"Hound" Synopsis Reveal

Image
I’m very excited about my upcoming book “Hound”, which will be published by Pink Flamingo Media. It’s a passionate, unorthodox romance centring around two characters who appear in “The Lookout”—Angus’s friends, Gary and Jeff. Expect a lot of steamily explicit bear/otter love scenes, the odd group romp, a bit of nude life drawing, a couple of dirty weekends away, a wild and wacky best friend, some drama, some heartache, and a very resolute HEA.   Find the full synopsis below! ‘ Gary’s lived with bipolar disorder since he was eighteen. He’s stable and has a great career, family and friends, but at forty he’s never had a relationship. Casual sex has always been the easy option—fun, plentiful and no risk of upsetting the unruly emotions that simmer below his calm exterior.  This all changes the moment he meets Jeff. There’s no doubt in Gary’s mind that Jeff’s The One. But even though Jeff seems to be equally smitten, he only wants a part-time arrangement. Jeff works long hours, tr...

An Awesome Review of "The Lookout" on Erotic Book Network

Thank you, Kevin, for the most wonderful review on  https://www.eroticbooknetwork.com . I’m tickled pink over it! “Colin Dereham’s The Lookout is a great read.  It is a tale of one becoming three, and is explored through meaningful eroticism, tinged with a poignancy that is so rare in this genre.  It explores what happens when lives collide, and lust takes over, only to evolve into a meaningful love full of the complexity that comes from living in a throuple.   The eroticism is meaningful and balanced.  The opening chapter is epic, but real.  What I like about this novella is it bridges the gap between eroticism and literature so well. The characters have depth, and it is impossible not to form an attachment with each of them, particularly the character of Gus, a loveable cuddly bear with a heart filled full of compassion and so much love to give.  The story is contemporary and explores more than just intimacy and sex...

"The Lookout" Reviews

I’m really grateful to the people who have left these reviews for “The Lookout” on Amazon and Erotic Book Network. It means the world to me that there are people out there enjoying my steamy little tale of three bears living by Bondi Beach.   CC’s Review ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 5.0 out of 5 stars   Definitely recommend as a great summer read. Reviewed in Australia on 14 January 2022 Verified Purchase The Lookout is the story of Angus, who experiences instant and profound chemistry with his two new flatmates. They quickly form a throuple and the fun intensifies over the next few months. This long novella starts off as a wild sexy romp, then morphs into a moving, poignant tale as things go wrong, leading to disastrous results. The chemistry between the characters was electric and they complemented each other beautifully. The breezy style of writing made it easy to slip into the book comfortably. It was wonderful to see how the main characters managed to pick up the pieces and find happiness ...

Thanks for your support!

“The Lookout” has been bouncing up and down the best seller rankings in its category on Amazon… so far it’s made several visits to the top 30, so I’m pleased that at least a few people are seeing it!

Second novel "Hound" coming soon!

Super pleased with the cover art for my second book “Hound”, which my publisher Pink Flamingo Media has just sent. It was a real challenge for me to find a photo of a tall redhead and a short brunet with curly hair, to match the two main characters.  As a starving Bohemian rookie, I certainly didn’t have the budget to hire the perfect models and photographer to traipse down to the Bondi/Bronte coastline and take some stunning shots. Or do what authors like B.G. Thomas do and find an artist to draw an amazing picture to spec! Fortunately, with a little digital magic (done on the publisher’s end—you wouldn’t wanna see my sloppy attempts) Pink Flamingo managed to come up with a fantastic result. “Hound” is the story of Gary and Jeff, two of Angus’s friends featured in my first book “The Lookout.” I’m really looking forward to its upcoming release!  

"The Lookout" peaks at #21!

In the wild yo-yoing world of Amazon categories, I didn’t think I’d see this. I don’t know their algorithms, it’s sure to be a nebulous achievement, but whatever its implications are, it’s pleasing to see a small digit next to my book!
