Synopsis

Jayce Ellis's sexy, contemporary High Rise series features the bustle of DC and the hustle of love.

After a week filled with nonstop work, André Ellison heads to the club to blow off some steam. One night off is the perfect distraction from the project that’s about to make his career—or tank it completely. A few drinks in and he leaves with a
smoking-hot stranger for some scorching, burn-the-sheets-up sex.

Marcus Thompson is going places, so he can’t think of a bigger waste of time than being put on loan to a two-bit firm to prepare some small-time report. The last thing he wants—or needs—is his impeccably dressed, hot-as-hell one-night stand
as his boss.

As they work side by side, their attraction grows to a fever pitch, but there will be no kissing, no touching and absolutely no sex until the project is over—if they can wait that long.

At times shocking, especially if you're a middle-aged white straight woman like me, but then I need to shake it up a bit once in a while. I enjoyed about 90% of the stories - I think an exceptional statistic for any anthology. These are stories where the subject of homosexuality (male only) is a cen......more

Update June 2024: I have decided to not simply update but remove my original review and write a new one because I no longer think it is sufficient to say if this a good or bad collection of stories (it is in fact an excellent selection) but why in the second quarter of the 21st century it is not onl......more

Goodreads review by Leslie on February 18, 2011

An extremely good anthology of stories about gay men, from a wide range of authors, some you might expect (Yukio Mishima, Tennessee Williams, James Baldwin, Truman Capote) and some you might not (William Trevor, Alice Munro, Daphne du Maurier). Alberto Manguel is an expert anthologiser, mixing the f......more
