There’s more to secrets than staying silent.
Cameron Jacobs doesn’t like to pry. At Tuesdays—the upscale restaurant where he works—he leaves his customers to their whispered conversations, which he does not overhear. His prudence is how he lands regulars like the handsome and mysterious man who requests Cam’s section every week like clockwork.
Julian Cross is good at keeping his many stories straight. Where he’s from. What he does for a living. Where he was at the time of the murder. His line of work doesn’t leave room for mistakes, like the one he wants to make with the charming, sexy, and most importantly, discrete waiter at his favorite restaurant.
Neither man wants a one-night stand, but even the brightest flames need fuel. Cameron desperately wants to know his lover better, but the answers to his questions could put them both in danger. As Julian’s past threatens to catch up with them, Cameron will have to decide whether he can handle the truth.

Picking a new name was easy. Finding himself? Not so much.
Starting university in a new city after coming out as trans is Orion’s best chance to press reset. It’s an opportunity to join clubs, make new friends, and forget who he used to be. But before he can find his feet at his very first Pride festival, he bumps into Sebastian Holmsted, the drummer for an all-queer local rock band called Cloudkillers – and a childhood crush he’s not-so-over.
At first, it seems as though Orion’s been given a chance to start over with Seb; his best friend and wingwoman Andy certainly thinks so. But when a crisis with another member results in Orion joining the band and the two of them grow closer than Orion could have dreamed of, past and present begin to intertwine. And when things start to become real between Seb and Orion, he finds himself wondering whether a relationship with Seb is truly what he wants after all.

Until I catch a lost kitten eyeing me in the last place an innocent guy like him should be.
The moment I see him, my plan for a mindless night vanishes, and I’m left begging for Cupid to shoot an arrow my way.
Beau
Valentine’s Day has always been about creating special memories for those near and dear to my heart. But this is the year of Beau and I decide it’s time to live up to my resolution to branch out and embrace the things I want.
That’s how I ended up inside Right Spot, looking like a deer in headlights, where I ran into the most beautiful man in the world. I’m shocked by his brazen attitude, stunned by the effect he has on me, and I find myself accepting an invitation for a night I won’t soon forget.

The Art of Love is risking your career for a fake engagement that could unravel your web of lies…
Rafe Hawthorne is a master glassblower with a commitment problem.

As much as he hates to admit it, his old rival, Jake Mathers, might be the only person who can help him level up his career.
And Rafe has something Jake desperately needs, too.
Jake has always been the charming sweet-talker with more talent than anyone else in the room. He has the connections, the know-how, and the ambition to take the glass world by storm. At least, everyone thinks he does. In reality, Jake has built his career on a mountain of lies. The only true things about him are his desire to move to the UK and his feelings for Rafe.
When all those lies suddenly unfurl, will the fallout take Rafe down, too, or will the two men come together to save each other and make the lies true?

stolen book. A desperate killer. And two very meddlesome parents.
Dashiell Dawson Dane might have a problem. It’s not a huge problem. In fact, all things considered, life is good—he’s got a wonderful boyfriend, fantastic friends, and a home where he’s genuinely happy, maybe for the first time ever. He’s even writing regularly. (Okay, mostly regularly.)
There is, however, the teensiest issue with money—in that, he doesn’t have any.
And it turns out Dash isn’t the only one strapped for cash. The Hastings Rock Public Library has recently been defunded by the mayor and the city council, and the town is in an uproar.
To keep the library open, Dash hosts a charity auction at Hemlock House. But disaster strikes when an exceptionally valuable book is stolen before the fundraiser can begin. And when Dash finds the mayor dead—and Hastings Rock’s head librarian refuses to provide an alibi—he quickly becomes tangled in yet another murder investigation.
How could things get any worse?
Oh. Right.
A surprise visit from his parents.

But a chance encounter leads to an unexpected hookup, and the chemistry between them is undeniable.
As Percy grapples with the emotional wreckage left by his father’s arrest, and Rob struggles with his own self-doubts, their fling starts to feel like something more.

Working at the youth shelter gave him the joy his ex tried to take away. When Nick finds someone who needs help, who needs more than anything to just be seen, it will change both of their lives forever.

Until I got the opportunity to return to the life I was abruptly torn away from. It’s a no-brainer as far as I’m concerned. I’m not done living yet.

My first assignment comes all too quickly, and I’m thrown into a dangerous world where a man’s life is in my inexperienced hands. The Horror attached to Hudson Davis is particularly nasty with a vendetta that even death didn’t resolve.
Hudson is terrified, rightfully so, and if I’m honest so am I, but there’s too much on the line for me to back out now. Not just my continued journey in the Above, but the chance at something that eluded me my first go round at life—love.
To save Hudson, I have to face Malice head on and not get myself killed. Again. If I’m successful, maybe the tormented and guarded man I’m quickly falling for can see how real our connection is and I can make the most of my second chance at life.

It was supposed to be a quiet night of gaming. But then the power went out. No biggie—it happens here in Queens.
So, I went to grab food. That’s when everything went to hell.
My house was attacked. My aunt handed me a mysterious box, told me a code phrase and sent me running into the night to a secret meeting spot. There, I was supposed to wait for the call.
It came. Oh, did it. And with it a giant masked man who claimed he’s here to save me.
I tried to fight him—I’m suspicious by nature. But the only big thing about me is my mouth.
And besides, once he explained everything and took off that mask?
Yeah, you bet I’m seducing that hottie.

So, I must take things into my own hands. And that includes the sassy, conspiracy-loving disaster of a witness that I get tasked with protecting. He’s shameless, a handful, and a bit crazy. He’s the first man I find cute. And he believes me. So, when he offers a trade that benefits us both, I don’t think twice.
The only caveat? The CIA can’t know what we are up to or we’ll both end up in jail.

When Nolan is asked to be his brother’s best man, there’s no bowing out. Not even when going home means facing everything he enlisted to escape.
Though Riley doesn’t know exactly why Nolan balks at going home, he offers to come with him as backup. In exchange, Nolan will come with him as his “boyfriend” in a last ditch effort to get Riley’s parents to accept, once and for all, that their son is gay.
Nolan takes him up on it, but he’s terrified that the truth about his past will come out… and the man he’s falling for will leave.

Even a pacifist vampire can be pushed too far. Threatening his love is a hard limit.
Vampire Creed Lowell’s life was altered fifty years ago at the hands of an ancient being known only as The Source, right before rogue members of the cult he belonged to destroyed their way of life. Just as Creed discovers the identity of the responsible party for that terrible tragedy, temptation is placed in his path in the form of grad student Roman San Angelo, a stubborn, proud, infuriating man who’s everything Creed ever wanted in a partner. When Creed’s past catches up to them, Roman is snatched from his grasp and Creed is forced into hiding, saddled with the care of his former mentor. He’s the only one strong enough to heal them and prevent a catastrophic event, though his rage builds the longer he’s kept from his love.
When Roman’s safety is threatened once more, the two are finally reunited, and Creed is devastated to see the physical effects of Roman’s run-in with The Source. He wants nothing more than to secret Roman away and share whatever time they have left on this Earth in peace. But once again, Creed is forced to sacrifice everything when an old enemy sets their sights on his unique genetic makeup and skills.
This time, it’s Creed who’s taken, and Roman will do whatever it takes to rescue him, even if it means trusting the being that nearly ended his life. With the help of Roman’s long-suffering uncle, a determined FBI agent, and a mysterious benefactor with a multitude of resources at his disposal, they’ll need to bring down a shadowy financial powerhouse and put an end to their villainy before it’s too late for Creed to have a life with his beloved.

Edin
One mistake can ruin your life. I learned that at fifteen when my hormones got the best of me and I was landed with an unwanted pregnancy. My parents decided to punish me and forced me out of the sport I love to raise my child and provide for my newly forced-upon-us-both marriage.
One mistake can cost a life. My life. If not for my best friend who rescued me and my daughter, I’d have ended it all.
It’s been three years and all I want is to embrace this new lease I have on life – my daughter, school, and hockey.
One mistake can change your life. When an “adult” job leads to some complications, I realize that maybe I didn’t build my walls high enough to keep everyone out.
Elijah
My obsession started through a screen as I edited the videos my fraternity’s basement project Confessions produces. His name is Edin and I’m enthralled. While I don’t participate in shoots often, I make an exception.
Edin is everything – Beautiful, mysterious, needy. He’s also very clearly broken. The very first time we’re together on screen, he breaks down after the shoot and I hold him for what feels like days as he trembles.
He refuses to let me into his life, no matter how many times I partner with him or run into him completely coincidentally. That is, until he has a hockey accident that leaves him bed-ridden and he needs help with his daughter.

Sven is a sucker for sad eyes, thick thighs, and a Royal Cosmopolitan. He scores the trifecta of trouble when a broody hunk buys him a drink. Sparks fly, passions flare, and a simple kiss becomes a four-alarm blaze until an untimely interruption douses the men with an icy reality, pitting loyalty against lust.
They shouldn’t… They couldn’t… Spoiler alert: they do!
It was supposed to be one and done but memories of their shared encounter won’t let go. A single text triggers two years of conversations, healing, and an endearing friendship that could blossom into something precious if Dom and Sven were brave enough to take a chance.
An unexpected invitation could provide the nudge their scarred hearts need. Exploring their reignited passion for two weeks in Vail would be a heavenly hideaway if not for a hellish houseguest’s resolve to cause trouble. Family rifts and uncomfortable confrontations abound, and embracing a future with Sven means Dom must face his past. Is their love strong enough to withstand the fire, or will they go down in flames?
