Welcome to Diamond Falls, a small town with big secrets. Join the Gemstone Guardians as they learn to work together, harness their powers, and find love with their true mates. Flighty omega Wesley Sparks always thought his grandfather’s stories were just that… stories. When his grandfather’s death leaves him with a strange, precious ruby, he becomes a target of an otherworldly darkness, forcing him to face the truth: the mythical Gemstone Guardians are real, and he’s the newest recruit. He finds temporary safety in the small, secret enclave of Diamond Falls, where he learns to harness his gem and finds others like him. Others like his childhood best friend… Daniel. Sweet alpha Daniel Anderson is haunted by his missed chance at love... Lonely and jaded, Dan pours energy into his donut shop. But love can’t keep a business afloat, and Dan needs cash—fast. When he gets a mysterious invitation and a chance to save his business, he doesn’t think twice. What could go wrong? An ancient evil gathers... Dan has been dreaming of Wes for ten years, and can barely believe it when they meet again. Their reunion sizzles, prompting Wes to look at his old best friend in an entirely new light. Dan won’t let this second chance escape him—but can best friends turn into lovers? The gem awakens a dormant omega gene… Suddenly and unexpectedly pregnant, Wes and his ragtag team of Guardians must master their gems before the danger falls upon them, and he loses everything he never knew he wanted. This knotty story contains an excitable guinea pig shifter, a smoking-hot shower, a vampire librarian, and one big, hard, long… tower. Ruby Heat is the first book in the Love in Diamond Falls series by fantasy romance author Connor Crowe. Fans of Harry Potter and Sailor Moon will love this new, exciting love story.
