An epic motion picture! A gay Napoleonic War love story! Ballrooms and battles at sea! Romantic happy endings on the silver screen! And a film that’ll change everything for its stars ... Jason Mirelli can’t play adrenaline-fueled action heroes forever. He’s getting older, plus the action star parts have grown a little thinner since he came out as bisexual. This role could finally let him be seen as a serious dramatic actor, and he needs it to go well -- for his career, and because he’s fallen in love with the story and the chance to tell it. The first problem? He’ll be playing a ship’s captain ... and he hasn’t exactly mentioned his fear of water. The second problem? His co-star: award-winning, overly talkative, annoyingly adorable -- and openly gay – box office idol Colby Kent. Colby’s always loved the novel this film’s based on, and he leapt at the chance to adapt it, now that he has the money and reputation to make it happen. But scars and secrets from his past make filming a love story difficult ... until Jason takes his hand and wakes up all his buried desires. Jason could be everything Colby’s ever wanted: generous and kind, a fantastic partner on set, not to mention those heroic muscles. But Colby just can’t take that chance ... or can he? As their characters fall in love and fight a war, Colby and Jason find themselves falling, too ... and facing the return of their own past demons. But together they just might win ... and write their own love story.

Seaworthy

Colby scooped up and neatly folded his clothing. Apparently blithely unaware of exactly how tiny his swimsuit was. How little it covered. How royal blue hugged his hips and framed those long legs and drew attention to his smooth skin and his lean muscle and his slim waist and that extremely impressivebulge under clinging material—


Jason wanted to shove him flat on the pool deck and taste him everywhere.


That delicious skin. Those tiny pert nipples. That complete tease of girth and length under the fucking preposterous barely-even-a-swimsuit. Colby hadto know how he looked, right? No one bought a swimsuit like that if the point wasn’t to show off


Colby Kent probably did. Colby Kent probably had looked at himself while shopping, thought something along the lines of, oh, I do like blue!and then gone about his day, unconscious of the future havoc left in his wake.
