TITLE: Lessons in Timing
AUTHOR: Sylvia Barry
PUBLISHER: Riptide Publishing
LENGTH: 377
RELEASE DATE: 4/22/2024
BLURB:
Sometimes opposites attract so hard they miss.
Lucas Barclay—charismatic Californian and fastidious photographer—is impatiently waiting for his commitment-phobic boyfriend to . . . well, commit. In the meantime, he rents a shared apartment, which is fine, except for the nocturnal cryptid also living there. Lucas spends his days working at his family’s horse sanctuary, contemplating the unexplained doodles left on his bathroom mirror, and dodging inkwells. Left on carpet.
Armand Demetrio’s grim-dark comic Surrogate Goose has catapulted him to unexpected fame, and the British artiste finds himself abroad, teaching a workshop in California. He spends his nights dreading the international convention at the end of the summer (and the celebrity it entails), tarnishing his hard-won sobriety, and wallowing in the mystery of his elusive flatmate. Why would anyone need so much kale? And why does everything smell of lilac?
Though conflicting schedules keep Lucas and Armand from meeting in person, tentative communication begins through text, Post-it notes, and muffins. But Armand will return to London soon, and he and Lucas might get clock-blocked. Can you fall in love with someone you’ve never met?

When my kitten goes missing, I’m at a loss. I’ve always been so careful not to leave my door open and have no idea how she got out. All I know is that she is out there in the big world all alone, and it’s somehow my fault.
So what do I do? Sob loud enough for my landlord to hear. He offers to help me find Cat-terine, and when we do, he gives me a hug—a hug that doesn’t feel very straight. Now what?

Kara’ s not an Omega that Alphas want— so can she trust it when four rich, smart, gorgeous Alphas say they do?
Kara is smart, beautiful— and very aware of the fact that no Alpha will want her, because she’s a one-in-a-million Omega who can’t get pregnant or bond. That’ s what billionaire Alpha Damon Silva tells her his set of four Alphas wants, though, when he offers to court her.
The idea of four gorgeous billionaires wanting her seems too good to be true, and she can’t forget the one massive catch: without a bond, they’ll always be able to drop her from their lives and move on, leaving her known as the Omega who got left behind.
But this might be her only opportunity for the life she always wanted to live, if she can get past the fear of it all going wrong— or right. What’ s an Omega to do, when faced with the opportunity of a lifetime?

His constant worry that he’s not good enough and his chronic inability to trust are what leaves him heartbroken time and again.
After he adds the latest name, he turns to his best friend, Andres Wood, for solace. But instead of treating Bastian to dinner, drinks, and the usual effortless banter, Andres makes an interesting suggestion: that Bastian should get over the breakup by dating … Andres.
Sure, Andres is successful and attractive, but he also knows everything there is to know about Bastian—including what an insecure pain in the ass he is. Meanwhile, everyone in Bastian’s life, from his mother to his co-workers, thinks he’s an idiot for not having dated Andres already. So, what could go wrong?

Bail bondsman Jesse Sparks hasn’t had an easy ride. He barely survived life-shattering allegations levied against his integrity that blew up his career as an arson investigator, and a divorce that left him afraid of commitment. Now, he faces more life-changing events—his secret, and surprising, attraction to Ryan, the handsome bond recovery agent who works for him, and the arrival of his estranged seventeen-year-old genius son who wants to move to Las Vegas to attend grad school and insists on living with him.
Ryan Montgomery has had the hots for his boss since the day he started working for the man. One day, his very private boss admits his teen son is coming to live with him in Las Vegas and he hasn’t seen the boy since he was five, and Jesse has no idea how to deal with the young man. Getting to know Jesse on a personal level stokes Ryan’s own burning desire for the man—the man he believes is straight, so he can never call him his own.
As if hunting down criminals who try to avoid being tried for their crimes isn’t dangerous enough, someone from Jesse’s past comes seeking revenge. Can the threat be neutralized before someone close to Jesse becomes collateral damage?

Sam Walch has never tried to match up to his flashy, high-spirited twin brother Brad in anything—school, sports, or romance. Competing against Brad only led to disappointment and heartbreak, which is why Sam stayed in town after their mom’s death and let Brad take off for grander adventures. After years being stuck in neutral, Sam finally plans a dream trip to Malta to start a new chapter in his life. Too bad a hospital phone call about his long-lost brother comes just days before he’s due to step onto the plane.
Agent Nicolas Conti and his promotion-minded colleague Brad Walch had an easy gig: observe the target, seduce and infiltrate, and gather the intelligence needed to take down the guy’s boss. But a stupid accident lands Brad in the hospital instead of their target’s bed and leaves Nicolas holding the bag. With time on the op running out, he has no choice but to convince (okay, blackmail) Brad’s twin Sam to step in and cover, so they can finish this final job and punch his ticket to freedom.
The only problem? Sam is nothing like Brad, a fact Nicolas finds harder to ignore every passing day. The op seems doomed to fail, until Sam catches the target’s attention by being … himself. Now Nicolas has to decide which is more important: using Sam to get out of the spy game for good, or protecting the self-sacrificing man from everyone, including himself.

I’ve been in love with Hudson Nash for years, but he’s too stubborn to admit he wants me too. For a whole bunch of stupid reasons.
Like the fact I’m too young. (What’s a twenty-year gap? Age is just a number, am I right?)
And a virgin. (Which he could easily fix!)
And maybe not the best choice, given he and my dad hate each other. (It’s not that ba— Okay, it is that bad, but our love could totally rise above, right? It would be epic!)
I see the way he watches me like a starving man. The heat in his eyes when I flirt with him. The longing that he feels too.
If Hudson won’t stop pushing me away, I’m just going to have to show him what he’s missing.
I’ll flirt with the pretty boy tourists who come my way. Or maybe the gruff but sexy boat tour operators. Heck, I’ll flirt with the dang fish if that’s what it takes for Hudson to make a move.
I’ll be a total dock tease—until Hudson makes me his.

I’ve always known what my future had in store: inheriting the family ranch and having myself a wife and kids to carry on the Sullivan name. Porter Dixon never factored into those plans. We may have spent our teenage years sneaking away to lose ourselves in each other, but he always held me at arm’s length…until the day he up and left without so much as a goodbye.
PORTER DIXON
After everything I’ve lost in my life, it’s important that I keep myself tightly guarded. Especially around Bishop Sullivan. Dad would be rolling in his grave if he found out I was shacking up with a Sullivan, given the bad blood between our families. But eleven years after leaving, I’m back in Laurel Springs with something to prove: I don’t need the Sullivans, nor their land.
Except, damn it all, Bishop has this way of burrowing under my armor. The magnetic draw between us is still too hard to ignore, and what starts out as boss and ranch hand quickly turns into stolen moments and simmering encounters that make it hard to stay angry.
I want to think that love can conquer all and tame my wild heart…but the past isn’t so easy to forget.

But if there’s something to know about me, it’s that I’m a romantic to the core. So when my sad heart sets its sights on Rylan, the aloof, sexy-as-sin Alpha in the symphony, I know to keep my distance until the interest fades.
Except it doesn’t. And now, I’m forced to be his roommate due to an unfortunate water pipe bursting in my own apartment. Even worse? An Alpha has set his sights on me, and I’m powerless to resist.
I’m caught between two enigmatic Alphas while knowing that none of this can last. And the worst part? I know they’ll take what’s left of my decimated heart with them when they leave. How could they not? They’re Alphas, destined to match with an Omega.
And me?
I’m just a Beta.

The problem is finding a respectable alpha who will have him. That’s where the Perfect Match Agency comes in. They promise to match him with an upstanding member of society in exchange for a little publicity.

Act as the dude of honor for my best friend? On it. Play nice with her scheming groom? Sure. Sabotage the wedding so she doesn’t make the biggest mistake of her life? Someone has to.
The only obstacle is her fierce, over-the-top wedding planner. I can’t get distracted by Zye Roessler’s sass or kissable lips. Not when he’s fixing things faster than I can break them.
We’re both determined. I want to protect my friend. And Zye needs this wedding to save his business. Not that he believes in love or marriage. I mean, neither do I, but I’m not the one making a profit from other’s mistakes.
I have a plan, and it doesn’t include kissing Zye every chance I get.
Zye
Miles Gordon is a problem. A gorgeous, muscled, tempting problem. He loves riling me up, but it’s the continuous issues with the wedding that snag my attention.
The dress? The venue? Are these coincidences or a sexy mechanic’s warped sense of loyalty?
I’m used to setbacks: the kids in school ridiculing me for being different, hearing “Shut up, Zye” too many times, my mom dropping me off at my dad’s for the weekend…and never returning.
Despite Miles’s attempts to distract me and the mounting evidence that this marriage is a mistake, this wedding will happen.
My only focus is giving the bride her perfect wedding and saving my business.
No matter how safe and cared for I feel in Miles’s strong arms.

As a prince of Ostovan, I had everything I wanted: the finest wine in my cup, scores of attractive knights to duel and bed, and an endless library of books. I never even saw my brother’s betrayal coming.
Captured and stripped of my voice by a magical collar, I’m sold as a slave to a warband of elves. I’ll stop at nothing to get both my freedom and my voice back, even if it means risking death at the hands of my captors.
And none of my elvish captors is more dangerous—or alluring—than Prince Ruith. Deceptively charming and deviously brutal in his methods, Ruith’s only goal seems to be torturing me daily for his own entertainment.
The more time I’m forced to spend with him, the more I find I crave his particular brand of cruelty. Despite his treatment, I come to see Ruith as my protector…and maybe something more. There’s definitely a spark between us, one that could turn into an all-consuming inferno if I’m not careful.
But he’ll only ever see me as a pawn in his power games, and I can only afford to treat him like my enemy, especially if I want to get this collar off and return to Ostovan to kill my brother.
I will have my vengeance, even if it kills us both.

Everything up to this point has been easy compared to what lies ahead. The ultimate task will be having to give him up after four years, without crossing the line I’ve already come perilously close to crossing… Falling irrevocably in love with this apprehensive and wounded young man.
