Hagen Wylie ha dei progetti: vivere nella sua città natale, essere in rapporti amichevoli con tutti, esplorare nuove relazioni, e ricostruire la sua vita dopo gli orrori della guerra. Niente complicazioni, questo è il piano. Sta andando tutto bene… finché non scopre che il suo primo amore è tornato a casa. Lui pensa che non sia un grosso problema, ma un incontro casuale con i due adorabili figli di Mitch Thayer lo mette proprio sulla strada dell’unico uomo che non è mai riuscito a togliersi dalla testa.

Mitch è tornato per tre ragioni: crescere i figli dove è cresciuto lui, trasferire la sua ditta di mobili e farla prosperare, e riconquistare Hagen. Anni di distanza hanno reso chiaro che il ragazzo che ha amato al liceo è l’unico che conta per lui. Qual è il problema? Da quando lui ha lasciato la città, non si sono più parlati.

Se vuole che Hagen si fidi di nuovo di lui, Mitch gli deve dimostrare che è maturato e che stavolta non intende mollare. Potrebbero avere un’altra occasione per amarsi, ma Hagen non vuole sentire ragioni: non intende ricominciare una relazione con Mitch. Però… non si sa mai.

Buch 1 in der Serie - Collars & Cuffs

Seit dem Tod seines Lebensgefährten und Sub vor zwei Jahren hat Leo nicht mehr gelebt – nur noch existiert. Er konzentriert sich darauf, das *Collars&Cuffs*, einen BDSM-Club im Schwulenviertel von Manchester, erfolgreich zu machen. Das ändert sich eines Abends, als er und sein Geschäftspartner sich zu ihrer wöchentlichen Besprechung im Severino’s treffen. Leo kann die Augen nicht von dem neuen Kellner lassen. Der schüchterne Mann scheint entschlossen, Leos Blick zu meiden, doch das ist wie ein rotes Tuch für einen Stier. Leo liebt Herausforderungen. 

Alex Daniels kellnert im Severino’s, um das Geld für eine eigene Wohnung zusammenzukratzen. Er tut sich schwer damit, sich zu outen, doch er fühlt sich zu Leo hingezogen, dem umwerfend gutaussehenden Mann mit den eisig-blauen Augen, der fast jeden Abend in seinem Bereich isst. 

Leo lässt sich Alex‘ Zögern nicht in die Quere kommen. Er hält ihn sogar vom Club fern, um ihn nicht zu erschrecken. Und Alex zu sagen, dass er ein Dom ist? Keine gute Idee. Aus einem Date werden zwei, aber Date Nummer zwei führt sie in Leos Schlafzimmer… und dazu, dass Alex Dinge über sich herausfindet, die ihm nie bewusst waren – und die er nie jemanden sehen lassen wollte.

Carter Schunk ist ein hingebungsvoller Polizist mit einer schwierigen Vergangenheit und einem großen Herzen. Als er zu einer häuslichen Ruhestörung gerufen wird, findet er eine tödlich verletzte Frau und Alex, ein Kind, das dringend Hilfe benötigt. Das Jugendamt wird gerufen und der letzte Mann, den Carter sehen will, tritt durch die Tür. Vor einem Jahr hatte Carter eine kurze Affäre mit Donald und stellte fest, dass dieser kalt wie Eis ist, als sie zu Ende ging.

Donald (Ice) Ickle hatte ein hartes Leben, das er mit niemandem teilt und er hat sein Herz vor allem und jedem verschlossen. Einerseits um sich davor zu bewahren, verletzt zu werden und andererseits, um mit seinem Job, in dem er sehr gut ist, zurechtzukommen, denn er tut, was er tun muss, ohne sich emotional zu involvieren. Als er Carter wiedertrifft, behält er seine übliche Distanz bei, doch Carter geht ihm unter die Haut und entgegen besseren Wissens lässt er sich von Carter dazu überreden, Alex aufzunehmen, als so kurzfristig kein Platz in einer Pflegefamilie zu finden ist. Carter bietet sogar an, ihm bei der Versorgung des Jungen zu helfen.

Donald spricht mit niemandem über seine Vergangenheit, am wenigsten mit Carter, der selbst seine Vergangenheit gern für sich behalten möchte. Doch es sind die Geheimnisse von Alex, die sie zusammenbringen oder auseinanderreißen können ‒ Geheimnisse, die der Junge ihnen nicht erzählen kann, die aber dennoch der Schlüssel zum Glück für sie drei sein könnten.

415 Ink: Book Two

A savior lies in the heart of every good man, but sometimes only love can awaken the man inside the savior.

The world’s had it out for San Francisco firefighter Mace Crawford from the moment he was born. Rescued from a horrific home life and dragged through an uncaring foster system, he’s dedicated his life to saving people, including the men he calls his brothers. As second-in-command of their knitted-together clan, Mace guides his younger siblings, helps out at 415 Ink, the family tattoo shop, and most of all, makes sure the brothers don’t discover his darkest secrets.

It’s a lonely life with one big problem—he’s sworn off love, and Rob Claussen, one of 415 Ink’s tattoo artists, has gotten under his skin in the worst way possible.

Mace’s world is too tight, too controlled to let Rob into his life, much less his heart, but the brash Filipino inker is there every time Mace turns around. He can’t let Rob in without shaking the foundations of the life he’s built, but when an evil from his past resurfaces, Mace is forced to choose between protecting his lies and saving the man he’s too scared to love.
