J.J. Massa is the first author who introduced me to Male/male erotic fiction. I honestly never thought it would be something I’d enjoy, but I did. THE EDGE is that first story I read, and she’s now re-releasing it. While I am not a constant buyer of M/M, I do enjoy it every now and then, and THE EDGE was the book that got me hooked. Take a peak!!
THE EDGE by J.J. Massa
Detective Paytah has spent his entire life fighting to overcome ignorance and gain acceptance in a world too quick to judge. Always willing to take on any challenge, the tough-as-nails Native American has never shied away from the truth. Until he meets Tyler Baker, that is.
Tyler represents everything that Paytah hates; the blond haired blue-eyed gay detective with a penchant for bending the rules was born with a silver spoon in his mouth and a champagne glass in his hand.
When Paytah is assigned to work with Tyler he anticipates that the partnership will be difficult. After all, working high profile serial murder cases are always challenging. But, as the case of the decade unravels, so does his ability to control his attraction and to deny his own needs.
This book by J.J. Massa has it all—passion, desire, intrigue, and an unforgettable ending that promises to take you to The Edge.
For an excerpt…READ ON!
Excerpt:
Without even realizing he was going to do it, Paytah reached forward and carded his fingers through the gold curls that had intrigued him so. Soft. It’s so soft. A cross between dandelion petals and kitten fur he decided, shaking his head ruefully at his own foolishness.
Still, right in front of him was a half naked man whose rosy pink skin gilded with white gold—he was right there, Paytah could touch him, quench his curiosity, and the other man would never know. He drew one finger over the smooth cheek down to his jaw and felt the light rasp of new stubble that he couldn’t see. Tyler smiled and turned his head toward the stroking finger. Paytah paused, waiting to see if his partner would wake. Although the little smile stayed in place, he stayed quiet.
Slowly, Paytah drew his hand down to Tyler’s clavicle and felt the velvety hair lightly furring his pectoral muscles. Carefully, he drew his splayed fingers down to a flat male nipple.
“Mmm, ‘essss,” Tyler hissed, arching forward just a little.
Paytah froze again. Tyler’s eyes remained closed, but he had definitely said something…on purpose.
“Like this?” Paytah murmured, moving his fingers toward the tiny pink circle.
Tyler’s breath caught. “Ahhh,” he moaned, squirming just a little.
As Paytah skimmed the nipple with the pad of one finger, it peaked and grew rigid. He raked his fingers across to the other nipple and lightly caressed it, watching it firm and tighten. To his surprise, he had to adjust himself. His cock had hardened at his new discovery and was becoming painful.
He glanced at the drugged man’s face when Tyler groaned and licked his lips. His eyes were flickering though he appeared to be nodding. Looking down again, Paytah skimmed Tyler’s ribs with one hand, avoiding the bruises and scrapes. Continuing, he trailed the fingers of the other hand down over the young man’s abdomen following the thin strip of soft hair down to his waistband.
