Will Rowan’s festival fling with sexy dancer Seth lead to something more permanent?
Rowan is stuck at a folk festival helping out a mate, and it really isn’t his scene. The yoga and singing workshops are bad enough, but morris dancing is the final straw. Bearded men with beer guts prancing around wearing bells—who wants to watch that?
All Rowan’s preconceptions are shattered when he meets Seth—a morris dancer, and the stuff Rowan’s fantasies are made of. Seth persuades Rowan to come to a dancing workshop, and Rowan’s willing to do whatever it takes to get to know Seth better. The attraction is mutual, and a lesson filled with innuendo and flirting leads to an incredible night together.
When Rowan arrives home, he’s gutted to find that Seth has given him the wrong phone number. Assuming Seth did it on purpose, Rowan resolves to forget about him. But fate—and friends—conspire to get them back together. Will they manage to stay in step this time around?

Sweet, but hot and sexy; I loved it!
I can hardly believe that it’s been nearly 4 years since I first read Tops Down Bottoms Up. I loved it then and I loved it even more when I listened to Hamish Long’s fantastic performance of the audiobook. His voice is so perfect for Jay Northcote’s writing.
I’d never heard of Morris dancing back when I first read Tops Down Bottoms Up so I looked it up; isn’t YouTube wonderful? I won’t spoil it for you, check it out for yourself. 😊
While this is a fairly short audiobook at only 2 hours and 17 minutes, it still packs a punch. Jay Northcote’s writing is so descriptive that I could see and feel all of the things the characters did. I love it when I get that feeling from a book.
This story held my attention right from the beginning. I could totally relate to Rowan’s dismay at finding that Seth had given him a bad phone number and my heart hurt for him. Thank goodness Rowan and Seth have good friends and that’s all I’ll say.
I loved this book and can’t recommend it highly enough!

Jay lives just outside Bristol in the West of England. He comes from a family of writers, but always used to believe that the gene for fiction writing had passed him by. He spent years only ever writing emails, articles, or website content.
One day, Jay decided to try and write a short story—just to see if he could—and found it rather addictive. He hasn’t stopped writing since.
Jay writes contemporary romance about men who fall in love with other men. He has five books published by Dreamspinner Press, and also self-publishes under the imprint Jaybird Press. Many of his books are now available as audiobooks.
