BLURB:
There’s only one thing better than being popular, well liked, and the most attractive person on campus—it’s being the object of his desire.
I was overlooked most of my life. Quiet, nerdy, and someone people didn’t notice. But he saw me. Adrian Kennedy was kind where others were indifferent. He laughed, not at me, but because of me. Because he believed I was the funniest person he knew. I was myself with him—stripped bare, exposed. Raw and open in a way I’ve never known since. I was his, and he was mine.
But I was a secret. Perhaps an experiment. Pushed aside when things got too scary. Too real. His kindness turned into cruelty, not because of words he said, but because he was unaware of what his rejection felt like.
Years later, he’s made his way into my life once more. He’s married now. To a woman who will never know him the way I did. The way I still do. He’s lying to her and himself, and becoming my neighbor is sure to expose everything, because he is mine, and I am his—the keeper of his secret.

“How petty would I be if I brought a boyfriend home to meet my dad who was almost the same age as him?”

And it helps that Monty is not only ridiculously good looking, but he’s smart, kind, and has an accent that makes Bronx weak in the knees. He’s also an amazing distraction from the fact that Bronx’s husband up and left him and his son without warning, turning their lives upside down.
But what starts as game quickly becomes something else, because as much as Bronx was sure he had no more heart to give, Monty turns out to be everything he had once looked for in a partner.
It’s too bad Monty isn’t interested…

He didn’t plan on being blackmailed into giving sword lessons to a chronically responsible—and inconveniently handsome—wool merchant like Matti.
However, neither Matti’s business troubles nor Luca himself are quite what they seem. As the days count down to Matti’s wedding, the two of them become entangled in the intrigue and sabotage that have brought Matti’s house to the brink of ruin.

Daniel Ridley is a newly ordained missionary, raised in the heart of the separatist South and in ignorance of the broader world. He is sent to Boston as a missionary for the Christian Nationalist Evangelicals to preach the Word of God and to advocate for a government based on religious scripture. He’s not sure why God chose to burden him with same-sex attraction, but he’s confident his faith will give him the strength to resist that temptation. But he’s not prepared for the hostility he faces up North, and his secret mission—to find an elusive killer and bring him to justice—only complicates his task.
Jaxtyn Keller is a young gay man and perpetual college student who leads a Buddhist worship group at his university in Boston. He believes everything in the universe is connected, and everything happens for a reason. Unlike most of the citizens in his terrorism-plagued city, he’s convinced the only way to hold the country together is for both sides to truly see each other.
The two men meet by chance, and each sees in the other an opportunity to achieve his goal.
As the national crisis accelerates, however, Daniel’s cherished beliefs collide with the harsh reality of separatist violence, and he is soon torn between duty to his church and his growing feelings for Jaxtyn.

RELEASE DATE: 10/8/2024
BLURB:
I was a man without a family… or so I thought.
I came to tiny Majestic, Wyoming, to escape misfortune: the loss of my brother; my parents’ blame for it; the billion-dollar secret that caused it all.
I find peace in my horses, in my friends, in quiet nights alone… and sometimes in remembering a scorching-hot one-night-stand from two years ago.
But everything changes when Tully Bowman, the man behind that unforgettable encounter, turns up in Majestic bringing me the daughter I’ve inherited (along with her multi-million-dollar trust fund).
Just like that, my peace becomes chaos, my quiet nights are filled with little Lellie’s cries for “Daddy,” and the heat between Tully and me becomes more than just a memory.
Because it seems Tully’s planning to stick around… at least until I prove I’m a “suitable father” and not the fortune-hunter Lellie’s grandparents think I am. And the longer we spend together–the more he challenges and provokes me, comforts and calms me–the harder it is to remember why I ever thought one night would be enough.
I’m a bad bet for fatherhood, but if I choose to keep Lellie and raise her as my own, it won’t be for her money. It will be because this precious girl and the man who brought her to me might be the fresh start and new family my heart has been looking for.
And because the best thing that ever happened to me might just be… Inheriting Miss Fortune.

As fate would have it, we’re paired together for a sequence of Star-Crossed Lovers skits, and while I’m excited at the prospect of spending more time with him, with rumors of team cuts at the end of the season, it makes me wonder if there is any point in starting anything at all. Maybe we’re just destined to stay on opposing sides.
Ryan
Being on the other side of the world from your entire family is hard, especially when you see everyone else going home to theirs every night. So, when I moved in with Duckie and Ian, I was excited to at least have people to come home to.
But they aren’t the only ones I see every day. Across the alley lives an old man and his cat who greet me with a demonic howl and a gruff reminder that my favorite game isn’t “real” baseball.
Good thing I’m not easily offended, and while I might be still on the fence about the cat, imagine my surprise when I discover the old man is Alan Beaker’s grandfather. Suddenly, my days aren’t just filled with on field practice and rehearsals with the guy I’ve been crushing on hard, they’re also filled with time spent with him off the field too.
It isn’t long until I notice just how devoted to family Alan is, and the more time I spend with his, the more they make me feel like I belong. Now if only I can get Alan to take a chance on us, then I can make this feeling last forever.

I had no idea what to expect from my first experiment with the Dark Fantasies Club. A good time that tickled some of my deeper desires? An easy way to indulge during heat without consequences? A chance to explore the more subservient part of my personality? I knew anything was possible.
What I didn’t expect was to end up at the center of someone else’s family drama…or to want to be a part of it with my whole heart.

Playing around with a random omega from the Dark Fantasies Club was supposed to help me let off some steam, not make me hotter than I’ve ever been before. But Simon isn’t like any other omega, and too big a part of me wants him to belong to me for real. The timing couldn’t be worse, though. Not when, after all these years, my corrupt uncle finally opened a door for me to take over the family business and set it back on the right track.
But doing the right thing with Victory Holdings comes with more danger than I ever thought possible, and when Simon becomes a pawn at the center of the game, I would do anything to protect the omega I wasn’t supposed to fall in love with.

But I was chasing my dream all across America, and Lee was tied to our hometown. Hell, I was too old for him anyway, even then. So I left, and the connection we’d had withered and died, except sometimes in the lyrics I wrote. Now I’m back home and I’ve met him again at the lowest point in my life. He’s still gorgeous and kind, but I’m battered and faded and paying for my mistakes. He can do way better.

Now Griffin’s back and he’s a silver fox, still unfairly hot and talented. I lost my sister years ago, and my life is far less complicated. But, despite Griffin’s current disaster, he’ll be heading off soon to concerts like Rocktoberfest and the wide musical world. Letting myself fall for him again would mean another round of being left behind. I’m not going to do that to myself, no matter how much I want to erase the shadows from Griffin’s eyes.

Having a bi-awakening in my 50s was a shock. Joel came out of nowhere and rocked my foundation. As a widower too, he understood me in a way no one else ever has. Being with Joel wasn’t only my first time with a man, he’s also polyamorous, and kinky. I thought meeting his other boyfriend would make it easier for me. But, never in a million years did I expect his boyfriend to be Cameron, my son’s best friend.
Cameron:
After moving to New York and becoming a make-up artist, it took a lot to surprise me. Those Broadway types are wild! Joel’s other man, my best friend’s sexy, and very straight dad, Luke, was the curveball I never imagined. Joel cared about him a lot. Why wouldn’t he? He’s one of the best men I’ve ever met! Plus, did I mention sexy? Being my best friend’s dad wasn’t an issue because it wasn’t like we were dating. I just needed Luke to see it that way to stop him from hurting Joel.
Joel:
After losing my soul mate, my late husband, I never thought I’d find love again. Luke and Cameron bulldozed their way into my life, and I found myself falling head over heels for them both. Once we got over the shock of who Cameron was to Luke, it became obvious just how good we were together. All three of us together, not just me with each of them. On paper, we had to look strange, but with all the recent talk of fated mates and all the other changes in the world, I had to wonder, could Cameron and Luke be mine?
