Multi-published author J.D. Walker brings you four gay erotic romances that will warm your heart, from the quirky story which pits a country music fan against a "metal boy" to the bittersweet tale of a rigid CFO who always says the wrong thing to the man he loves. Housemates, secrets, a sunny attitude, and an executive who needs to let loose all connect to bring each other out of the Heavy Metal Blues. Contains the stories: Heavy Metal Cowboy Blues: Lester "Les" McCoy loves his country music. He's also in lust with Damien Ridley -- the 'metal boy' who lives downstairs -- despite his very loud music tastes which drive Les crazy! He's an old prairie bachelor, and thinks Damien is too young for him. But, a gay-bashing and some friendly advice lead Les to use Patsy Cline and canary yellow underpants to get the stud he's always wanted. Heavy Metal Bicycle Blues: Kenny Culpepper is a spin instructor, but he used to do more with his life. He’s still recovering from the homophobic attack by his former roommate, Biff Tremonte, and when he receives a letter from Biff’s brother, Kenny’s not sure what to do. But the two men meet, and Cypher Tremonte confesses that he was also a victim of Biff’s rage. What they find together is unexpected, and could become love. Heavy Metal Sunshine Blues: Sonny Bonhomie is happy to sleep with Noah Stiles, a sexy guy he meets at a club. But then he finds out that Noah has a boyfriend, and confronts him about it. Worse, Noah tells Sonny the real reason he slept with him in the first place. Heartbroken, Sonny goes to a new LGBT bookstore and runs into Bruce, a bartender he knows. They hit it off, and Sonny’s sunshine blues might just be over. Heavy Metal Heartfelt Blues: Bridges Barfield is a stern, rigid man who’s hard to please. But then he meets Trenton LeDoux, he of the magenta hair, lip ring, and free spirit, and they hit it off. Trenton seems to be stuck in the past with his dead husband, however. Bridges tries to help, but suffers from saying-the-wrong-thing disease. It takes many missteps before these men finally have a union that’s truly heartfelt.

Heavy Metal Blues Box Set

Saturday afternoon, I decided to go the gym where I took spin classes during the week. I ran on the treadmill for half an hour as I watched Damien, one of the trainers, guiding a patron through her routine.


Metallica played in the background. I remembered Kenny telling me once that Damien was a die-hard, old school heavy metal fan. I didn’t mind it, myself. I just had to be in the mood. When I was done with my routine, I cleaned up and stopped by the front desk.


“How’s it going, Kenny?” I asked.


He smiled. “Great. I have a fifty-mile bike race tomorrow. Should be a blast.” Kenny was a bike nut, aside from the classes he taught.


“I’m sure you’ll do fine. How’s Cypher?”


“Fantastic.” That kind of smile would inspire me to move mountains for my boyfriend, if I had one.


“Happy to hear it.” I adjusted my bag strap. “I’m gonna go. See you next week.”


“Hey, you okay? I don’t ever see you on the weekends.”
