David Westin knows. He knows the power of a man's hand on the arm of another man. He has lain awake at night long enough to realize this haunting need will never allow him to go to his grave wondering what might have been. When the day comes his best friend reveals a lifelong secret, their destiny is uprooted and cast to the wind. Together they enter a world of discovery, of elation and joy, of heartache and deception and tears, of physical adventure that neither one could have imagined. Setting themselves apart from the general brotherhood of men, they hear the inner voice that compels them to open a door they can never close. One look inside their soul and you’ll understand why this lawyer and contractor give in to their urges. Most men would have difficulty talking about this novel, though many, alone in quiet contemplation would feel its effect as deeply as the marrow of their bones. When guided by the chemistry they were born with, they are among those who secretly feel like the fortunate few. They recognize the magic of an intimate bond with another man. FIVE MARRIED MEN—A tale for anyone intrigued by the intensity and emotions of male sexuality. Now Available THE PARTISANS A gay black man from Mississippi, a German defector with a secret, and a temperamental Parisian female form an unlikely team in the French Resistance. |
| Five Married Men From their earliest memory, all five were attracted to men. They tried to ignore their secret fantasies, often finding themselves lying awake at night thinking about them. They married the women they loved and started new careers; then buried their inclinations beneath layers of newlywed bliss, endless workdays and difficult goals, only to have those private urges eventually emerge with renewed resolve. How many men are like them , no one will ever know; but including those who deny their best-kept-secret, there are far more than most would assume. They live next door and work in every profession. They can be found walking on any sidewalk in the world. They are fathers and brothers, uncles and sons, and sometimes they are husbands. |

| The Partisans Ethan Jones came to France long before the war started. He loved Paris—the lively cafés, the easy friendships with the artists and writers and whores. When the Germans invaded France, everything changed. Two years after he joined the Resistance, Ethan took an assignment in occupied northern France. The objective: Team up with another partisan, Adrienne Follett, and recover a satchel that went down in a single engine plane just north of Reims. Along the way, they meet up with Jhan, a German defector that ultimately wins their trust. Convinced Jhan is a Nazi hater, they allow him to join the team. They were told the objective was important. They were not told what the satchel contained. They had no reason to believe their involvement would help shorten the war, or save countless lives or cause them to have to leave France. They didn’t know that their own lives would soon hang by a thread; or that, in the end, a lifetime of loneliness would forever be left behind. |

Review: BEAUTIFUL.COM Paris
Martin Brant, author of the successful novel 'Five Married Men,' brings us to occupied France during
the Second World War and the times of the Holocaust. In this time of fear and oppression, the story
follows a few weeks of the lives of black American Ethan Jones and French Adrienne Follett, members
of the French resistance, and German defector Jhan. Martin Brant succeeded to describe in his easy to
read style how these three individuals and totally different personalities cross each others paths and
learn to know each other and win each others friendship and love in a period where trust is hard to
find. The Partisans is well written and a real page turner.
Like in 'Five Married Men,' Martin Brant describes in 'The Partisans' in his unique way the wonderful
human diversity in sex and sexual preference. Martin Brant is a brilliant author who, with his work,
contributes to the global acceptance of the love between two human beings, regardless their sex.

| Nothing would ever be the same for Michael Anderson, a renowned San Diego surgeon, after losing a little girl on the operating table. He blamed himself, rightfully, having stayed out the night before to indulge in his exotic nightlife. A half continent away, Justin Brooks left his bride-to-be standing at the altar when he ran from the church as if it were full of vampires. Leaving his hometown behind, in a fog of guilt and self-doubt, he found solace in the vast desert wilderness of far west Texas, as a park ranger in Big Bend National Park. When their paths crossed where the river and desert and mountains meet the sky, a friendship was born. Together, as one day ran into another, they found peace in the whispering hues and textures of the arid land; and they began to heal, learning more and more of themselves and each other. In the haunting desert solitude, they found a spark of hope. They loved the mountains, the sunsets and the poetry of the land, and they loved each other. Michael, beset with increasing pressure to revive his skills as a doctor, couldn’t find it in him to accept the responsibility. Not until he and Justin faced losing everything they had found, did both realize yet another destiny in the Big Bend. Neither could have foreseen the peril they would have to live through first. A tale of renewed dreams, of sensual adventure and the unexplainable mysteries of two men falling in love, A Song in the Park is a celebration of human diversity and a discovery that the simple things in life matter the most. Though essentially unchanged, it is a revision of the original addition published in 2005. |

| When Johnny Feelwater inherited the house on Confederate Square in historic old Savannah, he didn’t realize, once he stepped through the door, his life would never be same. He had never met Cassandra Mott, the old lady who left it to him. He didn’t know his mysterious benefactor had come back as a beautiful young seductress, to begin life again at age twenty-six; that she had returned to the house on Confederate Square, bent on revenge. Cassandra Mott loved the human part of her long existence. She loved the passion and feel it gave her body, which she frequently indulged. She loved the insight it gave her to the human mind, and her ability to use it to manipulate humankind for the things she wanted. She understood those shadowy recesses inside everyone’s head, those filaments and fibers and tissues that lay in wait to send their owners down misguided paths. She knew this part of the human mind, and she intended to use it to even the score with Johnny Feelwater. She would lead him away from his wife. She would get inside his head and sow the seeds of debauchery. She would awaken the sleeping genes he didn’t know were inside him, and she would put him at odds with his sexual identity. She would watch him grapple with the fears he had tried to repress since his boyhood. She would confuse him, and manipulate him, and turn him inside out, and relish every step of the journey. Then the day would come, when he finally reached wits end, that she would arrange for the final blow. But despite her three thousand years of knowledge, Cassandra Mott didn’t know everything. She didn’t know Johnny would find a way to resist. She didn’t know he would search for a way to cope. She didn't predict that the human part of her she detested, the emotions of guilt, sorrow and love, would bring about the downfall of her plan. |
