Rainbow Award winner and EPIC finalist, EM has worked in high finance, high tech, and in the wine industry, though she&#8217;d rather be writing hot, romantic man-on-man action. She spent 10 years as an economist and financial analyst, including a year as a White House Staff Economist, but only because all the intern positions were filled. Tired of boring herself and others with dry business reports and articles, her creative muse is back and naughtier than ever.
