The Space Between Us, by Flynn Woods

Lost in a small town, I never expected to find comfort in the arms of another man.

Being dumped by my girlfriend and moving to a small rural town by myself was not how I imagined my life after graduation. Not only was the three-bedroom apartment too big for me, but it was also a mess—moving boxes and unfinished furniture everywhere.

My family and friends lived hundreds of miles away, and my two left hands didn’t know how to do anything. To make matters worse, a guy my age banged on my door and yelled at me for parking my car in his space. Couldn’t he give me a break? It was an honest mistake. He screamed that he wasn’t going to do “that” anymore. What the heck was he talking about?

Once that misunderstanding was out of the way, he calmed down, apologized, and even offered to help me with the furniture. Craving some company and help, I promised him a drink in return, and soon, we were laughing about everything. He turned out to be a decent guy—technically proficient, enjoyed a good baseball game as much as the next guy, already divorced at twenty-six—and he had some encouraging words for my situation. I finally felt like I could relax a bit.

Until he asked me if he could help me relax a little more…

The Space Between Us is a new adult, small-town, erotic romance that follows neighbors Ethan and Levi. Expect two bisexual guys falling in love with a man for the first time. What starts as a casual tryst turns into the greatest love either has ever known. The story contains mature themes, language, and explicit sexual scenes. This standalone novella is part of The Secret Collection.

I’ve never had a wingman before, so it’s not my fault I fell in love with him…right?

Levi Huxley

He’s straight and my age, and shouldn’t be my type. So, what’s the meaning of the damn butterflies in my stomach whenever he’s around?

Andy Morris
Working in a small B&B in some middle of nowhere town isn’t the most glamorous, but I’ll be in charge of my very own kitchen.

Talk about a wingman fail.

The Holiday Fail is a wingman-to-lovers MM romance between a B&B owner and his new chef.

Dix, by Emmy Sanders

Narrated by Nick J. Russo

Do you believe in hate at first sight?

Dixon
If I had to choose one word to describe my new cocky costar, it’d be exasperating. Nikolas Adamos may look like a Greek god—and he certainly struts around like he knows it—but unlike everyone else, I refuse to fall prey to his charms.

Unfortunately for me, Niko and I get paired to do a series of lovey-dovey boyfriend videos for our employers at Elite 8 Studios. And when you film the sort of scenes we do, up close and personal takes on a whole new meaning.

I may have to play nice while the cameras are rolling, but off set, it’s another matter entirely. So what if our chemistry is off the charts? That doesn’t mean a thing. Nor does the tender look in Niko’s eye when we’re together under the lights.

Because I know the truth. Nikolas Adamos revels in riling me up. And even though my pesky friends think I need fireworks after a string of fizzled relationships, I have no doubt if I allow myself to get any closer to my new fake boyfriend, I’ll only end up burned.

Dix is a grumpy/sunshine, one-sided enemies-to-lovers romance with hate at first sight, forced proximity for two costars who work between the sheets, banter and snark galore, plenty of industrial-sized lube, and one very HEA. It’s book 1 in the Elite 8 Studios series, featuring characters that were introduced in Virgin Hearts (Plum Valley Cowboys Book 2), but can be read as a standalone.

Honey Sunshine, by Gen Blackwell

“How did the two of you meet?”

The age-old question that turns couples into giggling messes, blushing like they’ve just been shot in the heart with Cupid’s arrow as they recount their cute meeting.

My meet-cute with Harvey Cooper?

Well, it wasn’t exactly run-of-the-mill, and truthfully . . .

It was a damn mess.

I was supposed to be meeting a potential investor for my small advertising firm. However, life decided today would be a great day to test my willpower when—out of all the restaurants in the city—my ex-boyfriend slash ex-business partner who’d stolen all our top clients, also chose to dine in the same one where I was meeting my potential investor.

So there I am in the restaurant’s bathroom, threatening to murder my best friend if he doesn’t come to my rescue. And then, just when I’m about to punch my ex—because it feels like the better option—the love of my life waltzes in to save the day.

Did I say the love of my life?

What I mean is the investor I’m supposed to meet, who’d heard my desperate SOS in the bathroom. Just when I’m thinking of giving myself a potential concussion to forget this whole thing, he lays out a plan that might benefit both of us:

Why don’t I be the Juliet to his Romeo at his upcoming family dinner?

Well . . .

Romeo to his Romeo, except we don’t try to kill ourselves no matter how embarrassing this is.

It sounds foolproof, and frankly, it seems perfect, so we make a pact.

What I don’t expect?

Accidentally falling for my fake boyfriend like any other cliché novel.

Meet Zach and Harvey in Honey Sunshine, a lighthearted MM romance novella filled with passion, humor, and insane chemistry. This is the first book in the Bower Brothers series and can be read as a standalone.

The Money Shot, by Ian O. Lewis

When life falls apart, you get creative.

New York was supposed to be my fresh start—a dream job, a swanky apartment, and two best friends to share it all with. Instead? One roommate got arrested, my job disappeared, and I’ve been fake-commuting to a job I don’t have just to keep Jack, my best friend and human lie detector, from finding out I’m a total disaster.

But bills don’t wait for paychecks, and desperation makes you do wild things—like signing up for an explicit adult website and baring it all for strangers online. Just me, a camera, and enough cash rolling in to survive another month. No one was supposed to know.

Except Jack found out.

I braced for a lecture—or worse, for him to leave. But then he did something I never saw coming. He joined me. For the money, of course. Strictly professional.

Now we’re filming together, making scenes that are supposed to be an act… except it doesn’t feel like one. Not when he looks at me like that. Not when I can’t stop imagining what might happen if we turned off the camera and let it all be real.

This wasn’t part of the plan. Falling for your best friend never is. But maybe, just maybe, we’re writing a script better than anything we could’ve faked.
