Rainbow Snippet 30th April/1st May


 

 
Rainbow Snippets is a Facebook Group that invites authors to post six sentences of their work each weekend. It can be from anything you like, your current WIP, a recent release, the golden oldie that even you had forgotten you had written, or just a scrap of an idea (as long as it has six coherent sentences). Nothing of your own work worth mentioning? How about a six sentence review of your favourite LGBTQ+ story.


 This week’s snippet comes from A Bell Rings again. You can now get it on early download from Pride Publishing or pre-order from Amazon and it is out on general release from 10th May. This is the sequel to Not Every Time. Jack wakes up and has no memory of his partner Raziel, but when he finds a new person to share his flat, there is something familiar and unsettling about the man. This scene follows last week’s snippet.
 

Half a dozen times that night, he nearly told Kay what had happened. But every time he opened his mouth, nothing came out. He had no idea what to say. ‘Oh, by the way, I snogged Raz last night, and this morning, I stared at his cock and imagined myself down on my knees. Oh, and yes, I’ve been dreaming about having sex with a man with blue eyes, and now I’m ninety-nine percent certain it’s Raz.’ Kay wouldn’t think he’d lost his marbles, would she? That sounded sane now, didn’t it?

 


 Story Blurb

 

Raziel Slade and Jack Hastings have been best friends since Raz saved Jack’s life twelve years ago. Only Jack doesn’t remember Raz at all, and he certainly doesn’t remember falling in love with him. Jack has explicit dreams begin of a blue-eyed male stranger. Needing a new flatmate after his best friend moves out, Jack is introduced to Raziel Slade who has extraordinary blue eyes, and Jack has no idea how to cope with his attraction to the man.

Raziel Slade has a secret—he used to be an angel. He fell in love with Jack Hastings many years ago, and happily became human, but the angels aren’t prepared to let him go. All Raz wants to do is return to his lover any way he can, but there are rules.

When a film brings back Jack’s memories, the question is will he feel the same, especially when he finds out what Raz gave up for him? And are the angels finally ready to let Raziel, the Keeper of Secrets, go? 

Publisher's Note: This book is a sequel to Not Every Time.

  1. Makes me want to see Kay's reaction if/when Jack tells her about that. :-)

  2. Hope Kay's worthy of his trust if he confides in her.

    1. Raz can't tell him so somehow he has to find out and decide for himself. Angels have rules.
