Wanna Bet?

2021

One night changes everything for two best friends. During their fifteen years of friendship in the Marine Corps, West and Logan have made countless bets, trading the same worn-out hundred dollar bill back and forth. One night at a bar, West bets Logan that within fifteen minutes he can convince two women to have a foursome with them. Not believing his friend can do it, Logan takes the bet. The night that follows is a little more eye-opening than either man planned. During his years as a Marine, Logan kept his bisexuality to himself, firmly squashing the attraction he felt for West when they met. But the night of the foursome, those feelings reawaken, leaving Logan raw and unsure. West definitely enjoyed the foursome, but the more he thinks about it, the more he wonders if Logan’s presence is what really turned him on. Confused and needing answers, his next bet follows a plan that he hopes will make things clear to him. But at what cost? Wanna Bet? is a prelude to the Balls and Brawn series.

Out of Harm's Way

2021

I’m coming after you, baby boy. You’re going to pay for what you did. The terrifying text message from Mick Water's abuser, recently escaped from prison, sends him spiraling into panic. His life is just getting back on track, and now he's constantly looking over his shoulder and barely able to sleep at night. When his friends arrange for a bodyguard for him, Mick feels a confusing combination of relief at having protection, dismay at the sheer size of his new bodyguard, and arousal due to Mick's attraction to big men. His ex was a big man, and Mick paid dearly for that attraction. Oxford Bradley enjoys his job with Foster Security, which includes a mixed bag of high-stakes cases—some of them dangerous—and dull babysitting-type situations. When he isn't working, he prefers a serene life devoid of drama and, let’s face it, a somewhat vanilla sex life. Assigned to protect a terrified man from his abusive ex, Ox is horrified at his body’s reaction to not only Mick himself, but also Mick’s admission to a Daddy kink—he’s never had an unprofessional relationship with a client and he isn’t starting now. As Mick warms up to Ox and the two men get to know one another, the attraction between them grows. Ox refuses to break his professional code, but what about when the danger's over? Living in different states, they can't possibly have more than a one-off, and the temptation to explore with this intriguing man is undeniable. Will one night send Ox running back to his comfortable vanilla lifestyle, or will Mick help him find a new favorite flavor? And what happens when an opportunity presents itself for Ox to see Mick again? Out of Harm’s Way is an MM romance and the first book in the Balls and Brawn Bodyguard series.

Out of Reach

2023

Jude English spent his childhood in the foster care system and then on the streets, never having a plan in mind other than where his next meal would come from. When he first laid eyes on Hawk Sterling tending bar at a nightclub, Jude immediately wanted the handsome Navy SEAL. But all he got that night was kicked out of the bar for being underage. Jude was persistent, though, and eventually, he and Hawk became a couple. Hawk Sterling remembers the day that Jude told him their relationship was over as the worst day of his life. Up to that point, he never realized how much he depended on Jude always being there. It took many sleepless nights and a lot of therapy for Hawk to come to terms with the fact that he'd lost the man he loved through his own blind selfishness. Four years have passed since Jude abruptly left, and Hawk has come to grips with never seeing Jude again. So, it takes a moment for him to believe what he’s seeing when his boss hands him his next assignment. Hawk knew that Jude had achieved his dream of becoming a model, but he didn’t realize that, until recently, Jude had been dating Sam Prescott—a suspected crime boss. And now, Prescott has put a hit out on Jude. The smart thing to do would be to hand over the assignment to one of his coworkers at Falcon Security, but Hawk doesn't trust anyone except himself to keep Jude safe. He might not be able to resurrect the past, but he can save Jude's life and get him out of the mess he's gotten himself into. Hawk is determined to do so—even if it costs him his job. Out of Reach is the third book in the Balls and Brawn Security Series. Books can be read on their own but are best read in order.
