More About the Author

I have been writing gay erotica for some years. I have had many short stories published both in the UK and US. My first published novel was Virgin Sailors but I wrote the Brad trilogy before that, which then became my Brad novel, and the biggest seller so far. These were published by Prowler Press along with Going Down, Riding the Big One, Run Naked Run Free and Skin.

I now have a new publisher, Lethe Press. I have three novels published with them, Brad, Spunky Sailor and Cowboys Can Fly.

Although my novels are highly erotic they will also make you laugh, cry, keep you in suspense and much more.

My new novel Cowboys Can Fly has just been completed and is a YA coming out love story set in the British countryside.

5.0 out of 5 stars A fascinating and horny novel, July 13, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Brad (Paperback)

An excellent story with loads of twists and turns, not to mention stacks of horny encounters. I just couldn't put it down! It was delightful to read an erotic novel with a real British feel and atmosphere, where characters and landscape have an equal importance. The sex is fantastic, real and in your face. The novel is the first I have read, where the qualities of the British Greats (novelists!), applies. In this novel, erotica is truly shown to be more than your standard f**k and s*ck which epitomises the typical gay novel which pervades our present times.

2.0 out of 5 stars Poorly Written, January 13, 2003

By A Customer

This review is from: Brad (Paperback)

This book does have some hot scenes, but it is just poorly written. It can be fun, but this is not a book I would recommend for a good read. There are many other books that are just as action packed where the authors actually have some skill.
