Facing the Curse

Patrick Bryce Wright

Sinopse

As a Wiccan, Tito Russell is a firm believer in magic -- just not the fairytale, happily-ever-after kind. He and Matt have been dating for years, they've met each other's families, and everyone seems to agree Matt is "good enough." Despite ongoing problems with Matt's jealous and possessive tendencies, they move into an apartment together in a new town. Tito finds a job as a clerk at a used bookstore. Everything is working out.
Then the local Wiccan circle, which is hosting a workshop, accepts Tito's RSVP but not Matt's. Despite Matt's jealous whining, Tito refuses to give up his shot at joining a circle and making friends in their new town. When Tito shows up at the house where the circle is holding their meeting, he discovers his sexy upstairs neighbor from the apartment complex, Leo, is a member. As soon as they shake hands, magical sparks fly. Tito and Leo both feel it. During the barbeque after the workshop, Leo seeks out Tito, and they talk for hours. Leo is everything Matt isn't: outgoing, deep, and kind.
The problem is that Matt knows it, too, and for once his jealous paranoia that Tito is attracted to another guy is on target. Despite Tito's being loyal and refusing to become more than friends with Leo, Matt unleashes his full rage, ripping off the mask of the lovable nerd and becoming a rageful abuser.
As soon as Leo sees the bruises, he convinces Tito to take a stand and dump Matt. But with Matt's behavior getting progressively more unhinged, where will it end? With Leo and Tito getting together, or with both of them dead at Matt's hands?

The Missing Heart

Nathan Gibson

When Charlie Rideout's best friend David vanishes from Denver's vibrant drag bar scene, he turns to the last person who should take the case. Max Evans is a jaded private detective still haunted by the murder of his husband at the hands of a serial killer he helped put behind bars.
But the deeper Max and Charlie dig into David's disappearance, the more the shadows of Max's past close in around them. A taunting business card smeared with blood. A killer who was supposed to be locked away. And the terrifying realization that David's abduction was never about David at all. It was a trap designed to lure Max back into a nightmare he never escaped.
As the clock ticks down on David's life, Max and Charlie are drawn together by more than the case. Charlie's relentless optimism cracks open something in Max he thought died with his husband, while Max's fierce protectiveness awakens feelings Charlie never expected to find in the middle of a crisis. But forces beyond them despise nothing more than the happiness of others, and falling for each other might be the most dangerous thing they can do.
