The Rainbow Snippets group on Facebook asks its members to share six sentence snippets from their work each weekend. Check out the group's Facebook page to read all the snippets and add lots of great books to your TBR. You'll find all sorts of books with the common thread that the main character identifies as LGBTQ.
I'm switching to snippets from The Spymaster's Secret this month. It's a book I had so much fun writing, and I don't think I've shared snippets from it in quite a while. Alexander is a flirtatious, charming young royal with hidden depths who develops an unexpected but not unwelcome attraction to a mysterious older widower. In turn, Marcus is fascinated by the vibrant Alexander, but as the Crown's spymaster, he knows being involved with him is dangerous. Marcus also can't seem to stop himself from becoming more entangled with Alexander even as he tracks a ring of spies and danger creeps up on Alexander. I've skipped ahead just a little this week to some banter between Alexander and Marcus masquerade ball.

Alexander’s eyes darkened, something coming into them as he watched Marcus steadily. His lips curved more, just a hint of a seductive smile, and Marcus shook his head immediately in denial.
“Alexander.”
His smile didn’t falter at Marcus’s quietly voiced admonishment. If anything, it grew. “Marcus.”
His name in that low, teasing tone rippled through him, leaving heat in its wake. “We can’t do this.”
Alexander’s eyes widened behind the mask, before he lowered his lashes to veil them. “I didn’t ask you to do anything. But maybe I will now.”
“Alexander.”
He ignored the repressive tone again. “Dance with me.”
“You—you want me to dance with you?”
“We are at a ball.” Those peridot eyes glittered flirtatiously. “At balls, people dance. I enjoy dancing. I think I might enjoy it very much with you.”
