[Siren Everlasting Classic ManLove: Erotic Alternative Fantasy Cowboy Romance, M/M, gods]
When his fast and loose lifestyle finally catches up with him, Archer finds himself in hot water with the Gods of Chaos. Cursed by an irresistible charm that leaves men panting and pawing at him sounded like a dream come true, but Archer soon finds himself trapped in a nightmare. Levi Dawson lived a lonely but content life in his little hometown. When Archer Neilson walked into his bar for a drink, Levi knew he had to have him. Rescuing the smaller man from the town troublemakers wasn’t how he’d have planned their first meeting, nor did he imagine himself inviting the man to live with him. Doubting he can tame his lust and change his wicked ways in just thirty days, Archer has no issues falling into bed with the cowboy. Falling in love was a whole other story, though, and it was never supposed to happen.

4 STARS: "What's a bad boy to do with 30 days of lust? DANCE WITH THE DEVIL, the second in the Gods of Chaos series, was quite the change from the first book. This one didn't have the humor and seemed sad and made the chance for redemption that much more important. Pathos is a God of Chaos and he is going to teach Archer about lust and the trouble it brings. Archer needs to learn a little humility. All his life he has used his body and good looks to get what he wanted. Never really caring about anyone else, he uses and discards people left and right. When he pushes his wants a little too far and tries to force someone, Pathos steps in to facilitate his punishment. If three months locked in a room reliving every bad thing he had ever done in his life didn't break him, having every man he comes in contact with lust after him might. Levi doesn't know what to think when Archer walks into his bar and every man there starts to hit on him. He thought he was the only gay man in Beggs, OK. Then when he has to rescue Archer from three men in the parking lot who can't seem to take no for an answer, he is pretty sure everyone has lost their minds. He understands why he is hard for the man, but what is up with everyone else? Even after Levi learns about Archer's curse, he doesn't turn away from the man, but after being hurt by everyone else in his life Archer isn't sure he can trust Levi. I wasn't sure I could like Archer's character after what he did in the first book, but once again I should never doubt Ms. Evans and her ability to show me a way to get past their mistakes and give them a second chance. She does an excellent job of creating storylines that give even the baddest of bad boys a chance for redemption. When we first meet Levi, he comes across as this big tough guy that always does the right thing, which I thought was going to be boring. I was wrong. He has his flaws; he is a bit possessive and has a bit of a jealous streak and when he grabs Archer in front of his bull riding buddy and lays that hot kiss on him, he had me. The Gods of Chaos, or at least the few we have met, are seriously twisted. But in that fun I-can't-wait-to-see-what-you-do-next kind of way. They may reign over chaos but they also seem to have a bit of a romantic streak…who knew?" -- Tyra Berger, The Romance Reviews
ADULT EXCERPT
Archer jerked his head away, gasping for breath as his chest heaved beneath Levi’s.
“Please,” he whimpered, his eyes blazing with a desire that rivaled Levi’s own.
The one simple word finally brought home the words that Levi needed to say before they went any farther. “I’m keeping you, Archer Neilson. If you say yes and we do this, that’s it. I’m not letting you go, so you need to be sure.”
Archer just smiled up at him and wound his arms around Levi’s neck. “Okay.”
“Okay?” Levi’s dick screamed at him to shut the fuck up and get on with the good stuff, but he had to be sure. He’d meant every word of it, and he needed Archer to know that. “Are you sure? We haven’t known each other long.”
“I know enough. I was scared that you wouldn’t want me around when my thirty days are up, so yeah, I’m good with you wanting to keep me. I’d be even better if you’d stop talking and fuck me already.”
“Mouthy little shit.” Levi nipped at Archer’s lips in reprimand, but it only served to make Archer’s chest rumble with a strangled groan. Reaching for the box, Levi tore it open, ignoring Archer’s chuckles when the strips of condoms flew out like one of those snake in a can gag gifts.
Tossing one at Archer, he hoped the man got the hint because Levi was currently focused on trying to remove the safety seal on the lube with trembling fingers. He wasn’t having much luck, though. A loud snarl of frustration curled his lip, and he almost threw the bottle across the room. He was so relieved when he finally managed to get it open that he actually let out a whoop of victory.
Looking down at his lover, Levi glared and pointed a finger in the man’s amused face. “Don’t you do it.”
Archer squeezed his eyes together and shook his head quickly. “I wouldn’t dream of it.” Then little snorts escaped his nose before he broke down completely and began to laugh. It was so full of joy and happiness that Levi couldn’t help but laugh right along with him. He’d never had so much fun with a bed partner.
In just the short amount of time they’d been together, Archer was quickly becoming more to him, though. He didn’t want the man in his bed for only a night, or even two weeks. It was too early to tell if they’d make for the long haul, but he knew he wanted Archer to stick around and give them a chance at a future.
A wave of tenderness swept over him, unlike anything he’d ever felt before, and suddenly, everything needed to be perfect for their first time together. While not a selfish lover, it was another first for him. Levi had a feeling he’d experience a lot of those with the sweet man beneath him.
Then those talented fingers wrapped around his hard cock again, expertly rolling the rubber down his engorged length, and Levi gasped and shuddered from the touch. Sliding down Archer’s body until he knelt between his bent knees, he placed gentle kisses along the inside of his lover’s thigh, ghosting his fingertips up the outside of the other.
He took his time, exploring Archer’s body like the treasure it was until the man quaked beneath him and panted for breath. When he’d tasted every part of Archer’s skin he could reach, he slithered his tongue along the thick, pulsing length of Archer’s cock.
Archer cried out, his shoulders pressing deeper into the mattress as he arched his hips, pressing up into Levi’s questing mouth. Levi gave the gorgeous dick a few more good strokes with his tongue, and then he backed off to just stare at the delectable picture of complete debauchery below him.
Slicking his fingers and coating his latex-covered cock, he tossed the bottle back to the mattress and skimmed his slippery fingers along Archer’s crease, glorying in the soft, needy whimpers pouring from his lover’s pouty lips.
Pushing just one finger between the rounded globes, he circled the tight muscles of Archer’s hole, caressing them with a gentle but constant touch until they began to loosen for him. “That’s it, baby. Just relax and let me take care of you.”
Archer’s eyelids flew open, and he stared up at Levi for the longest time before nodding dazedly. Levi didn’t understand the reaction, but he took Archer’s acceptance as a good sign to continue what he was doing.
Inserting just the tip of his index finger through those clenching muscles, Levi took a deep breath and groaned when Archer’s ass seemed to suck the rest of his digit right in. “So eager,” he whispered. “So hungry for me.”
“Yesss,” Archer hissed, jerking his hips and pushing back against Levi’s hand. “More, please, more.”
Keeping his movements slow and steady, Levi pumped his finger in and out of the silky channel until Archer relaxed enough for him to add a second. By the time he had three fingers sawing in and out of his lover’s welcoming heat, Levi was holding on to his control by a thread. His cock throbbed to the point of pain, his balls ached, and his belly cramped with the need for release.
Extracting his fingers, he lined up the tip of his cock, and covered Archer’s torso, dipping low until they were nose to nose. “Tell me you want this, Archer. I meant what I said before. I can’t have you for just one night. I need more than that.”
“I want this, Levi. I want you. Please, don’t make me wait any longer.”
That was all he needed to hear. Levi rocked his hips forward, nudging against Archer’s hole until the crown of his dick popped through the guarding muscles, and he sheathed himself in the mind-melting heat.
