Morgan, the second-born son of a prominent family, ventures to court to find a bride. He's aided by Liam, a charming rake who may not be what he seems. *** Morgan Winslow arrives at Mothshire Court for the summer marriage market, recently heartbroken and eager to carry on his family's legacy. He has every intention of finding a wife, despite his true desires. But as rumours swirl that he enjoys the company of other men, his prospects look poor. This prompts his stepmother to enlist the help of notorious rake Liam Danmore to rehabilitate his image. But Liam might not be the womanizer he appears, and Morgan's will to conform may not be as strong as he thought. The court of Queen Ainsley is a progressive one, with a proclamation in place that allows men to marry if they give up their inheritance. But members of the conservative elite who disagree with these policies (including Liam's father) plot to install the prince over his twin sister as the queen's health fails. As Liam and Morgan grow closer, they discover more and more of the secret underground of the summer palace. The conspiracy against the queen threatens the reforms she ushered in along with the very existence of the underground itself. There are more than a few obstacles in their path, and powerful figures working against them. But one thing is certain: if they want to be together, they'll have to fight for it.

Determined to have Knox at any cost, Vincent begins eliminating his own brothers, clawing his way to the throne.

And the only thing he will ever want... is Knox. Top: Alpha Knox Bottom: Vincent

~WATTYS SHORTLIST 2025~ Hunter Dannings was a young CEO who had given up on love. But when he met River Conyers, a single dad and bar owner, his life began to change. Being around River gave him hope, and being around his daughter, Melodie, let Hunter imagine creating the family he's always wanted. But River doesn't let people in easily. And falling for him puts Hunter at risk for more heartbreak than he's ever known. ----- "Thanks for bringing me home." "It's no problem," Hunter shrugged, crossing his arms against the bitter Toronto cold. "You did the same for me." "Yeah," River started in, but paused, fingers tightening around the doorknob. "Maybe I should return the favor." In two large steps, River stepped in front of Hunter. His breath left his lips in small clouds as he stared determinedly at Hunter's mouth. Hunter's body was confused. After battling the oncoming winter chill for so long, it was strange to suddenly have River in front of him, warming his skin from proximity alone. Fingertips tinged pink by the cold reached up, grabbing Hunter's jacket and using the fabric to pull the taller man down. "You were gone for so long and never reached out," River croaked, fists tightening around the fabric of Hunter's coat. "Never sent me a text or gave me a call." "I'm sorry." "Are you?" River's whispered words warmed Hunter's lips, teasing him with the promise of more. "Then prove it." __________________________________ Highest Rankings: #1 mxm/malexmale/manxman #1 gayness/unlimitedpride #1 parent/singleparent #1 nosmut #3 gay #3 lgbtlove/lgbtlovestory #4 gaylove #5 fallinginlove #7 bxblove #16 wattpride #35 lgbt #64 bxb #96 boyxboy #99 single-parent #136 lgbtq #200 BL Date Started: 02/02/2024 Date Completed: 10/4/2024
