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

JJ Carrington was born with a silver spoon in his mouth. He’s used to flying in business class and spending all his holidays at the nicest resorts in the world. But lately he’s tired of the same vacation over and over again, and the long days of drinking and looking for his next hookup are starting to blur together.
Cory Wynn has been working on a cruise ship for the past year. He’d never traveled before that, and now he’s seen more Caribbean destinations than he even knew existed. He hoped to meet someone to fall in love with while at sea, but so far all he does is work.
JJ follows some of the passengers onto the cruise ship after partying with them all day. Security realizes he’s not a passenger, and they waste no time taking him into custody and explaining to him he’ll be dropped off at the next stop. JJ is used to getting his way in everything in life, but this time there’s no one to bail him out. He may have finally met his match in the cruise worker who has to share his cabin with him and can’t wait until the next stop to get him off the ship. #Forced Proximity #Enemies to Lovers #Opposites Attract

Jordan Amid’s family has always been connected to the other side of the veil, but they follow a long tradition of secrecy, not telling outsiders all they can do. When an insistent spirit keeps showing up in the middle of the night, he knows he can’t keep it all from Bran any longer. Throwing his spirit from his body is only one of the skills he has, but he’s not sure its time to admit everything yet.
Bran Tanda is finally starting to accept and understand more of his necromancer abilities, but he’s still hesitant to embrace all the powers he knows he possesses, and even though he’s avoided the witches in his mother’s coven his ability is not only one they’re interested in.
Jordan’s family has kept their abilities secret for generations. Mostly to protect themselves from being used in ways that could bring more power to some at the expense of others. Especially when one of those secrets involves the ancient enemy that’s been behind most of the strange happenings around town. Jordan and Bran’s abilities will be tested, along with their relationship. More than their relationship will suffer if they fail.

After waiting several human lifetimes to find his mate, Lucas won’t sit back and lose Brennan. They’re all forced to seek out The Twelve, the ancient vampires who rule over all others.
When they reach the hidden fortress of the Consortium, they soon realize there’s more going on than they ever could have imagined.

Jason Thomas had always been obsessed with the ghost stories he'd watched on television from the time he was a kid. He'd always dreamed of visiting those haunted places, and playing amateur ghost hunters with his best friend Wade. As they grew older, Jason's fascination with ghosts grew as well, and he'd drag Wade along to different haunted houses or hotels, always hoping to see an actual ghost.
Wade Rivers loved spending time with Jason, even if it meant he'd have to endure another creepy, supposedly haunted location. Friends since they were kids, and always inseparable, Wade's feelings for Jason deepened from friendship into something more. Unfortunately, so did his fear of the places Jason wanted to explore.
The chance to spend a weekend alone in a famous haunted house was too much for Jason to resist, and almost too much for Wade to endure. He knew going to the deserted house was everything Jason had ever dreamed of, so Wade tried to put his fears aside. But when paranormal things start to happen, admitting to Jason how he feels suddenly isn't the scariest thing Wade will encounter. #paranormalromance #hauntedhouse #friendstolovers

Blue Lightning
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.

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.

Pints ‘n Pool
Foggy Basin Small Town Series
Coming 8/16/2024
https://books2read.com/TLPintsnPool
https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0CLKWB51K
Merle Cloverdale’s life was organized to the Nth degree. From the time he woke until the time he went to bed, promptly at midnight. He knew what his day would entail from start to finish.
Relationships would fail, his bar would not and with that attitude it was no wonder his grouchy ass remained unattached.
Kit, no last name, and not because he was famous, but because he was the son of free-spirited parents who felt surnames didn’t define you. Thankfully, they didn’t feel the same about a first. Growing up in a commune full of like-minded adults, he couldn’t wait to get out and explore the world.
Hitchhiking between towns, he never stayed in longer than a couple of months. This trip landed Kit in Foggy Basin. A quick glance around the local businesses, Kit knew odds were he’d find work and stay for a bit while he saved up enough to move on.
Pints ‘n Pool is an opposites attract, grumpy-sunshine tale of two men who were so wrong for each other that they couldn’t be more right. Hopefully, they pull their heads out of their asses before it’s too late.

Luka trades the short-term approval of his lover by helping with a home robbery for the gilded cage of Captain Clarke’s cruise ship. A year of servitude, a court-mandated reprieve from prison, all thanks to his influential father’s deal. Sadly, Luka’s immediate future includes scrubbing the decks and hauling suitcases, a stark contrast to the prison sentence he could have faced alongside his lover, Maleko. Haunted by the ghost of his lover’s absence and his own guilt, Luka grapples with newfound tenderness coming from the least expected person.
Captain Westly John Clarke, an experienced maritime hardliner, enforces the court’s contract with grim adherence. Beneath the surface, something shifts. Luka’s boyish charm chips away at the older man’s icy exterior. Still, he keeps Luka at arm’s length, unable to forget the bitter memories of the young man’s past. As the Captain battles his own awakening heart and hidden secrets, his compass spins out of control, adding to the chaos.
As the love story etches in the shadow of a criminal past and the unforgiving grip of duty leaves them both adrift in unchartered waters. Only time and the churning sea will tell if they admit what’s in their hearts.

In the heart of Foggy Basin, the Blue Star Diner serves more than just comfort food.
Twenty-four-year-old Andrew Star, the brooding co-manager of his family diner with a past, finds himself drawn to Officer Rafael Duarte—a man with secrets as dark as the night.
Their attraction is electric, but there’s a catch: both men are hiding their true selves. Andrew, scarred by youthful mistakes, yearns for Officer Duarte’s attention. But Rafael, bound by duty and fear, must keep his sexuality hidden to protect everything he holds dear.
As the tension simmers between them, the Star and Duarte families clash. Their feud, fueled by religious differences, threatens to tear apart the very fabric of their lives. Andrew’s cover as a ladies’ man is a fragile shield, while Rafael walks a tightrope between love and survival.
In a small town where acceptance comes at a high price, Andrew and Rafael must navigate forbidden desires, risking everything for a chance at love. But when secrets unravel and loyalties are tested, they discover that the true battle lies within themselves—a battle that could shatter their lives or set them free.
Blue Star Diner is a gripping tale of love, sacrifice, and the courage to embrace who you truly are, even when the odds are stacked against you.

A Daddy In Paradise
Kota Quinn
https://mybook.to/daddyinparadise
Being related to two famous rockstars has its pros and cons.
Noah loves his family but is tired of always living in their shadow. He’s worked hard to get where he’s at, first with his degree, and now with his new career if only he could apply the same effort to his love life. Noah just wants someone to see the real him, bonus points if that perfect someone is a daddy.
Dylan feels frustrated by the direction his life has taken. His job is stressful, his friends and family have all moved away, and if he’s being honest, he wants to settle down with someone.
When Dylan’s brother invites him on a cruise, the idea of a vacation in the tropics sounds like the perfect way to take a much-needed break to sort out his life. Only, the cruise is a little kinkier than he realized. And when Dylan sees Noah, his brother’s best friend being his Daddy in paradise is too tempting to resist.

Triadic by Charlie Godwyne
Can love unite them as the promise of peace gives them strength?
Monks Corbi and Marit have recently parted from their partner, Wren, who answered a call to serve lantern gods in war-torn Danubian lands. While they're still heartbroken and feeling adrift, they find a man on the verge of death in the forest.
They nurse Peter back to health, and when Peter awakens, the magic of the forest still on him, he too speaks of lantern gods that protect a warrior king.
As Peter embraces the two heartbroken men and promises to never let them go, powerful forces call them to a blood-soaked land with a feeble hope of peace.
Triadic is a 50,000-word MMM romance with mages and warriors in an Arthurian dark age of Central Europe in the 25th century. Although each book of the Danubian series features a different romance, due to a continuing plot the series is best read in order.

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. The pair have been together for almost a decade and friends for even longer. The bond between them is strong and unshakeable and yet they’ve always longed for a Daddy to come along and love them as fiercely as they love one another. As far as Duncan is concerned, that is the very definition of what he has to offer them.
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. Using sign language and a text to speech device, he helps ease the fears of those who visit the reptile and amphibian sanctuary he works at and educate them on the misunderstood animals.
Rusty: fierce yet vulnerable, trapped in a job he hates, he wars with himself about the things he wants versus expectations. He longs to spend his days creating the things he envisions, not doors and window frames, but with no clear path towards making that happen, he’s been spinning his wheels in a place that’s sent his mental health spiraling.
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.
