Crush

Love Conquers - James & Richard

Two men whose love has stood the test of time, through troubling times to defining moments, watch James and Rich as they hold on to the one person who means more than anything else in the world.

This is a 7,500 word short prequel into the Crush series.

Instant Desire - Sean & Asher

Will his past stop him from accepting their future?

Sean doesn’t need anyone. They only leave anyway, so what’s the point. He has his job, his home and socialises with people who don’t expect too much from him. It’s all he needs. When he’s hired by Asher, he can’t deny the pull he feels towards the client. It’s not what he wants, though. Is it?

Asher became guardian of his niece when his sister died several years ago. A failed relationship taught him that he didn’t have time to date and bring up a young child, as well as run a business. Hiring an architect is the first step to separating his personal and professional life. He doesn’t expect to fall for the man. Especially one as haunted as this one is.

Loss has a way of changing how people view the world, but can it bring together two souls to create a future full of happiness?

This is a single father, low angst romance.

Primary Seduction - Max & Trent

Will their differences be too vast, or can opposites truly attract?

Trent is being pulled in too many directions when all he wants to do is lose himself in someone for a night. His ex-wife wants to take him for every penny, his two kids are too busy to see him. Meeting Max confuses everything, including his heart. When Max calls him for help, Trent doesn’t hesitate, even when it throws him into a lifestyle he has no idea about.

Max has everything he’s ever wanted: own business, membership to an exclusive BDSM club, friends to socialise with. So why is he pining for a man who is not only straight, but that he has nothing in common with? He has no choice but to call Trent when he’s beaten and left for dead. When Trent arrives, their lives are irrevocably changed.

Are they able to see past their contrasting personalities to try for a future?

This is an MM romance with an age gap, hurt/comfort and sexual awakening.

Deep Down - Craig & Alex

A hurt/comfort, high-angst, MM romance which includes a male domestic abuse storyline.

What happens when he realises he’s living a lie?

Balance is important for Craig. It keeps his life ticking along without incident. His life is not as picture perfect as it appears from the outside, and when he has to be patched up at the hospital several times, people begin to talk. But what are they talking about? His boyfriend is his rock, his life, his...abuser? It doesn’t make sense.

A busy hospital is Alex’s dream. It’s where he is most comfortable, and his social life suffers because of it. When he has to deal with a patient who appears ignorant of the signs of abuse, he can’t leave it alone. Alex is able to heal Craig’s body, but nothing makes Craig see what’s right in front of him. 

When Alex does reach out, Craig’s boyfriend sees him as a threat, and Craig’s carefully balanced life falls apart - under the fists of the man who has promised to love him.

Can love heal all wounds, or does the brain need time to catch up with the heart?
