• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

First Crush picks up where Entwined leaves off. The strikingly handsome Italian vintner, Pepe, returns from his life-altering trip to the States and is determined to find a romantic partner. Having come out as a gay man and having sorted through his entangled affections for Patrick and Zeno, Pepe posts a profile on a dating app. Since this is a romantic series, he eventually finds mister right but not without complicated missteps along the way. Zeno and Patrick play matchmakers and help him navigate the complexities of gay life as he searches for someone who shares his interests in art, literature, and history, appreciates life in the countryside, and wants to start a family with kids. The fast-paced plot set along the breathtaking Amalfi Coast is tender and thoughtful as well as steamy and sensual. It celebrates the tug of eros toward the beautiful and the good and the transformative grace of same-sex love.

Autorenporträt

Michael Hartwig is a Boston and Provincetown-based author of LGBTQ fiction. Hartwig is an accomplished professor of religion and ethics as well as an established artist. His original oil paintings are represented by On Center Gallery in Provincetown.

Hartwig grew up in Dallas but spread his wings early on living in Rome for five years, moving to New England later, and then working in the area of educational travel to the Middle East and Europe.

His fiction weaves together his interest in LGBTQ studies, ethics, religion, art, languages, and travel. The books are set in international venues. They include rich local descriptions and are peppered with the local language. Characters grapple not only with their own gender and sexuality but with prevailing paradigms of sexuality and family in the world around them.

Hartwig has a facility for fast-paced plots that transport readers to other worlds. They are romantic and steamy as well as thoughtful and engaging. Hartwig imagines rich characters who are at crossroads in their lives. In many instances, these crossroads mirror cultural ones. There's plenty of sexual tension to keep readers on the edge of their seats, but the stories are enriched by broader considerations historical, cultural, and philosophical.
