Featured Story: Leaving Club Leo

Monday's are a great day, not so much as they are the start of a new week but because it's the day we look at one of the stories here at Gay Authors.

Featured Story: Two Of A Kind

This month I told Cia that I was stealing the March Signature Author Background because I decided it was time for the one who started it to be featured. I chose her story Two of a Kind since I love the Carthera series and it was a toss-up as to whether I liked Two of a Kind or Hypnosis better. If you haven't already read this series, I highly suggest it. To help you decide whether or not it's for you, here's a review, provided by Cannd. Two of a Kind Book 2 of Carthera Takeover Tales

This month, a shorter than usual one, I also went with a shorter story. JVaughn's Pierced is a solid read, for all it's only about 20k in length, that I really enjoyed.
