Here are the details on the book:
Six Black is in over his head.
And he’s not sure he wants to come up for air.
After a sheltered upbringing with an oppressive family, he’s not ready for adult life. He’s not ready for the world outside. And he’s definitely not ready for the clandestine nightclub known only as Blossom & Bite—or the strange, scarred man he meets there.
Senzou Ueda.
When Blossom & Bite specializes in matching displaced young men with wealthy older “patrons,” it’s not hard to guess what Senzou wants when he invites Six into his home. Yet there’s more to this arrangement than Senzou would ever tell, and while each night Six sleeps alone…he finds himself falling more and more beneath this mysterious, black-eyed behemoth’s quiet spell.
Especially when he discovers…
Senzou Ueda is the architect of Six’s darkest desires.
Every hunger. Every longing. Every breathless, twisted curiosity that lives inside Six was born of Senzou’s macabrely erotic art, and the more he learns of the man, the fantasy, the story behind battle scars and delicate tattoos…
…the more Six craves.
Cut free from his tethers, Six is awakening from a fragile, frightened boy into a creature of insatiable passions—and neither he nor Senzou can resist the temptation of illicit desires. In each other, they find the answer to unspoken, forbidden needs. In each other, they find kindred spirits. In each other…they find something broken. Something beautiful.
But the love building between them has a time limit, and it’s counting down—to the day when Six learns the truth. The real reason Senzou came for him. The hidden hand pulling both their strings…
…and the secret of the black tattoo.
And here’s the cover, designed by the author himself!
Still not quite convinced? Here’s a short excerpt!
***
“Please, Mr. Ueda…Senzou.”
Six said his name as though rolling chocolate on his tongue, and the iron core of heat in Senzou’s gut threatened to melt. Slowly, every movement so shy and furtive he trembled like the wings of a moth ready to take flight, Six tilted his head to one side, the soft shag of his hair drifting across his brow in shining platinum strands, silver eyes lowered and glimmering like mercury through the thick black forest of his lashes. Yet it was Six’s throat that caught Senzou’s attention—Six’s bared, unmarked throat, long and slender and fluttering with the timpani of his pulse beating, beating, beating against that frail, translucent skin. The delicate line of his jaw, too, a sharp and sloping thing guarding the vulnerable, sensitive places beneath, places that begged to be bitten, tasted, marked until they were painted in artistry of bruises, blood, teeth-marks that demanded flesh and lust and more.
And that more coiled tight through Senzou as, shivering like a willow lathe in the wind, flushed pink against pale skin, Six closed his eyes and whispered so sweetly, so trustingly…
“…teach me.”
