https://books2read.com/SHearts
Two Guardians meant for war are now given the permission to love. After the last battle had been fought, and any threats have been eliminated, the watcher decrees that the guardians should go forth and live as they would choose. A life of freedom and happiness. But without a mate some of them have no idea how to accomplish this.
Aasim helped Jashik through the mending of his broken wing and his feelings for the injured gargoyle grew during the time they spent together. Aasim does not trust easily, but he has complete faith in Jashik, so when they’re told they should go and enjoy any happiness they can, he’s eager, but also a little hesitant as they decide to begin a life together. Neither of them has a mate, so the prospect of not being alone for eternity is very appealing to him, but still, he’s afraid to open his heart to the other gargoyle.
They were promised a lifetime of peace, but the arrival of an old forgotten foe brings all the gargoyles together to fight against a force that is strong enough to destroy everything they’ve worked so hard for. Love or duty, now they’ll all need to choose.

Isaac Grant has lived in Foggy Basin for all of his twenty-three years. Everything was perfect until his favorite friend with benefits, Jack, met the love of his life. Sure, he was happy for Jack, but he missed him and wanted someone of his own to keep him warm at night, or to get into trouble with.
Tig Sawyer left Foggy Basin after only living there for a little over a year. He graduated from high school and moved onto an out-of-state college and, for the most part, never looked back. But memories of that slower pace always came back to him when he was neck deep in work, and his personal life.
Isaac was never looking for a relationship and was more than
happy to live his life loose and free, but since meeting Tig, he wonders why he never wanted someone of his own. He also questions why someone like Tig, who has his life together and always seems happy as hell, would want to take him on. But there’s something in the way Tig looks at him that says he’s more than willing.
Welcome to Foggy Basin Season Two. Just passing through? No problem. Here to stay, well, better find your place. Sit back, relax and get to know the townsfolk. They love hard and play even harder. Each book is a standalone but why not stay and get to know us and read them all.

Camping 101
BL Maxwell
Covers by: Covers By Jo
Gavin Johnson has been camping as long as he can remember. His family spent a few weeks every summer either on the coast of California or in the forests of the Sierra enjoying the simple life and getting closer to nature. Which is why when he had the opportunity to buy Camp Acorn where he’d worked in his twenties, he jumped at the chance.
Wyatt Jackson loves his life. He has everything he wants or needs at home. But he starts to crave change. He wants a new start, and new experiences. When he sees an ad for a camp for adults nestled deep in the Sierra, he registers for a two-week stay before he has the chance to change his own mind, and quickly regrets that decision.
Staying in a cabin for two weeks is supposed to be an adventure, but Wyatt soon realizes it’s far from luxurious, and there’s also poison oak, bugs, and rattlesnakes to watch out for. Gavin is always there to lend a hand and really wants them all to have fun. Afterall, that’s what Camp Acorn is all about, teaching adults how to have fun and survive in the wilderness, even if they complain the whole time.

Mommy Calls Me Princess
Mommies and Littles Series
Coming 6/20/2025
https://books2read.com/MommyCallsMePrincess
Darcy’s mother never meant to ignore her but to keep a roof over their heads and food in their bellies life required she work two jobs.
What Darcy needed more than that was love. Someone to hold her, kiss her scrapes and bruises and enjoy playtime together. For the most part, her best friend Vale and his mother took care of that when they more or less adopted her in grade school. But Darcy longed for a deeper connection. One with a Mommy she could trust to take care of everything yet love her in the ways she most desired.
Miss Vivienne, headmistress of Blush, prided herself on running a tight ship, so to speak. Her club basked in the glowing reviews it received, and patrons came from far and wide to visit. Over the years she’d enjoyed the company of pets and those who desired domination and submission. She was, after all a well-known Domme in the community. What she never expected was to become completely enthralled with a random little spending the evening as a guest at her club. Littles, she adored but never indulged in.
And she was a guest her best friend sponsored for the evening.
Can a lost little and a stern Domme find what they need in each other or will this equate to nothing more than a one-time play date?

Disillusioned with his career in law enforcement and having given up on finding his one and only, J.

The Road To #Rocktoberfest
Narrated by Tom North
Strung Tight
https://www.books2read.com/ALStrungTight
What’s better than having your rock idol, Dagger Drummond be the mentor for your band? Having your band selected as one of the performing acts at the iconic music festival, Rocktoberfest.
My band was about to step onto our first professional stage. We’d more than earned our spot in the lineup. We had the talent and Dagger groomed our stage swagger. All that was left was to wow the socks off of the audience.
It should be easy, except I had major anxiety issues and it’s frowned upon when lead singers collapse on stage from panic attacks. Another detail adding to my anxiety level, I recently fell in love with a man. Imagine that, a straight guy falling for a dude. It’s the stuff stories are made of – and yet it’s my life.
Rocktoberfest was supposed to be fun but our trip turned sour when my guy went AWOL. Now my concentration is shot and my is heart heavy thinking his absence might have more to do with him not wanting to be with me than missing the bus. One way or another, I had to give the performance of my career – regardless of what was going on inside my head or my heart.
Strung Tight is the 1st book in the multi-author Road To Rocktoberfest series. Each book can be read as a standalone, but why not stay and enjoy the whole show? If you like scorching tales of hot rock stars and the men who love them, then you’ll adore the untamed musicians of Rocktoberfest!

😈MMM Romance on the high seas with a kink cruise romance
🔥 Age Gap
🌈 Daddy-Little-Pet
Is five months into a relationship too soon to take his boy and his pup on a kink cruise to the Caribbean?
Maybe.
Only Duncan couldn’t resist proposing it to them and letting them decide.
Ember: lively, little, and completely non-verbal, he was born without the ability to speak, but that doesn’t mean he holds back when he’s passionate about something.
Rusty: fierce yet vulnerable, trapped in a job he hates, he wars with himself about the things he wants versus expectations.
The cruise seems the perfect way to spend his hard-earned vacation days, and if he should happen to find some of the answers he’s been searching for on the high seas with his Daddy and their boy, then that’s the shimmer on the lollipop.
The big, purple, phallic shaped lollipop they intend to use to enhance their fun.

Coming home was supposed to be the end of something, until Mikal barreled into his life….and he wasn’t alone.
For Devin McKay, music has been his lover, his drug, and his best friend for as long as he can remember, but there was always something he denied himself while he pursued it. Now that his band has broken up and he’s returned to his hometown of Stoney Brook, he’s settled into a new, somewhat drunken routine, while he tries to get accustomed to this new phase in his life. The last thing he expected was an old friend to send a troubled young musician his way.
Mikal needs help, or rather, his best friend, Moon, needs help getting over the blinding bouts of stage fright that have been plaguing him for the last year. He’ll do anything to get to the root of Moon’s issues, even follow along with the unorthodox methods Devin prescribes for them. After all, Devin was a success in the industry, while Mikal and Moon have been struggling to get a foot in the door.
They aren’t the only ones struggling. Moon’s longtime friend with benefits, Derrick, spends most days rudderless and pretending to be okay. There are things he needs that Moon tries desperately to give him, but Moon has needs too. All their pieces have jagged edges, but with a little twisting and turning, and a lot of songs, they might discover a way they can all fit.

⋰⋱⋰⋱⋰⋱⋰⋱⋰⋱
Archie Star’s life had always been marked by loneliness. After losing his mother at eleven, he was left with a father who never quite knew what to do with him. Even after earning a literature degree, Archie felt like a ghost in his own home, unseen and unneeded. When his cousin Andrew offered him a job at the Blue Star Diner in Foggy Basin, he took it as a sign. With nothing but a duffel bag and a restless heart, he climbed onto his motorcycle and rode toward a fresh start, hoping to find a place where he could finally breathe.
Andrew secured him a room in the home of Brogan Finnegan, a charming Irish high school teacher with a storyteller’s soul. Brogan had traveled the world before settling in Foggy Basin, drawn to teaching after years of volunteering in communities abroad. His warm home and steady presence offered Archie something he hadn’t felt in years—comfort, safety, and maybe even belonging.
But it was Brogan himself who truly captivated Archie.
What started as quiet conversations over late-night cups of tea and shared glances across rooms soon became something deeper. Two men, both searching for connection in their own way, found solace in each other. In the gentle rhythm of daily life, in the laughter that softened the edges of their pasts, they pieced themselves together. And in doing so, they learned that home isn’t always a place—it’s a person.
Finding Archie is a story of love, healing, and the unexpected places where we find home.
⋰⋱⋰⋱⋰⋱⋰⋱⋰⋱
Welcome to Foggy Basin, Season Two. Just passing through? No problem. But if you’re here to stay, you’d better find your place. The townsfolk love hard and play even harder. Each book is a standalone, but why not stay a while and read them all?

Age Gap Opposites Attract Pride Camp MM Romance Tents Risk taking Kindle Unlimited
Clayton Robinson figured his cozy little pub in Lodi, California, was the perfect spot to settle. He loved the regulars, the sound of glasses clinking, the easygoing rhythm of it all—but no matter how comfortable he got, there was always that itch for the open road. Relationships? Too risky. They’d only tie him down. But then he walked into the Rainbow Coffee Shop in Stockton and saw Sawyer—specifically, the handmade rainbow bracelet on his wrist.
Sawyer Gallagher wasn’t the type to put himself out there. Quiet, a little guarded, he wore his heart on his wrist—literally. That bracelet? It was his quiet hope for something more, a tiny beacon for connection. He wasn’t great at letting people in, but when Clayton noticed that little detail, everything shifted.
What was supposed to be a casual, “Hey, you should stop by my pub sometime,” turned into a spur-of-the-moment road trip to Pride Camp. Except fate had other plans, and suddenly, they were on a detour neither saw coming. As the miles rolled by, walls came down. Secrets slipped out. Dreams got shared. And that spark between them? Yeah, it turned into something way bigger than either of them expected.
Welcome to Pride Camp where diversity and inclusion is our motto. We’ve got daddies, mommies, littles, pets and families of all kinds. So, unroll your sleeping bag, make a couple smores, and enjoy the show!
