Brett Rocha retired from pro-hockey while still at the top of his game. Co-owner of a chain of restaurants and an inherited ice skating academy, he seems to have it all. Despite his fame, wealth, and good fortune, though, Brett suddenly finds himself painfully alone.
Ex-Olympic figure skating star Rylan Hennessy transitioned to professional ice dancing with Celia, Brett’s sister and Rylan’s lifelong partner on the ice.
Then tragedy strikes, and Rylan’s world is turned upside down, too. With the unexpected death of Celia, Brett and Rylan are drawn together through their mutual grief.
Their bond strengthens when Brett introduces Rylan to BDSM, a lifestyle Rylan has never experienced before. While the mystery of Celia’s murder still needs to be solved, a second tragedy threatens to tear them apart.
Will their relationship survive, or will love be enough to see them through this life altering, harrowing change?

Rylan shrugged. “I don’t know. It doesn’t matter, I don’t
have a choice. I do work for the show. I’m sure our fans will
appreciate it.”
“Do you do everything because total strangers will like it?”
“As far as my performances go, yes, I think so. They’re the reason I go out and perform,” Rylan confessed. “That sounds bitter. I love what I do, but I loved doing it with my partner. Getting excited about this routine is like salt in an open wound. I’ve never skated solo.”
“You’ll be brilliant and the whole thing will be beautiful,” Brett said softly. “I’m looking forward to watching.”
“Tonight’s show starts soon. Do you want to go watch it?”
Brett leaned back in his chair, watching Rylan. “What do you want to do?”
“Whatever you want.” Rylan chuckled. “I’ve seen the show, lots of times.”
“But not as a spectator I bet?” Brett pressed.
“Well, no.”
Brett smiled softly. “I’d love to see the show live. It won’t be as good or the same without you and Celia, of course, but I enjoy ice dancing and figure skating.”
“We used to do at least part of one routine with actual figure skating movements, since we started out competing in figure skating, not ice dancing,” Rylan explained. Even though Brett had never, as far as Rylan knew, done either of those styles of skating he knew Brett was as familiar with them as
Rylan and Celia.
“Maybe you’ll give me a private performance soon.” Brett’s tone was suggestive of more than skating. The types of actions flitting through Rylan’s head was something one couldn’t possibly do on ice without risking injury.
Rylan ducked his head and grinned. “I’d love that.”
“I look forward to that as well,” Brett said.
Brett’s dark eyes were warm and had a hungry quality to them that made heat rise in Rylan’s groin. It took every ounce of control Rylan possessed to not squirm constantly in his chair. He felt as if every minute spent near Brett caused his cock to slightly firm, especially since they’d talked in Celia’s room. If he spent much more time thinking of how Brett could control him—his big hands holding Rylan still and doing whatever he pleased—Rylan would certainly lose any pretext of decorum and do something embarrassing in the middle of this restaurant.
Rylan jumped when Brett reached across the table and laid his hand over Rylan’s. “Hey, you okay? You haven’t heard a word I’ve said, have you?” Brett’s eyes narrowed but his voice was teasing.
“Huh? Uh…um…”
“Working out in your head how that routine will go?” Brett squeezed Rylan’s hand very gently.
Rylan wanted to say yes. In fact, he intended to say that exact word. Instead he shook his head. “No.” Clearly his mouth had other ideas.
“Hmm. Well, whatever it is, it must be very interesting.” Brett withdrew his hand and picked up an egg roll covered in sauce, biting through it very slowly. When he was finished, he slowly licked his fingers—one at a time.
Rylan’s brain was fogging over at an incredible rate. He opted for nodding instead of trying to talk and risking something outrageous and stupid flying out of his mouth.
Brett sat back and studied Rylan, a slow smile forming. “I was saying, since we have all their belongings boxed up, I’ll get an address tomorrow and ship Clive’s to his family for them.”
“Th-that’s really nice of you. Are you going to send—uh…the stuff we found?” Rylan couldn’t help how awkward he felt.
Snorting, Brett said, “Oh hell no. If someone in his family wants that stuff they’ll have to ask. I wouldn’t compromise Clive’s privacy that way. When he recovers, I’ll make sure he gets it back if he wants it.”
“Is there a BDSM version of a second-hand store?”
That made Brett laugh. “I never thought about it.” He shrugged. “Anyway, tomorrow I’ll drive you to the arena if you’d like, drop you there and run my errands. I should be able to meet up with you around lunch time, and if no one cares, I’ll stick around for the rest of practice.”
“I’d like that a lot,” Rylan confessed in a quiet voice. “Where do you want to sit for tonight’s show? Up in one of private loges or down by the ice?”
“I like being close to the action.”
Mystery, action, chills, and thrills spiced with romance and desire. ELIZABETH NOBLE started telling stories before she actually knew how to write, and her family was very happy when she learned to put words on a page. Those words turned into books and fan fiction that turned into a genuine love of M/M fiction. Being able to share her stories is really a dream come true. She has a real love for a good mystery complete with murder and twisty plots as well as all things sci-fi, futuristic, and supernatural.
Elizabeth has three grown children and is now happily owned by an adorable mixed breed canine princess, a spunky Welsh Corgi and their sidekick, tabby cat. She lives in her native northeast Ohio, the perfect place for gardening, winter and summer sports (go Tribe and Cavs!). When she’s not writing she’s working as a veterinary nurse, so don’t be surprised to see her men with a pet or three who are a very big part of their lives.
Elizabeth has received a number of amateur writing awards. Since being published, several of her novels have received Honorable Mentions in the Rainbow Awards. Jewel Cave was a runner-up in the Gay Mystery/Thriller category in the 2015 Rainbow Awards. Ringed Love was a winner in the Gay Fantasy Romance category of the 2016 Rainbow Awards.
