<div style="text-align: center;">
<br />
Driven by his desire to become a successful fashion designer and concerned with
hiding his questionable past, Ru Maitland lets his obsession with action movie star
Gray Anson on the big screen replace his social life. Then obsession and reality
collide when Ru is asked to design fashion costumes for a special performance of
Hamlet at the Playhouse in Laguna starring none other than Gray Anson. Gray turns
out to be a compelling mix of shy and brash and, despite a high profile engagement
to a female socialite, the signals Gray sends Ru have his libido doing the salsa.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Gray Anson has what most people only dream of—great wealth, huge fame, a job he
loves. For that, he’s given up any semblance of privacy and the right to say no to the
thousands of people who depend on him and the millions who love him. He sees
everything he’s ever wanted just outside the bubble of his life, but how can he make
the compromises needed to embrace it? When Ru’s shady past crashes into Gray’s
paparazzi-haunted present, both men have to learn that sometimes the only
acceptable compromise is the truth. </div>

<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Honor, integrity, and loyalty are how Deputy US Marshal Kreed Sinacola lives his life. A former SEAL now employed by the Special Operations Group of the US Marshal Service, Kreed spent most of his life working covert operations and avoiding relationships. Never one to mix business with pleasure, his boundaries blur and his convictions are put to the test when he finally comes face-to-face with the hot computer geek he’s been partnered with. Hell-bent on closing the ongoing case for his longtime friend, he pushes past his own limits and uncovers more than he expects.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Aaron Stuart strives for one thing: justice. Young and full of idealism, his highly sought after computer skills land him a position with the National Security Agency. Aaron’s biggest hazard at his job is cramped fingers, but all that changes when he is drawn into the middle of a dangerous federal investigation. Aaron gets more than he bargained for when the FBI partners him with a handsome and tempting deputy US marshal. His attraction to the inked up, dark-haired man provides another kind of threat altogether. Aaron tries desperately to place a firewall around his heart and fight his developing feelings, knowing one misstep on his part could ultimately destroy him.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">
</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">The solution isn’t as easy as solving the case, which is treacherous enough as it is. But the growing sexual attraction between them threatens to derail more than just Kreed’s personal convictions as he quickly learns temptation and matters of the heart rarely fit easily into the rules he’s lived by. Will Kreed be able to convince Aaron to open his heart and face the fact that sometimes the answers aren’t always hidden in code?</span><br />

Colt and Jace is still my fav couple within the series but Aaron is by far my favorite character. All nerdy and badass, slick as shit on the sly. The jealousy between Colt and Mitch is beyond hilarious, poor Jace and Cody. Big badass Kreed being brought down by a leg cramp was epic……</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Best Selling Author Kindle Alexander is an innovative writer, and a genre-crosser who writes classic fantasy, romance, suspense, and erotica in both the male/male and male/female genres. It's always a surprise to see what's coming next!</span></div>

<div style="text-align: left;">
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">I live in the suburbs of Dallas where it's true, the only thing bigger than an over active imagination, may be women's hair!</span></div>
</div>

<div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Usually, I try for funny. Humor is a major part of my life - I love to laugh, and it seems to be the thing I do in most situations - regardless of the situation, but jokes are a tricky deal... I don't want to offend anyone and jokes tend to offend. So instead I'm going to tell you about Kindle.</span></div>

<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">I tragically lost my sixteen year old daughter to a drunk driver. She had just been at home, it was early in the night and I heard the accident happen. I'll never forget that moment. The sirens were immediate and something inside me just knew. I left my house, drove straight to the accident on nothing more than instinct. I got to be there when my little girl died - weirdly, I consider that a true gift from above. She didn't have to be alone.</span></div>

<div style="text-align: left;">
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">That time in my life was terrible. It's everything you think it would be times about a billion. I love that kid. I loved being her mother and I loved watching her grow into this incredibly beautiful person, both inside and out. She was such a gift to me. To have it all ripped away so suddenly broke me.</span></div>

<div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Her name was Kindle. Honest to goodness - it was her name and she died a few weeks before Amazon released their brand new Kindle ereader. She had no idea it was coming out and she would have finally gotten her name on something! Try finding a ruler with the name Kindle on it.. It never happened.</span></div>

<div style="text-align: left;">
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Through the course of that crippling event I was lucky enough to begin to write with a dear friend in the fan fiction world of Facebook. She got me through those dark days with her unwavering support and friendship. There wasn't a time she wasn't there for me. Sometimes together and sometimes by myself, we built a world where Kindle lives and stands for peace, love and harmony. It's its own kind of support group. I know without question I wouldn't be here today without her.</span></div>

<div style="orphans: auto; text-align: start; text-indent: 0px; widows: 1;">
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Honor, integrity, and loyalty are how Deputy US Marshal Kreed Sinacola lives his life. A former SEAL now employed by the Special Operations Group of the US Marshal Service, Kreed spent most of his life working covert operations and avoiding relationships. Never one to mix business with pleasure, his boundaries blur and his convictions are put to the test when he finally comes face-to-face with the hot computer geek he’s been partnered with. Hell-bent on closing the ongoing case for his longtime friend, he pushes past his own limits and uncovers more than he expects.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">
</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Aaron Stuart strives for one thing: justice. Young and full of idealism, his highly sought after computer skills land him a position with the National Security Agency. Aaron’s biggest hazard at his job is cramped fingers, but all that changes when he is drawn into the middle of a dangerous federal investigation. Aaron gets more than he bargained for when the FBI partners him with a handsome and tempting deputy US marshal. His attraction to the inked up, dark-haired man provides another kind of threat altogether. Aaron tries desperately to place a firewall around his heart and fight his developing feelings, knowing one misstep on his part could ultimately destroy him.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">
</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">The solution isn’t as easy as solving the case, which is treacherous enough as it is. But the growing sexual attraction between them threatens to derail more than just Kreed’s personal convictions as he quickly learns temptation and matters of the heart rarely fit easily into the rules he’s lived by. Will Kreed be able to convince Aaron to open his heart and face the fact that sometimes the answers aren’t always hidden in code?</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">“You’re so fucking sexy with those fuck-me-I’m-so-smart glasses on and that intense look on your face.”</span><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">
</span><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Aaron glanced up and narrowed his eyes as he shoved the glasses off to the top of his head and stretched out his back. There was just something about the big, gorgeous deputy marshal growling those words at him that made his dick want to come out and play. A tired yawn from hours of sitting behind his laptop slipped free as he rubbed his eyes.</span><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">
</span><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">“And those noises you make are a complete turn-on.”</span><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">

</span><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">“I have a feeling it doesn’t take much to turn you on. A slight gust of wind would probably have you at full mast,” Aaron teased, lowering the lid to his laptop.</span></blockquote>

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Usually, I try for funny. Humor is a major part of my life - I love to laugh, and it seems to be the thing I do in most situations - regardless of the situation, but jokes are a tricky deal... I don't want to offend anyone and jokes tend to offend. So instead I'm going to tell you about Kindle.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I tragically lost my sixteen year old daughter to a drunk driver. She had just been at home, it was early in the night and I heard the accident happen. I'll never forget that moment. The sirens were immediate and something inside me just knew. I left my house, drove straight to the accident on nothing more than instinct. I got to be there when my little girl died - weirdly, I consider that a true gift from above. She didn't have to be alone.</span></div>

<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">That time in my life was terrible. It's everything you think it would be times about a billion. I love that kid. I loved being her mother and I loved watching her grow into this incredibly beautiful person, both inside and out. She was such a gift to me. To have it all ripped away so suddenly broke me.</span></div>

<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Her name was Kindle. Honest to goodness - it was her name and she died a few weeks before Amazon released their brand new Kindle ereader. She had no idea it was coming out and she would have finally gotten her name on something! Try finding a ruler with the name Kindle on it.. It never happened.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Through the course of that crippling event I was lucky enough to begin to write with a dear friend in the fan fiction world of Facebook. She got me through those dark days with her unwavering support and friendship. There wasn't a time she wasn't there for me. Sometimes together and sometimes by myself, we built a world where Kindle lives and stands for peace, love and harmony. It's its own kind of support group. I know without question I wouldn't be here today without her.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Honor, integrity, and loyalty are how Deputy US Marshal Kreed Sinacola lives his life. A former SEAL now employed by the Special Operations Group of the US Marshal Service, Kreed spent most of his life working covert operations and avoiding relationships. Never one to mix business with pleasure, his boundaries blur and his convictions are put to the test when he finally comes face-to-face with the hot computer geek he’s been partnered with. Hell-bent on closing the ongoing case for his longtime friend, he pushes past his own limits and uncovers more than he expects.
Aaron Stuart strives for one thing: justice. Young and full of idealism, his highly sought after computer skills land him a position with the National Security Agency. Aaron’s biggest hazard at his job is cramped fingers, but all that changes when he is drawn into the middle of a dangerous federal investigation. Aaron gets more than he bargained for when the FBI partners him with a handsome and tempting deputy US marshal. His attraction to the inked up, dark-haired man provides another kind of threat altogether. Aaron tries desperately to place a firewall around his heart and fight his developing feelings, knowing one misstep on his part could ultimately destroy him.
The solution isn’t as easy as solving the case, which is treacherous enough as it is. But the growing sexual attraction between them threatens to derail more than just Kreed’s personal convictions as he quickly learns temptation and matters of the heart rarely fit easily into the rules he’s lived by. Will Kreed be able to convince Aaron to open his heart and face the fact that sometimes the answers aren’t always hidden in code?</span></div>

<blockquote class="tr_bq">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">“You’re so fucking sexy with those fuck-me-I’m-so-smart glasses on and that intense look on your face.”
</span><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">
</span><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Aaron glanced up and narrowed his eyes as he shoved the glasses off to the top of his head and stretched out his back. There was just something about the big, gorgeous deputy marshal growling those words at him that made his dick want to come out and play. A tired yawn from hours of sitting behind his laptop slipped free as he rubbed his eyes.
</span><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">
</span><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">“And those noises you make are a complete turn-on.”</span><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">
</span><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">
</span><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">“I have a feeling it doesn’t take much to turn you on. A slight gust of wind would probably have you at full mast,” Aaron teased, lowering the lid to his laptop.</span></blockquote>

<div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Usually, I try for funny. Humor is a major part of my life - I love to laugh, and it seems to be the thing I do in most situations - regardless of the situation, but jokes are a tricky deal... I don't want to offend anyone and jokes tend to offend. So instead I'm going to tell you about Kindle.</span></div>

<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I tragically lost my sixteen year old daughter to a drunk driver. She had just been at home, it was early in the night and I heard the accident happen. I'll never forget that moment. The sirens were immediate and something inside me just knew. I left my house, drove straight to the accident on nothing more than instinct. I got to be there when my little girl died - weirdly, I consider that a true gift from above. She didn't have to be alone.</span></div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">
</span></div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">That time in my life was terrible. It's everything you think it would be times about a billion. I love that kid. I loved being her mother and I loved watching her grow into this incredibly beautiful person, both inside and out. She was such a gift to me. To have it all ripped away so suddenly broke me.</span></div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">
</span></div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Her name was Kindle. Honest to goodness - it was her name and she died a few weeks before Amazon released their brand new Kindle ereader. She had no idea it was coming out and she would have finally gotten her name on something! Try finding a ruler with the name Kindle on it.. It never happened.</span></div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">
</span></div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Through the course of that crippling event I was lucky enough to begin to write with a dear friend in the fan fiction world of Facebook. She got me through those dark days with her unwavering support and friendship. There wasn't a time she wasn't there for me. Sometimes together and sometimes by myself, we built a world where Kindle lives and stands for peace, love and harmony. It's its own kind of support group. I know without question I wouldn't be here today without her.</span></div>

<span id="freeText7835236395727976515">Jason Walker is a child
star turned teen heartthrob turned reluctant B-movie regular who’s sick
of his failing career. So he gives up Hollywood for northern Idaho, far
away from the press, the drama of LA, and the best friend he’s secretly
been in love with for years.<br /><br />There’s only one problem with his
new life: a strange young man only he can see is haunting his
guesthouse. Except Benjamin Ward isn’t a ghost. He’s a man caught out of
time, trapped since the Civil War in a magical prison where he can only
watch the lives of those around him. He’s also sweet, funny, and cute
as hell, with an affinity for cheesy ’80s TV shows. And he’s thrilled to
finally have someone to talk to.<br /><br />But Jason quickly discovers
that spending all his time with a man nobody else can see or hear isn’t
without its problems—especially when the tabloids find him again and
make him front-page news. The local sheriff thinks he’s on drugs, and
his best friend thinks he’s crazy. But Jason knows he hasn’t lost his
mind. Too bad he can’t say the same thing about his heart.<br /><br />-----------------------<br /><br />Twenty
percent of the proceeds from this title will be donated to the Gay,
Lesbian, Bisexual and Transgender (GLBT) National Help Center.<br /><br />Founded
in 1996, the GLBT National Help Center is a non-profit organization
that provides vital peer-support, community connections and resource
information to people with questions regarding sexual orientation and/or
gender identity. Utilizing a diverse group of GLBT volunteers, they
operate two national hotlines, the GLBT National Hotline and the GLBT
National Youth Talkline, as well as private, volunteer one-to-one online
chat, that help both youth and adults with coming-out issues, safer-sex
information, school bullying, family concerns, relationship problems
and a lot more.<br /><br />To learn more about this charity or to donate directly, please visit their website: <a href="http://www.glbthotline.org/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">http://www.glbthotline.org/</a></span><br />

<span style="color: magenta;">This book is completely magical. So very different then anything I've read before, Ms. Sexton takes us on a magical journey of discovery and it will change the way you look at snowglobes forever. Its a love story that crosses boundaries never set before,, it crosses decades in a way that I'm still asking "how did she do that?" Welcome to Jason and Ben's journey...and be ready to believe in magic.</span><br />

<b><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; font-size: 12.0pt; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";">Dan Sharp scours Toronto’s seamy underbelly after the murder
of a notorious nightspot owner, and finds his own life on the line.</span></b><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; font-size: 12.0pt; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";"><br />
<br />
When Yuri Malevski, owner of notorious country-and-western bar The Saddle and
Bridle, is found dead in his Parkdale mansion, missing-persons investigator Dan
Sharp is reluctant to interfere in what he sees as police business. At first,
Malevski’s sleazy lifestyle and shady associates make the murder look like an
open-and-shut case, but Dan reconsiders after being approached by a couple who
say Malevski was killed by cops over protection money.<br />
<br />
When vulnerable people who had frequented the dead man’s bar begin to
disappear, Dan feels compelled to jump in feet first. Following a lead, his
investigation takes him into the heart of Toronto’s gay community, where he
confronts its down-and-outs — transients, drug dealers, and con artists — and
soon finds his own life threatened as his search brings him closer to a killer. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Duke Morgan owns and operates one of the largest bail bond companies in Atlanta. Not only does he bond criminals out of jail, he and his notorious group of bounty hunters will also track them down and ensure they show up for court.
Roman ‘Quick’ Webb is Duke’s business partner and best friend. Both men are in their forties and have given up on the happily ever after with the ranch-style home, and white picket fence. They’d both tried it and failed miserably. But they have their friendship and they have the business.
When Quick’s son, Vaughan Webb returns – after seven years - from studying abroad with his law degree in hand, he’s back to claim what he’s always wanted…his fathers’ best friend… Duke Morgan. Vaughan has always claimed to be a classic gentleman with an old soul. He didn’t party and screw up in school like his buddies. He was focused and dedicated to becoming the man worthy of Duke’s love.
It’s a complex and messy situation as Duke and Quick figure out how to still be best friends when one of them is sleeping with his friend’s one and only son. But when Duke is hurt on the job, all the unimportant trivialities fall to the wayside and Vaughan and Quick put their heads together to save Duke.
Part I of the Promises story is about Duke and Vaughan. Part II will be about Quick and his realization that it’s not too late for any of them to find love. </span>

Long before he was a successful songwriter and black-belt badass, Blue was a survivor.
He escaped a program designed to cure him. One that left him near death with nothing to rely on but the kindness of a stranger. Hostile and headstrong, he needed a calmer influence to balance his fury. Someone to save him from himself.
Brady’s life was quiet and orderly until fate sent him a blue-eyed hurricane. Bursts of temper and flashes of despair battered his efforts to quiet the storm in a man he doubted he could tame. One drowning in the wreckage of his past.
With a head full of lies and a body full of scars, Blue worked to rebuild his life with the help of a man who showed him sometimes trust is worth the risk.
Blue features one of the most popular characters from the Saving Liam saga! Destined for greatness, he reveals the past that made him the scarred bad boy readers love.</span><br />

Well written, sweet sweet story of an emotional and bodied scarred character that just really blew me away. This is an age-gap story that fate sets on a path to each other. This has a good many of emotional triggers, abuse, cutting, suicide and religion. Highly recommend this book!</span><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"> </span></div>

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Award winning author DP Denman writes character-driven contemporary romance about gay men. Her stories are real and intense, but resolve in endings that make people want to read the book all over again. She lives among the moss and trees of the Pacific Northwest with a rambunctious pair of fur babies.</span></div>

<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">In her spare time, she is a dedicated LGBTQIA rights activist with a special focus on the thousands of rejected and abandoned kids who end up on the street every year. To support the cause, 25% of the royalties from every book go to LGBT charities.</span></div>

The problem is that he doesn’t desire females, and it’s physically impossible for him to be with males. Thankfully, he and his best friend, Fayle, have an arrangement that keeps him alive . . . if lonely. He finds some solace in his work as a medic at Thirst, a vampire club known for its rough clientele. But his carefully structured world turns upside down when he meets a mysterious male who makes him want what he can never have.</span></div>

But he also wants to earn back the soul he sold when he was a much different demon. All he has to do is capture a runaway succubus named Fayle and hand her over to her family. What he doesn’t count on is being caught himself by a web of lies—and his attraction to Raze.</span></div>

But as Fayle’s jealousy of their relationship turns deadly, they find themselves embroiled in a battle not only for their love, but their lives and souls.</span><br />

I could see exactly what the author wanted me to see. I was a little lost in the story and kept going back to her dictionary in the front, but not enough to put it down. Raze is literally between a rock and hard place, being gay and having to survive by having sex with women is pure torture for him, when Slake is facing loosing his soul himself by not finishing his last job, to find the woman keeping Raze alive, A bitter jealousy has Slake and Raze fighting for both their souls. If you are looking a fantasy with two hot demons then this is a short read for you.<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">The man who has been more of a dad to me than my biological father is dead. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">He rescued me from the streets six years ago—a runaway teenage boy, escaping a family who thought I was an abomination. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Now what do I do? I have no one. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">My life might look great from the outside. I’m in college. I have my own apartment. I have lots of friends. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">But I’m dying on the inside. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I feel so alone. Lost. Hopeless. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I’m not the kind of person to wallow in self-pity. I need a distraction. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">The guy moving into Unit A may be just what I need to take my mind off of losing my dad. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">21-year old Oliver Lancaster is attracted to 22-year old Adam Stockton, the former-Marine moving into Unit A. But attraction for the closeted man morphs quickly into something deeper, something meaningful, something that terrifies Oliver. What will happen if Adam learns about the secret from his past? </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">
</span></div>

OMGoodness, I freaking loved this book! Oliver and Adam are such great characters, and I thought the story line was fantastic. The way Kris Cook wrote about Adam’s disability was mesmerizing. And even though Malcolm death is how the book starts off, he was written as such a great influence on the people of Mockingbird Place. This is a start to a wonderful new series that I can’t wait to read more of in the future.</div>

</div>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"></span>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I stay behind as everyone says their goodbyes to him. I’m not ready to leave.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">He hugs Martha and Sarah last. They wave to me, and then walk out.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">When Adam shuts the door, I ask him, “How about another beer? There’s three left.”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">“Actually, I’m hungry. Are you?” <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">“Starving.”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">He walks into the kitchen and holds up a grocery bag. “You like ramen noodles? I’m not much of a cook and I figured it might be too late to go out by the time I finished. I was right, even with all the help of our wonderful neighbors and you.”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">This will be our first meal together. “Noodles and beer? Sounds perfect.”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Adam laughs. “I even got cupcakes for dessert. Now all we need to do is find a pot in one of these boxes so we can boil the noodles.”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">A few minutes later, our dinner is ready to eat.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">He looks in several boxes. “I found forks but no plates or bowls. Oh, well. I guess we’ll have to eat out of the pot. And since my dining room table is loaded with boxes and my new sofa won’t be delivered until tomorrow, we’ll have to sit on the floor.” He walks into the living room, carrying a couple of forks and our pot of noodles.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I plop down in the same place I sat in before everyone else arrived. “It’ll be like an indoor picnic.”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">He laughs, sits down next to me and then scoots even closer. So close my heart skips a beat. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Adam holds the pot out for me. “You take the first bite.”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Heat rushes through me as I twirl my fork in the pot. I wonder if he realizes how intimate this feels. Was my first instinct about him right? Is he gay? I’m confused. I’m not about to bring up that subject now, especially remembering how he acted when I mentioned the gay strip club. Right now I must be patient with him. I like Adam. If he isn’t gay, I hope we can at least be friends. But if he is…well, that is a different story.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">As I taste the noodles, his eyes are fixed on me. “How did I do, Oliver?”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">“Delicious.” I haven’t eaten ramen noodles in a very long time. Malcolm was an excellent cook and taught me everything he knew about the kitchen. We always ate like kings. “It has a flavor I can’t quite figure out.”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Laughing, Adam places his arm around me. “It’s beer. I’m no chef and I don’t have any spices except salt and pepper, but I thought if I poured some of my beer in the pot it might make our noodles taste better.”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">“It does taste great. Good idea.”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">“Really? You’re not just saying that, are you?”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">“Yes. Really.” I smile at his enthusiasm. I’ve witnessed a sliver of his dark side when he adamantly stated he wasn’t gay. But now, he seems completely relaxed and open. This seems to be another side to his personality. How many sides does he have? Adam is still a mystery to me.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">We polish off the entire pot of noodles quickly.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">“I guess we were hungry.” He finishes his beer and remains next to me. “Ready for dessert?”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I would much rather taste his lips, but for now, I will settle for a cupcake. “I would love dessert.”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">He jumps to his feet, collecting our two forks and the empty pot, and returns to the kitchen. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Again, I notice his slight limp. I really wish I knew what happened to him. But if I say something it might end the evening, and I don’t want it to end. We’ve only had a little time alone together. I want more, but feel if I stay much longer, I will screw things up.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">He brings the cupcakes on a napkin. “There’s a chocolate and a vanilla. Which one do you want?”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I look into his dark eyes, wondering what it would be like to hold him close. “Chocolate, please.”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">“That’s my favorite, too.” He sits down even closer to me than before, the sides of our legs touching with only the fabric of our jeans keeping our skin apart. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">My heart begins to race. “How about we cut the cupcakes in two, Adam, and split them? That way we both get a taste of our favorite.”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">He laughs in such a way I can’t help but smile. It’s hearty and warm. “Oliver, you’re a genius.”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">He takes a bite of his chocolate slice and closes his eyes. “Mmm.”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I can’t help but stare at the drop of icing that is on his thick lips. When his tongue appears and sweeps it into his mouth, I think I’m going to pass out. He is the hottest guy I’ve ever met. I need to get control of myself or my excitement will get the better of me.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Adam’s eyes pop open. “What are you waiting for? It’s delicious.”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I take a bite of mine. In the sexiest voice I can muster, I say, “It is so delicious—sweet, moist, and creamy.”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">“You should be the bakery’s spokesperson. Have you ever thought about doing commercials?”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">So much for trying to sound sexy, but I’m not ready to give up. Not yet. “No, I never have.”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">“You should consider it. You’ve got a great voice.”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">“Thanks. This has been a blast, Adam.”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">“A blast?” He grins again. “I’m glad but I feel like I’ve taken advantage of you. This has been a lot of work.”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><i>Please take advantage of me.</i> “Next time I want to cook dinner for you.”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">“That would be great. I’ll bring a six-pack or a bottle of wine. But don’t think you have to top my meal.” He grins, holding up his remaining cupcake half. “This is five-star dining at its best.”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">“Yes, it is. And the company can’t be beat.” Despite how much I want to stay, I wrap up the remainder of my dessert in the napkin. “It’s late. I better go.”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">A flash of disappointment appears on his face and then quickly vanishes. He gets up on his feet. “Thanks, buddy. Without your help and all the other neighbors pitching in, I wouldn’t have been able to get the truck unloaded.” He holds out his hand in the universal gesture of friendship.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Is this all we are ever going to be? Just friends?<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I can’t resist testing the water, just a little. “Come on, buddy. We’ve shared noodles. We’re friends who deserve a hug.” I pull him in and he doesn’t resist.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">It still doesn’t confirm my suspicions about him, but it does give me a reason to hope.</span><o:p></o:p></div>

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><b>Though starting in straight erotic romance, Kris's total focus now is on gay romance. When asked why recently, his answer was "My muse finally came out of the closet. Isn't it about time? I’ve been out since I was twenty-five." A voracious reader, Kris loves many genres of fiction, but this writer's favorite books are romances that are edgy, sexy, with rich characters and unique challenges. Kris' influences include Anne Rice, JR Ward, Lexi Blake and Shayla Black. Last year, Kris married the love of his life Stephen. </b></span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Dr. Derek Babineaux is intelligent, dedicated, and one of the best ER physicians in the fast-paced world of critical care at Tulane Medical in New Orleans. Always on top of his game, he's thrown off balance when the newest medical staff member finally unleashes his hidden desires. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">
</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Justin Delacroix's job at the inner city's busiest hospital might be just what he needs to ease back into civilian life after a long stint in the military. High-performing shifts make working as a trauma nurse at TMC the perfect way to utilize his skills and quick reaction times. There's only one problem, his attraction for one sexy ER doctor is off the charts, but he has his reasons for not returning Dr. Baby's night shift advances. Or maybe he doesn't.</span></div>

<div style="text-align: start;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">“I’m starting to think you might have a crush on me, Dr. Baby.” His own crooked smile </span><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">spread, hoping he was getting past the too quiet remark from earlier. He didn’t want Derek to see </span><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">him that way. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: start;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">
</span><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">“Then quit dodging me and let’s play doctor,” Derek growled. Justin could feel Derek’s </span><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">heated gaze on him, but refused to look his way. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: start;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">
</span><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">“I don’t mix business with pleasure,” Justin playfully fired right back, like he had every night </span><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">they’d worked together. Besides, Derek had to know he was such a liar. It took everything in him </span><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">not to jump the smug doctor right there in the hallway and show him exactly how well he played </span><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">with others.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: start;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">
</span><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">“I’m not buying it. Besides, if you don’t want to play with me, then why do I always catch </span><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">you eye-fucking me?” Derek cockily countered. The doctor grabbed his forearm, stopping Justin </span><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">in his tracks. Derek turned toward him and their eyes locked in an instant. Justin wondered if </span><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Derek could hear his heart pounding against his chest as he held his challenging gaze. </span></div>

<div style="text-align: left;">
Best Selling Author Kindle Alexander is an innovative writer, and a genre-crosser who writes classic fantasy, romance, suspense, and erotica in both the male/male and male/female genres. It's always a surprise to see what's coming next!</div>

<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I live in the suburbs of Dallas where it's true, the only thing bigger than an over active imagination, may be women's hair!</span></div>

<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Usually, I try for funny. Humor is a major part of my life - I love to laugh, and it seems to be the thing I do in most situations - regardless of the situation, but jokes are a tricky deal... I don't want to offend anyone and jokes tend to offend. So instead I'm going to tell you about Kindle.</span></div>

<div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I tragically lost my sixteen year old daughter to a drunk driver. She had just been at home, it was early in the night and I heard the accident happen. I'll never forget that moment. The sirens were immediate and something inside me just knew. I left my house, drove straight to the accident on nothing more than instinct. I got to be there when my little girl died - weirdly, I consider that a true gift from above. She didn't have to be alone.</span></div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">
</span></div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">That time in my life was terrible. It's everything you think it would be times about a billion. I love that kid. I loved being her mother and I loved watching her grow into this incredibly beautiful person, both inside and out. She was such a gift to me. To have it all ripped away so suddenly broke me.</span></div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">
</span></div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Her name was Kindle. Honest to goodness - it was her name and she died a few weeks before Amazon released their brand new Kindle ereader. She had no idea it was coming out and she would have finally gotten her name on something! Try finding a ruler with the name Kindle on it.. It never happened.</span></div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">
</span></div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Through the course of that crippling event I was lucky enough to begin to write with a dear friend in the fan fiction world of Facebook. She got me through those dark days with her unwavering support and friendship. There wasn't a time she wasn't there for me. Sometimes together and sometimes by myself, we built a world where Kindle lives and stands for peace, love and harmony. It's its own kind of support group. I know without question I wouldn't be here today without her.</span></div>

<br />
Broken by the death of Keiran, Rage is lingering on the brink of
suicide, but Lucinda refuses to accept that her best friend is gone.
Stubborn as ever, she won’t allow Rage to sneak out of her life before
he has solved a few critical issues. Together, they get back to the
Forbidden Monastery, face the past, and find out Keiran is not as dead
as he is supposed to be.<br />
<br />
Their hope for peace and rest is not to be fulfilled. Keiran has to
deal with the burden of unwanted magic his would-be killer has put on
his shoulders. Lucinda has to face a murder trial, and Rage needs to
seek out old allies in order to sort out the mess they are in.<br />
<br />
They have to tread carefully in the empress’s city, a place humming
with political obstacles and filled with plotting lords, grieving
mothers, and one very crazy monk. The threesome stumbles upon a scheme
to start a large-scale war and somehow must find a way to foil the
plans. Slowly Rage comes to the realization that sometimes even the most
important rules must be broken to save an entire kingdom.<br />

<span id="freeTextauthor3500740">Sam C. Leonhard is a
journalist by profession who lives in southern Germany. Writing has been
part of her life since age twenty, but somehow it was never enough to
report the latest news about small-town politics. She wrote short
stories for friends and family until a few years back she discovered the
world of fandom. The Petulant Poetess is where she feels at home; slash
became an addiction as soon as she stumbled over the first story.<br /><br />If
not writing—which isn't half as often as she'd like—Sam takes care of
her son, her dog, a few cats, the madness at work, and life in general.
She likes to believe she’s got some humor left after years of dealing
with people who usually don’t understand what she’s talking about when
she says she’s writing fantasy and gay porn on top of it.</span><br />

For fans who loved the snarky wit of Will & Grace and the epic love drama found in Brokeback Mountain comes Avery Aster's new full-length, standalone contemporary M/M romance novel, Unsaid.<br />
<br />
Chelsea’s hottie Blake Morgan III has reemerged from a nasty breakup. His marriage was a frigid disaster beyond repair, and he vows to be single—forever. Bruised, but still hot in Prada, he creates his Seven Desires wish list, his sexiest imaginings. Blake soon realizes there’s only one man he may trust to make these uninhibited intentions come to fruition: his best friend Miguel Santana.<br />
<br />
Lower East Side multimedia artist extraordinaire Miguel Santana may be known as the cocky Latin stud in the city, but all he’s wanted since college was Blake’s hand in marriage. He was livid when Blake walked down the aisle with the wrong guy. Miguel has his own list titled the Seven Needs, which are quite contrary to Blake’s dirty-boy deeds. They involve serious commitments, which may leave his new-to-the-singles-scene buddy sprinting for the door, destroying any hopes Miguel has for happiness.<br />
<br />
Can these two hunks conquer their intimate fears and love one another as only best friends can? Join the star-studded cast in The Manhattanites series and see for yourself!<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<a href="http://bookenthusiastpromotions.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/09/excerpt.jpg"><img alt="excerpt" class="aligncenter wp-image-21271" src="http://bookenthusiastpromotions.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/09/excerpt-1024x265.jpg" height="118" width="456" /></a></div>
<br />
He went over and peeled his nylon sweats off as Miguel watched, then dropped to his knees on the mattress. Game on. He lowered his shoulders and crawled forward, palms out as a panther approaching a meal. Hungry, reaching for his friend’s cock with his right<br />
<br />
hand, Blake stroked his shaft with his left. He witnessed his friend’s eyes roll back in pleasure. Other than his own, he hadn’t held a cock in his hands in years. Miguel’s pink head deserved his attention. A little freaked out by how easy this was, by how natural it<br />
<br />
felt, Blake tried to stay calm and just go with it.<br />
<br />
Miguel moaned louder in Spanish then ordered, “You’re going to be a good niño and suck my cock.”<br />
<br />
Nodding in agreement, he asked, “And then?”<br />
<br />
“Don’t use your hands.” Cupping his fingers around Blake’s jawline, Miguel brushed his thumb over his lips.<br />
<br />
“I’ll keep my hands behind my back.” He clasped his palms by the floor.<br />
<br />
“Once I’m nice and hard, I’m gonna face-fuck you, hard.” He glanced down at his dick. “When I come, you’ll swallow me—whole, understand?”<br />
<br />
“Is there anything else, boss man?” He pretended he’d swallow, but would spit it out, like they did in adult films. Yes, that was what he’d do. Or take it on his chest, or maybe his face. Maybe.<br />
<br />
Miguel rested himself on the mattress. “Get started.”<br />
<br />
Supercharged with enthusiasm, he leaned forward and nipped at Miguel’s dick. He ran his tongue in long strokes along his shaft. Spice, sweet and exotic, enveloped his senses. By far the biggest he’d seen, the dick was thick, too. Licking under the shaft, he<br />
<br />
produced enough lube to do his duty.<br />
<br />
“Taste good?”<br />
<br />
“Ah-huh…” He couldn’t believe he was doing this.<br />
<br />
“Let me watch you. Take me. Come on, boy.”<br />
<br />
First, his lips glided down. The satiny penis head hit the roof of his mouth. He opened wider. A dive down further pressed his face all the way up against the crotch. The black pubes tickled his cheeks.<br />
<br />
“Doing good, boy.”<br />
<br />
The cock twitched and slid in more. Deeper. Careful not to scrape the skin, his two front teeth rested at the base of his dick.<br />
<br />
He looked up at his Latin God with a grin.<br />
<br />
Miguel blew him a kiss and seduced Blake to continue. As their playfulness increased, he wondered for a split second what else he’d do for his best friend.<br />
<br />
His tongue laced the nuts as he took him in further. Still nervous to pump the dick with his mouth, he continued to suck, sweetly. His nostrils burned. He thirsted for more.<br />
<br />
“Fuck!” Miguel shouted. “Take my entire cock, chico guapo.” He pressed his body against Blake’s face. “Caliente.”<br />
<br />
He jerked back.<br />
<br />
His top became more fired up.<br />

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">The man who has been more of a dad to me than my biological father is dead. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">He rescued me from the streets six years ago—a runaway teenage boy, escaping a family who thought I was an abomination. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Now what do I do? I have no one. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">My life might look great from the outside. I’m in college. I have my own apartment. I have lots of friends. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">But I’m dying on the inside. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I feel so alone. Lost. Hopeless. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I’m not the kind of person to wallow in self-pity. I need a distraction. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">The guy moving into Unit A may be just what I need to take my mind off of losing my dad. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><b>**** </b></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">
</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">21-year old Oliver Lancaster is attracted to 22-year old Adam Stockton, the former-Marine moving into Unit A. But attraction for the closeted man morphs quickly into something deeper, something meaningful, something that terrifies Oliver. What will happen if Adam learns about the secret from his past? </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">
</span></div>

</div>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"></span>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Having been awake all night, I step out of the shower. The rally doesn’t start until noon, but I need something, anything that can distract me from thinking about what happened with Adam. Giving him space is what Martha and Sarah think I should do, so I decide to let a single day pass. But if I don’t hear from him by tomorrow, I will make the first move to fix things between us. And besides, Adam still needs help setting up his apartment before his mother arrives, and I want to be that help. </span></div>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"> </span>
<div style="text-align: left;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I finish getting ready, and take one last look at my hair before leaving my apartment. I park my car in the student parking lot. </span><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">The university I attend has a large green space in the middle of campus. Mature trees </span><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">line the sidewalks that are sparsely filled with students going to and from their classes and dormitories. In the fall the grounds will be teeming with students. </span></div>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"></span>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I look at the time on my cell. 8:21am. I have over three and a half hours to kill before the rally. Where to go? The library? No. I didn’t need to go over my speech any more, since I’ve spent several early morning hours already working on it. I am ready. So I decide to get a bite of breakfast in the cafeteria. </span></div>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"> </span>
<div style="text-align: left;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">When I walk inside, I see Adam at a table filling out some paperwork. I freeze in place. I am in a quandary whether to approach him or not, whether to follow Martha and Sarah’s advice or not, whether to tamp down my desire to sit down next to him to say how sorry I am—or not. </span></div>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"> </span>
<div style="text-align: left;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Adam looks at me. Did he feel me staring at him? Before I can step back to the entrance to leave, he waves me over. I feel my shoulders relax as relief rolls through me. At least he is willing to talk to me again. I take cautious steps in his direction. Gone are his jeans and T-shirt and facial hair. He is clean-shaven, wearing black slacks and a white dress shirt and blue tie. Casual or dress up, with whiskers or without, Adam is the epitome of masculine beauty. </span></div>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"> </span>
<div style="text-align: left;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">“Have a seat, Oliver.”</span></div>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"></span>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I do, waiting for him to lay into me again about seeing his prosthetic legs. “Would you mind if I put your name down as a reference on this application? </span></div>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"> </span>
<div style="text-align: left;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">They’re asking for a student or professor’s name. You’re the only one I know.” He looks at me with those damn gorgeous doe eyes. “I have the option to leave it blank if you don’t want me to.” </span></div>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"> </span>
<div style="text-align: left;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">“Please. Use my name. I’ll be happy to be your reference.” Your friend. Your boyfriend. Whatever. </span></div>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"></span>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">“Thanks, buddy.” He smiles and then goes back to filling out the paperwork. </span></div>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"></span>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I have the strongest urge to bring up what happened last night to try to clear the air. But hearing Martha and Sarah’s words of advice replay in my head, I keep my mouth shut. If he isn’t ready to talk about it, then I certainly am not going to mention it. I will give him whatever space and time he needs. At least he isn’t asking me to leave. </span></div>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"></span>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">“Done.” He stands. “Wish me luck.” </span></div>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"> </span>
<div style="text-align: left;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">“Sure. For what?”</span></div>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"></span>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">“That I can get a job in the cafeteria. Are you in a hurry?”</span></div>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"></span>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">“I don’t have to be anywhere until noon.”</span></div>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"></span>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">“Good. Let me turn this in and maybe I could trouble you with that tour around campus you offered me.”</span></div>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"> </span>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I am so glad he’s asking for my help. “I’ll be happy to show you some shortcuts.” “You’re a lifesaver. My sense of direction is shot. I wish you could have seen the </span></div>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"> </span>
<div style="text-align: left;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">look on my face when I walked into the women’s locker room by mistake earlier. Why the door was unlocked I have no clue, but I could feel my cheeks burning when the girls started giggling and running for cover. I turned and walked out as fast I could, buddy.” </span></div>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"></span>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">“You really do need my help. It took me a whole semester to figure out how to get around this place. But I’m surprised that you walked into the women’s locker room. Isn’t a good sense of direction necessary on the battlefield?” Oh shit. Why did I bring that up? </span></div>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"></span>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">“It’s easy on the battlefield. You just have to know where the bullets are coming from.” He smiles, which makes me feel better. “I’m starving, how about you?” </span></div>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"> </span>
<div style="text-align: left;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">“Famished.” </span></div>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"> </span>
<div style="text-align: left;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">“Breakfast is on me.” He hands me a twenty-dollar bill. “The lady in charge asked me to fill this out today but won’t be able to interview me until next week. Let me turn this application in and you order us some breakfast. Then we’ll go on the tour. I’ll be right back.” </span></div>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"> </span>
<div style="text-align: left;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">He walks away. His limp is gone. No one in the cafeteria has a clue that he is missing a leg but me. And it certainly doesn’t bother me, not one bit. I don’t know how he lost his leg, but obviously he hasn’t quite accepted it yet. He mentioned a friend was supposed to help him initially, but the guy never showed. Did Adam have any help packing and loading before driving to Mockingbird Place? He didn’t seem overly tired that night, but he is a strong guy. A former-Marine. I guess he’s not limping because he got some rest after unloading his things into Malcolm’s old place. No, Adam’s place. Unit A is Adam’s. </span><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I go and order two sausage egg cheese biscuits and orange juices for us. When I get back to our table, he is already there. </span></div>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"> </span>
<div style="text-align: left;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Adam looks up at me. “Breakfast is served?” </span></div>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"> </span>
<div style="text-align: left;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I place the tray on the table. “Yes, sir.” I can’t resist and salute Adam, instantly worrying I might be overstepping again. Thus far he’s been very closed mouth about his military service. But he returns the salute with a devilish grin, easing my concerns. We eat our breakfast, talking about everything except the main issue on my mind. </span></div>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"> </span>
<div style="text-align: left;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">“I bet you’re glad our complex has a pool,” he says. “It’s going to be very hot according the weatherman for the next several days.” </span></div>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"> </span>
<div style="text-align: left;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">“You like to swim?”</span></div>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"></span>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">He shrugs. “I used to.”</span></div>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"> </span>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I brace myself, thinking we might be getting close to opening Pandora’s box about what happened. But as usual, Adam changes the subject. “Oliver, how about you show me the buildings where my classes are going to be first?” </span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">“Sure thing.”</span><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"> </span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">He hands me his schedule, and I realize the lid on the infamous box is not only shut tight, it is also locked with no sign of the key in sight. What is it going to take for Adam to explain his sudden and over-the-top reaction to me learning he lost his leg? And will I ever learn if he is gay or straight? </span></div>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"></span>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">As we leave the cafeteria, he asks, “Do you know the guy who lives in Unit D? Long black hair. Blue eyes. Good looking. He invited me to a party tonight at his and his roommate’s place.” </span></div>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"></span>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">“That’s Trace. I’m going, too. In fact the whole complex should be there. It’ll give you another chance to get to know everyone.” </span></div>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"></span>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">“The ones who helped us move my things were very nice, though the MMA fighter is a bit intense.” </span></div>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"></span>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">“Tony’s that way, but I believe he’s really a good guy underneath all that darkness.” “I wasn’t sure I would go, but now that I know you’re going I will.”</span></div>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"> </span><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"></span>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">We had so much drama last night, and today he’s acting like it never happened. </span></div>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"></span>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Now, he says he only is going to the party if I’m going. Damn. He confuses me so much. I sense now is not the time to confront him with what I’m feeling. But if not now, when? “I’m glad you’re going, too.” </span></div>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"> </span>
<div style="text-align: left;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">We walk around campus, and I point out the iconic spots.</span></div>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"> </span><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"></span>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">“That’s Dallas Hall, the oldest building on campus.”</span></div>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"> </span><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"></span> <div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">“It’s quite grand. I like the dome.”</span></div>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"> </span><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><div style="text-align: left;">
When we got to the building that had the last class on his list, he turns to me. </div>
</span><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"></span>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">“Thanks, buddy.” </span><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Buddy. There’s that word again. But better to be called that than nothing. I did say I </span><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">would settle for friendship, but can I really? The more time I spend with him the more my feelings get mixed up. </span></div>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"></span>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">“No trouble, Adam. I enjoyed hanging out.” </span></div>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"> </span>
<div style="text-align: left;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">“Me, too. I would have been completely lost on my first day of classes if it hadn’t been for you and your fantastic tour.” He sighs. “I better get back to looking for a job.” </span></div>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"></span>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">“Do you plan on working the entire time you’re in school?” </span></div>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"> </span>
<div style="text-align: left;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">“Yeah. With the financial aid I’m getting I don’t have to work, but I want to. It will give me extra spending money and will keep me busy.” </span></div>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"> </span>

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I have a feeling that he likes keeping busy so he doesn’t have to face bigger issues inside him. “You don’t seem like you would be happy working in food service to me. Have you thought about doing something else?” </span></div>

<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I am nervous to push him, but have to try. At least he’s mentioning his service—and missing leg. It’s a start. “Adam, I saw you unload that truck and move all those boxes and furniture into your place. You’re strong and capable.

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><b>Though starting in straight erotic romance, Kris's total focus now is on gay romance. When asked why recently, his answer was "My muse finally came out of the closet. Isn't it about time? I’ve been out since I was twenty-five." A voracious reader, Kris loves many genres of fiction, but this writer's favorite books are romances that are edgy, sexy, with rich characters and unique challenges. Kris' influences include Anne Rice, JR Ward, Lexi Blake and Shayla Black. Last year, Kris married the love of his life Stephen. </b></span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">You know what they say—you can’t go home again—and Brandon Masters doesn’t want to. But when he gets a call that his father is down hard with a broken leg, he puts his thriving real estate business, his fiancé, and his life on hold and returns to his small town roots in Goldview, Texas, temporarily picking up the reins of the world he left behind. A dozen years gone should be long enough to erase the pain and humiliation he suffered when the town’s bad boy broke his naive teenaged heart.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">
</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Twelve years ago, Joe Martinez was left standing in the dust, his heart in his hand and his future on the line when the blond-haired, blue-eyed boy from the right side of the tracks left town without a backward glance. Or so he thought. Since then, he’s rebuilt himself from the boots up, to earn the respect of the community his father shamed.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">
</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">When the now-Sheriff Martinez discovers Brandon has returned long enough to help his father recover, he realizes he’s been handed the perfect opportunity to get the answers he needs to move on—and maybe seek a little payback for pain and suffering. But businessman-Brandon has learned a thing or two about protecting his heart—and breaking down those walls may not be as easy as it appears. Irresistible force—meet immovable object.</span></div>

<b><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Chapter 1 - Coming Home Texas</span></b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><a class="g-profile" href="https://plus.google.com/107500244597093698633" target="_blank">+Laura Harner</a> - Subject to change</span></b></div>
<br style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;" /><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">“Well, dammit all to hell and Goldview, Texas, anyway,” Brandon Masters whispered under his breath. Not that there was anyone around to hear him, even if he’d shouted to the high heavens. He looked up and down the lonely stretch of highway. So close and yet so far, with nothing but his dead cell phone to keep him company. The way he saw the situation…he could suck it up and walk to town—or, he could wait around for the carrion feeders to discover his dried up, shriveled carcass at the side of the road. Ick.</span><br style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;" /><br style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;" /><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Dead in a place he never thought he’d be visiting again voluntarily.</span><br style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;" /><br style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;" /><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Other than forgetting his car charger, his other regret at the moment was driving his old pickup back to town instead of his BMW convertible. That had been a stupid, sentimental decision—Old Blue had taken his sorry ass out of town nearly a dozen years ago, and Brandon thought it fitting that she should bring him back. Of course his new Beamer came with roadside assistance, so he’d let his auto club membership expire. That worked out well. Not.</span><br style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;" /><br style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;" /><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Since he’d gotten the call from Isabella—the closest thing to a mother that he’d known since his own mom died when he was nine—Brandon seemed to be stuck on a never ending sentimental highway. Once he decided he needed to come back, the memories he thought he buried long ago wouldn’t leave him alone.</span><br style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;" /><br style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;" /><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Thoughts of Joe Martinez won’t leave me alone.</span><br style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;" /><br style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;" /><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Reliving the humiliation of the night he left didn’t help. Neither did reminding himself that Joe and Sara Lynn had done him a favor.</span><br style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;" /><br style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;" /><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">If he had stayed around Goldview, he’d probably be selling used cars, maybe living in a trailer somewhere. Or stuck living at home on his dad’s ranch. Or dead because he’d been stupid enough to give himself to Joe that summer by the lake, and condoms hadn’t been on their list of priorities in the heat of the moment. Given what he’d learned about Joe later, Brandon had been damned lucky he hadn’t caught anything.</span><br style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;" /><br style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;" /><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Nowadays, Brandon was thankful for his quiet life in San Diego. He had a successful career and a business, a nice house, and could afford the toys he wanted, like his Beamer and his sailboat. He didn’t have to depend on anyone else for his happiness—and he liked it that way.</span><br style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;" /><br style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;" /><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Well, there was Ellis, but he tried not to depend on his fiancé, even though they were business partners, too. He’d learned the hard way, depending on other people meant letting down his guard to heartache and disappointment. Brandon hadn’t been disappointed in more than a decade…not since he’d left Goldview.</span><br style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;" /><br style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;" /><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">With a frustrated sigh, Brandon reached behind the seat, opened his toolbox, and pulled out a wrench. He kicked at the dust on the side of the road as he walked to the front and lifted the hood. Hot steam billowed out to dampen his hair, and he swiped his brow. Between the steam and the sun, he felt like he was in hell. He’d forgotten how hot it could be in Texas.</span><br style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;" /><br style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;" /><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Once the steam cleared, he climbed on the bumper to lean underneath and took a good look. Well, damn…a hose had busted. With the sun baking his back, Brandon twisted and tried to get leverage on the nut of the hose clamp. Shifting his boots on the bumper, he grunted and pushed down on the wrench, but it slipped and he rapped his knuckles. He stopped to breathe a second, getting a nose full of the scent of burnt oil.</span><br style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;" /><br style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;" /><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">It was on him to fix this, he thought, as he leaned back in for another try. Out here in the boonies, help wasn’t likely to come anytime soon. Once he got the busted hose off, the walk back to town for a replacement was five miles. The walk to his dad’s ranch was just about the same distance. Before he got to either location, he’d probably fry like an egg. If he was going to help his dad, he needed to help himself first.</span><br style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;" /><br style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;" /><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">With a growl of determination, Brandon leaned a little deeper into the engine compartment, aligned the wrench again and grunted as he twisted. It budged a little and gave him hope that maybe he could get the darned thing off.</span><br style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;" /><br style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;" /><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Brandon didn’t want to be in Goldview, Texas. But if Isabella hadn’t waited so damned long to call about his dad’s accident, he could have been here—and possibly gone—sooner. Of course, the old man probably forbade their longtime housekeeper from calling. Carl Masters needed to know that a broken hip and femur weren’t anything to mess around with, and neither was a green horse. Brandon planned on telling him that when he got to the Vida Nueva Ranch.</span><br style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;" /><br style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;" /><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">If he got there, he corrected, as he twisted the wrench again.</span><br style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;" /><br style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;" /><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">No luck. The damned thing was frozen in place by rust.</span><br style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;" /><br style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;" /><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">One thing he wasn’t going to do when he got to the ranch was take over the reins and run the place forever. He could help for a bit while his dad was down, but then he was getting the hell back to San Diego where he belonged. Years ago, he’d shot his dad down when he’d tried to talk Brandon into coming home permanently so he could take over someday—when Carl retired. Brandon had been clear then and he hadn’t changed his mind. Even as much as he missed seeing his family on a daily basis, his life was in San Diego now.</span><br style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;" /><br style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;" /><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Carl’s accident did drive home a point, though. It was time for his dad to retire. That meant selling the ranch, and having Carl move in with him and Ellis in San Diego. Which Brandon probably should mention to his fiancé before he gave the news to his dad. Well, it was going to take a lot of convincing, anyway. Carl Masters had been riding since before he could walk—but it was time to get out of the saddle when a horse could throw a man like that.</span><br style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;" /><br style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;" /><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">When they’d talked at Christmastime, he’d basically told his dad it was getting close to the time to retire, but Carl was as stubborn as the old mule they’d had when Brandon was a kid. He’d said the only way he was leaving the ranch was feet first, and even then he wasn’t leaving, just waiting to be buried. That meant Carl would balk at the idea of coming to California for rehab. Which might mean Brandon was here for the duration. Because until Carl got back on his feet, Brandon was going to be helping Hep run the ranch.</span><br style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;" /><br style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;" /><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">If there could be a bright side, maybe this accident would teach Carl a lesson and knock some common sense into that hard head—this could be the perfect time to try to get him to at least agree to hang up his spurs and sell the ranch—maybe move to a smaller place in Goldview instead out here in the boonies.</span><br style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;" /><br style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;" /><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Brandon shook his head as if to clear out the dust. Putting all his weight behind the wrench, he gave it one more forceful twist. The rusty clamp broke, and a burst of hot steam hit him solidly in the face. Brandon jerked back, whacked his head on the hood and cursed. He dropped the wrench, his boot heel slipped on the bumper, and he started waving his arms to regain his balance, even as he felt himself falling backward into empty air.</span><br style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;" /><br style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;" /><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">****</span><br style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;" /><br style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;" /><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Given the demands of his job, Joe didn’t really have the time, but he needed to check on Carl Masters. The old man had an accident nearly a month ago, and had been in the hospital—but now he was home and laid up and it was the neighborly thing to do. Carl didn’t have much help at the ranch, and his only child was in San Diego. The only permanent help to run the place was Hep, his ranch manager, who was as old as Carl and twice as stubborn—which said a helluva lot.</span><br style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;" /><br style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;" /><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">They had a few hands at the Vida Nueva, but not nearly enough for the amount of cattle they were running these days. Joe never could figure out why Carl still insisted on keeping the ranch running at near capacity. As far as he knew, Carl wasn’t hurting for money. If he was planning to create a legacy for his son, he was wasting his time. The old man had to realize that Brandon wasn’t coming back.</span><br style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;" /><br style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;" /><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Not after eleven years, ten months and two days. Joe knew because he would never forget the day Brandon left without so much as a goodbye.</span><br style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;" /><br style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;" /><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Joe put his foot on the accelerator to speed down Wayfair to Big Sandy Bend Road. The faster he got to the Vida Nueva, the sooner he could get back to town—he was behind on things at the station, too. Halfway down the road, a twenty-year-old pickup with a fresh steel blue paint job caught his attention—the model so much like Brandon’s old truck it was almost like a slap in the face. Joe slowed as he got closer and looked inside the cab for the driver. The hood was up, which usually signaled car trouble, but he didn’t see anyone. He eased back on the gas, and checked in his rearview as he passed by, thinking he’d probably have to stop on his way back if the truck was still there.</span><br style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;" /><br style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;" /><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">When a pair of illegally long legs in skintight designer jeans appeared in the rearview mirror, Joe jerked the wheel to the right and looked again. Someone was bent under the hood of the old truck—nothing but legs and ass on display to the world as she appeared to be struggling with something under the hood. Joe made a quick U-turn and pulled in front of the truck.</span><br style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;" /><br style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;" /><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Just as he exited the police SUV, steam billowed from under the truck’s hood and the woman reared back and hit her head on the hood with a thunk. Her well-worn boots skidded on the bumper, and Joe took off running. Shoulder-length blond hair swirling and arms flailing as she went backward, Joe dove forward and caught her back against his chest. He teetered for half a breath before momentum and gravity combined forces to knock him flat on his ass, the squirming motorist in his arms. Oh shit—not a woman.</span><br style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;" /><br style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;" /><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Joe immediately knew why that truck on this road was familiar. His pulse thumped in his throat as the still-so-familiar body pressed against his. Joe pushed himself backward to clamber out from underneath the unwelcome shock, rose to his full height, squinting through his dark glasses as if this might be some kind of heat-induced hallucination.</span><br style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;" /><br style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;" /><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Still looking down as he dusted off his clothes, Brandon hadn’t realized what happened. “Thanks, I owe you—”</span><br style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;" /><br style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;" /><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">“Brandon Masters,” Joe said.</span><br style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;" /><br style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;" /><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">The other man’s head jerked up, and for a moment, Brandon looked as shocked as Joe felt, but he recovered quicker. His mouth quirked up in a smug smile as he brazenly raked him with those indigo blue eyes. “Well, well, Joe Martinez. The last person I wanted to see my first day back in town.” He looked him over once more then said, “Huh. Nice uniform.” With a roll of his eyes, he turned back to his truck, climbed up on the bumper again then leaned under the hood.</span><br style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;" /><br style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;" /><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">In those rhinestone studded jeans and skin-tight blue silk shirt, Brandon Masters was dressed more for a nightclub than a dirt road in the middle of Bumfuck, Texas. He was sweaty, dirty, and grease-streaked—and still sexy as hell. Good enough to eat. Even better than he had looked at eighteen when he left town. Joe shifted his stance as his khaki pants got a little tighter. It seemed this particular man would always have that effect on him, and it irritated the hell out of him.</span><br style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;" /><br style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;" /><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Even the grunts he made as he struggled under the hood were sexy. After a minute, Brandon jumped down off the bumper, holding the hose up like a prize. His wide smile didn’t help the situation. Joe let his gaze take a journey down his slim, sweat-slick throat, across surprisingly defined chest, then down to his narrow hips and the long legs before he stopped at the scuffed up cowboy boots. He took his time on the visual field trip until he met the cool blue eyes and he swallowed hard.</span><br style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;" /><br style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;" /><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">“I thought you were a woman.” Joe’s voice came out an accusation.</span><br style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;" /><br style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;" /><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Something Joe couldn’t identify sparked in Brandon’s eyes. Hatred? Regret? He couldn’t tell. “You wish, asshole,” he clipped.</span><br style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;" /><br style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;" /><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Brandon spun on his heel and stomped to the cab of the truck, his hips swinging in a way that made all the spit in Joe’s mouth dry up. Reaching inside, Brandon jerked out a large backpack and slung it over his shoulder. Without another glance at Joe, he headed up the road toward Goldview, his hips swinging, taunting Joe, with each long, loose stride.</span></div>

<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I live on waterfront property in Arizona because I've always wanted to be an oxymoron. I once enjoyed hobbies such as gardening and travel--now the characters my head compel me to tell their stories, so I write. (It doesn't actually help quiet the voices--but it keeps the folks in the white jackets at bay.)</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">
</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I love to tell stories of people who find themselves in unusual situations (attracted to a best friend, in a haunted house, kidnapped for his own good, etc.) and then have to find way to push through whatever it is holding them back from finding love. I'm a big believer that love comes in many flavors, so among my titles you'll find MF, MM, and multiple partners of various combinations. In other words, love outside the lines. Suspense included, no extra charge.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">
</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">My home is filled with an ever-revolving cast of characters--some of whom are actually real--and outside of writing and watching my Diamondbacks baseball, I am building my own version of the Willow Springs Ranch to turn into a writer's retreat.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">
</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">With over fifty published novels and novellas, I'm rapidly approaching a half million books sold! I want to thank each and every reader who's taken a chance on one of my books--that makes you family</span>.</div>

Housekeeper Mark Sintorella (Sinders) works diligently at a resort hotel while designing clothes anonymously, hoping to get into fashion school. Then his carefully planned life is upended with the arrival of Ashford Armitage, son of the fifth richest man in America—and the most beautiful guy Mark has ever seen. Ash must find a wife or he’ll lose his grandfather’s inheritance, and he settles on Bitsy Fanderel. But secretly Ash is gay, and the guy who cleans the fireplaces sets his heart ablaze.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Further stirring the pot is the little elf of a man, Carstairs Pennymaker, who has Mark wearing his own designs and masquerading as a girl to impress the fashion investors in the hotel. When the clock strikes twelve, two beautiful princesses line up for the wedding—but one isn’t a woman. Will the slipper fit? Only Mr. Pennymaker knows for sure.</div>

Pennymaker turned and looked at Mark. “What are you working
on?”<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
“Excuse me? I, uh, have to clean some fireplaces this
morning. You know they keep the rooms cool just so they can use them? Makes
work for me.”<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
“That’s not what I mean, of course.” Pennymaker turned back
to the rack and pushed some jeans aside. “Aha!” His hand shot through the
garments to the dress form. He made an opening in the clothes and stepped
through to stand beside the red dress. “Perfect. Just beautiful. What a
talent.”<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
“Excuse me?”<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Pennymaker beamed at him. “You have exceptional design
skills.”<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
God, it was hard to not be flattered. “Thank you, sir.” But
how had Mr. P known to look for the dress? Who’d told him?<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Pennymaker walked over to the chair and sat. It creaked.
Hopefully the tiny man wouldn’t strain the old wood too much. “I would like to
show that dress to some people.”<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
“Uh, who?”<span style="font-family: "MS Mincho"; mso-ascii-font-family: Cambria; mso-hansi-font-family: Cambria;">
</span><o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
“Let’s say some potential investors.”<span style="font-family: "MS Mincho"; mso-ascii-font-family: Cambria; mso-hansi-font-family: Cambria;">
</span><o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<i>No.</i> He couldn’t
get excited. “Really, sir? You’re in the clothing business?”<span style="font-family: "MS Mincho"; mso-ascii-font-family: Cambria; mso-hansi-font-family: Cambria;">
</span><o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
“I’m in many businesses, my boy.”<span style="font-family: "MS Mincho"; mso-ascii-font-family: Cambria; mso-hansi-font-family: Cambria;">
</span><o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<i>Okay, try not to be
suspicious</i>. “How did you know I was a clothing designer?”<span style="font-family: "MS Mincho"; mso-ascii-font-family: Cambria; mso-hansi-font-family: Cambria;">
</span><o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
The little man waved a hand. “That lovely T-shirt, of course.”<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
“No one told you?”<span style="font-family: "MS Mincho"; mso-ascii-font-family: Cambria; mso-hansi-font-family: Cambria;">
</span><o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">

<div class="MsoNormal">

<div class="MsoNormal">
Pennymaker stepped back and surveyed the dress. “Now, who is
your model?”<span style="font-family: "MS Mincho"; mso-ascii-font-family: Cambria; mso-hansi-font-family: Cambria;">
</span><o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">

<div class="MsoNormal">
<i>What?</i> Mark cocked
his head.<span style="font-family: "MS Mincho"; mso-ascii-font-family: Cambria; mso-hansi-font-family: Cambria;">
</span><o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>

“Whom did you set the dress form to?”<span style="font-family: "MS Mincho"; mso-ascii-font-family: Cambria; mso-hansi-font-family: Cambria;">
</span><o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
“Oh, uh, myself. I, uh, don’t have anyone else. I’m pretty
slim, so it works.”<span style="font-family: "MS Mincho"; mso-ascii-font-family: Cambria; mso-hansi-font-family: Cambria;">
</span><o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
“Perfect. Perfect. When do you have to be at work?”<span style="font-family: "MS Mincho"; mso-ascii-font-family: Cambria; mso-hansi-font-family: Cambria;">
</span><o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
This conversation was crazy. “In about an hour. This is my
morning off. Unless they need me, of course.”<span style="font-family: "MS Mincho"; mso-ascii-font-family: Cambria; mso-hansi-font-family: Cambria;">
</span><o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
“Good. Put on the dress.”<span style="font-family: "MS Mincho"; mso-ascii-font-family: Cambria; mso-hansi-font-family: Cambria;">
</span><o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
“What? Why?”<span style="font-family: "MS Mincho"; mso-ascii-font-family: Cambria; mso-hansi-font-family: Cambria;">
</span><o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
“We’re going for a little walk through the hotel. You’ll be
my… niece. Go on, go on.” He made a shooing gesture with his hands.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Mark shook his head. “Sir, I know I fit the dress to me, but
that’s because I don’t have anyone else. I’m not a transvestite.”<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
“Never said you were, dear boy. But these people I want to
have see the dress will be much more amenable to taking your designs seriously
if they think of the idea themselves rather than me telling them. That’s how we
all are, now isn’t it? I want them to see the clothes. We don’t have another
model, and we don’t want anyone else in on our secret.”<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<i>Secret?</i> “What if
someone recognizes me?”<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Pennymaker cocked his head. “That’s very unlikely. You do a
good job making yourself plain and unmemorable with your cap and glasses.”<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Mark felt the blush. <i>Shoot.</i>
The man had him dead to rights.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
“Besides, people see what they expect, and they certainly
don’t expect to see Mark Sintorella in a dress. Now, put it on.”<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Mark stepped behind the rack of clothing. He stripped to his
boxer briefs and stopped. What the hell was he doing? He could jeopardize his
job for this crazyassed little guy with his hairbrained scheme.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
The voice came from the other side of the clothes. “Do you
have it on?”<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
“Sir, I don’t mean to be rude, but are you sure about this?
I really need the money I get from working here.”<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
“Tut-tut, my boy. Hurry. I want to make one tour around the
lobby and public rooms before you start your shift. Time’s a wastin’.”<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Mark pulled the dress over his head and let it fall into
place. The skirt was just full enough to swing when he walked, so no one would
notice his cock under it. “Uh, I don’t have any boobs.”<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
“Let me see.”<span style="font-family: "MS Mincho"; mso-ascii-font-family: Cambria; mso-hansi-font-family: Cambria;">
</span><o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
“See what? What I haven’t got?”<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
He stepped out.<span style="font-family: "MS Mincho"; mso-ascii-font-family: Cambria; mso-hansi-font-family: Cambria;">
</span>Pennymaker
looked at him studiously. “Gorgeous. You don’t have breasts, but then neither
do some women to speak of. I’m more concerned about the hairy legs. Go shave,
quickly.”<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
“What? Sir, I don’t think so….”<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
“This won’t be your only modeling assignment, I suspect, so
think of it as a long-term investment. Consider that brilliant young model who
used to walk the catwalks in both male and female shows. You’re at least her
equal in beauty.”<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Former Navy SEAL Axel Blaze lives a solitary life. He doesn't do emotions, and he doesn't do babysitting. Used to being on his own, his job consists of Wetwork (a charming term coined by the KGB) for his former Master Chief, Mac. When an out-of-the-ordinary job lands on his doorstep, Axel heads down a path that includes a famous heavy metal rock band and one quiet, vulnerable, guitar-shredding virtuoso named Gareth Wolf. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">
</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Gareth Wolf's life changed in an instant when a car he was a passenger in crashed, hurting his brother's best friend and the band's lead guitarist. They created the band, Skull Blasters, as kids. Gareth had always been happy in the background, playing roadie. With the lead guitarist's injury, Gareth is suddenly thrust into the limelight and into a frenzied life he never imagined for himself. Finally fed up with living a lie, Gareth comes out as gay in a newspaper interview and finds himself in the bulls-eye of a crazed stalker. Somebody wants Gareth hurt - or worse - and Mac has been hired to be sure that doesn't happen. Babysitting duty is NOT Axel's strong suit, but Mac won't be budged. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">
</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Enter Axel Blaze. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">
</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Against his better judgment, the big man takes the job to protect the shy musician. The more time he spends with Gareth Wolf, the more he admires the man. Where's a simple assassination when you need one? The situation becomes more volatile for each man as the attempts on Gareth escalate just as Axel finds himself falling for the quiet lead guitarist. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">
</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Strong, funny, smart-ass -- and kinda sweet Axel is everything Gareth has ever wanted in a man. Too bad he's off limits. As the stalker grows bolder, Gareth and Axel move closer emotionally - but is it too late? All Axel knows is that they don't stand a chance if he can't find the maniac trying to kill the man he's come to care about. A lot. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Everyone knows that relationships that begin in pressured or volatile situations eventually fizzle out. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Or do they?</span><br />

Hell yes, sign me up!!! She knows how to write an Alpha and Axel is of course super”never bottom”-alpha ex Navy SEAL. I really liked this book, it flowed really well, the only fault I found was I wanted more SEX, yeah I said it. The rub offs were super hot and when Axel and Gareth finally got around to doing in deed, it was hot. I can’t wait to read about Jinx in the next book in </span></div>

<div style="border: 9px groove #fdf486; height: 400px; overflow: auto; width: 98%;">
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Thumping music was shaking the walls of the Dome as I headed for my designated spot. I guess I’m meeting Paul, the band’s manager.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;" /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I took mental notes as I passed through the crowd of screaming, jumping people. The band was rocking it out and I sought out Gareth Wolf. There were two guitarists, but I found him right away. Black hair touched his shoulders and his lean body moved with his guitar. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;" /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">He was in his element. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;" /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">The song was wrapping up and the floor was shaking from the bass drum. The floor-to-ceiling speakers pumped out the last notes of the song. The crowd immediately went wild as Ransom Fox leaned over the stage.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;" /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">“Let’s hear it for the best lead guitarist on the planet!” he shouted.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;" /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Gareth shook his hair back and bowed with one hand out. Again, the crowd screamed, shouted and whistled. Ransom went on to give some love to the other members of the group.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;" /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I rolled my eyes and pushed my way through the crowd toward the side of the stage. A large man eyed me and then nodded as I walked by. Again, I could have been wearing a ‘Hello, I’m God’ tag and security wouldn’t have batted an eyelash. As it was, my tag faced backwards; he couldn’t even see my name or credentials. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;" /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Security for the Skull Blaster band was sorely lacking.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;" /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I sat through another hour of bone-jarring hardcore metal before the band finally left the stage. I scanned the area for their manager, but no luck. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;" /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I walked right behind the curtain and fell into step with the band members as they trudged toward their dressing rooms. They didn’t even notice me — and I’m really hard to miss.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;" /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">They stepped into the dressing room; I followed and slammed the door shut behind me. Ransom turned and his eyes widened.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;" /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">“Who the fuck are you?!”</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;" /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">“Nice of you to finally notice me,” I pointed out.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;" /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">“Paul!” Ransom thundered. He immediately moved in front of Gareth, shielding him.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;" /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">“Oh for fucks sake.” I rolled my eyes.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;" /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">The door behind me opened and a startled man looked me over from head to toe. He flipped my name badge over and sighed audibly, clearly relieved.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;" /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">“It’s cool, Ransom. This is the guy I was telling you about.”</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;" /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">“You could have mentioned he was a semi-truck.” Ransom’s eyes narrowed.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;" /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">“I’m sorry I couldn’t meet you,” Paul apologized to me. “I ran into some media and couldn’t get away.”</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;" /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">“Not that this isn’t fun — because, oh so much fun — but I’m here to do a job. So I need to speak to whoever is in charge of ‘security.’ Now.” I leaned very slightly — but effectively — in to Paul’s face.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;" /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">“Why?”</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;" /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I turned to see Gareth peeking out from behind his brother’s broad shoulders. His eyes were a shade of green I’d never seen before, and with his pale complexion and dark hair? The guy was a looker and then some.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;" /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">“Because band security royally sucks. I walked right on back here with them and not one person noticed or stopped me. That is not acceptable.”</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;" /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">“Who are you?” Gareth gaped.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;" /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I pinned him with a hard look. “I’m your bodyguard.”</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;" /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Ransom chuckled.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;" /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">“What the actual fuck?” Gareth stepped in front of his brother. “Is this a joke?”</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;" /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">“Nope.” Ransom shook his head.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;" /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">“Jinx, Harley, Rebel. Give us a few, eh?” Paul opened the door and tilted his head toward the hallway.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;" /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">“Sure thing, boss.” Rebel tipped his hat and winked at me.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;" /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I leaned against the wall as the members walked out. I overheard one of them, not sure which, talking to another.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;" /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">“Did you see the size of that guy?”</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;" /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">“How could you miss him?” another one answered.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;" /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Paul shut the door and turned to Gareth with an apologetic smile. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;" /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">“I knew what you’d say if we told you beforehand,” he admitted.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;" /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">“Oh, did you now? You had to get me Conan the Destroyer? Jesus Christ!”</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;" /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">“Gareth,” Ransom warned.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;" /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">“What? This is stupid! I don’t need a human shield!”</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;" /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">“You’re going to play nice and allow this man to watch your back, Gareth!” Ransom shouted. “You’re getting threats since you came out! I insist you be kept safe!”</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;" /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">“Gareth, why don’t you go clean up? Then you and Mr. Blaze can get acquainted.”</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;" /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">“Seriously? Blaze?” Gareth snorted.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;" /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I narrowed my eyes at the kid. Well, to me he was a kid, after everything I’d seen in my life. Gareth was almost twenty-three and I was pushing thirty. We locked eyes for a few seconds before he turned away.</span></div>

<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Best selling author, Sandrine (Sandy) was born in Inglewood, California. Raised by "Old School" French parents, she later moved to Tucson, AZ. It was there that writing became a hobby. Always told she had a great imagination, Sandy wrote short stories for her friends in High School. In college, she took more writing classes while working on her Criminal Justice degree, but it wasn't until a soap opera caught her eye that she got involved in male on male romances. On the advice of a friend, Sandy dipped her toes into the world of M/M Romance. Sandy takes the writing seriously and has had countless conversations with gay men as well as hours of research. She's been involved with the military in one way or another for over twenty years, and has a great deal of respect for our men in uniform. She's traveled the world, but has finally returned to Arizona</span>.</div>

<b><span style="font-family: "Emilys Candy"; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 107%; mso-bidi-font-style: italic;">He’d give his life to
protect the president’s son. But he never expected to risk his heart.</span></b><span style="font-family: "Emilys Candy"; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 107%; mso-bidi-font-style: italic;"><br />
<br />
Growing up gay in the White House hasn’t been easy for Rafael Castillo.
Codenamed “Valor” by the Secret Service, Rafa feels anything but brave as he
hides in the closet and tries to stay below the radar in his last year of
college. His father’s presidency is almost over, and he just needs to stick to
his carefully crafted plan. Once his family’s out of the spotlight, he can be
honest with his conservative parents about his sexuality and his dream of being
a chef. <br />
<br />
It’s definitely not part of Rafa’s plan to get a new Secret Service agent who’s
a walking wet dream, but he’s made it this long keeping his desires to himself.
Besides, it’s not like Shane Kendrick would even look at him twice if it wasn’t
his job.<br />
<br />
Shane’s worked his way up through the Secret Service ranks, and while
protecting the president’s shy, boring son isn’t his dream White House
assignment, it’s an easy enough task since no one pays Rafa much attention. He
discovers there’s a vibrant young man beneath the timid public shell, and while
he knows Rafa has a crush on him, he assures himself it’s harmless. Shane’s
never had room for romance in his life, and he’d certainly never cross that
line with a protectee. Keeping Rafa safe at any cost is Shane’s mission. <br />
<br />
But as Rafa gets under his skin, will they both put their hearts on the line?</span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Emilys Candy"; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 107%; mso-bidi-font-style: italic;">After writing for years yet never
really finding the right inspiration, Keira discovered her voice in gay
romance, which has become a passion. She writes contemporary, historical,
paranormal and fantasy fiction, and—although she loves delicious angst along
the way—Keira firmly believes in happy endings. For as Oscar Wilde once said,
“The good ended happily, and the bad unhappily. That is what fiction means.”</span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Long before he was a successful songwriter and black-belt badass, Blue was a survivor. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">He escaped a program designed to cure him. One that left him near death with nothing to rely on but the kindness of a stranger. Hostile and headstrong, he needed a calmer influence to balance his fury. Someone to save him from himself. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">
</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Brady’s life was quiet and orderly until fate sent him a blue-eyed hurricane. Bursts of temper and flashes of despair battered his efforts to quiet the storm in a man he doubted he could tame. One drowning in the wreckage of his past. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">With a head full of lies and a body full of scars, Blue worked to rebuild his life with the help of a man who showed him sometimes trust is worth the risk.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">
</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Blue features one of the most popular characters from the Saving Liam saga! Destined for greatness, he reveals the past that made him the scarred bad boy readers love.</span></div>

<div style="border: 9px groove #fdf486; height: 400px; overflow: auto; width: 98%;">
<div class="MsoNormal">
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">A burst of resolve pushed Blue through the open doors of Brady’s office but left him speechless when he crossed the threshold. Brady stood near the window in a dark polo shirt that covered broad shoulders and the swell of pecs. He knew from experience that body was as solid as the wall he was tempted to lean against for support. Desire made him dizzy, anxious, twitchy.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">
</span></div>
</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">“Hi.” Brady smiled when he saw him, an expression that had always been warm and reassuring.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">
</span></div>
</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">He let it soothe him as he stepped further into the room caught between the fear of looking like an idiot and frustration over unanswered questions. He grabbed the frustration and held it close.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">
</span></div>
</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">“I have a question, and I don't know how to ask it.”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">
</span></div>
</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">“Well,” Brady rested his ass against the windowsill and crossed his legs at the ankles, “you can either stumble around with it or just spit it out. I'm okay with blunt.”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">
</span></div>
</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">“You might be sorry you said that in a minute.” He tried to smile, refusing to wipe sweaty palms on his jeans. “Are you gay?”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">
</span></div>
</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Brady's eyebrows twitch up his forehead, and he blinked. “That's blunt.”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">“I said you'd be sorry.”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">
</span></div>
</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">“You did.” Brady nodded, folding his arms.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">
</span></div>
</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Brady took longer contemplating the answer than he'd expected. He didn't know what that meant. His stomach clenched, heat spreading through his chest, threatening to bubble into a blush so hot it charred his skin.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">
</span></div>
</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">“Yes. I'm gay.” Brady stared back at him.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">
</span></div>
</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">He was so relieved he wanted to laugh. He hadn't misread that part, and if that much was true, he wondered if he'd misread any of it. He decided to stick with blunt.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">
</span></div>
</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">“In that case, I have another question.” He took a few steps closer, leaving several feet between them.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">
</span></div>
</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">“I thought you might.”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">
</span></div>
</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">“Do you like me?”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">
</span></div>
</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">“Of course, I like you.”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">
</span></div>
</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">“No. I mean are you into me?”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">
</span></div>
</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Brady's attempt at a pleasant expression crumpled into a frown. “Why?”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">
</span></div>
</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">“Because I've been feeling things and sensing things, and I'm tired of guessing whether they’re real.”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">
</span></div>
</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">It was the most honest he'd been with anyone in months and for the first time since running off to fail at life a year ago, he didn't feel the tight knot of apprehension that usually followed those confessions. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">
</span></div>
</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">He had secrets. Dark things he never shared because the camp taught him more than how to loathe physical contact. It taught him the value of keeping everything to himself. Brady was the exception. Blue kept him in the dark because he hid everything from everyone, but Brady knew most of his secrets already. Nothing he confessed ever seemed to shock him, though that conversation came close.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">
</span></div>
</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">“What kind of things?” Brady's tone was quiet, gentle.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">
</span></div>
</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">“Things that make me wish I wasn't afraid to touch you.”<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Award winning author DP Denman writes character-driven contemporary romance about gay men. Her stories are real and intense, but resolve in endings that make people want to read the book all over again. She lives among the moss and trees of the Pacific Northwest with a rambunctious pair of fur babies.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">In her spare time, she is a dedicated LGBTQIA rights activist with a special focus on the thousands of rejected and abandoned kids who end up on the street every year. To support the cause, 25% of the royalties from every book go to LGBT charities.</span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">On 9/11, firefighter Nick Fletcher’s world changed forever. He's unable to rid himself of survivor’s guilt, made worse by the secret he hides from his family and co-workers. Nick's life is centered around helping burn victims, until he is reunited with the man he’d once loved but pushed away. Now he has a second chance at a love he thought lost forever.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">For fashion designer Julian Cornell, appearances mean everything. His love affairs are strictly casual, and the only thing he cares about is making his clothing line a success. A chance encounter with the man he loved long ago has Julian thinking for the first time in years there may be more to life than being seen at the best parties and what designer labels to wear.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">When Julian’s world takes an unexpected turn, it's Nick who helps him regain perspective on what matters most in life. Julian, in turn, helps Nick accept who he is and understand he isn’t responsible for tragedies he couldn't prevent. Lost love found can be even sweeter the second time around and after all the years apart, both men learn to look beyond the surface to find the men they are inside.</span></div>

<div style="border: 9px groove #fdf486; height: 400px; overflow: auto; width: 98%;">
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Julian was in the kitchen, sitting on one of the stools by the counter. He had a glass in front of him filled with what Nick presumed was vodka, having spied the Grey Goose bottle.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;" /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">“Would you like a drink? I have beer, wine…anything you’d like.”</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;" /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Nick shook his head, regret piercing his heart as he watched the hope drain from Julian’s eyes.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;" /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">“I don’t think so. I’m going to head home. I want you to know how much I appreciate what you did for Jamal tonight.”</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;" /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Julian stood abruptly, kicking the stool away from his feet.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;" /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">“Don’t treat me like I’m some fucking stranger, Nicky. You owe me. It’s been eighteen years; you think I’m going to let you walk out on me again like you did before? After what just happened between us? After you fell apart? No fucking way. I’m not that same person and neither are you, obviously.”</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;" /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Taken aback by Julian’s anger, Nick remained mute.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;" /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">“What the hell is going on with you? One minute you’re tongue fucking me into the next century and the next you’re freaking out. I know I’m a damn good kisser, but this isn’t about us, is it? It has nothing to do with our past and everything to do with you and the shit that’s floating around in your head.”</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;" /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Julian stepped closer to him and Nick, who normally couldn’t stand people near him, was rooted to the floor, unable to move.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;" /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">“Talk to me, Nicky. Tell me what happened to you.”</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;" /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">He was so tired of holding himself together, feeling like at any moment he’d shatter into a million tiny pieces, leaving nothing behind but a pile of dust.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;" /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Ashes to ashes, dust to dust.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;" /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">The words poured out of him, flowing unchecked this time. “It should’ve been me. We all went to the Towers to save them. It was my day off, but I went anyway. I heard and couldn’t stay home; I had a duty to help, you know? But I lived and they all died. Why, Julian? Why did I live and they didn’t?”</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;" /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">“Oh, Nick.” Julian held him close. “I don’t have the answers for you. No one does. But I’m going to be completely selfish and say I’m so thankful you did make it and we’re here together after all these years.”</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;" /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Unflinching green eyes gazed back at him. Clever, beautiful eyes that Nick could never stop dreaming of. Eyes that at one time had held the promise of forever, until Nick ruined everything with his cowardice and shame. Unable to maintain Julian’s scrutiny, Nick broke away and ran to the elevator, his chest heaving, eyes stinging with tears.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;" /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">“Let me out. I need to leave here. NOW.”</span></div>

<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I have always been a romantic at heart. I believe that while life is tough, there is always a happy ending just around the corner. I started reading traditional historical romances when I was a teenager, then life and law school got in the way. It wasn’t until I picked up a copy of Bertrice Small and became swept away to Queen Elizabeth’s court that my interest in romance novels became renewed.</span></div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">
</span></div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">But somewhere along the way, my tastes shifted. While I still enjoys a juicy Historical romance, I began experimenting with newer, more cutting edge genres and discovered the world of Male/Male romance. Once I picked up her first, I became so enamored of the authors, the character-driven stories and the overwhelming emotion of the books, I knew I wanted to write my own.</span></div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">
</span></div>

<div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I live in New York City with my husband and two children and hopefully soon a cat of my own. My day begins with a lot of caffeine and ends with a glass or two of red wine. I practice law but daydream of a time when I can sit by a beach somewhere and write beautiful stories of men falling in love. Although there is bound to be angst along the way, a Happily Ever After is always guaranteed</span><b>.</b></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">The man who has been more of a dad to me than my biological father is dead.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">He rescued me from the streets six years ago—a runaway teenage boy, escaping a family who thought I was an abomination.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">
</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Now what do I do? I have no one.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">
</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">My life might look great from the outside. I’m in college. I have my own apartment. I have lots of friends.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">But I’m dying on the inside.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I feel so alone. Lost. Hopeless.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">
</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I’m not the kind of person to wallow in self-pity. I need a distraction.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"> </span> <div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">
</span></div>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"> <div style="text-align: left;">
Having been awake all night, I step out of the shower. The rally doesn’t start until noon, but I need something, anything that can distract me from thinking about what happened with Adam. Giving him space is what Martha and Sarah think I should do, so I decide to let a single day pass. But if I don’t hear from him by tomorrow, I will make the first move to fix things between us. And besides, Adam still needs help setting up his apartment before his mother arrives, and I want to be that help.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
I finish getting ready, and take one last look at my hair before leaving my apartment. I park my car in the student parking lot.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
The university I attend has a large green space in the middle of campus. Mature trees line the sidewalks that are sparsely filled with students going to and from their classes and dormitories. In the fall the grounds will be teeming with students.</div>
</span></div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I look at the time on my cell. 8:21am. I have over three and a half hours to kill before the rally. Where to go? The library? No. I didn’t need to go over my speech any more, since I’ve spent several early morning hours already working on it. I am ready. So I decide to get a bite of breakfast in the cafeteria.</span></div>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"> </span> <div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">
</span></div>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"> <div style="text-align: left;">
When I walk inside, I see Adam at a table filling out some paperwork. I freeze in place. I am in a quandary whether to approach him or not, whether to follow Martha and Sarah’s advice or not, whether to tamp down my desire to sit down next to him to say how sorry I am—<i>or not</i>.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Adam looks at me. Did he feel me staring at him? Before I can step back to the entrance to leave, he waves me over. I feel my shoulders relax as relief rolls through me. At least he is willing to talk to me again. I take cautious steps in his direction. Gone are his jeans and T-shirt and facial hair. He is clean-shaven, wearing black slacks and a white dress shirt and blue tie. Casual or dress up, with whiskers or without, Adam is the epitome of masculine beauty.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
“Have a seat, Oliver.”</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
I do, waiting for him to lay into me again about seeing his prosthetic legs. “Would you mind if I put your name down as a reference on this application? They’re asking for a student or professor’s name. You’re the only one I know.” He looks at me with those damn gorgeous doe eyes. “I have the option to leave it blank if you don’t want me to.”</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
“Please. Use my name. I’ll be happy to be your reference.” <i>Your friend. Your boyfriend. Whatever. </i></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
“Thanks, buddy.” He smiles and then goes back to filling out the paperwork.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
I have the strongest urge to bring up what happened last night to try to clear the air. But hearing Martha and Sarah’s words of advice replay in my head, I keep my mouth shut. If he isn’t ready to talk about it, then I certainly am not going to mention it. I will give him whatever space and time he needs. At least he isn’t asking me to leave.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
“Done.” He stands. “Wish me luck.”</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
“Sure. For what?”</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
“That I can get a job in the cafeteria. Are you in a hurry?”</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
“I don’t have to be anywhere until noon.”</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
“Good. Let me turn this in and maybe I could trouble you with that tour around campus you offered me.”</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
I am so glad he’s asking for my help. “I’ll be happy to show you some shortcuts.”</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
“You’re a lifesaver. My sense of direction is shot. I wish you could have seen the look on my face when I walked into the women’s locker room by mistake earlier. Why the door was unlocked I have no clue, but I could feel my cheeks burning when the girls started giggling and running for cover. I turned and walked out as fast I could, buddy.”</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
“You really do need my help. It took me a whole semester to figure out how to get around this place. But I’m surprised that you walked into the women’s locker room. Isn’t a good sense of direction necessary on the battlefield?” Oh shit. <i>Why did I bring that up? </i></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
“It’s easy on the battlefield. You just have to know where the bullets are coming from.” He smiles, which makes me feel better. “I’m starving, how about you?”</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
“Famished.”</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
“Breakfast is on me.” He hands me a twenty-dollar bill. “The lady in charge asked me to fill this out today but won’t be able to interview me until next week. Let me turn this application in and you order us some breakfast. Then we’ll go on the tour. I’ll be right back.”</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
He walks away. His limp is gone. No one in the cafeteria has a clue that he is missing a leg but me. And it certainly doesn’t bother me, not one bit. I don’t know how he lost his leg, but obviously he hasn’t quite accepted it yet. He mentioned a friend was supposed to help him initially, but the guy never showed. Did Adam have any help packing and loading before driving to Mockingbird Place? He didn’t seem overly tired that night, but he is a strong guy. A former-Marine. I guess he’s not limping because he got some rest after unloading his things into Malcolm’s old place. <i>No, Adam’s place. Unit A is Adam’s.</i></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
I go and order two sausage egg cheese biscuits and orange juices for us. When I get back to our table, he is already there.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Adam looks up at me. “Breakfast is served?”</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
I place the tray on the table. “Yes, sir.” I can’t resist and salute Adam, instantly worrying I might be overstepping again. Thus far he’s been very closed mouth about his military service. But he returns the salute with a devilish grin, easing my concerns.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
We eat our breakfast, talking about everything except the main issue on my mind.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
“I bet you’re glad our complex has a pool,” he says. “It’s going to be very hot according the weatherman for the next several days.”</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
“You like to swim?”</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
He shrugs. “I used to.”</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
I brace myself, thinking we might be getting close to opening Pandora’s box about what happened.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
But as usual, Adam changes the subject. “Oliver, how about you show me the buildings where my classes are going to be first?” </div>
</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"></span>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">“Sure thing.”</span></div>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"> </span> <div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">
</span></div>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"> <div style="text-align: left;">
He hands me his schedule, and I realize the lid on the infamous box is not only shut tight, it is also locked with no sign of the key in sight. What is it going to take for Adam to explain his sudden and over-the-top reaction to me learning he lost his leg? And will I ever learn if he is gay or straight?</div>
</span></div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">As we leave the cafeteria, he asks, “Do you know the guy who lives in Unit D? Long black hair. Blue eyes. Good looking. He invited me to a party tonight at his and his roommate’s place.”</span></div>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"> </span> <div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">
</span></div>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"> <div style="text-align: left;">
“That’s Trace. I’m going, too. In fact the whole complex should be there. It’ll give you another change to get to know everyone.”</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
“The ones who helped us move my things were very nice, though the MMA fighter is a bit intense.”</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
“Tony’s that way, but I believe he’s really a good guy underneath all that darkness.”</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
“I wasn’t sure I would go, but now that I know you’re going I will.”</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
We had so much drama last night, and today he’s acting like it never happened. Now, he says he only is going to the party if I’m going. Damn. He confuses me so much. I sense now is not the time to confront him with what I’m feeling. But if not now, when? “I’m glad you’re going, too.”</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
We walk around campus, and I point out the iconic spots.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
“That’s Dallas Hall, the oldest building on campus.”</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
“It’s quite grand. I like the dome.”</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
When we got to the building that had the last class on his list, he turns to me.</div>
</span></div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
</div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">“Thanks, buddy.”</span></div>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"></span> <span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"> <i></i></span> <div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><i><i>Buddy.</i> There’s that word again. But better to be called that than nothing. I did say I would settle for friendship, but can I really? The more time I spend with him the more my feelings get mixed up.</i></span></div>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><i> </i> <div style="text-align: left;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
“No trouble, Adam. I enjoyed hanging out.”</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
“Me, too. I would have been completely lost on my first day of classes if it hadn’t been for you and your fantastic tour.” He sighs. “I better get back to looking for a job.”</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
“Do you plan on working the entire time you’re in school?”</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
“Yeah. With the financial aid I’m getting I don’t have to work, but I want to. It will give me extra spending money and will keep me busy.”</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
I have a feeling that he likes keeping busy so he doesn’t have to face bigger issues inside him. “You don’t seem like you would be happy working in food service to me. Have you thought about doing something else?”</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
“Like what?”</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
“I know the guy who heads the campus police department, Chief Torres. He told me the other day he has two openings. I bet he’d love to hire you, especially with your military background.”</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
“Right.” Adam shakes his head. “A one-legged Marine would make such a great police officer.”</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
I am nervous to push him, but have to try. At least he’s mentioning his service—<i>and missing leg</i>. It’s a start. “Adam, I saw you unload that truck and move all those boxes and furniture into your place. You’re strong and capable. You would definitely be an asset to Torres’s department.”</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
“You really think so?” My cell rings. “I know so.”</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
I answer the call. “Oliver, where are you?” Candy’s voice sounds frantic.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
“I’m at the engineering building.”</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><b>Though starting in straight erotic romance, Kris's total focus now is on gay romance. When asked why recently, his answer was "My muse finally came out of the closet. Isn't it about time? I’ve been out since I was twenty-five." A voracious reader, Kris loves many genres of fiction, but this writer's favorite books are romances that are edgy, sexy, with rich characters and unique challenges. Kris' influences include Anne Rice, JR Ward, Lexi Blake and Shayla Black. Last year, Kris married the love of his life Stephen. </b></span></div>

Campbell’s life couldn’t be better. He is about to restore a Ford Mustang with
his dad before heading off on the ultimate cross-country road trip with his
best friend, Tanner McKenzie.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="background: white; font-family: "Bookman Old Style",serif; mso-bidi-font-family: Helvetica;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="background: white; font-family: "Bookman Old Style",serif; mso-bidi-font-family: Helvetica;">But tragedy strikes, and
Andrew’s life is shattered. Worried his
family will be torn apart if he doesn’t step in, Andrew makes a tough choice
between following his heart and doing what he needs to do to protect his little
brother.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="background: white; font-family: "Bookman Old Style",serif; mso-bidi-font-family: Helvetica;">When Andrew pushes Tanner
away, Tanner heads off on the planned trip alone. Once Tanner leaves town, his
life takes a different path and it’s ten years before he returns. Now a
firefighter, he’s never forgotten his first love, and no one has ever taken
Andrew’s place in his heart. He’s determined to see if Andrew feels the same
way. He just hopes Andrew’s excited to see him, hopes that he’s available—and finally
out—after all this time.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Bookman Old Style",serif; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman";">THE SWEET pungency of garlic wafting
through the air combined with the aroma of hot and spicy pepperoni with
mushrooms—heaven. Andrew tried to watch his diet, conscious of his carbs and
fat intake, but a weekly pizza was his one weakness. Meeting Tanner at the
Pizza Place gave him an excuse to indulge while catching up with his best
friend.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Bookman Old Style",serif; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman";"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Bookman Old Style",serif; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman";">“Are you going to eat that?” Tanner
indicated the remaining slice on the plate in the middle of the table. “Because
if you don’t take it in the next ten seconds, it’s mine.”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Bookman Old Style",serif; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman";"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Bookman Old Style",serif; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman";">“Hey, hands off,” Andrew said as he
snatched the piece of pizza and placed it on the empty plate in front of him.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Bookman Old Style",serif; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman";"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Bookman Old Style",serif; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman";">Tanner held his hands up, palms facing
Andrew, in mock surrender. “All right. It’s all yours. I wouldn’t want to come
between you and your pizza.” Andrew warmed at the familiarity of the words.
They’d been coming here on Thursday nights for years and the routine never
changed. Tanner always gave Andrew more than his fair share of the pizza, and
Andrew took it, but not without a bit of lighthearted banter.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Bookman Old Style",serif; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman";"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Bookman Old Style",serif; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman";">“You know, you could do with a bit of
fattening up,” Andrew said, taking in his friend’s lean frame.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Bookman Old Style",serif; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman";"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Bookman Old Style",serif; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman";">Tanner just raised his eyebrows and
kept on eating. It was another routine with them—Andrew’s friendly teasing
about Tanner’s looks—but in reality, Tanner’s frame had started to fill out
over the last year, something Andrew had begun to notice. He’d also noticed
other people looking and assumed Tanner wouldn’t have any trouble attracting a
guy, if that’s what he was looking for. Although Andrew knew Tanner’s
preferences, he was relieved Tanner didn’t share any other details.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Bookman Old Style",serif; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman";">Andrew gave Tanner a once-over as he
filled his mouth and chewed thoughtfully. At six feet, Tanner had the body of a
swimmer, tall and lean with sleek muscles. Andrew thought he moved like a
swimmer too. He was smooth and graceful, and purposeful in his movements. Even
now, as he brought the pizza to his mouth, he did so with slender hands and
delicate fingers—fingers Andrew found himself staring at while Tanner sucked
the grease from them. Tanner pulled the last digit from his mouth with a soft
popping sound and smacked his lips. “Yum.” He looked at Andrew. “What?”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Bookman Old Style",serif; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman";"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Bookman Old Style",serif; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman";">Andrew tore his gaze away from Tanner’s
shining lips, cleared his throat, and turned the conversation to the trip
they’d been discussing before the meal arrived.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Bookman Old Style",serif; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman";"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Bookman Old Style",serif; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman";">“Dad brought home some more brochures
last night. I think he’s more excited about the trip than we are.”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Bookman Old Style",serif; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman";"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Bookman Old Style",serif; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman";">“Nah. Not possible.” Tanner grinned. “I
can hardly wait. Beginning of summer and we’re outta here, man. Six months. I’m
counting the days. Six months till freedom. Bring it on.”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Bookman Old Style",serif; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman";"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Bookman Old Style",serif; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman";">Tanner’s enthusiasm was as infectious
as always, and Andrew couldn’t help but smile at him. The background music in
the restaurant switched over from a slow track to some Italian mambo track, the
upbeat tempo matching his mood. Andrew stacked the plates on the table and
moved them to the side, making room for the folder he placed in front of
Tanner. He then took the map tucked into the back cover, unfolded it, and
spread it across the red-and-white tablecloth.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Bookman Old Style",serif; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman";"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Bookman Old Style",serif; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman";">“Dad got another brochure on the Grand
Canyon, but we’ve already covered that.” He used his finger to point to
Arizona. It was going to be the destination for an overnight hike that would
test their skills. They were used to hiking around Halls Ridge but not to the
extremes of temperature and lack of water in the canyon. “We haven’t really
spoken about Florida yet.” As he spoke, Andrew took a glossy foldout from his
pocket and flattened it to the table. “See here—”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Bookman Old Style",serif; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman";"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Bookman Old Style",serif; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman";">“Hold up, Drew.” Tanner reached across
and stilled Andrew’s hand as it hovered over the map. “I have a wild idea.
Radical, yes? But how ’bout we don’t plan everything to the nth degree and just
play it by ear.”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Bookman Old Style",serif; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman";"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Bookman Old Style",serif; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman";">Tanner’s hand was surprisingly soft
where he held Andrew’s hand. Andrew expected roughened skin from Tanner’s work
as a mechanic. He blushed as he became aware of Tanner waiting for him. “Huh?”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Bookman Old Style",serif; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman";"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Bookman Old Style",serif; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman";">“You know. Just arrive and go with the
flow. Stop when something’s interesting, and move on when it’s not.”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Bookman Old Style",serif; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman";"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Bookman Old Style",serif; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman";">Andrew dragged his thoughts back to the
conversation as Tanner released his hand. “But how will we know how long we
should plan for? Or what we need to take? What if we’d be best to book
something in advance or we miss it? I’d hate to get all the way home and
realize we should have stopped somewhere.”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Bookman Old Style",serif; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman";"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Bookman Old Style",serif; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman";">“Don’t you ever want to take a chance?
Throw caution to the wind?” Tanner tilted his head and looked at him, but
Andrew knew he’d never feel relaxed or comfortable without some sort of road
map and plan.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "Bookman Old Style",serif; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman";">Tanner laughed. “It’s okay, Drew, we
can have a plan. I’m lucky I’ve got you to do all the preparation and make sure
this trip is everything we want it to be. But maybe, just maybe, I’m not saying
you have to, but just think about relaxing a bit? We don’t have a deadline and
can take as long as we like to see the country.”<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Bookman Old Style",serif; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman";">“We can. Take as long as we like, that
is. But the money’s going to run out sometime. I know we’ve both put away a
bit, but it’ll only go so far.”<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "Bookman Old Style",serif; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman";">“And then we’ll be on even more of an
adventure.” Tanner’s eyes gleamed as he winked at Andrew. “Just imagine, we can
camp by the roadside and get laboring jobs. We can pick fruit, sow grain,
shovel horseshit.” He threw his head back in laughter, his full belly laugh
giving Andrew no option but to join in.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Bookman Old Style",serif; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman";">Although he knew Tanner was only
joking, the idea of being stranded in the unknown without any money gave Andrew
the chills.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

pulling the Florida brochure toward him.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Bookman Old Style",serif; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman";">Andrew watched Tanner flip through a
few pages that were a mix of neat handwritten notes and immaculate cutouts from
the various brochures—places to visit, things to see, costs, durations for each
destination, what to pack, and all manner of other information. Information
Andrew had painstakingly researched and written into the book, but Tanner
didn’t need to know that. He didn’t need to know the countless hours Andrew
spent on that notebook, on their dream. Andrew had taken note of every place
Tanner had mentioned when they discussed the trip and made sure he’d included
activities he knew Tanner would enjoy. The notebook had become a labor of love.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
