Soon they meet up at a local bar after work. Doug tells Lloyd he married his high school sweetheart after graduation but now, ten years and a young son later, Doug is in the process of getting a divorce and looking to explore his sexuality. Even though they seem to hit it off, Doug runs out on him when Lloyd gets up to pay the bill. 
Later that evening, Doug calls to ask for a second chance. However, this second date also results in Doug bailing.

    I see you, Roman. You want to fight me, and then you want to be so good for me. 
    We’re lost boys, wild and forgotten. Born into a world of poverty and crime, my two best friends and I have nothing to rely on except each other. But I have a plan: if I can film viral BDSM porn, I might rake in enough cash to get us out of this trailer park before we become another gang violence statistic. Kink is a rich man’s game—high-end clubs, dungeons full of toys—but maybe two dirt-poor boys with homemade gear can still compete. 
    First, I need a sub. I’m looking for someone perfect and obedient—until the new boy moves into town. He’s huge and silent and skittish, broken down by pain and loneliness. But when he’s cornered, he fights like an animal. An animal who desperately wants to be tamed. When I look into his eyes, the flash of submission I see there has me obsessed. When he kneels for me, both our broken worlds become whole. 
    Nobody believes that trailer park boys deserve a better life, that we can find happiness and build our own family. But we’re fighters, and together the four of us will find a way to be free. 
    An intense, emotional story about, resilience and trauma, kink, hurt/comfort, a smaller dom/larger sub, and found family.

    ***** 
    When Kerensa is sent by her father’s auction house to catalogue a neglected house overlooking the sea in Newlyn, Cornwall, it’s a welcome escape. Once the home of two female artists, Harbour House is a treasure trove, but one painting in particular catches Kerensa’s eye – a hypnotically sensual portrait of a beautiful young woman which dominates the hallway. 
    Captivated and intrigued, Kerensa finds herself piecing together the enigma of Bathsheba Kernow, a fiercely talented young artist who left St Ives almost a hundred years before, eager to escape a society that wouldn’t understand her, and her sweeping journey from the underbelly of Paris to the heady luxury of Venice, where a chance encounter would change her life for ever, drawing her into the most dangerous and forbidden of love affairs. 
    For Kerensa, still reeling with a grief of her own and facing an uncertain future in love, Harbour House will have secrets that will change her life too, and in ways she could never have imagined…

    A light-hearted, age-gap lesbian romance about starting over and risking it all, even when you're both old enough to know better. 
     
    Teacher Eve Marshall has just crawled out of a bad relationship and has no plans to get twisted up in another romantic mess. Except she never counted on meeting the jaw-dropping Scarlet Hunt. Yoga instructor Scarlet has been focused on raising her daughter since her ex-wife ditched them both to pursue her Hollywood dreams. The last thing she expects is to stumble into Eve's adoring gaze. The teacher at her daughter's school is too young, too cute, and far too interested, so it'd be wildly inappropriate to ask Eve to tutor her daughter. Right? 
     
    As the risk of catching feelings hangs over them, a certain sexy Hollywood ex swaggers back into Scarlet's life, needing one hell of a favor . . . How much more complicated can life get? 
     
    Contains mature themes.
