Emmanuel, Duke of Thornton, is handsome, wealthy, and most of all, unmarried. Nicknamed the Duke of Camellias by his admirers, he seems to have the world in his hand, but harbors a secret nobody knows.

Blair Millais, on the other hand, has lost it all. His sister passed away and the short stories he publishes hardly earn enough for him to live on. When Emmanuel Waterhouse invites him over to be the writer of his very own biography with a superfluous salary, it seems too good to be true. Yet soon Blair realizes how society looks upon gay men in Victorian England, and a betrayal which has made Emmanuel unable to love anymore. So when he learns who exactly the Duke of Camellias is, and the reason behind the sadness in his eyes, can he ignore the impending fate that awaits him?

{MxMxMxM} "I'm everything I can't be, and I hate it. But I can't do anything about the situation I'm in, so I'll have to deal with it. " .... Tycho Black was struggling with a few things in his life with no one to save him but himself. He didn't really care though, considering it was easy to block out unwanted things. Whether it was thoughts, physical or emotional pain, or anything else- at the end of the day none of it mattered to him. He didn't care that he could possibly feel some sick attraction to men, even though he had never felt attraction before. He didn't care about going home and being met with nothing but fear. And he certainly didn't care about Alexei Abbots or the other older and mysterious men Alexei was associated with. Alexei in particular, though, was just a little weasel that wouldn't leave his mind. He thought he could block him out like every other person, like every other male that made him think in such a bad way. But somehow, for the first time, he couldn't force himself to forget the expression on the boy's face when his fist collided roughly with his jaw. ~ Alexei Abbots was happy. Really, really happy. He was open, free, and accepted by the two best women he had ever met who completely turned his life around. Not only was he welcomed with open arms by his two mothers, but he was also met with the arms of two men he had a mutual fondness for: Riley Worthright and Xavier Mendoza. He was on top of the world, and his not-so-gentle past wouldn't change that. Neither would Tycho Black, the aggressive bully on campus who seemed to get off on being a homophobic a-hole.

Black Moon Series Book #2 Warning: #Mature #Gay #Office This story is a prequel to I was shooting for the Moon, I Hit Two Stars. I strongly recommend you to go read it before you start this one, but if the "ménage" story doesn't appeal to you, then start with this one. It's up to you! Joshua Pierce, CEO and heir of Pierce Constructions, is a successful business man. He turned what was a very profitable company into an empire that builds luxurious mansions and buildings throughout the USA and is about to expand his activity with a new division dedicated to small luxurious hotels. His favorite pastime? SEX. Sex with a capital S. Joshua is a gay Dominant and spends all his free time with his current Submissive between his playroom and the Black Diamond, a private club that indulges in BDSM and owned by one of his best friends. All this is a game for Joshua. He uses the Subs, enjoys their company for a few weeks or months and once he gets tired, he chooses another one. But at the age of nearly 28, he should start thinking about settling down. What would it take for him to do so? Is he ready to give up on his lifestyle? Certainly not... Liam Reed, aged 20, recently obtained an Associate's degree in Business Administration and he is about to start an internship as an executive assistant in a building company. He shares an apartment with his one and only friend Shannon who is the total opposite to him. Shannon is loud, outgoing and an extrovert. Liam is quiet, shy and introvert. Shannon was a lazy dunce and lives from small jobs. Liam was the nerdy guy, focused on his studies and willing to work hard. Shannon has a very active sex life and he is bisexual. Liam is a virgin, refuses any thoughts of being gay, though he just believes himself asexual. What happens when he gets to meet the Big Boss in rather disastrous circumstances? What is this weird electricity that runs through his body when he briefly locks eyes with the tall man?
Desire and Deceit [bxb] by RubyWooEd
38 parts Ongoing Mature
Alvin Frazier, an illegitimate son recently taken in by his Baron grandfather, is at the very last of the English nobility. He has no dreams or expectations of ever making a suitable match, much less a love match. All he has is his critical outlook on life and his love for painting, and coming from a background of poverty, he sincerely wants nothing more. It only took the most uneventful ball of the season to change his life forever. When the most eligible catch of the ton knocks on his door, asking for his hand, he finds the gentleman just a little bit suspicious. Being a widow of over five years, Duke Presley did not consider himself eager to marry again. That was, until his eyes set upon a certain young man loitering around in a dead-boring ball, stuck to the walls. An enquiry was made, a letter was written, and Lord Presley finds himself at Baron Frazier's doorstep, asking for his grandson's hand in marriage. He expected a ready and most grateful acceptance but is thoroughly shocked to be met with resistance. Not to ever be denied however, he sets out to charm the object of all his desires. And what Lord Presley wants, he gets. And so, begins a tedious and apprehensive period of courtship filled with barely contained lust and heated glances. But what should have been easily the most famous love match of the season, may turn into a farce, especially when one of the two parties is holding a grave secret. Or where Alvin's fate is sealed with a single glance from Lord Presley.
