Cameron Wants To Be A Hero by Anyta Sunday
Love, Austen (Book 2)
Lake: Did you get his number this time?
Cameron: Yes. But I’m not sure I should use it so soon.
Lake: What’s soon? Didn’t you last see him yesterday?
Cameron: I thought you’re meant to wait three days? Otherwise it looks desperate.
Lake: You are desperate.
Cameron: Thanks.
Lake: From everything you’ve told me, sounds like this could be something.
Cameron: You think?
Lake: Message him. Keep it sexy.
When it comes to romance books, Cameron Morland can always read between the lines. When it comes to real romance, he may need a dictionary.
Or Jane.
It’s Northanger Abbey, complete with a neo-gothic mansion and charming misunderstandings. But contemporary. And gay.

He’d never been so impatient.
Dressed in full black tie, he and his brother attended the pre-party held in a private room adjacent to Arch Theatre. Cameron smiled and nodded and raised his glass, one eye on the door. Minutes dragged like hours.
A gaggle of finely dressed latecomers crowded into the room, blocking his escape.
Then Brandon called upon him to answer some questions.
By the time they arrived at the theatre, the audience had been seated.
With a jumpy heart, Cameron scanned the rows as he walked down the aisle. Isabella and John were seated at the back. But where were the Tilneys?
Had they come? Or had they thought Cameron wouldn’t want them here? Had Henry heard his voicemail? Read his messages?
Butterflies flapped in his stomach and a sigh bubbled out of him. They’d come.
There, in the space for wheelchairs, sat Georgie. Next to her Mr. Tilney, and next to him, Henry.
Henry. Six steps away.
Their gazes caught in the dim light.
Cameron paused mid-step, while his brother sidled to their seats.
Mr. Tilney followed his son’s gaze, and Henry looked away.
Cameron’s stomach fell. What did that mean? He’d not received his apology? He’d not forgiven him? He’d only come because Georgie and his dad had wanted to see the films?
He shuffled toward his seat; a heavy voice stopped him. “Excuse me, young man.”
Cameron swiveled around, coming face to face with Henry’s dad. Tall and broad, with a similar crop of dark curly hair. His eyes were narrower, though, nose sharper, prouder. He smelled faintly of pine needles. “You know my Georgie.”
Cameron nodded. “Yes.”
“I’m happy to swap seats with you, if you’d like to sit with her?”
“Excuse me?”
“It seems silly for me to sit with my kids when their friend sits so close.”
“Oh, um, I wouldn’t want to take—”
“I insist.” Mr. Tilney steered him across the aisle. “Let’s chat during intermission.”
Agape, Cameron watched Mr. Tilney take his seat and introduce himself to Brandon.
Georgie and Henry eyed one another, trying to make sense of what their dad had done.
Georgie offered Cameron a short smile, and Henry pushed the free seat down.
The theatre darkened, cloaking Henry’s expression as he lifted his head.
Cameron sat between them, the velvet-cushioned chair the only thing keeping him from melting into a puddle of nerves on the floor. The heat from Henry, whether real or imagined, made his left temple burn.
If Henry put his arm on the armrest, that would signal that he was okay with . . . this.
Cameron edged his elbow onto it.
A few beats passed; the curtains opened, light blared from the giant screen, and Henry settled his arm on the rest between them.
Face aglow with the autumnal colors on screen, he examined Cameron from the corner of his eye.
“Henry,” Cameron whispered.
