Summary

When college student Noah wrecks his car late one night, the last face he expects in the ER is Marcus his father’s old friend, the quiet, rough-edged mechanic who’s always kept his distance. With no other place to heal, Noah ends up moving into Marcus’s house.
 
Sharing the same roof stirs what both of them have tried to bury. A glance that lingers too long. A hand brushing past in the kitchen. Marcus tells himself it can’t happen loyalty and guilt keep him locked tight. But Noah, done with hiding, refuses to back down.
 
Tension builds until one night breaks the fragile line they’ve held. Suddenly, desire isn’t the only thing on the table so are loyalties, family, and the weight of everything they stand to lose.
 
One house. One broken boundary. One love neither man can forget.
 
Will they choose fear, or finally admit what’s been there all along?
 
***
 
Their story is one of many in Broken Rules, where love burns brightest when it crosses the line.
 
Some rules aren’t meant to hold.
 
*Broken Rules* is a bold set of standalone steamy gay romances where age, status, and convention don’t stop desire. Each story dives into forbidden looks, dangerous want, and nights that leave a mark tied together by love that hits hard and won’t let go. Stepbrothers. Bodyguards. Rivals. Billionaires. Men who push past lines and take what they can’t ignore.
 
For readers who want high heat, raw emotion, and characters who break every rule for love.
Available since: 08/11/2025.

    The Adventurer is a Barbara Cartland novel like no other. Set before, during and after World War One, this is not the story of a King, a Lord or a dashing battlefield hero: Frank Swinton is quite the opposite. He is an adventurer: a man determined to raise himself above the drudgery of a
 
nine-to-five job. Tall, dark and attractive, if not exactly handsome, he uses his charms to swindle lonely ladies out of their money. That is until he’s trapped by his own weakness and greed in a loveless marriage–and hates himself as much as his obsessive and embittered bride. Eventually he manages to unshackle himself, flee overseas and find the courage to fight for his country–but will he ever escape and rediscover his long-lost soul and the love his greed allowed him to leave behind? All is told in this moving story about a man’s search for redemption and that in the end, love is enough.
