[Siren Everlasting Classic ManLove: Erotic Alternative Paranormal Romance, M/M, shape-shifters, light Consensual BDSM, sex toys, HEA] Driven to claim his mate… Derek fled the West Coast for Twin Pines College to escape his family’s scrutiny about his personal life, which allows him to stay firmly in the closet. Playing football is just a bonus. Then, he meets a man worth coming out for—the almost impossibly handsome Grizzlies' quarterback, Brandon Sanders. Brandon’s refined good looks hide a dark desire. To placate his controlling father, Brandon lives a secret life of quick flings with equally closeted lovers. Never has he found a partner he trusts enough to fully let go and let himself fulfill his deepest desire—to submit sexually to the right man. As the unlikely pair explores each other’s most compelling fantasies, Brandon begins to wonder if the security of his father’s money and approval is worth living a lie. As Brandon gathers the courage to break free, strange things start happening between him and Derek, a mystery that grows only deeper when they find out the bear they saw in the back of the team’s equipment truck was real. Who will be able to explain their new, strange connection, and will that bond be strong enough to support a brand-new life out in the open? Note: Driven Alpha [Twin Pines Grizzlies 2] was previously published as Quarterback [Gridiron Gods 2]. Due to popular demand, the series has been revised to emphasize the bear shifting. If you have already read Gridiron Gods 1 to 7, you do not need to read Twin Pines Grizzlies 1 to 7 in order to continue with Strong Alpha [Twin Pines Grizzlies 8]. Driven Alpha will be available on its release date in your bookshelf for download if you have already purchased Quarterback directly at BookStrand (this option is not available if purchased elsewhere).
