Living With The Dead: https://books2read.com/LWTDSB2
Seeing spirits is one thing, but feeling the pain of their death is an experience best left alone. Restless spirits, a ghost dog, and two men connected to the spirit world. What could go wrong? Bran Tanda works at the hospital morgue despite the fact he can see and hear all the spirits that tend to congregate there. He wants to help them, even if they terrify him with their aggressive tactics to get him to acknowledge their existence.
Jordan Amid is Bran’s assistant. He’s reluctant to interact too much with the dead since he can feel all the pain from their death and the confusion they’re left with. But he’s drawn to work there with Bran, and his ghost dog Buddy. Bran and Jordan are thrown into a world where things are changing, and without their help everyone will suffer the dead. Stronger together than separately, they’ll both need to face their fears and find the strength they’ll need to fight the evil forces that threaten them and all of humanity. #MMParanromal #UrbanFantasy #Necromancer #PsychicEmpath #GayFiction

Easy Rian has been lead singer for Blinding Light since the band was formed. Through the years many things have changed. Not all of them good. When the lead guitarist leaves mid-tour, the rest of the band is left waiting to see if they’ll continue on to Rocktoberfest, or if this is where their tour ends.
Liam Tarrant has been playing guitar for as long as he can remember. When he gets the chance to audition for Blinding Light, he jumps at the chance. Meeting the band is surreal, especially the lead singer, Easy. Liam has always had a crush on Easy, but he never thought he’d get the chance to meet him, let alone spend time alone with him.
Easy is drawn to Liam, no matter how much he wants to deny it. When the two are thrown together over practice and planning the upcoming tour, attraction grows between the two of them that neither can deny. But falling in love on tour could be what finally ends Blinding Light, and both of them will need to choose what’s more important to them. Love or music, can they have it all? #mmromancereads#mmromancebook#mmromance#mmromancenovels#rockstarromance#lgbt#mmromancenovel#rockstarromancereads#mmromancereader#mmromanceauthor#bookstagram#gayromancenovels#gayromancereviews#mmromancebooks#oppositesattract#MMRomanceAuthor#workplace#friendstolovers#indiewritersofinstagram#readqueerallyear#readingrainbow#99c#99cSale#99cents#99cbooks#99centbooks#99centsonly

Link is happy, but there’s one more thing he wants to do, and he’ll need help from all their friends and family to pull it off. He asks Andy to marry him one more time but this time he’s got a date, and it’s only a couple of days away. It’s a lot to ask, but if they all pitch in, it’ll be as special as Link and Andy deserve.

Caleb Mies takes extra care to help the man he meets at the airport who is also staying at the remote hotel his family owns. Their family has a yearly tradition that’s not for the weak of heart, or those who choose to do evil deeds.

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.

BURIED SECRETS BOOK 1
When Alek Belanov loses his family at four years old, his Russian mobster uncle raises him. Now, at twenty-two, Alek wants nothing more than to find out who murdered his family and why. After Alek gets out of prison for a crime he didn’t commit, his uncle sends him away to the Gay Protection Society, claiming Alek's life was in danger.
Sexy Rafe Escobar is the head of the secret Gay Protection Society, and he chooses Alek as his personal charge. Rafe warns Alek that if he breaks security rules, he will discipline him. Alek has some slip-ups here and there, but he adores his protector and wishes to please him in every way. Alek quickly finds his place among the other men who seek shelter and those who guard them.
What was supposed to be a haven becomes a group on the run as security breaches and threats force them to move from town to town. Is Rafe and Alek’s relationship strong enough to withstand the secrets and deceptions of people trying to destroy them?
While Buried Secrets is a stand-alone book with no cliffhanger, the story will continue with Emilio and Kaden.

He wants the company. He craves the man. And he won’t stop until he owns them both.
Caleb Springborg is used to getting what he wants. At twenty-nine, the tech billionaire is ruthless in business and relentless in his pursuit of pleasure—especially when it comes to powerful older men who crave discipline behind closed doors. And now, he’s set his sights on Inigo Palicios, the brilliant but grieving CTO of Castle Technologies, the one man who’s eluded him for years. Caleb doesn’t just want Inigo’s company; he wants him on his knees, begging for more.
Inigo Palicios has spent the last five years guarding his late husband’s legacy, determined to keep Castle Technologies out of Caleb’s greedy clutches. But when a Halloween masquerade turns into a night of anonymous submission, Inigo finds himself auctioned off to a mysterious, dominant stranger who knows exactly how to push his boundaries. The masked man leaves Inigo shaken, craving, and completely unaware that his secret daddy for the night is none other than his greatest rival—Caleb.
As business tensions heat up, Caleb is determined to break down Inigo’s walls, using every tool at his disposal to win both the company and the man. From power plays in boardrooms to intimate scenes of domestic discipline, their battle of wills turns into a seductive game of dominance and submission, where lines blur and passions ignite.
With Christmas approaching, Caleb offers Inigo a devil’s deal: submit and sell, or walk away forever. Torn between his past and the undeniable pull of Caleb’s control, Inigo must decide whether to surrender everything he’s fought for or embrace a new kind of power—the power of letting go.
“Caleb” is a tantalizing journey of forbidden desire, corporate intrigue, and the seductive pull of submission. With steamy BDSM scenes, age-play dynamics, and a festive twist, Caleb and Inigo’s story will leave you breathless, begging for more and believing that sometimes surrendering is the sweetest victory of all.
A Daddy for Christmas 2 is a multi-author series. Holiday tales of lost boys in need of Daddy’s love and in some cases, a firm hand. Naughty or nice, it’s all in Santa’s hands now. So why not dive in and read each standalone and enjoy the holidays alongside our boys.
