Blurb:
Trevor is young, rich and single;
completely open and out about who he is, unwilling to hide it from anyone.
Cody is shy and inexperienced, exploring the desires he secretly craves to fulfill for the first time.
Unknowingly, they venture down a path which neither of them could have ever imagined.
Tell us a bit about Seduction in Red. What was your inspiration for this story?
I wanted Seduction In Red to be adventurous, fast paced and tight. I can remember growing up in the seventies and how different things are today. In a sense, I wanted to portray the characters as unabashedly open about who they were and what they expected of life. Life is always about the choices we make and the consequences of our actions.
What was challenging for you in writing this book?
I tend to write to plot as I try to weave a story with twists and turns. I also like to leave a few clues along the way, hidden messages of where the story might go. I find the hardest is to not reveal too much. I want the readers to stumble onto them.
What was easy about it?
The easiest part of writing for me personally is setting the tone for the book. I think every work should leave the readers questioning the whys and what if’s of their own lives. Hopefully when they are finished the book, they will have a better understanding of what it means to walk in someone else’s footsteps.
Where is your favorite place to write?
My favorite place to write is sitting outside by the pond listening to the waterfalls. If I am traveling I like to write scenes, capturing the mood of where I am at that particular time.
Do you create an outline for your books or follow the story as it comes to you?
I have an ending in mind when I begin to flesh out a new work. The characters are well defined as is the mood and the tone for the story. I let the story evolve as I write. Sometimes it is best to listen to the characters.
What is your secret (or not so secret!) vice?
I’ve given up most of my vices now. I relish in being outdoors in the raw, rugged splendor of nature.
What can we expect to see from you in the future?
My 3rd novel is about a transgendered cybil…of sorts. As with my previous novel, there will be love. I believe a truly great ending is one that leaves you surprised.
“I’m Trevor,” he said smiling broadly, stretching out his hand.
“Hi, I’m Cody,” I said shaking his hand.
He held my hand longer than I was used to and I gazed at the rings on his fingers and the bracelets on his wrists.
“How did you know what I was drinking?”
“I noticed you as soon as you walked in,” he said, seductively, smiling.
“Noticed me?”
“Yeah, I’ve never seen you before. You must be new.”
“Oh,” I half smiled back, “I’ve never been here before. It’s my first time.”
“Thought so,” he continued, in between swigging on his beer and checking me out.
“Huh?” I replied, leaning closer towards him, unable to hear him above the music.
“C’mon,” he shouted above the blaring disco music as he grabbed the beer bottles off of the bar, “follow me.”
He led me around the dance floor, to the back of the club where it was less noisy.
“Here,” he said sitting down, closely, next to me at a table, “This is better.”
“It is, I can hear you now.” I agreed.
“You’re really cute,” he started, “but you look really young. How old are you?”
“Just turned twenty one,” I stated proudly.
“Sweet,” he said grinning deviously, “but you look younger…”
“I get that a lot…” I replied.
“It’s cool, I’m twenty three. Not too old for you is it?”
“No idea yet,” I replied nervously.
“Can I ask you something?”
“Yeah,” I replied.
“Have you done anything yet?”
“Done anything?”
“Yeah, you known, been with another guy?”
“Oh, no. Not yet.”
“Hot. But you want to?”
“I’ve been thinking about it a lot lately.”
“Guess that’s why you’re here,” he chuckled.
“Yeah, I suppose so, I’m curious…”
“How about you?” I asked.
“Me?” he said proudly, “I’ve been out awhile. Can’t ya tell?”
I could actually. He had an air of confidence about him, secure in knowing who he was, not caring about what anyone else thought. He had long blonde hair and stunning blue eyes. He was almost androgynous looking. I couldn’t help but not look at him as I had followed him from the bar, gazing at his lean and slender body.
