Bien des années auparavant, le jeune Nick n’hésitait pas à embrasser son ami Jared sous les gradins de l’école, mais depuis que le docteur Kumpel est devenu pédiatre à l’hôpital que dirige Nicolas Beckert, ce dernier ne lui prête plus aucune attention. Tout change, cependant, quand tous deux se trouvent bloqués ensemble dans une cabine d’ascenseur. Durant ces cinq heures de confinement, dix années d’éloignement glacé s’effacent et leur ancienne passion se réveille, aussi brûlante et irrépressible qu’autrefois.

Une fois libéré, Jared ne compte pas permettre à Nick de recommencer à l’ignorer. Submergé de travail et de responsabilités, le directeur de Ste Anne a désespérément besoin d’un exutoire et Jared est très impatient de le lui fournir. Le problème est que Jared tient à vivre sa liaison au grand jour alors que Nick préfère rester dans le placard. Si les baisers adolescents volés sont devenus des ébats secrets dans la salle du conseil, les deux amants retrouvent vite les mêmes disputes qu’autrefois. Vont-ils encore une fois se déchirer et se séparer ?

Jared s’y refuse catégoriquement. Cette fois-ci, il ne sera pas aussi intransigeant. Loin d’exiger que Nick fasse son coming out, il se souciera des raisons qui le motivent à y rester. Peut-être trouvera-t-il la prescription qui ouvrira à Nick la voie du bonheur.

Struggling business owner George is stuck in the past. Rootless Zephyr lives only in the present. Can they find the courage to build a future together?

At thirty years old, George Harlow is at risk of becoming as fossilized as the prehistoric tourist attraction he inherited—the one that’s headed the way of the dinosaurs. Even if staying afloat didn’t take all his energy, the dating pool in his town is as dry as the desert surrounding it. As for the family trauma from his past? That can stay buried.

Then Zephyr Steiber blows into his life.

Zephyr lives up to his name, drifting wherever Fate takes him, sometimes renting his body in exchange for a ride. With his high heels and lace and bright personality, Zephyr brings a spark of life to George’s dried-up existence.

For a while Zephyr is content to shelter in George’s refuge and to be George’s solace in return. Together they create an oasis. But with Zephyr haunted by the ghosts of bad decisions, and with George’s home and livelihood threatened by a global pandemic, can their tentative dreams for a future together survive reality?

Jackson and Ellery face their toughest case yet—against the criminal justice system itself.

Jackson Rivers and Ellery Cramer have worked difficult jobs before, but usually it’s getting the facts that’s the problem. For their newest client, the trouble isn’t finding the truth—it’s corruption at the highest levels of the justice system. It isn’t enough to find the actual perpetrator and unveil a heartless plot—not when the DA is the bad guy and he’s using cops as his goons. Keeping their vulnerable client alive and out of jail takes blood, sweat, and tears.

When one of their major antagonists is killed and the DA tries to pin the death on Jackson, he’ll need every ounce of luck and all his resources to clear his name—and to find the perpetrator before the DA can use the murder to further his own agenda. They soon find that it’s easier to spot an honest man in a field of thieves than it is to shoot fish in a barrel—and both the man and the fish will be lucky to survive….

Inevitable Duets: Book Three

Steadfast drummer Ash Wright and wild-card bassist Dean Phillips have been best friends forever, but Ash finds himself wanting more. A break from touring should give him the space he needs to get his head on straight–except then Dean moves in with him…. 

Ash has been fighting his growing attraction to Dean ever since an ill-fated threesome on the last leg of their tour. All he wants is some time to get over it. But that doesn’t seem to be in the cards, because Dean’s mom has given his room to his niece, and he doesn’t have anywhere else to stay. Ash has a big house all to himself, so why shouldn’t he move in? 

Because they can’t keep their hands off each other, that’s why.  

Dean never saw himself having feelings for another man, but that’s what’s happening. As he and Ash explore their secret new relationship behind closed doors, they also collaborate to help a struggling charity–one Dean feels close to, since it helps underprivileged kids like he used to be learn music. The time off from touring lets them live in their own little world. 

Then the band reunites for a fundraiser concert, and suddenly the real world intrudes. Can Ash and Dean navigate a relationship that leaves them in harmony with the rest of the group?

Seth Simms wollte niemals Cowboy werden und wenn man Jason Thompson, seinem besten Freund, glauben darf, ist er auch keiner. Er hatte nur zufällig Glück, als sein Bruder und er vor zehn Jahren nach Lang Downs kamen. Hier fand er den nötigen Halt, um die Schule abzuschließen und ein Studium zu beginnen. Aber er hätte nie gedacht, dass Lang Downs für ihn der sichere Hafen werden könnte wie für so viele der anderen, die hier ein Zuhause gefunden hatten. Dazu hatte er zu viel mitgemacht. Und seine Vergangenheit hatte Schäden hinterlassen. Niemand würde einen Mann mit seinen Problemen akzeptieren.

Jason hatte sein ganzes Leben lang nur ein Ziel gehabt: Er wollte Tierarzt werden, nach Lang Downs zurückkehren und hier seinen Beruf ausüben – wann immer er gebraucht wurde. Den Rest seiner Zeit wollte er als Jackaroo arbeiten. Und er freute sich darauf, gelegentlich seinen Freund Seth zu sehen, auch wenn seine Träume von einer gemeinsamen Zukunft hoffnungslos waren. Seth war nicht schwul.

Seths überraschende Rückkehr nach Lang Downs ist für Jason ein zusätzliches Geschenk. Aber es ist nicht einfach, ein Gleichgewicht zwischen seiner Beziehung zu einem der Jackaroos und seiner Freundschaft zu Seth zu finden. Dann erkennt er, wie schwer Seth an seiner Vergangenheit zu tragen hat und mit welchen gefährlichen Mitteln er versucht, seine Probleme zu bewältigen.

Two and a half years ago, Michael Carmody made the biggest mistake of his life. Thanks to the Salinger crew, he has a second chance. Now he’s working as their mechanic and nursing a starry-eyed crush on the crew’s stoic suit, insurance investigator and spin doctor Carl Cox.

Carl has always been an almost-ran, so Michael’s crush baffles him. When it comes to the Salingers, he’s the designated wet blanket. But watching Michael forge the life he wants instead of the one he fell into inspires him. In Michael’s eyes, he isn’t an almost-ran—he just hasn’t found the right person to run with. And while the mechanic and the suit shouldn’t have much to talk about, suddenly they’re seeking out each other’s company.

Then the Salingers take a case from their past, and it’s all hands on deck. For once, behind-the-scenes guys Michael and Carl find themselves front and center. Between monster trucks, missing women, and murder birds, the case is a jigsaw puzzle with a lot of missing pieces—but confronting the unknown is a hell of a lot easier when they’re side by side.

Kann ein kratzbürstiger Zimmermann einem Reality-TV Moderator einen Weg zum Coming Out bauen?

Immobilienguru Brandon Chase weiß, was „familienfreundlich” in der Branche bedeutet, nämlich nicht offen über seine Sexualität zu sein.

Das Aus von Brandons Ehe ist immer noch in den Schlagzeilen, als der Restoration Channel ihm ein Angebot macht: Er soll eine Serie über den Verkauf von Häusern auf dem riskanten Markt von New York City moderieren. Brandon, der immer noch unter der schlechten Presse leidet, zögert, sich darauf einzulassen – bis er sich in ein altes viktorianisches Haus verliebt.

Doch das Haus ist nicht das einzige, das ihm ins Auge fällt.

Der Bauauftragsnehmer Travis Rogers hat die Aufgabe, all die Dinge aufzulisten, die beim Umbau und der Renovierung eines Hauses schiefgehen können, was zu einer Menge Streitereien am Set und zu beiderseitigem Frust führt. Doch als die unter der Oberfläche schwelende Anziehungskraft zwischen den beiden Männern auflodert, stehen die Sendung und ihre Beziehung auf dem Spiel.

Travis hasst das Medieninteresse, das Brandon verfolgt und der Sender hat in der Vergangenheit immer wieder LGBTQ-Persönlichkeiten entlassen. Wie die Häuser, die Brandon zum Verkauf renoviert, hat auch diese Beziehung Potenzial. Aber wenn Brandon Travis nicht überzeugen kann, ein Risiko einzugehen, bleibt die Chemie zwischen ihnen wohl nur auf der Leinwand.

Lions & Tigers & Bears: Book Two

As part of a military team, Crank needs to keep his head on straight. His unit depends on it. So the recurring sensual dreams he’s having—the ones featuring a shark shifter with dark brown hair and eyes—really screw with his focus. Especially since the shifter is a guy.

Greenland shark shifter Vic can’t stop thinking about Crank, a human military guy he met when Vic got called in for a consult. Crank seems handy with anything that flies, and Vic would be happy to have him at his back, in more ways than one. And that’s a problem—firstly because Vic’s in love with his boyfriend, Saul, but also because Crank is sarcastic, irreverent… and straight.

The problem comes to a head when Saul discovers Vic has been dreaming about a man who isn’t him. Saul does not share. But when Crank starts invading Saul’s dreams too, he has to reassess his feelings. His life may depend on it.

Exploring the growing connection between the three of them will have to wait, though. The upcoming mission demands the team’s full attention. They’re about to discover something huge, and they have badly underestimated the enemy….
