Juggernaut
Amelia C. Gormley - 2015
Now they have to survive the new one.Nico Fernández has a charmed life. Working as a high-end escort in his mother's agency beats the hell out of being trafficked for slave wages in some corporate brothel. And no one needs to know about his occasional side jobs, like seducing political and military dignitaries, and "nudging" them with mind-altering agents to swing their votes to favor his longest-standing client.Zach Houtman's life should be charmed, but isn't. His father, the Reverend Maurice Houtman, in pursuit of political aspirations, insists Zach act as his advisor rather than indulging in his true calling: ministering to the most vulnerable outcasts of society. Politics, however, gradually turn Zach's father away from Christ and toward malicious zealotry, and Zach discovers his campaign is courting violent fundamentalists.When one of Nico's "special jobs" results in military approval for a weaponized virus that mutates, unleashing a deadly plague to claim billions of lives, Nico and Zach are thrown together. Each burdened by terrible guilt for their unwitting roles in the calamity, they find safety and solace in each other. But the new world is a dangerous, violent place, where the handful of survivors are willing to do anything, and kill anyone, to get by.
Three

I'm road-tripping across the country to sell a luxury RV, and I’ve got two copilots. One’s as straight as an arrow, but they both want me riding shotgun. Roman and Alex are as different as fire and ice, and between the two of them I’m feeling the heat. The road is bumpy, but they’ve got me buckled in. ALEX: Two’s company, three’s a ménage. When I’m asked to be Skylar’s companion and protect him, it comes naturally—even when I end up handling two stunning men. People look to me when they want to feel safe. The military taught me discipline, and these two are in need of a strong, guiding hand. I’m looking both ways, and the road ahead is anything but straight. ROMAN: There’s no third wheel on this ride. A road trip with two total strangers? Sign me up. I’m riding with a knight in shining armor and a prince I wouldn’t mind rescuing, and I’m more than happy to do a little roleplay. I know what I like on the road and between the sheets—they just need a nudge in the right direction. After all, the best things in life are three.

Izzy and the Right Answer
R. Cooper - 2019
He’s had no interest in romantic love until very recently, when he realized he has a crush on someone in his circle of friends—although he has no intention of doing anything about it. Izzy thinks every problem through to the correct solution, and he knows that the initial fascination some people have for him quickly fades, and no one is interested in actually dating him. Especially not someone special like Rocco. Rocco Baglieri is a hard-working, reserved student-athlete. He gets especially quiet with Izzy, although he’s more comfortable around everyone else, especially their mutual friend, Ronnie. Which would bother Izzy more, except that Izzy is all smiles for Ronnie too. Warm and giving Ronnie Acebedo is sunshine personified. He once had a crush on Izzy during their first year, but got over it and is now one of Izzy’s closest friends. Then a drunken night and Izzy’s new awareness of romantic feelings force him to finally notice some things—like that he isn’t the only one pining. To Izzy, the solution to this triangle is obvious—if he disappears, Rocco and Ronnie will have a straight line to each other. But brilliant though he is, Izzy forgets that Ronnie and Rocco have minds—and hearts—of their own, and there are more options than lines or triangles. The right answer might be something else entirely. An m/m/m romance
