Openly erotic and smart, the stories of Best Gay Romance deliver hope and happy endings.

Dale Chase’s “The Early Show” describes the tantalizing flirtation of two writers who share an eccentric habit of showing up early to Sunday matinees to enjoy the promising half-dark of the theater. S.J. Frost’s “No More Mirages” is a tale of romantic destiny set in a dojo, an oasis of bamboo, white mats, and stone sculptures where an actor, bitter from his last break-up, finds himself drawn to a charismatic sensei. And in Rob Rosen’s wonderfully funny “Nudie Blues,” a romance writer discovers a hole in his backyard fence and the hunky new neighbor behind it.

In these sexy, satisfying tales, boy gets boy – and keeps him – despite pesky ex-lovers, cops in pursuit or whatever other obstacles he must face first.

Miles Y. ★★★★★

Dale Chase's "The Early Show" alone was worth it — two writers flirting over their weird shared habit had me grinning on the train. Smart, genuinely erotic, and it actually ends hopeful instead of bleak.

Andrew V. ★★★★★

The heat in these stories is balanced with real emotional payoff, and Dale Chase’s piece captures that flirtation so well you can feel the tension on the page. I finished it in one sitting, genuinely smiling at the happy ending.

Chloe ★★★★★

The story about two writers with that quirky shared habit felt refreshingly original, and the whole collection balanced erotic heat with genuinely clever writing.
