I love military heroes, both real and fictional. I guess that’s not surprising, considering most of the men in my family served in the military during war time. My dad was a Marine, my husband served on a battleship in the Navy, and my son plans to join the military next year. All of my uncles and most of my brothers-in-law served in the Navy, and claim those years were among the best of their lives. A few say they wished…

–CONTEST ALERT!– As a straight, long-time married woman, I confess I’ve never had a yen to read male/male erotic romances, nor the inclination to write them.
