    That’s the nice thing about my roommate, though. With him around, I don’t have to be the one to think of all the good ideas.CAIN: Jackson wants to dress me up in a leather harness tonight, and since I kinda like doing what he says, I’m down with that. I’m no Dom, though. In fact, I always thought I was pretty vanilla. But I can’t deny that the idea of heading to the annual Halloween party I can’t get out of attending with a cute little twink on a leash is… uh, well. Let’s just say I don’t hate it.Not sure who Jackson has in mind for me but I trust him. And besides, it’s all just pretend, right? Of course, he did say I get a free pass tonight, so if the twink is willing...I have a secret, but I don’t feel guilty even if I know it’s wrong. Besides, brotherly love is a virtue, right? And since I already know that my big brother will never notice me that way, what’s the harm in a few private fantasies?AZRIEL: My Halloween plans are easy to toss aside when Cain’s roommate calls and tells me Cain needs me.

I know you probably think I dressed up the Robertson boys in leashes and leather solely for my own viewing pleasure, but give a girl some credit. It was purely a selfless act. Well, as close to “pure” as my devious, kinky heart can get, at least.JACKSON: I’ve always been one to seize an opportunity when it presents itself, and a year ago, that landed me the sweetest bit of hunky vanilla manmeat for a roommate that you can imagine. And when I met his baby brother, all fresh-faced and eager and oh-so-obviously panting after Cain like a baby bitch in heat? Well, I was good, boo. They were both in denial and I just left those two adorable repressed boys alone.But tonight, opportunity didn’t just knock, she bent right over and handed me the lube. Denying her would just be mean, now wouldn’t it? And yes, bitch, I fully expect karma to give me my just reward for the good deed I’m about to perform...FREE PASS ON HALLOWEEN NIGHT is a 34,000 word taboo gay m/m/m romance novella with some faux-blood, a LOT of cum, a fair amount of leather and a little bit of lace, some references to a furry suit, a couple of very good boys and one fabulous one, some hellfire and damnation, two ass-cherries that get popped, and enough cock to choke an eager boy and his brother on.

     I learned early on that pretty much everything in life is a scam, and love's at the top of the list. Easy to fake, maximum payout, and people just never stop falling for it. Watching my mom break hearts and empty bank accounts as we bounced from house to house taught me just how dangerous feelings could be. That's a whole lot of hassle I don't need. These days, I stick to three basic rules. I don’t take something just because I want it. I don’t ask for help, even if I need it. And I never look twice at a guy who has a bigger bank account than I do. I know where those things can get you, and it's not anywhere I need to go. I’m perfectly happy being a dive bar rock star who can barely pay his rent, chasing the dream until my time or my sanity runs out. At least, I thought I was. Until Brett showed up. Another thing I don’t do is think about the past. All the people I can never look in the eye again. Who know just how ugly I really am deep down. The last person I need to get mixed up with is someone on that list. The last person I need to go breaking all my rules for is the cocky, spoiled brat who used to sleep in the room across the hall. No matter how gorgeous he is now. No matter how filthy he is in bed. No matter how good it feels when he says all he wants in the world is me. Working Out the Kinks is a 98,000 word filthy forbidden romance novel about a grumpy, broken rock star who refuses to fall in love and a lonely, relentless, spoiled brat looking for someone to belong to. So much angst, so much arguing, so much spanking, and a touch of taboo. Avoid at all costs if you don’t like those things.

    In my personal life? Well, not so much. Not many men approach me, and those who do only see me as a challenge. They either want to brag about getting banged by the bear or are simply curious if I’m “big all over.” Spoiler alert: I am. If anyone does look beyond my intimidating physique, they’re turned off by my borderline control-freak personality. Everything changes when a fight breaks out one night in the club and I come face to face with a beautiful little man. Owen- I can’t get the sexy bouncer out of my head. Titus is everything my wet dreams are made of; tall, broad, strong and gruff. The kind of man who could take charge and own me the way I crave to be owned. The kind of man who never gives a pretty boy like me a second look. My poor dating luck won’t stop me from dreaming of what I really want; a man to be my boyfriend, my Daddy, my dom…my everything. *This M/M romance is for readers 18 and up! It has no cliffhangers or cheating and a very happy HEA.
