Daniel Vincent Humphrey has never been entirely comfortable. 

His family loves him, but he's very aware that the rest of the world only tolerates his slow, stuttered speech. When a baby girl appears on his doorstep one evening, his carefully constructed life begins to fray at the edges, and he vows to uncover her true identity and return his life to normal. To make matters worse, the ever-charming Thomas Thorne has ingratiated himself into the Humphrey family, leaving Vincent almost permanently off-kilter. And the most unsettling thought of all: perhaps he won't want either to leave.

This is the 2nd book of the Humphrey Chronicles. It will make much more sense if you read Husband Wanted first!

Broken Walls ✔ by greyxry

{MxM} COMPLETED Liam Moonhovan is a single father with a five-year-old child. He fixates on working and raising his child, building walls around himself excluding all but a few people. Pushing people away works 99.9% of the time, but what happens one night when he meets (*cough* sleeps with *cough*) Enzo, who is the 00.1% that doesn't turn away, but instead tries to break down the walls Liam spent years erecting around himself? Can Enzo really break down Liam's walls? and is Liam really capable of managing a love life and a child? I'm terrible at writing descriptions that don't ruin the plot. Anyway, this is kind of a slow-burn.

I have my other book 'Perfectly Normal' to feed my filthy side 😘 Enjoy Start November 2020 - Completed July 21 Cover by the amazing and talented Lael @candlesandwhips ❤️

Husband Wanted (HC #1) by Flo_Writes

Elizbeth Anne Humphrey wants a husband. Her expectations are not outlandish; all she asks is that he be reasonably handsome, reasonably wealthy and completely kind. Her brothers have offered their assistance, and it's given her hope that perhaps there is a man out there who might want her for a wife. But alas, the first man she meets after recommitting to the battle against spinsterhood is reasonably handsome, reasonably naked and completely soaked through and stranded on their front steps. He also has a head-wound and no memory of who he is, but Elizabeth Humphrey has larger mysteries to solve; namely, the mystery of who she might marry.
