How to handle a grumpy vet?…
Ryde
I’ve been crushing on my boss, Linus, for years now. So when my best friend, Dario, starts working at the clinic for six months, I know he can help me. He’s way better with guys than I am. I’m excited. Things with Linus might finally progress.
Dario
I’m an idiot for thinking moving to Scuttlebutt would help me get over my feelings for my bestie. All it does is amplify them even more. As if things weren’t messy enough, I catch feelings for my new boss, Linus. Oh boy. If I’m not careful, I could lose my best friend and my job.
Linus
Ryde is my best mate’s son and my employee. Dario is his best friend and also my employee. They’re very different, yet I’m attracted to both of them. But I’m a closed-off grump, used to being alone. I’ve never been able to open up to one guy—how on earth am I supposed to make it work with two?

But when the Kasyovan Bureau arrests Reis, what should be the end turns into an unexpected new beginning: an invitation to lead the very country they’ve been fighting to save. Inducted into the Shadow Government, Reis becomes a reluctant President, aware they’re a pawn, but powerless to say no. The Shadow Government has leverage…and a secret weapon: a powerful
AI named Oracle, whose capability even surprises Edgar.
As Reis takes the helm, they uncover a darker truth—Nation Builders, Inc. (formerly the Killing Committee) is operating out of the ruins of the former seat of government, the Pyramid, to manipulate global regimes. And they’ve built their own AI.
Now, Reis must outwit the puppet masters who shattered their home, confront betrayals on every front, and hold on to Edgar—and their dream of a free, reunified Twin City-States of Anver-Kasyova.

Wesley Barlowe has it all. He’s a highly successful divorce attorney at one of Boston’s most prestigious law firms. His name is on the rosters of many elite clubs, his clothes are from famed designers, and his historic duplex overlooks Boston Common. His lovers are few and far between by choice, his car is a sporty hybrid, and his bourbon is always aged in white oak barrels. There are no surprises in Wesley’s tightly structured life. Until his estranged sister dies, leaving her three-year-old daughter in his custody. With no other family to pass the child off to, Wesley has no other option but to take his niece into his home.
Instead of spending his days in court and his nights at home studying briefs while sipping on triple mash twenty-year-old whiskey, he now finds himself joining single-parent online groups, waffling about how to handle temper tantrums, and how to entertain a rambunctious preschooler. During a particularly rough morning, she spies a musician on the Common singing to a small group of children. At his wit’s end, he carries his niece across the street and discovers that not only do the children seated on rainbow blankets adore the handsome, funny, and charming performer, but Wesley does too. There is something incredibly calming and warm about Lennon Cole and his silly songs. Something that will show the workaholic that there is more to life than litigations, courtroom wins, and million-dollar settlements.

Nicholas
I’m the spare, the younger brother of the Prince of Wales. Ever since I was propelled up the order of succession, my job description has been: Exist. Don’t embarrass the Crown. Repeat.
After a security scandal, I’m assigned a new bodyguard. A hulking, brooding Irishman who glowers at me like I’ve personally offended his ancestors. He’s the first to be completely immune to my charm, which is rather inconvenient when you’ve always wielded wit like a defensive weapon.
And why I feel the need to continue trying to impress Officer O’Connell is anyone’s guess.
My upcoming royal tour of Australia and New Zealand should be a nice chance to escape the British winter and bask in some Southern Hemisphere sunshine. But it turns out that representing the monarchy in former colonial countries means confronting some uncomfortable truths about how all those Crown Jewels ended up in my family’s vaults.
And the whole visit would really be far more enjoyable if someone wasn’t trying to kill me.
Eoin
I’ve clawed my way from the slums of Ireland to the top level of Scotland Yard’s undercover agents. But a deep security breach within the force has me investigating my own colleagues while playing bodyguard to a privileged prince on a tour Down Under.
Something about Prince Nicholas gets under my skin like shrapnel I can’t dig out.
Still, I’m a professional. I can handle one posh git with a smart mouth.
But as we navigate koala cuddling sessions, didgeridoo lessons, and deadly spiders in hotel rooms, I see beneath Nicholas’s princely façade. I’m supposed to uncover which of my fellow bodyguards is a threat to Prince Nicholas, not become obsessed with the most complex, fascinating pain in my arse I’ve ever met.
The line between duty and desire blurs with each passing day and the danger to Nicholas intensifies.
How can I maintain my cover, protect Nicholas, and resist the urge to press him against the nearest wall and kiss that smirk off his face?

Still, after all that, not one of them truly knows me.
It’s my fault. I’m a withdrawn hoarder of secrets. A shadowman, dwelling on the sidelines, damned to this pit of despair for reasons I still can’t accept.
Being the outsider in a group of weirdos isn’t always fun. After all, if no one sees me, do I even exist?
Okay, let’s not go there.
I’m resenting my permanent sidekick status when a distraction arrives. A newcomer—tall, mysterious, and severely beautiful, with black hair and violet eyes. His abrupt arrival has my prison pals suspicious. But not me. I’m instantly intrigued by that peculiar gaze, following me like nothing has before.
He actually sees me. And it’s intoxicating.
Trevel Fenwick could be an ally. Maybe he could be… more.
My body sure seems to think so. But the brighter he lights me up, the deeper he slips into the shadows himself.
What is this striking stranger hiding behind that charming accent and penetrating stare? Why is his need to seek revenge so strong? And can we fight past our demons enough to become real partners in crime?
When a brutal storm ravages Alabaster Isle, we’re left sifting through the rubble. The fences are down. Stress cracks in the foundation, secrets escape, fragile loyalties tested. But the war is far from over…
In fact, it’s only just begun.

BLURB:
There Miles stood…
Relationship over.
No car.
No place to live.
And no hope for his future.
And then a gorgeous, avenging angel appears. And not just any angel. The father of his ex-girlfriend. But it can’t mean what Miles wants it to mean, right? After all, Emmett is married to an equally gorgeous man: a pediatric cardiac surgeon with abs of steel and a glare that could melt diamonds.
There isn’t a chance in hell Miles is getting involved with them. Not even when Emmett and Cosimo take him in. Not even when they start flirting.
Not even when he starts realizing their relationship dynamic is not what he thought it was.
Emmett and Cosimo are the actual dream. A fantasy he conjured up once when he was lonely and not sure anyone was going to want him for who he was. But the more he gets to know the pair, the more he starts to have hope.
And hope is a dangerous thing.
As Miles starts to crack and he feels himself start giving in to their attention, he realizes that his own salvation might come at the hands of sharp tongues, tender hands, and the promise of an absolute happily ever after.

What begins as a soothing arrangement deepens into something more. George finds comfort in Cyrus’s calming presence, easy smile, and his ability to always fix things, but Cyrus insists he’s not the relationship type.
When a ghost from George’s past returns, Cyrus must decide if he’ll step aside or claim his own happily ever after.

For years Jeremy and his best friend Haven kept their bond strong despite the bricks, bars and bulletproof glass that separated them during their weekly visit, but it hadn’t just been Haven that Jeremy had gone to the prison to see. Jeremy had been crushing on Grayson since he first laid eyes on the man, and the fire hadn’t dimmed as Grayson had served his time.
Freedom had never tasted as sweet or been so hard won. Eight years was a long stretch to serve, but seeing his best friend’s son every week and bunking with the man Jeremy loved like a brother, had given him a special insight into the man he’d become.
Now the two of them were working together in Haven’s shop as the kid he’d once protected became his boss. Grayson considered that debt paid now and all slates wiped clean. Finally able to get back on his feet and reestablish himself in the community, his next step is to lay claim to the man he loves.
