Desperate for love and a place to belong, Leo Ward has lived his life in silence. After a traumatic childhood incident, he lost his voice and was taken in by adoptive parents who treated him more like a servant than a son. Every day, he dreamed of escaping their cruel home. His dream came true...but not the way he expected. When cold and domineering CEO Adrian Hale discovers that Leo once saved his life years ago, he appears out of nowhere, announcing that he will be his husband. Leo, too shocked to speak and seeing his escape, can only obey. After marriage, he starts to record his thoughts in a hidden journal. "If he regrets this...I'll leave quietly." But Adrian finds the journal. Instead of anger, he smirks, lifts Leo's chin, and whispers. "Who said I regret marrying you? I like my silent husband just the way he is." And from that moment, Leo's quiet world begins to shatter in the most intoxicating way.

"Colby?" Avery asks, his voice wavering only slightly. I turn to him, cursing at myself for hesitating, if only for a minute. "Yeah?" "Do you have a crush on me?" My heart shatters, but I can't lie. Not to him. Not about this. "Yes, Avery. I've had a crush on you since that day you got drunk and stumbled into my house. Every time I look at you, I can't help wanting to touch you and craving you." I pause, taking in a shuddering breath. "This doesn't have to change anything. You don't --" He snatches my hands. "You wanna touch me, Colby?" His sudden boldness stops me in my tracks. I nod slowly as he nears my face, his cheek brushing mine. He whispers in my ear, a raspy murmur that sends electric shocks through my entire body. "Do it. I fucking dare you." ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Avery Thomas and Colby Beck are best friends; thick as thieves, but polar opposites. Where Avery is energetic and social, Colby is closed off and selects very few people to really know him. Their relationship has always been simply this: best friends. That is, until one drunken night like all of the others; Avery saunters into Colby's house, seeking help in his state. As he assists Avery, Colby realizes that he is beginning to become attracted to him in more ways than best friends should be. *WARNING* Mature sexual scenes and some homophobia.

Morgan is the epitome of rainbows and sunshine. His favourite part of the day is knowing he can spread his positivity to his loved ones. Beyond his crazy stories and fluorescent wardrobe, he's a guy of warmth and comfort. Brooks is going through the toughest time of his life. Whilst running a multi-million pound company and finalising a divorce after finding his husband in bed with someone else, he struggles to keep an optimistic mind for the future. He swears off falling in love again and vows to spend the rest of his life alone. When Brooks desperately needs an assistant to help with his chaotic workload, Morgan comes bounding into his life like a bowling ball wrapped up in Christmas lights. Brooks has never met anyone like Morgan before and has his patience tested wildly on a daily basis. But when Brooks looks into Morgan's vibrant and colourful life, he wonders how different everything would be if he allowed himself to be happy. Especially when his life started becoming a lot brighter since Morgan walked into it. What to expect: - CEO x assistant - grumpy x sunshine - millionaire - mental health rep - cheating ex and trust issues - forced proximity - jealousy/angst (lots of it) - spicy scenes - dual POV

"Pretty boy" Percy Jackson's fatal flaw is loyalty so you can understand his confusion when he falls for a traitor OR Hadrian Allaire would do anything for his best friend. Anything. Including, but not limited to betraying his friends to Gaea. The only problem is- he didn't expect to fall in love. Cœurs brisés (Broken hearts) . . . . .
