Mia Watts, my m/m gateway drug of choice!
Mia and I spent three hours on Rodeo Beach, picking through tiny pebbles, searching for semi-precious stones. We found, among other things, jade, carnelian, shark teeth, polished beach glass…I don’t know the identity of most of the stones. Some are quartz. She took a bag home with her as souvenirs.
Rodeo Beach is my favorite beach in the area, not because it’s all warm and sunny and you can swim. This is not Los Angeles. The water is icy, the waves rough, the currents, rip tides and undertow make swimming or surfing dangerous at best. Besides, the waters off Rodeo Beach are part of the Great White Triangle. Scary!
Nah, we just had fun, sifting through mounds of pebbles, waiting for that one bright and shining little tiny translucent treasure to pop up out of the blue.
So…why do I enjoy reading Mia’s m/m romances? The reading experience is a little like finding that one round rose-red carnelian. Her stories give me the same little jolt of excitement
I’m not an m/m of reader, yet the men in Mia’s romances appeal to me. They tug at my heart in the same way Ennis Del Mar did in Brokeback Mountain. I want them for myself.
Mia’s men are not the only treasure. Mia, herself, is precious. She’s a joy to be with - read her books! In fact, read more books in general. Books are good for you!
News: Over the next week, I’ll be slaving over edits - because you all want books three and four of Daughters of Persephone to be released on September 8 and believe me, so do I! I’ll post as often as I can.
I’m still over at Book Lovers Inc. - head on over! You can win a copy of Daughters of Persephone!
