Book synopsis:
Ben wants to find a new home.
Twenty-four-year-old Ben McCormick is the primary caregiver for his brother Milo after their parent’s death. A year into the job, he’s totally got the hang of it. Mostly. Sort of. Not at all?
Defeated and thoroughly chastised for his lack in parenting skills at teacher-parent night, Ben slumps away with the resolve to finally get his life sorted: be a better role model, and sell their parents’ house for a fresh start.
But first, he needs to spruce up his house to hit the market. He’s no DIY king, but Milo’s hot-as-hell woodwork teacher is…
Jack wants an old home to fix.
Thirty-nine-year-old Jack Pecker is waiting for the home of his dreams to come on the market in the summer. What better way to wait the interim months than working on a small renovation gig?
Only trouble is, the gig is for the McCormick brothers. And working in close quarters to red-haired Ben McCormick won’t be easy. Not with the attraction that simmers between them. Attraction Ben makes no effort to hide.
But Jack’s professional. Dating a parent is highly discouraged at Kresley Intermediate, and he’d never cross the lines…
Ben and Jack. Two guys searching for a home – a home that might just be where their hearts lead them.

Links:
A path winds around a semi-cordoned off grassy-stretch, but I dash over the boggy grass. I’ll save every minute I can—
My foot skids on a slick patch, and I’m whipped onto my ass with a wet, heavy slap. I brace against the cold ground, weeds and sludge slurping between my fingers.
With a shaky laugh, I push to my feet.
Some days sure test my fortitude.
“Shortcuts never end well.”
I whirl around. A dozen yards away, a male figure is casually leaning over a ramp leading to the craft rooms. The setting sun behind the building makes it difficult to see details.
I wipe the globs of mud from my good jeans. “You don’t say.”
He laughs. “Hang on. I’ll get you a towel.”
The man—either a teacher or a very at-home parent—ducks inside the small building.
It’s not at all in the direction of the building I was aiming for, but I can’t trek all this mud into a kid’s classroom, and maybe this guy can give me directions.
I make it to the ramp just as my towel-wielding savior emerges. Bright eyes track over me with barely suppressed laughter.
He tosses me the towel. “Go nuts.”
I scrub myself down quickly. A chunk of mud juts out from my boot heel and there’s no way around it but to smear it onto the towel. I’m getting an eyeful of this guy’s feet, and I have to say, he has perfected the lumber-man style. Metal-capped boots, jeans, and a flannel shirt.
I straighten. He’s fit, and he exudes manliness: broad shoulders, blunt jaw with a hint of six o’clock shading, and thick brows.
Compelling green eyes twinkle good-naturedly, softening the innate strength in his face. He lifts a brow, and I grin. “What’s the protocol here? Do I give this back to you, or take it home to wash first?”
He gestures for the towel—more brown now, than blue—and his large hand closes around it. “Where are you heading?”
“Wing C. There’s a mad hen waiting to rip out my throat and feast on my entrails.”
“Mrs. Devon?”
I cock him a finger-gun. I am my dad’s son. “Five points to Gryffindor.”
He gestures toward the soccer pitch. “Behind the gym.”
I jog down the ramp and into the quad. “Wish me luck.”
About Anyta Sunday:
A bit about me: I’m a big, BIG fan of slow-burn romances. I love to read and write stories with characters who slowly fall in love.
Some of my favorite tropes to read and write are: Enemies to Lovers, Friends to Lovers, Clueless Guys, Bisexual, Pansexual, Demisexual, Oblivious MCs, Everyone (Else) Can See It, Slow Burn, Love Has No Boundaries.
I write a variety of stories, Contemporary MM Romances with a good dollop of angst, Contemporary lighthearted MM Romances, and even a splash of fantasy.
My books have been translated into German, Italian, French, Spanish, and Thai.
