Mr. Mouthful

Big Talent, Huge Ego, and an Enormous… Everything. Josh- After years of hard work I finally landed my dream job as a musician with a major orchestra. When our new conductor with a name too hard to pronounce strutted on to the stage for the first time, he oozed a confident and cocky sex appeal that captivated me and every other person present. I was used to being the wallflower, the boy always picked last for the team. So when he demanded I meet him after work for a private rehearsal, I was shocked. Of course I went, only to discover my new conductor was a bit handsy, if you know what I mean. At first I thought I was reading too much into it, but the chemistry sparking between us was real. Serge was more than just my boss, he was a force of nature determined to make me his. Serge- Don’t fall in love. Ever. That’s how I lived my life, until I met him. When I first laid eyes on Joshua, all I could think of was how much I wanted to hear his voice screaming my name while I… you get the picture. I was coming dangerously close to falling for him, which could destroy me and the paper-thin walls I’d built to keep the world at bay. On the outside, I appeared to have everything a man could want. A successful career that spanned the globe, and a face that appeared on the covers of magazines. On the inside, I had a secret that could destroy us both. Trigger Warning: Scene involving suicide. Mr. Mouthful is a red-hot read about a mercurial man who appears to have it all, but realizes he has nothing without the only man he loves by his side.

The Boundary

2020

“Don’t touch me like that if you don’t mean it.” Rémy- One fateful night on the stage of the Royal Opera House, my life was irrevocably changed. Midway through a performance, and in front of thousands of fans, my voice failed me. Instead of giving up, I swore I’d forge a new path. Two years later, my voice was better than ever, and thanks to an old schoolmate, Serge Kuznetsov, I signed a lucrative contract with the Virginia Opera that came with many perks. This included an alluring personal assistant, Gray Wyatt. I’d kissed Gray, a mistake a boss should never make with an employee. The feeling of his body trembling in my arms, and the moans that came deep from within his chest, played on repeat in my heated imagination. It didn’t matter where I was, or what I was doing, the memory of that forbidden kiss haunted me. Gray- When I first moved to Richmond, I envisioned a happy future filled with love and excitement. Instead, my alcoholic boyfriend dumped me, and I was fired from my crappy retail job. I was tempted to throw in the towel, but Lady Luck had one more curveball to throw at me. A new job, as personal assistant to a hypnotic opera singer who made every fiber of my being throb with desire. Insane tension burned between us. I thought it was my imagination, but I’d swear he wanted me too. Whenever I touched Rémy, his skin would flush, and his breathing would become ragged. There was a boundary I longed to cross, but I didn’t dare. He was my boss, and I wasn’t about to lose my job. I kept my paws to myself, until one fateful night backstage when Rémy blew through that boundary, and I longed for him more than ever. The Boundary is a feverish tale of two men who dared to follow their hearts. It is book five in The Boys of Oregon Hill Series, and it’s set in the same world as the bestselling novel Mr. Mouthful. Like the other books in the series, you can read it as a stand-alone novel.
