Blog Tour and Giveaway: Plantation Affair by Gregory Jonathan Scott

Plantation6x9_BW_4dek 490x748


During a time when love between two chaps was not spoken of, Deklan and Logan found a way to bring their affair of the heart to life. One was the white son of a wealthy Plantation owner, and the other a black servant who worked the property to survive. This romantic fairytale took place in the deep south of Georgia in the late eighteenth century where horse carriages and kerosene lighted lanterns brought a town to life. Deklan and Logan’s affair was ignited one night with the help of a mysterious man who magically appeared and then disappeared without a trace after leading them into the realms of love. Love was found, Love was lost and then Love was found again in a spiraling and uplifting fairytale between two lovable beings that were meant to be in love.


The Plantation Affair is a modern day fairy tale, but with a twist. It's a beautiful love story about how love knows no boundaries. 

The book is based on a time where slavery had just ended, but civil rights were still ignored. Where interracial couples didn’t happen without consequences and homosexuality was a crime. But the heart wants what the heart wants. 

Logan worked at a Manor taking care of the animals, and Deklan was the master’s son. These two found each other despite their differences and their relationship gets put through its share of tests and obstacles. Can they survive all the expectations society puts on them, or does it tear their relationship apart? 

I'm fairly new to the m/m genre, and have never read a historical romance. So in many ways this book was my first in this genre. I thought it had a great pace, but I didn’t care much for how the story was being told to us. I wanted to feel more, as though I was right there instead of reading about being there. Overall this book was written nicely and I did have a hard time putting it down. I would recommend it to anyone looking for a fast m/m read with a historical twist.

 This was a hard review to write, because I liked the book but there were some things I didn't care for. I give it 3 stars!

Meeting by chance in Grand Rapids before relocating to South Florida where they live now with their lovable Shetland sheepdog and a sweet stray cat that showed up one day and decided to make their house a home. As a child, Gregory was always told he had a creative imagination and the artistic ability to turn a blank canvas into an eye catching work of art. Shortly after high school graduation, and together with his true love Scott, discovered the thrill of pottery and ceramic art. Here is where the two of them opened a business for ceramists that quickly exploded before their eyes as the number one location for any hobbyist, storefront and scholastic industry looking for supplies related to ceramics and pottery. During this time, Gregory was approached by art magazines to write short articles and educational columns pertaining to the ceramic artistry. Captivating readers by his writing style grew fast, which ignited his desire to express himself further. From there, it began. Finding a love for writing, alongside his artistic hand, gave him inspiration to design and write this M/M romance Novel. Gregory Jonathan Scott mostly enjoys writing M/M suspense novels mixed with bouts of Romance. Gregory and Scott are still together and are currently enjoying home life in South Florida.
