Spring Forward
Rachel Kane - 2020
A handyman with a past full of secrets. And the small town that would change them forever. It should've been a dream come true for Liam, inheriting the old mansion named Superbia Springs. It helped him meet Mason, the handyman who kept the town running. Mason is sweet, generous, and good with his hands. (If only he'd use those hands on Liam...) But Mason has a secret, and the old house has a secret, and the whole town seems full of secrets. Mason knows he can't fall for Liam, no matter how the man makes him burn with passion. Gay single dads are off limits when you're stuck in the closet. Liam hates secrets, and after hearing what happened to Liam's father and his ex, Mason desperately wants to give him his heart...and his whole story. But how can he tell Liam what's really keeping him in the closet, when it could destroy people's lives? Liam knows he should pack up his bags and his baby and head straight back for his home in the city...but something about Superbia draws him back inexorably. Maybe it's the town itself. Maybe it's the mansion, with all its mysteries. Or maybe it's because he can't get Mason out of his mind, out of his dreams, out of his heart. Can the irresistible desire the two men feel for each other overcome the small-town grudges, feuds and scandals that threaten to keep them apart?

Why?” He asked and Reginald’s lips twisted as he considered then rubbed his forehead. There was a tickle of anxiety and it was all over Paul’s ass. They wouldn’t be able to keep their hands off it. “There’s a very good chance it could get out of hand or a bit…sketchy,” he warned and Paul snorted as he turned back to him and hugged his chest. Reginald hissed as he straightened Paul’s arms. “The pins!” He reminded him. “Don’t pull them out or we’ll have to wait for Marco to re-pin it,” he scolded then offered him a sheepish wince. “Out of hand and sketchy is my bread and butter. It’s my happy place but I don’t know if I want you there,” he admitted and Paul blinked back at him. “You’ve got better odds on pulling a leprechaun out of your ass than walking into whatever this is without me,” he promised and Reginald swore as he scrubbed his face with his hands. “I have a terrible feeling about this,” he said and Paul chuckled as he poked at the items on the tray. “Definitely not going alone,” he stated firmly and Reginald swore as he slapped his hand away and reached for a pure white velvet pocket square. He presented it dramatically before folding it then slid it into the pocket on Paul’s chest. “I won’t be in any danger but you might,” he said as he left just enough of the white showing. “I’ve ran just about every type of undercover operation imaginable and survived your employer, I can handle whatever this party thing is,” Paul said and Reginald hummed in amusement. “It’s going to require all of my focus just to keep you from getting mauled. A gorgeous, impeccably built, circumcised American in a tuxedo this exquisitely tailored…”
