L’infanzia di Terrell Washington è stata una tripla schifezza: non c’è nessun vantaggio a essere nero, gay e povero in America. Terrell si è fatto strada fuori dal ghetto solo per colpire un soffitto di cristallo e trovarsi imprigionato nel ristorante di una popolare catena a fare il barista con una laurea in giornalismo. L’unica nota positiva è Colby Meyers, un suo collega che non ha paure o inibizioni e che non conosce limiti. Terrell e Colby passano l’estate al fiume e le loro pause sul retro del Papiano. Per quanto Terrell sia terrorizzato all’idea di uscire allo scoperto, gli è impossibile stare lontano dal magnetico sorriso di Colby e dalla sua risata contagiosa.

Ma Colby ha finito l’università, adesso, e ha grandi progetti per il futuro… progetti che Terrell è certo che lasceranno il suo nero culo secco nella polvere di Sacramento, fino a un momento mozzafiato, rubato nel mezzo del caos del ristorante, che gli dice che potrebbe sbagliarsi. Quando quell’istante viene infranto da un mistero e da un atto di violenza, Terrell e Colby rimangono con due rompicapi da risolvere: chi ha ucciso quel furfante del loro capo e come potranno far confluire le loro vite, il loro nero e il loro bianco, in un unico scintillante futuro?

Ennek Trilogy: Book One

Praesidium is the most prosperous city-state in the world, due not only to its location at the mouth of a great bay but also to its strict laws, stringently enforced. Ordinary criminals become bond-slaves, but the worst punishment—to be suspended in a dreamless frozen state known as Stasis—is doled out by the wizard and reserved for only the most serious of traitors. 

Ennek is the youngest son of Praesidium’s strict Chief. Though now a successful portmaster, Ennek grew up without much of a purpose, unable to fulfill his true desires and always skating on the edge of the law. But he is also haunted by the plight of one man, Miner, a prisoner for whom Stasis appears to be a truly horrible fate. If Ennek is to save Miner, he must explore Praesidium’s deepest secrets as well as his own.

Malcolm Tate hung up his flogger when his submissive sought out another Dom and landed in the hands of a serial killer. Convinced his lack of dominance sent his sub away, Mal has spent two years blaming himself for what happened.

Especially when he wins beautiful, submissive, firmly closeted Kyle Bingham in a charity slave auction.

When he’s won at auction by the hot, amazing Mal, he’s shocked that anyone would want him. No one else seemed to—not his parents, his former Doms, or any of his disastrous dates.

But Mal does want him and Kyle lets his guard down, only to be outed to his parents. With his world crashing down, he must find a way to trust Mal—and their developing relationship—or risk losing everything.
