Lights Camera… Love? - A Celebrity Romcom with a Normal Twist

Miles A. Bennett

Synopsis

After a scandal sends rising pop star Alex Rivers running from Hollywood, he ends up in the last place he thought he’d see again his quiet hometown. Fame sticks to him like static, right up until he literally collides with Noah Clarke, the no-nonsense bookstore owner who couldn’t care less about red carpets.

Noah lives for order and the steady rhythm of Havenbrook Books. The shelves, the silence, the small-town routine it’s all he needs. The last thing he wants is reporters crowding his shop or the town buzzing with Alex’s drama. But when Alex’s manager cooks up a “fake friendship” to fix his image, Noah gets dragged into the spotlight.

What begins as staged outings and forced smiles soon shifts. Late-night conversations cut deeper than either expected. Laughter comes easy, and some touches don’t feel like an act. Still, the cameras don’t blink, and rumors threaten the fragile trust building between them.

For Alex, it’s the first real chance to figure out who he is without the spotlight. For Noah, it’s risking the peace he’s always protected for something messy, unscripted, and maybe worth keeping.

Can two men find something real when the world insists it’s all for show?

Brick Walls

L.A. Witt

Cary “Sol” Solomon isn’t just in a slump—he’s a mess. His stats have plummeted. Fans hate him. After he caps off two awful seasons with a catastrophic playoff flop, his team is done with him. Worse, thanks to his downward spiral, the addiction that’s nearly cost him his career before is rearing its ugly head.
As luck would have it, though, the Seattle Sasquatches are desperate for goalies. When they snatch up Sol off waivers, maybe he has a chance to turn things around… if he can stay sober and get back on his game.
Except Sol isn’t the Sasquatches’ only new netminder.
Once destined for the hall of fame, Josh O’Brien is a trainwreck thanks to an injury and a messy divorce. His illustrious career is a disaster, and now he’s an unrestricted free agent who nobody wants to sign. He’s on the brink of losing the only thing he has left: hockey.
Then Seattle comes knocking with an offer he can’t refuse: a huge pay cut, but a shot at redemption. One that means being teammates with the ex whose name still raises Josh’s hackles all these years later.
Now Josh and Sol are stuck on the same team, proximity dredging up emotions they’ve both kept buried for years. Which wouldn’t be so bad if the only things coming to the surface were anger and resentment. As they remember all the sparks and feelings that once drew them together, neither can decide which is worse—being together or apart.
And that’s before Sol’s old demons start showing up.
But they’re not just coming for him this time.
Brick Walls is a 128,000 word contemporary gay hockey romance.

Just Bromantically Invested

Saxon James

Madden
My best friend is uptight, gorgeous, the greatest person I know … and I might be a smidge in love with him. Just a small amount. Barely worth the mention.
Which is a stupid choice on my part when the guy is straight.
Starting a landscaping company with him was the perfect mix of doing what I love and an excuse to spend time with him, only it hasn’t completely taken off yet and now he’s telling me he’s lonely.
Lonely.
Apparently having one friend in your life isn’t enough.
So I’m determined to help him find love. With someone other than me. Maybe if I can pull that off, it’ll mean my heart will finally get the message and move on.
Or finish breaking into a hundred pieces.
Same thing, right?
Penn
Being besties with an overenthusiastic, gold-hearted, nudist of a man is a challenge sometimes. Madden makes everything sunshine when he’s around.
The problem is that he hasn’t been around as much lately. We work together, sure, but he’s got his roommates and I have … no one. Just him. So I feel the distance acutely.
My one reassurance is that we have work tying us together, but when an old client calls with a proposition for us, it feels like our once solid friendship is unraveling fast.
He wants Madden to help him open a nudist resort, and if Madden’s doing that, he won’t be working with me.
I’m trying not to panic over the thought of losing him, which is a typical, common best friend reaction. Nothing out of the ordinary.
And neither is the way my body has been reacting to him lately.
Everything is totally, completely normal between us.
While there’s still an us at all.
