The Temple of Heaven's Cover Art

The Temple of Heaven was drawn by PL Nunn. I captured the scene where Jordon and Tian Di are visiting the colorful Temple of Heaven in Beijing. This building is part of the imperial complex where emperors have gone to pray during two dynasties. 

As most of you know I lived in China for six years and during that time went to Beijing numerous times. Since we took most of our visitors there we had a set Beijing tour: The Great Wall at Mutianyu, the Panjiayuan Antique Market (mix of old and new treasures), the Laosho teahouse show, the Forbidden City (rush to get to the back where the garden is and walk toward the front to avoid the hords), the night market, and the Temple of Heaven. 

Here's me and my love during our 1st visit.

Music is Tian Di’s life and his love, and he’s made plenty of sacrifices. His career is finally taking off with his band, Made in China, and he’ll continue to put music first... until he meets Jordon. Then insta- lust becomes insta-love and a commitment to the future—no matter how difficult it might be. 

Jordon lives in a bubble constructed by his overprotective older brothers, who are so controlling that they’ve kept him from dating. A talented artist, Jordon managed to keep his success with a Japanese manga publisher a secret from his family, but now he fears discovery. It’s easier to let his brothers handle everything, but Jordon has reached his limit. He’s ready to draw some boundaries so he can be his own man and face all the challenges that come with that. 

Their families and careers aren’t the only obstacles. Jordon must accept his identity as a gay man who doesn’t top or bottom. Fortunately, Tian Di—and his special talents—help Jordon open up to his sexuality in an erotic adventure that spans Japan and China, and with love, luck, hard work, and open minds, will end in a happily ever after.
