I want to welcome Theophilia
St. Claire First I’d love you to introduce yourself.
Hi! I'm Theo, author of M/M fiction and erotica. I live with
my amazing family in the South, and I love anime, TV shows, yaoi, cats, and
chocolate. In no particular order. I'm still relatively new to the publishing
world, and I'm looking forward to hitting some Best Seller lists.
Tell us about your
latest release.
My latest release, Three-Way
Weekend, is also my first solo release! It's gay ménage, and a very erotic
story about Jeremy and Ethan, a couple who want to try a threesome for the
first time. However, Jeremy isn't really into the idea until they meet Javier,
a sexy stranger from Spain. Jeremy becomes really conflicted because he lusts
after Javier, but he still can't let go of his beliefs about what he thinks infidelity
is. There's jealousy, insecurities, three sexy men, partying, and of course,
lots of sex.
Now I have a few
questions for you – I have found readers do like to know fun things about us
writers.
1.) Who is your
favorite villain – it can be from a book (even one of yours), movie or TV show.
And why?
Really tough question to answer. I've seen a lot of awesome
villains over the years, but as of late, I'm kind of obsessing over the Biskit
Twins from Littlest Pet Shop. They're just so incredibly nasty and mean, so
privileged, and literally think the whole world revolves around them. I love
the way they talk, and how fashionable they are when they're treating people
like the dirt beneath their heels. Let's just say that if I were a mean girl,
I'd want to be a Biskit.
2.) Who is your
favorite character out of your books? Why?
I love all my characters but Koji definitely takes favorite
spot right now. I'm currently working on the story he appears in, and he's so
desirable. He can have almost any man he wants on their knees. Koji is
confident to the point of arrogance, cool, and totally owns the fact he's a
"slut."
3.) What do genre do
you write? What made you pick that one?
I write gay erotica, mostly M/M. I have no clue why I
started writing in this genre. Ever since I was little, I've liked the idea of
two males together. Maybe it was the forbidden or taboo aspect of it. Now that
I think about it, it seems more appropriate to say the genre chose me.
4.) What are you
working on now?
I am working on an erotic story about sex, obsession, and
other questionable themes. And yes, it does include Koji.
5.) What got you to
start writing?
When I was eleven, one of my favorite shows didn't end the
way I wanted it to. So I decided to re-write the ending. I've loved writing
since. Only recently did I look into getting published.
6.) Where do you get
your ideas from?
Everywhere. Dreams, conversations I overhear, books I've
read, movies I've watched, songs I've listened to, or sometimes they just seem
to come to me out of nowhere.
7.) What would people
who read your work be surprised to find out about you?
Probably my age ;)
8.) Do you have any
special talents?
Not that I know of.
9.) What was the one
piece of advice you received when you were an aspiring author that has stuck
with you? Why?
"Write, write, write." Sometimes I procrastinate.
Sometimes, I even want to do other things and make excuses. But then I remember
that if I'm not writing, no one will ever read my stories.
10.) If you could talk
to any famous figure (present, past or fictional) who would it be and what
would you talk about?
Acheron Parthenopaeus from Sherrilyn Kenyon's Dark-Hunter
series. He's ancient and he knows everything, so we'd talk about life, history,
and I'd love to do a compare/contrast between living as a paranormal and living
as a human. He's also very easy on the eyes, too.
11.) What song would
you say describes your life?
Raul Ferrando - Yearning
12.) If you could come
back as any animal – what would it be?
A cat, for sure.
Title:
Three-Way
Weekend
Blurb:
Lovers Jeremy Taylor and Ethan Mercer are looking
for something different on Friday night—a complete stranger to take home for a
steamy ménage. Well, Ethan's looking. Jeremy isn't too fond of the idea. He
only agrees because it's what Ethan wants and Jeremy loves to please his lover.
When they spot Javier Cervantes, a sexy stranger
from Spain, even Jeremy finds him irresistible. But Jeremy will have to put
aside his feelings of jealousy and insecurity long enough to have a good time
and he's not sure he can.

Excerpt:
Midtown Miami's hottest venue, The Stage, was packed as usual on Friday
nights. A local band played reggae music while everyone jammed and swayed to
the beat. Jeremy and Ethan sat at the bar with chilled shots of Patron.
Fortunately, they had a great view of the band. The eclectic, but small bar had
minimal seating capacity. Those who arrived late sat outside.
"Hey, Jer, you're being watched."
Jeremy Taylor turned his head to look, only to be stopped by Ethan's
strong grip on his forearm.
His lover grinned. "Don't look. You're too obvious."
Jeremy sipped his drink, savoring the smooth liquid sliding down his
throat. "How do you expect me to check out the goods if I can't even
look?"
Huddled beneath the mood lights, they didn't need to yell over the band's
pumping music. Jeremy imagined how they looked--two tall, muscled guys in
leather jackets, close enough to kiss, and whispering as if sharing the world's
secrets.
The thought made him smile. Or maybe the alcohol had loosened him up. He
was already on his third shot of Patron.
"I'll tell you," Ethan said. His gray eyes gleamed with
mischief. "Tall, dark, and sexy. Long hair. Ethnic."
Jeremy frowned. "You sound like you're reading from a menu."
"I want him on my menu."
Ignoring Ethan, Jeremy turned to look. Across the room, on a plush, tan
couch next to graffiti art paintings, sat the poster man for his wet dreams.
Just like Ethan described: long, black hair cascaded past the newcomer's
shoulders, brushing smooth dark tanned skin. The man's muscles rippled beneath
tight, denim jeans, and a muscle shirt. The way he sat, with his legs spread
casually, showed off an impressive bulge. Jeremy's dick twitched as heat
flooded his groin.
"You can pick your jaw up off the floor, lover." Ethan's
mocking voice snapped him back to reality. "I take it you like?"
Hell, yes.
"Why did I let you talk me into this again?" Despite the
stranger's oozing attraction, Jeremy wasn't too gung-ho about this three-way
idea.
In his mind, cheating was cheating. Even if his lover happened to be on
the other side of the bed.
Jeremy had reluctantly agreed because he lived to please Ethan. And Ethan
always got his way.
Ethan downed another shot. "You're indulging me. You know a ménage
is my ultimate fantasy, and you're the conduit to making it a reality."
"I'm definitely indulging you," Jeremy said.
Ethan stood before him, close enough Jeremy could taste the sweetness of
his alcohol-laced breath. "Jer, you know I won't do this if you're not up
for it. And it's okay. I completely, absolutely, one-hundred and ten percent
understand why you wouldn't be."
Yeah, right. The moment he
refused to fulfill Ethan's fantasy, he'd make Jeremy regret it.
"Fuck it." Jeremy finished his shot in one gulp.
Ethan grinned. "Yes, let's. Though I think 'him' would fit better at
the end of that sentence."
The band switched to another song, a reggaeton number that got the crowd
on their feet dancing. Ethan glided through them, his body fluid while moving
along to the music. Jeremy followed, still uneasy about this whole thing. He'd
never picked up a random guy from a bar when he was single.
Doing it now with his monogamous lover of five years was awkward as shit.
Once they came to a stop at the sectioned-off couches, Jeremy's resolve
weakened.
"Mind if we sit here? Bar's kinda full," Ethan said.
The guy chuckled, staring up at them with dark, hooded eyes. He was
exotic with chiseled features and a killer smile. Jeremy wanted to feel those
teeth in his skin, hard enough to leave imprints.
"Please, sit," he said with a Spanish accent. Jeremy swallowed
hard. Ever since he'd studied abroad in Europe, he'd grown a thing for accents.
"I think we will. Won't we, Jeremy?"
Jeremy hesitated. He locked his baby blues on the pair of dark eyes
looking back at him. Jeremy wanted him. And he wasn't comfortable with that.
