Nuts and Bolts Part of Foggy Basin Small town MM Romance
https://books2read.com/NutsANDBolts
Jack Hulbert has worked at the hardware store Nuts and Bolts since he was sixteen. He had big dreams of leaving town and traveling, but five years later, not much has changed, and he worries he’ll end up living the rest of his life in the small town he was born in.
Hudson Carter has been working in Sacramento for the past ten years, managing a big box store. He left Foggy Basin for college in the city and he never once looked back. His parents have owned the hardware store in town for two generations, and he’d hoped to avoid the same fate, but when his father tells him his plans to either sell the store or close it, he has a change of heart.
Hudson has been single for years, and a few bad breakups have left him jaded about finding the perfect partner. But he’s not prepared for the cute, and much younger man who knows far more than he does about running the hardware store and isn’t afraid to tell him. It’s time for this city boy to embrace his country roots and find out what really matters in his life, and a certain country boy is more than willing to help. #age gap, #city/country, #workplace romance, #small town romance.

AND here's an excerpt!
To say this had turned into a strange day would be the understatement of the year. I’d come back to town fully intending on talking Dad out of selling, and the more time I spent with his employee, Jack, the stronger that feeling grew. As I swept the store, I thought about all the times I’d done this when I was a kid, and later when I was a teenager. There were little nooks and crannies I remembered so well it was both amazing and strange. I thought I’d left this place behind, but the emotions that filled me were nostalgia, and love. I had so many memories of us all working together here on some weekends, and of my parents trying to make it fun.
My mind wandered back to the many different games Dad made up to keep me busy. From making a game out of all the hardware items I could find that had been dropped on the floor to giving me a quarter for every spiderweb I knocked down. I hadn’t thought of any of that for years. “This place is full of ghosts,” I mumbled.
“What was that?” Jack asked me from where he stood at the tool section putting everything back in order.
“I was just thinking how I still remember every floorboard in this place after all that time away.”
“You must have swept the floor a lot,” Jack said, and this time when he looked at me his expression was a lot less guarded and a little more friendly.
“Just a few times.” I laughed again at the memories. “Pretty sure this is the same broom too.”
“Oh my god, I’ve been telling Jonas for a couple of years we need a new one. He says—”
“If it ain’t broke don’t fix it,” I finished for him making him laugh. “He’s definitely not one to waste a perfectly good broom.”
“That’s the truth. Oh, and when you asked about the rafters earlier, we haven’t cleaned them the whole time I’ve worked here. I just try not to look up,” he said and shivered a little.
I took a chance and looked up. “I’m pretty sure those are the same spiderwebs that were there when I was in high school,” I said and cringed.
“They’re practically antiques,” Jack said with a perfectly straight face.
“You’re right, they are—kid,” I said and kept my head down while I got back to sweeping. A wad of paper towels hit me on the back of the head, but I just swept it up and added it to the pile of debris I’d collected, making him laugh. For a while neither of us spoke as we both stayed busy and a customer or two stopped by for different odds and ends. Some I knew but most I didn’t recognize.
Finally at a little before six Jack walked over to where I was busy using the broom trying to knock down some especially aggressive webs. “I think some of these spiders have been here for generations. I can’t believe this is still this bad,” I said and tried not to freak out about what was falling down on me from above.
“Don’t worry too much about it, just sweep up the mess you made over your clean floor, and we can go get something to eat,” Jack said as he closed out the drawer before walking back to the office. Dad had always kept a safe in the back and I was again hit with the familiarity of being here. I did as he suggested, after brushing off more spider webs and dust from my shirt and hair.
“This shirt was the dumbest choice,” I grumbled to myself. The country wasn’t as predictable as the city, you never knew where you’d run into something that would ruin a perfectly good shirt, or a nice pair of boots. Really any item of clothing was ready for ruin on a muddy road, or while visiting a relative that lived out of town in the country. It had been so long that I’d even had to consider any of that, my mind just didn’t register it anymore.
“I like that shirt,” Jack said as he walked by me on the way to the counter.

Cole Ryan is bored. He’s lived in the same small town his whole life and has the same job. Nothing changes there and every morning when he goes for a run, those thoughts echo on repeat through his mind. Until today, on this day, something big happens and if he survives it, his life won’t be the same. Maybe boring old Hickory Crossing wasn’t so bad after all.
Driving in the rain, on his way to a delivery, Bobby Sanders is focused on the road, when a flash of blue light in the distance catches his eye. He witnesses a bolt of lightning strike a man running on the road ahead of him. He never suspected that bolt of lightning could change both their lives, not just the poor guy who was blown out of his shoes right in front of him.
When the persistent sound of whispering won’t go away, Cole questions his sanity. But maybe he’s not the only one experiencing strange things.

It all started with a discovery. A cave beneath a waterfall that held a crystal. Two boys—best friends—embark on a journey they’re told will help all mankind. As the years go by, their friendship turns to love, and their adventure turns into a battle.
Drew Langly is the keeper of the crystal. With his contact, the crystal allows them to jump to different timestreams and help, if they can, to further that society or fix anything that improves their lives. When he’s ripped from the timestream, it’s the beginning of what will change everything they’ve come to know about how the different timestreams function.

Blinding Light: https://mybook.to/BlindingLight
Rory Smith has been playing bass for Blinding Light since the beginning. Sure, he left a few times temporarily, but he’s always gone back to the only life he’s really known. It was all fun and games in his twenties, but lately he wonders if there’s something more out there besides traveling show to show.
Kai Marshall has always been a huge fan of Blinding Light, but the real reason he goes to every show he can sneak into is to get a glimpse of their hot bass player. Everyone else worshiped the lead singer Easy Rian. When they found out, he was out and proud, and in a relationship with the new guitar player, many hearts were broken. But not his. His heart only beats for Rory, the white-blonde haired rock god that he can’t get out of his head.
Rory’s played the rockstar game for many years. Not one time in all those years has he met anyone who made him feel the way the cute guy off to the side with the haunting blue eyes does. He’s always kept his heart of lockdown, but maybe it’s time for a jailbreak. His dreams have faded, but they’re not completely gone. #agegap #oppositesattract #friendstolovers #rockstarromance

Remember When
BL Maxwell
A night to remember, a confession, and a lifetime of love in this small town, friends to lovers Christmas romance.
Andrew's life in Sacramento has turned from being everything he dreamed of growing up, to a lonely place where finding someone special to share his life with is impossible. When the first person he meets on returning home for Thanksgiving is his childhood friend Link, it’s a reminder of happier times when his whole future lay in front of him. Agreeing to a drink before heading to his parent’s place is a way to reconnect, and a great way to start the holiday.
Link Stanton never considered leaving the small farming town he grew up in, but he misses Andy more than he’ll ever admit. Secretly lusting after a friend is bad enough but being in love with him is so much worse. One drink with friends seems harmless enough, after all, catching up on old times can’t be a bad thing, until beers turn to shots, and Link reveals how he really feels.
Everything could change, but if Andrew doesn’t remember Link’s heartfelt confession, they could carry on as friends. But, if he does remember, this could be either the worst, or the best, Christmas of all. #smalltownromance #Holidayromance #mmromance #Christmas #friendstolovers
