    About this ebook

    You may already know Donovan Hart from A Gentleman’s Affair and A Gentleman’s Secret. Here is your chance to get to know him a bit more personally...more, behind the scenes, or under the sheets, as I like to say.

    In A Gentleman's Memoir, you will get a glimpse into his past. You will see Donovan tackle loss, love, heartbreak, and sexual exploration. You see him grow from a directionless, 25-year-old, entitled, partying, beach bum and well-known Malibu ladies’ man into a man who decides to take on the world...or at least, La Fuga.

    Spanning seven years of his life, from the death of his beloved mother, to his relationship with Danielle Hughes -aka cheating whore- to the sexual escapades that go beyond even his wildest imagination, A Gentleman’s Memoir, written in Donovan’s own words, may just shock you.

    Possibly just as much as it did him.

      By AJ Linn

      Vol. 3: The Gentleman’s Series

      Other books by AJ Linn

      A Gentleman’s Affair (pub. May, 2013)

      …an excellent book, well-written and hard to put down.

      …witty and warm, taking us on a journey of Donovan's self discovery. You will be rooting for the sexy Donovan Hart, wanting him to find his il mio per sempre.

      …characters the reader will care about, and moments to which everyone will relate. Donovan's dry wit had me laughing in one paragraph, his vulnerability had me crying in the next. It is a roller coaster ride with an ending that left me speechless and dying for more…

      A Gentleman’s Secret (pub. December, 2013)

      I have laughed, shouted and cried with these characters and taken them to my heart.

      …a perfect sequel…full of humor, heartache, drama, danger, and a little suspense. I don’t think I will ever get enough of the confident, sexy Donovan Hart.

      I simply love this author’s style.

      Dedication

      No surprise here...I once again dedicate this book to my incredible twits. In the last two books I have always said, to my twitter ladies, but we have Jon now, and so you will all be lovingly referred to as my twits.

      You twits push me to do better...to give you a better story with each book, and I can only hope that with this one, I have done that.

      Donovan’s journey has been one hell of a ride for me, and with the contributions of your character submissions, his ride became crazier with each page. I have been asked more than once why I do these character contests, or, do I need help coming up with new characters, and my answer has always been the same…

      Obviously I can create the characters on my own, but it was the urging of a few fans of the blog that made me write these books, so including them seemed like a natural progression for the story.

      Allowing friends and readers to become a part of the story has made it all that much more interesting of an experience, and I only hope that I have done your characters justice.

      Thanks for playing…

      ACKS

      First off, I would like to acknowledge Scarlett Hartgrove. This lady has been with me from the beginning, always ready and willing to do anything and everything that is needed to bring you a clean novel, Tuesday Teasers, answering questions via The Hub on Twitter, Facebook, the store, and Tumblr. She works hard and does it without pay, only asking for a signed copy in the end. Who does these things all for some strange twit Fifty for free?

      She does...and without her, you would be reading some typo-filled, fucked-up-information shit. She knows my books better than I do, pointing out the little things that I miss, and/or fuck up.

      Scarlett, thank you...a million times thank you. After the next book, I will owe you two million. You are one of a kind.

      To Mal, thank you for proofing and formatting when I know that you would rather be sleeping. I appreciate you taking time when I know that you had an extremely full plate already, and what not...and such. (Private joke) After this, I hope that you enjoy the long break that you deserve...and congratulations.

      I would also like to acknowledge my twits, who are always out there pimping and supporting, and making some incredible memes to share with the followers. I am blown away every single time I see my characters brought to life via these quote photos, as I like to call them. Thank you.

      A Note From the Author

      Quote

      I would rather die of passion than of boredom.

      -Vincent Van Gogh

      Prologue

      No shortage of wild, wet, and more-than-willing participants filled the dark, smoky adult club that Mike and Russ dragged me to. Dragged may be too strong of a word, I went willingly. True, this would be my first experience in a club like this, and I even surprised myself at just how much I enjoyed everything about it…

      The large wooden stage at the front of the club would soon become the platform for the uninhibited, the exhibitionist, and at times, as I quickly found out, the perverse. Play parties, as they were commonly referred to in these adult clubs, were the main attraction.

      Sex acts in this public forum were the norm for most here, but for me, the closest I ever got to sex in public was a lifeguard tower or backseat of a car. Amateur stuff to this crowd. I was about to enter into a world that some have only heard about, and certainly never talked about. Most have probably said, ‘No way, I’d never do that!’ But, hey...don’t knock it if you've never tried it.

      I wouldn't take the stage on that first night, but it wouldn't be long before I did. Trust me when I say that I had to work my way up to that, but when I did finally decide to grace a stage with my presence, it would turn out to be the most exhilarating, titillating moment of my life, and I would quickly become addicted. Addicted to the eyes that were watching with such intent.
