If I'm as straight as I always thought, why does kissing my best friend feel so right? Zach has been my ride or die since we were nine. Business partners, roommates, best friends...we do everything together. But the last thing either of us expected was to be staring forty in the face just as single as we both were when we made a silly, drunken marriage pact twenty years ago. The problem? Zach is gay…and, well, I’m not. Under pressure from family, that pact comes rushing back, and I lock us into a fake engagement. But is it possible some part of me wants it to be real? Convincing Zach I’m legit is another story. With each passing day, I wonder if my feelings of affection for my best friend can morph into the love I desperately want in my life. Something in Zach’s eyes tells me we can have it all if we just try. It may have taken me a lifetime to see Zach with new eyes, but with every touch and discovery, it’s been worth the wait. On the edge of Dirty Forty, it’s time to go for it. All I have to do is convince Zach it’s real. Dirty Forty is a best friends to lovers, marriage pact, demi/bisexual awakening featuring thirty years of pining, a fake engagement, curious kisses, and two guys finally embracing what’s always been in front of them.

I want a commitment like I want a rash so why can’t I get the bossy twink with pretty lips and plenty of snark out of my head?  Anyone who spends time with me knows two things. 1. If I want something I get it, which is how I end up back in my old college haunts, buying a dilapidated bar with my five best friends and staring down the barrel of an unknown future. 2. The idea of settling down makes my skin crawl, and that’s how I made it to forty with zero serious relationships in the rear view mirror. At least I’m smart enough to hire the right people. Enter Salem Barlowe, the prettiest twink who ever twinked and my personal kryptonite. Physically he’s everything I like but our personalities couldn’t be more at odds.

Rules exist for a reason, but when I meet the vampire of my dreams, all I want to do is break them. Geordi  Five years ago, humans found out in the most violent way possible that vampires do in fact exist. After the uprising, the two sides settled on three rules to keep both groups safe — vampires can’t use compulsion, humans can’t hunt them, and absolutely no romance between the two groups. I lost a lot, but I found my purpose— researching what makes vampires different from mortals to help us coexist peacefully. I like following rules and things were fine until I went rogue, testing a vaccine to create an impenetrable shield against compulsion. I needed a vampire to work with me, so I chose Elias Caswell, the powerful and only slightly terrifying centuries-old vampire who’s played a starring role in my fantasy life for ages. Elias is a hedonist, and as he introduces me to his world, he quickly unravels my carefully constructed plans. When the vaccine is stolen and the city descends into chaos, my life is in danger, and I’m forced to face a traumatic secret of my own. I need to find an antidote, restore the peace, and with Elias convinced I’m his consort, try to resist a bond that’s thicker than blood. Should be easy. Right, and Vlad the Impaler just wanted to cuddle. Thicker Than Blood is standalone MM Paranormal Romance.
