Excerpt:
“Cole. I have a surprise for you. I want you to close your eyes and keep them closed until I tell you to open them.”
Cole looked up from his magazine at the doorway Perry’s voice drifted in from. He put the magazine on his nightstand and closed his eyes.
“They’re closed,” he called out. He wasn’t sure where Perry was in their apartment, but he sounded close.
Rustling and a strange squeaking noise reached his ears. Cole furrowed his brows trying to figure out what Perry was up to and what he was hearing.
“Okay. Go ahead and open your eyes.”
Cole popped his eyes open. He closed them and then re-opened them again. Nope, he still was seeing what was in front of him.
“Perry. Why is there--?”
Perry cut him off before Cole could finish his thought.
“So, we had talked about fantasies and things like that. I told you this was mine. So I’d like to introduce you to Freddy. Freddy, I’d like to introduce you to my boyfriend, Cole.”
Cole smiled at how nervous Perry was. His boyfriend was adorable trying to be brave with his ideas.
“Nice to meet you, um, Freddy. Perry, where did you meet Freddy?”
Perry had a small smile on his face that showed Cole he appreciated he was alright with what was happening.
“Online. I found Freddy on some website. Can’t remember the name now.”
Cole was stunned. His boyfriend didn’t go to those types of websites for any reason. Just meant Perry wanted to have the threesome and was willing to do it without asking one of their friends. Cole was so happy Perry had found a way to have his fantasy.

Amanda's Interview:
Why do you write m/m?
Mostly because it’s how the characters present themselves. I do have a few pieces of stories that are het romance that never got finished. I’ll probably finish them one day. But who knows how they’ll end up.
What author first inspired you to want to write?
The urge to write was always there. I didn’t write for a long time because some not nice things were said about my writing back in high school. I got the urge back after reading Twilight. Cliché, I know since so many people wrote fan faction of that book. I never did but I do have a decent start to a vampire story that I’ll probably finish one day. However my vampires don’t sparkle. That’s just weird.
What was your favorite subject in school?
I loved English, especially when we did some of the classics. I also loved Geometry and number system based math. Finding patterns, proving things, doing basic addition and subtraction in bases other than ten. THAT was all fun to me. Higher level math was not my friend though. Calculus can just go away.
If you weren't a writer what would your occupation be?
Same occupation I am when I’m not writing. I’d be a full time mom. I juggled being a stay at home mom and writing for a few years. Now that my little one is a bit older and goes to school full time I get to write more. If I magically stopped writing, I’d probably go back to focus on more mom related things. Like super awesome Pinterest art projects to do with my kid.
