With Feathers

Rafe Jadison

Summary

With the death of everyone that's ever really loved him, Ethan has gotten a little too comfortable at his local cemetery. So comfortable in fact, that while grave gazing one hot Florida evening, he doesn't even notice the stranger watching him, or the falling tree that just might send him to his own grave.

De Leon isn't new to the cemetery. He's been burying family members there for centuries. Although he can't help himself from saving the endearing man he's had his eyes on for the last decade, he can certainly live without the questions that come after the rescue.

As Ethan wonders if he can ever move into the future, can De Leon help him find the answers as they navigate through the past?

Straddling the Line

A.F. Henley

Scott Riley has lived his whole life in the Town of Sunridge but spent most of his childhood certain that the first thing he would do when he got old enough was leave. That was until Sid's Tavern came up for sale, though. With a little bit of money and a lot of hard work, he is confident that he will be able to refresh the bar and add a little bit of life to the town. He also knows that's going to be hard to do all alone. So, when a slightly disheveled but desperate and willing to work young man shows up asking for a job, it seems as though fate has intervened.


Lee Warner brings a dark past with him, but he's sober, hungry, and willing to try just about anything if it will bring him a sense of purpose and renew his energy. Walking into that tavern was meant to be nothing more than a chance for opportunity, but that was before Lee got a good look at Scott. With hair the color of a sunset and a nervous energy to match it, Scott is revitalizing Lee in ways Lee never expected.


That seems to be contagious energy, however, and as Scott is as straight as they come, he can't understand why Lee is awakening feelings in him. Or how to turn those feelings off.

The Acolyte - A Dark Slow-burn...

Anna T. Pope

"You can't see it, can you? How beautiful you are."
Adriel has spent his entire life making himself smaller; shrinking to fit other people's expectations, apologizing for the space he takes up, and burying the parts of himself that never seemed to be enough. When he lands a position as editorial assistant at Grayson House, his only plan is to stay invisible.
Landen Waters makes that impossible.
Landen is everything Adriel isn't; composed, commanding, effortlessly sharp. As Editor-in-Chief of Grayson House, he runs a tight ship. But behind the tailored suits and unreadable expression is a man running on empty, going through the motions, searching for something elusive.
He finds it in the nervous junior editor who can't stop apologizing, can't stop blushing, and sees straight through manuscripts the way no one else on his floor can.
Their attraction is immediate. Undeniable. Dangerous.
Because Landen doesn't just want Adriel in his bed; he wants him on his knees. And Adriel, who has never trusted anyone with that much of himself, discovers that the thing he's most terrified of, being completely seen, is the only thing that has ever made him feel whole.
But when a ghost from Adriel's past threatens to unravel everything, the fragile trust between them is shattered. And both men are left facing the same devastating question:
Is love enough when you've spent your whole life believing you don't deserve it?
A dark, slow-burn, BDSM-charged MM romance — The Acolyte is the second book in The Crimson Knot series.

Paulie and the Wedding Bell Grouch

J.D. Walker

Paulie Hajek has loved weddings since childhood, so naturally it makes sense that his current job is in the wedding planning business. Unfortunately, that also means he works with Van Tremaine, his boss's brother and a former bed partner who refused to commit to something permanent, like marriage. Paulie has been heartbroken for a year, but he's not giving up on happily-ever-after, though the gloss has dimmed somewhat.
Van has a lot to prove to Paulie, whose love-tinted view of the world once struck fear in his forty-five-year-old heart and made him act like a fool. It doesn't help that Paulie catches him with an intern in a compromising position, either. 
To prove he's changed, Van resorts to a bit of trickery which, in the end, may or may not give Paulie what he's always wanted, if he can forgive Van for being an idiot. Will he say yes?
