Is "straight ghost bromance" a thing ...? I'm completely infatuated with Byron, the gorgeous, tight-shirted barista at the coffee shop on the corner. But he doesn't even know my name. That's probably because I can't seem to form a sentence in front of him without stammering like a total loser. I obviously need help. I just didn't expect that help to come in the form of an obnoxious straight ghost who haunts my apartment. He is the absolute worst roommate I never asked for. He's cocky, self-assured, and the lessons in confidence he wants to give me are questionable. But if I have any hope of scoring a date this Halloween with Byron, I'm going to need my ghost roommate's help. I'm ready to do whatever it takes to get the guy. "My Ghost Roommate (Who Helps Me Get The Guy)" is a hot and hilarious Halloween male/male novella from the author of MAKING THE NAUGHTY LIST and HARD FOR MY BOSS. Expect steamy romantic suspense, screamingly funny and over-the-top situations, and a happy ending that's all treats and... maybe a few tricks.

Tanner, the hunky college football star, returns to his country hometown of Spruce, Texas for the summer. Billy, the smart-as-a-whip budding dessert chef, wants nothing to do with the cocky athlete - or his loud jock buddies. But the more he tries to ignore the football player's charm, the less he can resist it. Billy's peaceful, hot-fudge-glazed little world is about to be flipped upside-down. Get ready for the "sweetest" romance you've ever tasted. In this "sweet & steamy" love story, you can expect some seriously hot man-on-man action, ice cream, and a whole lotta small town southern sass. Read all the books set in Spruce, Texas!

Would you dare fall in love with your childhood enemy? Caleb Fletcher was a shy and lonely kid who desperately wanted a friend. He never dreamed that friend would come in the form of the troublemaking Beau Whitman, who was the neighborhood nightmare on the other side of the fence. Their friends hated each other. Their families kept them apart. But Caleb refused to believe that Beau was a bad person. He knew deep down, the troubled kid was lost and hurting inside. It would be that same belief Caleb carried with him into teenhood, when emotions grew more complicated, and the fine line between good and bad blurred. It would be his hope that drove him through his college years, when the consequences of their pasts would catch up to them. It would be their love that was tested into adulthood, when their lives were on the brink of achieving everlasting happiness — or falling to pieces. Can Beau and Caleb's love withstand the test of time? “When I See You Again” is a stand-alone novel that spans a lifetime, with every chapter taking place 5 years later. It contains potentially sensitive or triggering subject matter. Reader discretion is advised. (Full disclaimer is located in the Foreword.)

Jimmy Strong is one devastating son of a gun. He’s gorgeous, stubborn, a dancer, fiercely protective of his loved ones (to a fault), and intense. He can steal your heart with his infectious laughter ... and break it with a single glance of his stunning, rich brown eyes. I ought to know. He breaks mine every day. Being his gay best friend and college roomie is, to say the least, frustrating. Especially when you’ve seen just about every inch of that corn-fed beauty, he’s worked his way into every fantasy you can remember having, and he’s as straight as they make them. We’re heading back to Spruce for the summer. He just broke things off with his latest lady-squeeze, which means I have Jimmy all to myself for three long months of relaxation, bro-time, and kicking back. Until one night alone with Jimmy - and a reckless, unthinkable move - that changes everything. Read all the books set in Spruce, Texas!

Vann, the gorgeous, leather-jacket-clad new bad boy in school, just set his eyes on me. I'm not really good at making friends. That's simply a fact. I'm happy enough if I can just get through the school day, avoid eye contact with anything that breathes, and make it home where my family can continue ignoring my existence and I can play video games in peace. But then he crashes into my life like a tidal wave. The hot new senior at Spruce High. The bad boy everyone can't stop talking about. The one with the leather jacket, smoldering eyes, and cloud of danger following him. The one called Vann. My whole life changes overnight. Now, I want different things. I want an end to my lonesomeness. I want to stand up to the jocks who keep pushing me around. But most importantly, I want to know what Vann's lips taste like. And why he looks pained every time his dark eyes catch mine in class. And why he keeps paying attention to me when the rest of the town doesn't. And why every time I open my mouth to speak, my racing heart chokes me. I don't know what's coming for me in my last year at Spruce High, but I sure hope I’m ready for it.

CODY One minute, I'm serving my country as a soldier with a purpose. The next, I sustain a near fatal injury saving my best friend's life and am shipped back home like damaged cargo. Ripped from my military brothers and everything I know, I'm sentenced to my hometown of Spruce to recover - and endure the town's prying eyes and scrutiny. I'm left to question my purpose, struggling to find fulfillment in my new civilian life. No one can deal with me. I scared away all the nurses. Five of them, to be exact. My poor mom is running out of options. That's when they send my last resort: Trey Arnold, the town preacher's son. I don't have high hopes. His sweet face and gentle demeanor don't give me much confidence that he'll have what it takes to handle me. But there is a fearlessness in his eyes I can't deny, and the longer I stare into them, the more I see. It doesn't matter how brave he thinks he is, taking me on. If he had any sense, he'd turn around and go right now. TREY I'm not easily intimidated. But when I am confronted with Cody Davis - and his impossibly intense eyes and boundless strength - I find myself facing my greatest challenge. Being the gay son to the town reverend - in a place as open-hearted and loving as Spruce, Texas - most people assume my life is easy. But I battle my own demons, too, still haunted by the passing of my mother and questioning my faith. My father is not much better off, struggling every day with his own burdens. That makes my duty to Cody all the more meaningful. Each time he challenges me, I become more determined to help the young Army vet. Maybe if I save him, I can save myself, too. But with each minute I spend around Cody, I become more confused, losing track of why I'm here at all. Why does Cody keep looking at me that way? Why can't I keep my heart from racing when he's near? The pain in Cody's eyes seems to mirror mine. So does the desire. ✔️ M/M romance ✔️ Army vet & preacher's son ✔️ Small-town Have you read all the books in the Spruce Texas series?
