Absolutely Pucked, by E.M. Lindsey

Sometimes the one-night stand you meet at a bar on the outskirts of town shows up at your house a month later to reveal he’s the one man you were never supposed to touch.

My friends are all I have, so I’d rather lose my other leg than do anything to hurt them. But how was I supposed to know the bearded stranger at the bar that night was the one person who hurt my best friend beyond repair?

I never would have known who Killian was if he hadn’t turned up at my door a month after our little tryst. But here he is, on my doorstep, with nowhere to go and a sob story that wounds my already bleeding heart.

I should turn him away, but I can’t. Killian makes me feel things I’ve never felt before.

And he’s the first man to ever look at me like I’m a whole person and not just shattered pieces from a bad accident and a broken family.

How can I give that up?

My only job should be to protect my best friend, but the heart wants what the heart wants. All I can hope is that in the end, when truths are finally revealed, I won’t have lost the only people who love me for exactly who I am.

Absolutely Pucked is a forbidden relationship, found family, MM hockey romance in the Punk as Puck series, which is best enjoyed in order. It features a para-hockey player with a love of classic horror films, a chip on his shoulder, and a determination to be better than his family ever thought he would be, an estranged man with a past full of lies, sins to confess, who never believed he was worthy of a good man, a scraggly alley cat with high end taste, secret dates, making out in store rooms, playing amateur private eyes, the merits of forgiving not only others but yourself, and a steamy-sweet happily ever after.

Gay for Pray, by F.A. Ray

My divine destiny to join the priesthood isn’t supposed to include a college fling with an openly gay classmate.

Theodore

My father decided my fate before I was born. The son of a deacon, divine destiny pointed me toward the priesthood. That’s the whole reason I enrolled at A.S.S. University.

But my father didn’t know about the desires I’ve been fighting for my whole life when he made his holy plan for me. And he doesn’t know that my openly gay classmate is everything I’ve ever wanted.

Jude embodies all the things I hold sacred: He’s smart, handsome and shockingly kind. I retreat to the university’s liturgical choir, the one place Jude is sure to avoid…until he joins as well, placing my destiny and my secret on a collision course.

Jude

I’ve never met anyone less cool than Theodore Walsh. No wonder the guy plans to become a priest. He sneers at my very existence, as though merely by being myself I might get some of the gay on him.

I joined the liturgical choir to meet guys. If there’s going to be queer people anywhere in this Catholic university, it’ll be in the closest thing A.S.S. Uni. has to a theater club. But Theodore’s presence was not part of the plan.

When we get assigned to a group project together, things turn even more dire. On a whim, I invite him to a frat party, never imagining he’ll say yes.

What goes down at that party is a disaster of Biblical proportions.

Gay for Pray is an enemies-to-lovers, opposites attract, first time MM college romance set at a fictional Catholic university.

Brandon might not want to be a necromancer, but if he doesn’t own it and learn to use his power, the guy he more-than-likes might die.

Last Year—yes, it was so bad it needs to be capitalized—continues to haunt Brandon. A fresh start in a new town should have been the solution, but the memories follow him everywhere, in the form of undead roadkill he can’t seem to stop conjuring.

Who even knew paranormal veterinarians were a thing?

Instructed by the Summoner, by Rowan Amaris and Theo Behr

Is there anything more pathetic than an incubus who’s barely been kissed?

Xak has an encyclopedic knowledge of desire. Too bad it’s entirely theoretical. Sure, he’s an A student at the incubus academy, but he’s too anxious to face the practical, hands-on exam.

Just as he’s on the verge of dropping out, an accidental summoning lands him in the lap of a lonely, soft-hearted human with a seductive magic of his own. Xak’s used to being humiliated by his teachers and mocked by his classmates. But Kai calls him perfect and answers his fears with firm reassurance.

Under Kai’s gentle instruction, Xak has the chance to learn the real meaning of pleasure. All he has to do is listen, obey, and be Kai’s very good boy.

Instructed by the Summoner is a bite-sized sweet-and-spicy romp with an inexperienced, studious incubus and the confused (but pleased) mage who accidentally summons him. It includes a personalized lesson plan, hands-on teaching through a first-time experience, and a good boy minding his Ps and Qs in order to get the D. It’s a 10k HFN with no cliffhangers, set in a separate universe from our other works.

Part of the Halloween Temptation Multi-Author Series
This Halloween, carve out some time to enjoy some frightfully spicy stories. Don’t be afraid, none of it is real… or so our boys tell themselves. But if they face their fear, if they give in to temptation, they’re in for an eerie-sistible first time. And if they’re lucky, find love – as a treat.

Kellan & Emmett, by Denver Shaw

Emmett
I never thought I’d see Kellan Miller again.
He was my best friend. The one who knew all my secrets—except the biggest one.
That I wanted him.
I told myself it was a phase, just curiosity. But deep down, I knew better.
Graduation night, he gave me my first kiss. The next day, he gave me my first heartbreak.
He gave no explanation. Didn’t say goodbye. Just left a hollow in my chest, carved in his shape.
Twenty years later, he showed up for our high school reunion, looking sinfully good and still hiding behind his carefully built life. The second I felt his presence again, it all came back.
The pull.
The want.
The heat.
I was out. Settled. Gomillion was my home.
If Kelly wanted a second chance, he was going to have to earn it.

Kellan
Coming back was never part of the plan.
I’d spent my whole adult life pretending that night with Emmy didn’t change me. That I could move on, build something stable, keep my truth locked up tight. But nothing about being back in our small town felt settled—not with him watching me like he couldn’t decide whether to forgive me… or tell me to get the f*ck out of his life again.
It felt like it was twenty years ago, being around him was the closest I ever came to feeling like I belonged.
But if I wanted a chance at something real with him, I’d have to stop hiding.
Stop running.
And start fighting for the man I never should’ve left behind.

Gomillion High Reunion series is a multi-author collaboration celebrating the 20th reunion of former classmates in a charming small town. From fake dating and long-held rivalries to first loves and second chances, anything can happen when the past and present collide. Don’t miss the reunion – RSVP today!

Bump Start, by Eve Holmes

When control slips and chaos calls, some collisions are inevitable.

Cade Cormier is a brilliant quantum mechanics professor who can easily explain how energy behaves in the universe. But he can’t explain its absence within himself. Numbness has become his only constant, and he’s chased every force he can find to push back against it. But when drinking and self-destruction leave him emptier than ever, a different kind of force comes crashing into his orbit, and sets a collision in motion.

Alder Roy has spent his life balancing control with chaos—and bleeding for both. As Vice President of New Brunswick’s outlaw motorcycle club, the Basin Kings, he’s built his reputation on fear, loyalty, and danger. But when a rival club starts pushing in, threatening to drown the province in the kind of violence the Kings don’t want on their soil, Alder is prepared to do whatever it takes to protect what’s his. And that includes Cade.

As Cade’s hunger for danger grows, Alder’s obsession with him deepens, and each crack in Cade’s walls gives Alder more to protect… and more to lose. One fights to hold his world together while the other tears his apart—each driven by forces they can’t control.

In New Brunswick, where powerful tides transform landscapes in hours, winding roads cut through unforgiving forests, and cliffs crumble, nature doesn’t wait for permission—and neither can they.

They could be the force that holds each other up against the pull of destruction.

They just need to find balance in the collision.
