This weekend for Rainbow Snippets, I’m snipping from my upcoming story, An Unlikely Alliance, released on May 4th. This Regency MMM novella is published concurrently with two other stories, The Hunting Box by Alexandra Caluen and As Many Stars by K.L. Noone.
These three stories are published separately and also together as Regency Lovers Trio stories for the JMS Books Trio story submission call. They are available at Amazon, and other outlets and are currently in the 20% off pre-release/new release sale at JMS Books until May 10th.
Authors who take part in Rainbow Snippets each weekend are encouraged to post six or so lines from one of their stories on their blog and then link back to the group post on Facebook. I always enjoy joining in with Rainbow Snippets, especially to read and comment on everyone else’s choice of snippet.
An Unlikely Alliance takes place in Regency London where three very different men meet and act on their attraction. In this snippet, we have two out of three of my MCs, Clement Metcalf, a private secretary and Abe Pengelly, an almost reformed criminal who deals in the trading of information.
This snippet is from Clem’s point of view, introducing us to his associate, friend and lover Abe.

Last summer, when in dire straits and in need of ready cash, Clem had been directed towards Abe and had never regretted making the connection.
Abe put down his pen and blew on the paper to dry the ink. Only then did he focus on his visitor.
His eyes, so dark brown to be almost black, were full of sharp intelligence, one of the reasons why Clem repeatedly turned to Abe for their intercourse in all its forms.
“What do you have for me today?”
Abe smiled, transforming his face from grim to attractive.
