more Vic Braunson is a city bus driver who falls in love with Matt diLorenzo, a swimmer he meets at the gym. Something about Matt brings out the best in Vic--literally. Every time they have sex, Vic gains new superhuman powers from his lover. Can they learn to live with these abilities without losing each other? Previously available only in electronic format, these three stories in J. M. Snyder's best-selling series, The Powers of Love, have now been combined for a paperback edition! Included are the tales......The Powers Of Love (The story that started it all, a winner in the 2007 Amber Quill Heat Wave Contest. When Vic meets Matt for the first time, sparks fly. When they finally consummate their relationship, there's no denying the energy between them. But the next morning, Vic awakens to find his mind crowded with a myriad of thoughts, none of them his own. After their second night of making love, Vic is filled with unparalleled strength. Oh, and now he can fly. Just what exactly is going on here? And how does he tell Matt without alienating his new lover or ruining their budding relationship? Or does Matt know something he, himself, is only now discovering?)......Matching Tats (Vic's latest tattoo makes Matt decide he might want to get inked, too. He'd like a heart with his lover's initials in it. Vic likes the idea, and agrees to get the same tattoo, with Matt's initials inside. They have fun deciding where to put the tattoos--a spot Vic hasn't already covered turns out to be pretty hard to find. Once they decide where to get inked, Matt may not be able to go through with it. He's more than a little skittish when it comes to needles, and watching the tattoo artist at work is frightening. With the powers love gives him, however, Vic finds a way to help Matt overcome his fears.)......With This Ring (Matt's ex, Jordan, confesses all to a tabloid and spills Matt's secret in the process. After the article appears, Matt receives a phone call from a research scientist at a local condom factory who claims to have a solution to his little 'problem.' The offer is tempting--the powers Vic receives from Matt are unpredictable and scary. Matt wants to keep his lover safe, and is eager to hear what the scientist has to suggest. Vic is willing to try the cure and lose his superhero abilities for his lover's peace of mind...even if it means losing the special mental connection they share, a bond formed by the powers, a bond that has become such a part of their lives together that neither is quite prepared when it suddenly disappears.)
