MATURE READERS ONLY - CONTAINS ADULT CONTENT 
It's the 1990s, and 21-year-old Alan Kirkpatrick (aka Kippy) is starting art school and his new life away from the small town he grew up in where no-one knew he was gay. 
Art school in Glasgow offers plenty of opportunities and his new best friend, Lillian, is determined to introduce him to them. There are parties, night clubs, chance encounters with good-looking bar men and the one older guy Kippy keeps running into who seems determined not to succumb to temptation.
There's also the tragic shadow of the past. Can Kippy see past his one, big secret love or will it define him for ever?
Meanwhile, his cousin Katrina is trying to carve a life out for herself in London. She's got the great career and plenty of friends, but her past continues to haunt her too - in the form of unrequited love, and a man who's always treated her like his annoying kid sister. 
Follow the adventures of Kippy and Katrina as they negotiate love, life and learning to know yourself on the road to growing up.

Fire King (MxM) by Evan_Binley
54 parts Complete
When a historian's obsession with a nineteenth century diary drives him to investigate the mysterious 'Fire King,' the truth turns his life upside down ... and leads him to fall for the one person he knows he can't have. ***** After Ryan McCoy's best friend shows him a two-hundred-year-old diary that was found in her house during a refurbishment, he becomes preoccupied with its contents. His love of history ignites his curiosity about a series of suspicious and implausible events described in the aged manuscript, including a possible homophobic arson attack on a local property. But how much is fact and how much is fiction? Can he unravel the secrets of the book and uncover the truth that has been locked between its pages for two hundred years? Author's Note: I am aware that the language spoken in Ireland two hundred years ago has variations to that spoken in modern times. However, I'm also aware that Wattpad is culturally diverse, and for many readers, English is not their first language. Many people may not be familiar with archaic Irish dialect, which may detract from the enjoyment of the story. Therefore, in an effort to make this story comprehensible to everyone, I have prioritised reader accessibility over historical accuracy with regard to any language that might otherwise be seen as dated. Trigger Warning: This book contains details of a homophobic arson attack. It also contains details of the aftermath of such an event, including the exploration of themes such as PTSD and trauma responses. Those who are sensitive to these topics may like to be aware of this content before reading.

When Jordan Cameron was ten years old, his mother stopped speaking and was never the same again, going from one institution to another and ultimately to a group home. While his father explores the world as a well-renowned geoscientist, Jordan's older brother, Tim, is forced to raise him. Tim, eleven years older than Jordan, never had a normal childhood, living with their schizophrenic mother. Jordan lives in his own world, or so that's what it seems to the average person. No one, not even his brother, has ever given him a chance. That is until Tim's best friend comes along. Jamie Perron has a history of bad relationships, alternating between men and women. This last time he is kicked out by his girlfriend and has nowhere to go so he turns to his best friend, Tim. Jamie only knew Jordan as a child, but never did he think he would develop an unusual relationship with Tim's weird, quiet, and sullen (although cute) nineteen old brother through the course of one exciting and interesting summer.
