Surf's Up

Carolina Valdez

Summary

Native American Raven is a successful architect and businessman. He's also an accomplished surfer who, out of fear, typically hides his orientation and is extremely discreet about any sexual liaisons. His haircut and clothing are those of a white man, and his employees and friends know nothing of his early life on a northern California Indian reservation.


Now, six years after leaving the rez, a young man named Hunter literally surfs back into Raven's life. At first Raven doesn't recognize the guy who, as a boy, was his best friend, and also his first love. When he does finally recognize Hunter -- now penniless, drunk, and a lover of the "glam look" -- he sees him as a loser, an embarrassment, yet their reunion will shake some of Raven's most closely held beliefs.


But is he up to the challenge? Will he release those stubborn beliefs and open himself to live life more fully and openly?

The Snaccident

Holly Day

Snack! Timothy needs a snack! Though he fears there aren't enough snacks in the world to keep the walls around his heart intact this time around.


As a highly sensitive empath, Timothy Rose is in constant need of food. He has a hard time keeping his mental shields up, and snacks help. A little. He spends most of his days avoiding people since he easily overloads. The only person he's ever wanted to be close to is Rush Evans, his brother's best friend. But years ago, Rush turned him down despite hooking up with everything with a pulse, so now Timothy refuses to go anywhere near him.


When Timothy's brother begs him to give Rush a ride to his wedding, Timothy says no. Initially. He should've stuck to his guns because nothing ever goes as planned when Rush is nearby, and simply because Timothy can sense Rush wanting him this time around, and the two of them have a bit of an accident and end up in a small room with only one bed, doesn't mean he should throw caution to the wind. Right?
