Genre: LGBT, Contemporary When sexy, kilt-wearing astronomy professor Greg MacIntyre moves in next door, Blake Theriot knows he's in trouble. Blake is a research librarian, and he likes things orderly and controlled. But in his secret fantasies, he craves a big, powerful man like Greg to stir up his life. Every time Blake tries to talk to his erudite neighbor, his brain shuts down and his vocabulary is reduced to one-word utterances, but when Blake's niece challenges him to invite Greg to dinner, he does. A few shots of after-dinner whiskey loosen Blake's inhibitions, and the two men share a hot kiss and the promise of more. Can Blake relax enough to give himself a chance with Greg, or will his fear of letting go ruin his hopes for love? Publisher's note: This book is a revised, re-edited version of one previously released by another publisher under the same title.

Astro-physicist Matthew Dansk falls for one of his colleagues during a research trip, but Matt is looking for a serious relationship and he doesn't date men who are in the closet. Alan has no interest in letting anyone find out he's gay and he never goes out with the same man twice. When the two men part ways, Matt believes their situation is hopeless, and he does his best to forget his feelings for Alan. Months later, Alan winds up in the hotel room next to Matt's at a conference, and both men realize the chemistry between them hasn't diminished. As they spend time together, Matt sees a different side of Alan. When he realizes Alan's feelings for him run deeper than he'd thought possible, he begins to hope that they can be together after all.
