Summary

Brian Morehouse Hunter is a newly promoted professor of English with a particular fondness for the novels of Dorothy L. Sayers. In his spare time, Brian writes erotic gay romance novels. Knowing his university colleagues wouldn't understand, and would likely be shocked, Brian keeps his two lives strictly separate. That is, until he accidentally emails a draft chapter of his latest story to Ken Tremont, a fellow professor, rather than one of his beta readers. Brian likes Ken, finds the man attractive, but is pretty sure he's straight.
For the next few days, Brian awaits his fate, fearing exposure, ridicule, and possible expulsion. But Ken seems to be biding his time. Unable to stand it any longer, Brian decides to approach Ken.
Will Brian's worst fears be realized? Or could this accidental outing reap unexpected rewards?

    Harrison Cooke, Camden Barrera, and Tristan Newman will be attending a party together while pretending they're boyfriends, but in the process of getting to know one another, they develop real feelings. Normally, people who are in love will date and nurture their feelings before eventually finding their happily ever after. The end.
    That isn't the case for Harrison, Camden, and Tristan, though. Harrison is a control freak who gets jealous easily. Camden is an insecure attention-seeker. Tristan is a clingy man with a pretty face, and he's afraid of opening up to Harrison and Camden about his past relationships. Worst of all, the three may talk about a lot of things, but they don't communicate properly when it comes to the truly important issues.
    Will Harrison, Camden, and Tristan succeed in working things out before the problems and misunderstanding break them apart for good?

He's in Stone Acres to open a branch office of a national brokerage firm. He also hopes to track down a vintage photo of what might be his Native American ancestor. 
    After their paths cross, they become friends. Connected by their experiences as orphans raised by flawed fathers, Zeke and Vic wonder if their future could possibly hold love and family or if they are destined only to be lifelong friends.

    But life has it out for Brett, so he may have made his way out of his home-state, but not without getting stranded on the side of the road with a blown engine. A ruggedly handsome man in an expensive car saves Brett from heat exhaustion, but not from an entirely different flame. 
     
    The two men are drawn by magnetic force, and Brett accompanies Ryan to his destination. Why is an obviously wealthy man working the booth at a carnival attraction? And will Brett find the courage to come out with why he ran away from the stresses waiting for him at home? 
     
    Brett and Ryan are overcome by their own demons, and their possession threatens to keep either of them from finding their way home… and to each other.

He chooses to trust Castille, but after a night together, Castille fails to contact Harvey the following day. Or the one after that.
