Hey y’all…TGIF! I managed to come down with the flu so this one will be short and sweet!😷
FRIDAY FAVES is a little meme where I can post about some of my favorite book related topics, including various tropes, awesome heroes, bad boys and bookish stuff!
Today’s topic:
MALE ROMANCE AUTHORS
All of the authors in today’s post are ones that I’ve read before and enjoyed. But the romance genre is mainly made up of female authors (and I won’t get into the politics of that)! Anyway, if you have NOT read any of these authors, I encourage you to try them out…you might be surprised!!😉

Wolfsong (Green Creek #1) by T.J. Klune
Since being published, TJ has won the Lambda Literary Award for Best Gay Romance, fought off three lions that threatened to attack him and his village, and was chosen by Amazon as having written one of the best GLBT books of 2011.
And one of those things isn’t true.
(It’s the lion thing. The lion thing isn’t true.)

I’m interested in the way literature can help us explore aspects of the human condition – particularly suffering, sex, love, faith, and redemption. My favourite stories are those in which a character takes a journey, either a physical journey to a new and exciting place, or a personal journey in which he or she learns something about himself/herself.
I’m also interested in how aesthetic elements such as art, architecture, food, drink, and music can be used to tell a story or to illuminate the traits of a particular character. In my writing, I combine all of these elements with the themes of redemption, forgiveness, and the transformative power of goodness.
I try to use my platform as an author to raise awareness about the following charities: Now I Lay Me Down to Sleep Foundation, WorldVision, Alex’s Lemonade Stand, and Covenant House.

Scott Hildreth
Goodreads Author

His preferred careers of being a hit man, serial killer, biker, military hero, mafia boss, boxer, vigilante, and tattoo artist will always be favorites, but as writing has become a full-time gig, he must live vicariously through the characters in his books who share his admiration for these professions.
He resides in Naples, Florida with his wife and children.

A Lover’s Lament by K.L. Grayson (Goodreads Author), B.T. Urruela
I didn’t know Ilona Andrews was a husband and wife writing duo! You learn something new everyday 😀 Great post Trisy – I think male romance authors deserve a bit more credit for making it in the genre. Jen
