Matthew Aldridge has a problem. Correction: he has a lot of problems.
In his last year of college, his usually impeccable grade point average is off to a rough start. He doesn't know the last time he ate a vegetable and claims his dishwasher is broken just because him and his roommate don't want to empty it. All of his friends are getting married or having babies, while he uses any time he isn't cramming at the library to get drunk at the bars and stumble home. His grandmother would beat him with her rosary if she knew the sorts of things (or types of people) he got into there.
And that's where the real problem starts. Premarital sex? Unheard of in his family. Getting wasted? Absolutely not. So on top of those two transgressions, Matthew's absolutely sure, even despite his age, that if his family knew he spent half his nights kissing boys, they'd try to send him away "to be saved". Again.
He struggles with what his family preaches is right but giving into the temptations is so much fun.
[This is a spin-off from my Sparked & Stung series featuring Matthew Aldridge. You do not need to read those books to read this.]

Be My Escape [BoyxBoy]
Michael and Liam are madly in love. Or so they think. How madly in love could you be when you've only just started talking? Liam has always been a helpful person. In fact, his self proclaimed job use to be helping people get with each other. But he was always the one to be left unhappy in the end. As Liam breaks away and starts to go into new and dangerous territory, will he be able to save his heart? Or will he give away the key to his heart too easily? Michael has a over sensitive body. And sometimes that makes it hard to separate feelings correctly. And with every string of boys, he only covers his dark pass even more. He thought everything was perfect, until Liam. Why is he trying to figure Michael out? And why is his touch so good? Lust drives them. Fighting makes them understand. Running makes them worry. And crying brings them closer. What were they thinking, to get involved with a silly thing called: L O V E. (A/N: This actually a little bit of a side story off of my other two books "I HATE YOU" and it's sequel "Hey, I STILL HATE YOU" and you are welcome to read that before this but it isn't necessary! Enjoy.)Complete
For Him, I Stayed
Title: For Him, I Stayed Written by Sean - Photo not mine! Credits to the rightful owner! (This was originally named as "Love Her, Not Me") "He searched the world for love, never seeing it with him all along." Ray and Matthew met as freshmen in high school, instantly bonding over shared interests and a quiet understanding. Ray, the younger of two siblings, lived under the shadow of his older brother, Skyler, a well-liked, confident student who later pursued a medical career and married his high school sweetheart, Avilian. Matthew, in contrast, was an only child but had a sprawling network of cousins who filled his life with constant chaos and fun. During high school, Ray struggled with self-esteem. He was bullied for his appearance and withdrawn, relying on Matthew as a pillar of support. Despite Ray's insecurities, his gentle humor and genuine nature made him shine in Matthew's eyes, even if he didn't initially recognize the depth of Ray's affection. As they navigated high school, Ray secretly fell in love with Matthew, confessing his feelings not once, but three times, each time hoping for a different answer. Each rejection stung more deeply, eventually leading Ray to withdraw, hurt yet unable to forget. Now in their third year of college, Ray has grown from the insecure, pimpled high schooler into a confident young man with a striking new appearance. Meanwhile, Matthew, who once viewed Ray as just his best friend, finds himself missing the old closeness and wondering if he might have taken his friend's presence for granted. Caught between old heartbreak and new realizations, the pair stands on the edge of a shifting friendship that may yet bloom into something unexpected.

Triple Threat
Please note: this is a story about a poly triad, three folks who fall in love - it is absolutely not a love triangle jealousy story (except literally, as they are all in love in a triangular fashion). James is a teacher at the local evening school, teaching creative writing as he tries to get his own writing published. Robbie is a student in the class, starting afresh after abandoning their family's Big Plan for their life. The two haven't seen each other in eight years, not since the night of their school prom where Robbie rejected James' heartfelt admission of love. Robbie is now out and proud as a non-binary bisexual person, and ready to see if those feelings have persisted. Tension begins to bubble as James gets flustered over Robbie's new life, while Robbie tries to cheekily make up for past mistakes. There's just one problem; James' long-term partner, Fraser. Robbie curses their bad luck - of all the men in the world, James had to pick an attractive, charming, attentive, wonderful boyfriend. But when Fraser indicates that he's open to something a little more *open*, Robbie and James are intrigued. Neither of them had ever considered something outside monogamy, but it certainly sounds interesting... Will Robbie be able to clear their head and figure out their feelings for the two? Will James be able to let Robbie back into his life? Will Fraser welcome Robbie fully into their relationship? Join these three adorable cinnamon rolls as they navigate a beautiful poly relationship together. MATURE BOOK: this book is SPICY and by spicy, I mean I whacked an entire spice rack into it. There will be SO much spice.Complete

A Breath of Fresh Air
For 17-year-old high school senior Evan Brooks, life could be better. He's a social outcast at school, stuck in a rural Alabama small town he never wanted to move to, and he's got a secret he's desperately trying to keep: he's gay. When he embarks on a weekend vacation to the Florida panhandle with his hypermasculine brother, homophobic stepdad, and aloof mother, none of them can anticipate how much a simple 3-day trip will change their lives forever... **2025 Update: Hi! This was my very first attempt at crafting an entire story from scratch all the way back in 2020, and I'd like to think my writing has since improved. I've started working on a big rewrite project, so stay tuned for a newly enhanced story! Please visit the last chapter (2025 Rewrite Info/Updates) for more details. In the meantime, the original story will remain here in full - just know that I know some parts of it are cringe lol. I hope you still enjoy it though! :) Some details have changed between this story and Road to Rockdale in anticipation of the rewrite, so please excuse some inconsistencies if you're coming from that story. I promise everything will line up eventually! CONTENT WARNING/TRIGGERS: Please note that this story contains very strong language at times and some mature themes. Some characters face emotional abuse. There is also a small amount of physical abuse, but it is mostly implied apart from one scene which is not extremely graphic. Some characters are homophobic, and a slur is used a handful of times.Complete
His eyes of euphoria
* TRIGGER WARNING* there may or may not be parts of this book that people may find upsetting. It talks about mental illness. Also it talks about religion so if any of these things may trigger you then I recommenced not reading this.

How will he cope with a rising taste for a blonde boy who managed the earth on his fingertips like crushed berries. Will he learn to love himself? Or will he allow his doubt to control him and his sprouting relationship? "Taste me in crimson so that when we taste no more, when age will turn our buds sour and memories hazy, that I have hope to scour my letterbox and find you wrapped pristine silk, next to an image of June. Within your eyes, euphoric." Acknowledgements 1# slice of life 15/01/21 23# closeted 15/01/21Complete![Even In Pieces [bxb]](https://img.wattpad.com/cover/253598949-256-k950131.jpg)
Even In Pieces [bxb]
-KIND OF MATURE- "I wouldn't fuck you if you paid me." Well, at least my question is answered. He can get more punchable. We glare at each other, I am surprised neither of us have raised our fists yet. It wouldn't be the first time. "Who says you'll be the one fucking?" I snap back. _______________________________________ Zachary Alvarez has always hidden his broken parts behind his charm, sarcasm and arrogance. He is a complete asshole to most, especially one man in particular who he occasionally wants to lick all over or shoot in the head (He isn't picky). Nothing in Zach's life is constant. All he has ever cared for is himself since nobody else did. A lot of drinks, one-night stands, relationships that he never put effort into and people always leaving, that's all he has ever known. And Everett absolutely hates Zach's guts and hates how his smirk makes him feel triggered. Everett has always been this or that for people, always an image. Most times he doesn't even care, but sometimes it gets irritating. But somewhere both Everett and Zach starts to see each other. All that hate gets a bit too exhilarating. In so many ways... _________________________________________ If you guys are looking for an enemies to lovers with a lot of sexual tension... #1st in lovers #1st in homosexual #1st in bxb #1st in university #2nd in drama #4th in Lgbt #8th in mxm #19th in romanceComplete
Plan Of Seduction
"I hate you - so much Tripp." More confusion because, once more, wasn't this a good thing? "Why did you have to say that? What if," A little quieter, just above a whisper. "What if we mess up our friendship?" "But what if we don't?" "You don't know that," I bumped his nose with my finger. "And neither do you. So, why don't we give it a shot?" He bit down on his bottom lip, hesitation and worry filling his gaze. __ This is literally a story that follows the plot of two best friends realizing their feelings for each other, yes, I know, very cliche, but I enjoyed writing it. There will be mature LGBT+ content, so if you don't want to read those chapters or this story, skip it.
