Derek took a look, admiring the soft gold as it glinted in Sawyer’s skin, the scent of Sawyer’s come strong on the air.
“Oh my God. That is incredible. It’s beautiful too.” And Derek was more in love than ever.
Sawyer reached up and cupped his cheek, and he brought their mouths together, putting all the things he was feeling into the kiss. Then they rested their foreheads together, breathing in the same air.
It was Luke who grabbed a wet wipe from Origami’s tray and cleaned Sawyer up.
“Thanks, dude.” Derek was too busy eye-fucking Sawyer right now.
“Anytime.”
“So when do we get to play with it?” Benny wanted to know.
“Not for a while.” Derek wasn’t too busy to look again at the pamphlet for aftercare they’d been given. “And we’ll need to keep it clean whenever liquid comes out of it.” He gave Sawyer a grin. “I’ll have to milk you on a regular basis so that there’s a onetime cleanup every few days.”
Sawyer’s eyes went wide; then he moaned and pushed against Derek’s chest.
“Maybe we can watch the next time you do that. Then the time after, I can do Benny at the same time.”
“I don’t know about that,” murmured Benny. “Sawyer was seriously losing it when you did that to him.”
“Only in the best way.” Sawyer sighed. “Can we go home? I’m going to need a couple Advil soon, and I’d rather be done traveling before the adrenaline wears off completely.”
“Of course!” Derek carefully tucked Sawyer back into his underwear, then pulled his sweats up. God, he loved this man. He looked into Sawyer’s eyes. They still pulled him in, but the sadness that had been there when they first met was gone now, and he could see his own happiness reflected back at him.
He helped Sawyer to stand, and Luke and Benny went out ahead of them like a pair of bodyguards. Derek held Sawyer’s hand as they walked to the car. This was better than ice cream. Even pecan caramel brittle.

Can they survive the off-season and keep from striking out?
Baseball player Brett must get rehabilitation for his shoulder if he wants another season in the Major Leagues. He and his partner, Benj, take off to the boonies to stay with physical therapist Ralph, a tough-talking, routine-setting guy, and Jean, Ralph’s Cajun lover, who cooks as well as he loves.
Brett and Ralph butt heads from the beginning. Ralph wants Brett to be more in touch with his feelings; Brett wants Ralph to give him his therapy and leave him alone. Benj and Jean get along far better, with Jean showing Benj around the kitchen and reassuring him when things with Brett get strained.
Before Ralph can even begin to work on Brett’s shoulder, though, Brett faces an even more difficult physical challenge, one that does more than threaten his career. He and Benj have to work through some tough issues, making decisions that will affect the rest of their lives together. Their gradual friendship with Ralph and Jean helps them through the bad times, but even that might not be enough to pull them through.
When Jeff agreed to be the sperm donor to his best friend Beth, he never expected a tragedy to leave his newborn and three-year-old motherless. Beth’s loss has totally thrown his life into chaos: his lover has left him, his house isn’t anywhere near childproof, and his boss feels the restaurant has been patient enough with Jeff’s time off.
Donny has always known he wanted to work with kids, and he just finished his degree in early childhood education. He didn’t count on the prejudice he’d face as not only a male nanny, but a gay one at that. Job-hunting has been frustrating to say the least, so when he knocks on Jeff’s door and is greeted by the sounds of things breaking and a pair of screaming children, he thinks maybe he can begin this particular interview with a trial by fire.
Becoming the nanny to Jeff’s children might be a dream come true for Danny and exactly what Jeff needs, but are either of them ready to really be a family?
With four girls, single dad Ryan Withers has his hands too full to look for romance. He’s not complaining—he loves his daughter and the three nieces he adopted when their parents died, and he would do anything for them. He’s caught off guard when his mother and daughter decide to play matchmaker.
Alex Bernot works in disaster relief, his job taking him all over the world, helping others, for extended periods of time. He’s staying with his aunt while he’s home, and she sets him up on a blind date. Finding a special someone isn’t really on his mind, but he goes to make his aunt happy.
Ryan and Alex enjoy each other’s company more than either of them expected, and they soon make a second date. Their lives are complicated, though, in very different ways, and soon family needs and their jobs conspire to pull them apart. They’ll need to figure out how to work through the things keeping them apart, but first they’ll have to decide if they even want to….
The Supers
Hunting ghosts and finding more than they bargained for.
Blaine Franks is a member of the paranormal research group the Supernatural Explorers. When the group loses their techie to a cross-country move, newly graduated Flynn Huntington gets the job. Flynn fits in with the guys right off the bat, but when it comes to him and Blaine, it’s more than just getting along.
Things heat up between Blaine and Flynn as they explore their first haunted building, an abandoned hospital, together. Their relationship isn’t all that progresses, though, and soon it seems that an odd bite on Blaine’s neck has become much more.
Hitchhiking ghosts, a tragic love story forgotten by time, and the mystery of room 204 round out a romance where the things that go bump in the night are real.
When his three-year-old daughter is kidnapped, Eric Wilson doesn’t have many options, and time is running out. With nowhere else to turn, he reaches out to his ex, influential businessman Brock Vencenza, whose money and contacts might be able to save Josie.
Brock never got over Eric’s loss, and he’s more than willing to help when Eric needs him most. Together with law enforcement and private security, they embark on a twisting investigation to find the little girl—and who wants to hurt her and destroy both men in the process. Under the circumstances, confessing he still has feelings for Eric would be inappropriate, but Brock can’t deny what’s in his heart. He doesn’t know if their love can be rekindled or if he can even protect Eric and Josie. But one thing is certain: Brock’s determined to be the hero in reality that he is in Eric’s eyes.

Often referred to as “Space Cowboy” and “Gangsta of Love” while still striving for the moniker of “Maurice,” SEAN MICHAEL spends his days surfing, smutting, organizing his immense gourd collection and fantasizing about one day retiring on a small secluded island peopled entirely by horseshoe crabs. While collecting vast amounts of vintage gay pulp novels and mood rings, Sean whiles away the hours between dropping the f-bomb and pursuing the Kama Sutra by channeling the long-lost spirit of John Wayne and singing along with the soundtrack to Chicago.
A longtime writer of complicated haiku, currently Sean is attempting to learn the advanced arts of plate spinning and soap carving sex toys.
> Barring any of that? He’ll stick with writing his stories, thanks, and rubbing pretty bodies together to see if they spark.
