Synopsis

Colin Campbell had been a champion all his life. Nothing had ever beaten him, not even a drug lord’s bullet. And he approached law school the same way he approached everything in life, with cocky confidence fizzing through his veins like ginger ale. He had it all. He had the looks, the brains, the experience, the know-how and he also had the love of his life at his side. He couldn’t be defeated… he thought.

Love’s Lawyer tells the full story of that crucial time period in Colin and Joshua’s life. The sixteen short stories in Lawyer on My Case add a bit of spice and flavoring to that tale. Told during the same time-frame or shortly after, these sixteen stories take us to David’s cabin where the four friends engage in their usual playful, mocking banter in: Conversations at the Cabin. To Joshua’s home in Glencoe were he gives Colin some very old love letters in: Love Letters From Josh. And to the campus police station where Colin gets into big trouble in: No Danger THIS Time!.

We examine how Colin, Josh, and their friends deal with being quarantined during COVID in: Going On A Date, how they cope with their best friends becoming infected with the deadly virus in: Colin VS. COVID. We also examine how Colin and Josh respond to the thought of having a child in: The Child We Want. We see them in both good times and bad. We examine their text messages in: Text Messages, and feel Colin’s rage after the George Floyd shooting in Minneapolis in: They’re Not Cops!.

Each of these tidbits are a profoundly different lens through which we can view Colin and Joshua’s life together. Each is a moment which adds to the tapestry of their love and their journey both as individuals and as a couple. I hope you enjoy Lawyer on My Case.’

A wonderful collection of short stories!

If you are a fan of Janice Jarrell’s books you won’t want to miss this one. I loved all of the short stories in this collection but I think my favorite is Terms of Endearment. In this story Colin and Josh are with their good friends David and Nate and they get into a discussion about what pet names Colin calls Josh.

When Nate asks Josh what endearment Colin uses most often Joshua laughs and says “bud.” In other books in this series, I’ve kind of wondered why Colin calls Joshua “bud” and this story give a perfectly reasonable explanation. 🥰

One of the other things I really enjoyed about this group of stories is that we get to see a lot more of David and Nate than what I think we have in the other books in this series. The Fearless Heart series is primarily about Colin and Josh, and if memory serves me, David and Nate appear in the other books but they don’t get as much “on page” time as they do in this collection.

I don’t think you should try to read this book as a standalone. For the full impact of the short stories, you need to know what has happened to Colin and Josh in the previous books. I highly recommend starting with the Relevant Heart series and then continue on with the Fearless Heart series.

I can’t forget to say what a wonderful job Walker William does performing these characters. He uses distinctive voices for each one and it is easy to tell who is speaking. Janice Jarrell found the absolutely perfect performer for her characters when she hired Walker Williams.

About Author

Janice Jarrell

My name is Janice Jarrell. I am a retired grandmother who lives in Seattle, WA. I have two children and three grandsons. I’ve been writing gay romance since I was twelve years old, only back then it wasn’t called ‘gay romance’. In fact, it had no name at all. It was the fifty’s, and it was worth your life to admit to being gay, let alone confess to being a girl who constantly fantasized about relationships between gay men. Hell, I didn’t even know what a homosexual was. I lived on a farm out in the sticks in a tiny Michigan village and I’d never, to my knowledge, even heard the word. I just knew I loved the thought of boy-on-boy romance. I just knew that there was something hot going on between Tom Corbett and his Space Cadets and all those guys on ‘Combat’.

I wrote slash fanfiction for 30 years, writing over 337 stories, some as short as 100 words (a drabble), some as long as a series which was over 119,012 words. I enjoy writing my stories. I enjoyed the feedback I received from my readers. It was a creative release I’d been searching for my entire life and I blessed the Internet for leading me to this artistic oasis for my spirit.

Love’s Magic was my very first step into writing my own characters. I will always be grateful to the slash fanfiction community for nurturing the budding author until she was ready to blossom into a fully realized novelist. It’s been an amazing thing to watch the gay community’s growth over these past twenty years. My own journey has echoed theirs in many ways, and I’m grateful to all those gay activists who fought to give the gay community the rights and privileges they always deserved. Love’s Trials, Love’s Glory, and Love’s Lawyer were the second and third, and forth books in the series and all four books are available in audio format on Audible.

I’m also grateful to the gay romance community, readers, authors, publishers and promoters, who are making these, my retirement years, the most creative ones of my life. When I’m not writing, I’m traveling, walking, hiking, knitting, crocheting, and weaving.
