Author Introduction

    It has been almost five years since this story was first written and released (11 September 2008). A story I felt had a good premise and a lot of promise, but one that I have been unhappy with ever since. As an author I have evolved, and although I enjoyed the writing of this story it had less of an appeal as time went on ... so I have changed it.
    Remolding the original to fit my current way of thinking allowed me to expand the details of these fictional characters, they didn't mind one bit. In doing so I have given you a more complete story filled with romance and adventure. Some of you may have seen Hitch-hiking can be Dangerous and now I have developed Brass Balls from that beginning.
    This is the first time I have ever changed an existing story and in many ways it is far easier for an author to write something new than to change something old. But doing this was a test of my ability to maintain a consistent level of accomplishment. My sole objective is to please you, the readers, and to that end I must say: Thank you for reading.

    How much of a man's life is wasted in search of the perfect mate? No matter how strong or courageous the individual it is often the mere chance offered in a moment of time that allows two people to forge a lifetime together. This is a story about that moment, that chance meeting and the wondrous romance that develops for those willing to risk everything.
    Brass Balls is a story of gay romance, adventure, and the meaning of love. Once again I have set much of this story on the ocean or in places familiar to the readers. The tale is filled with men we should admire and boys we can only envy as they all become heroes in the fictional life I have given these characters.
    Set in southern Florida and across the Gulf of Mexico to the Yucatan Peninsula, the Brass Balls sails through stormy seas and moonlit nights, forging a comradeship and a family. The true life events used in this story are presented to bring realism to the fiction. None of these characters are meant to represent real persons, just the fantasies that endure in the author's mind.

    Note from Jevic, the Tarheel Writer - this is one of my favorite Chris James stories.
    It is with great sorrow that we let you know Chris passed away in April 2019. His legacy lives on in his stories that we love so much.
