After eight years in the Marines, he’s only back for two weeks before he’s off on his next adventure – a new life working with his brother in New York. He’s never had a reason to stay in one place—but when he runs into his old best friend, Ben, he can’t forget what they almost once shared. Will he be able to come to terms with his sexuality? “My roots are here. This is my home.” Ben Harper’s family has lived in Baxter Springs for generations. He’s openly gay, but he’s never gotten over his strong feelings for his best friend, Chase. When his parents died in a car accident, the family ranch became his responsibility. His brother helps run the ranch, but the big, comfortable house that’s seen a hundred years of love and laughter feels cold and lonely now that Ben is the only one who calls it home. A proposition from Chase is too good to refuse. “Two weeks. No Strings. No feelings. Those are the rules.” When Ben runs into Chase unexpectedly, sparks fly as they try all the things they were too shy and inexperienced to do when they were younger. This time, though, Ben wants rules and assurances that when the two weeks are up, his heart won’t be broken again when Chase says goodbye. Love doesn’t always play by the rules, and when it’s time for Chase to leave, Ben will have to choose between his keeping his family’s legacy alive and taking a chance on the only man he’s ever loved.

    Oh, he had friends and he did his best not to show any of the jealousy he might have felt as they all paired off with gorgeous hunks. But while his friends were all talking about romantic plans for the upcoming Valentine's day, his only plans for the day included curling up with his cat Winston, and binge watching his favorite television shows. Lex was in a bind, a serious one. His father had given him six weeks to find a bond or true mate and present that person on Valentine's Day. With three days to go, Lex was running out of options. He needed a paranormal person - someone who could understand his issues, and who could handle staying with him long enough to appease his father. But when he spotted a cute human walk into the bar he was drowning his sorrows in, his tiger stirred. The human had paranormal friends. Unfortunately, Lex puts his big foot in his mouth within minutes of meeting Charlie. If it wasn't for Charlie's friends, his situation might have been worse. But when Terry and Zander, Sully and Q, and Roy and Richard all pitch in to help, Lex might have finally found a way to win his mate and get his father off his back for good.

    I sneezed the chickens bald, and there's no way they are letting me anywhere near the ducks or bunnies now. Basket weaving? The less said about my attempts there, the better. Preparing the real eggs? I set the water to boil them on literal fire, and when they moved me to egg painting, I broke out in hives. I swelled up so big, they had to bring me down from where I floated up to the ceiling. If we'd been outside, I'd have drifted off like some errant cloud! Candy testing is out as I hate sweets, so it all tastes disgusting to me.

That's how I found myself assigned to the human world, working for the Feed and Seed department. Arranging and collecting deliveries of fresh greens and stuff for the bunnies and chicks should be fine, right? I knew I'd struck gold when on my very first day, I found it- a place called Rabbit Food. And the human working there? Oh wow...I think he might just be my mate!

    But when my oldest friend Reed offered me a fresh start, I couldn’t say no. As it turns out, I love ranch life, and it doesn't hurt that Walker, the other ranch hand, is pretty cute.

I thought Walker was straight, but we keep having moments together… and that kiss in the moonlight was anything but straight. Walker and I have chemistry, when he's not pretending I don't exist, but it's not until we're stranded in a mountainside cabin that I learn how he really feels about me. He claims he cares about me… but why is he so afraid of anyone finding out? Walker: After the loss of my wife ten years ago, I gave up on relationships. I'd lost my one shot at love—why bother with anymore heartache? But when Tristan shows up at the ranch, he turns my entire world on its head. I've never felt this way about a man before, but Tristan isn't just any man. He's clever and sweet and broken, and suddenly all I want to do is fix him. Tristan deserves better than our midnight trysts, but I'm not sure I’m brave enough to come out yet. When our secret relationship starts taking a toll on him, though, I have to choose: Will I run and hide from the pressure of society? Or will I be brave enough to be the strong, supportive, and out partner that Tristan deserves? Someone Worth Keeping is an m/m slow burn contemporary romance with out-for-you, secret relationship, and hurt/comfort themes, plenty of heat, and a happy ending.
