The Brotherhood of the Midnight Pearl... An island known as the Isle of Man, a place where passion among men is the rule—the only rule... Linus Masterson, once a powerful man of authority, has left the isolated, mystical Isle of Men to return to mainland life. He left Mannos because of love and desire for one man, an initiate, he couldn't truly possess, but now he meets another man who reminds him of the object of his desire from paradise. Sam, a young, attractive waiter, wearing the double pearl earring, marking him a mainland member of the Brotherhood of the Midnight Pearl, draws Linus' heated attention. Sam's a man meant for pleasure and Linus is determined to show him how good it can be at the hands of an immortal, experienced authoritarian. Linus can only hope that in the arms of his new lover he will return to the paradise he had thought forever lost... Genres: Gay / Fantasy / Exhibitionism / Public Places / Series

His immortality is a double-edged sword of ultimate pleasure and blinding regret... Because of his betrayal of Phineas, one of the island Ancients, Alonzo was exiled from Mannos and the Brotherhood of the Midnight Pearl. After a century, he has learned to survive in alienation, serving as an acquisitor to the Brotherhood.

But Alonzo has sworn he will never love another man. He’s already lost his soul, and he can’t afford to wager any more of his emotion if he is to survive this purgatory, one he must endure until Phineas forgives him for his transgressions. If that ever happens...
