Blurb: 

Ian refuses to allow an explosive night of passion to derail his desire to make partner at the law firm. But, her tempting presence in the office, along with her alluring scent, mocks his resolve.

JD’s the hot art teacher with the body and stamina of a former professional hockey player. He’s a creative master, in and out of the bedroom, who captures the affection of the brilliant young attorney, but he second-guesses if he’s enough for her. 

Sasha won’t settle for less in her career or love life. It’s all or nothing. After a twist of fate and a proclamation of love, Sasha escapes choosing between Ian and JD. The alternative is far more arousing.

With careers in flux and hearts on the line, how will they all find the fortitude to come out on top?

Excerpt:

Ian started talking. Of course, he initiated control of the conversation just like he dominated legal negotiations. “We understand that you aren’t inclined to choose either one of us. We aren’t pressing you to do that now.” The tenderness in Ian’s voice and the concern in JD’s eyes alarmed her. 

Sasha’s chin began to quiver as a feeling of doom swept through her. Tears welled up in her eyes. “Are you both here for closure’s sake?” 

“Fuck no!” JD swore, clasping her hand more securely. “I have no desire to end things with you.” 

A tear slid down her cheek. Sasha started biting her lip. Did JD think she was going to choose him over Ian? Her head started to spin. Nausea brewed in her belly. 

Ian leaned in closer. “Neither of us wants to end things with you. Well, I suppose our case is a little different.” Ian extended an open hand. Her free hand itched to reach out and accept Ian’s offer. Uncertainty made her hesitate. 

“I’m totally confused.” Sasha looked back and forth between the two. Neither of their faces gave her a clue. What were they suggesting? 

Sun highlighting a colorful Penrose triangle

I have discussed previously how a Penrose triangle is a symbol of polyamorous relationships.

During Pride Month, I wanted to revisit this concept of polyamory as the practice is outside the traditional male-female monogamous relationship scheme. If asexuality can be included in LGBTQ (as I have seen on several occasions), then perhaps polyamory should be too.

Alternatively, Leanne Yau @polyphiliabog proposed in a previous Instagram post that, “Polyamory is a ‘queer-adjacent practice’…[while] not inherently queer in itself (see cheating/polygamy), but practi[c]ing it intentionally is a direct challenge to the cisheteropatriarchy.”

Reference to previous post … A Penrose triangle as a symbol of polyamorous relationships

The Penrose triangle is an optical illusion as it only occurs in two dimensions and not three.

I would argue it is more a perception of reality than a figment of one’s imagination. If unrealistic shapes can have a perception of reality, then avant-grade relationships shall have tantamount sustainability. 

My novels explore the authenticity of polyamory, consensual romantic relationships that involve more than two people. 

As an engineer, I like to analyze and test systems. As a lawyer, I like to argue alternative viewpoints. As a romance author, I like to explore a world of emotions.

Perfectly imperfect characters in Overruling Judgment

First review is in and it is a FIVE STAR REVIEW

As a debut author, getting five stars for my first review of my book baby is the greatest Mother’s Day gift I could ask for this year.
