Best Mates Don't Kiss (MxM)
A fake kiss with his best friend James was meant to be a harmless stunt to fend off a psychotic ex. But for Chris, it unlocks a door he was never meant to open - feelings he can't explain and questions he is afraid to ask. Determined to protect their friendship, Chris tries to bury his growing attraction. Yet James is hiding secrets far darker than unspoken love - secrets that bind them to a past neither can outrun. As Chris edges closer to the truth, he is forced to confront the horrifying reality: some kisses don't end with love, they end with betrayal, obsession and blood.
