A Gentleman of Substance
2004
Michael St. James is something of a cad, and now he's paying for it, banished to a backwater, post-colonial Virginia town for his sins. Happily, he finds something to occupy his time in the form of Daniel Calhoun, a stiff-necked local squire who simply begs to be taken down a notch for his arrogance. The two begin a torrid affair, and Michael pushes them to the very edge of social extinction with his wild ways, drawing Daniel into mischief at every turn. Eventually Michael realizes that he teeters on the very brink of ruining Daniel's life as thoroughly as he has his own, and decides to do the honorable thing. Will it be too late for him to convince Daniel he can do the right thing? Or will Daniel Calhoun decide perhaps he doesn't want a gentleman after all?

#1.5
Jade and Copper
2006
Daniel Calhoun used to be a staid farmer in his post Revolutionary war world. Then he met and became lovers with Michael St James, and now Michael is showing him a whole new world, including jade plugs. A short story about the characters from A Gentleman of Substance, but can stand alone.
