Tired of being reduced to just a pretty face, a renowned actor finds himself facing the biggest challenge of his life. Determined to prove he's more than just a heartthrob, he takes on a risky project and lands in a ruthless off-road competition-where mud, exhaustion, and unexpected dangers are only the beginning.
Far from the spotlight and with no script to follow, he soon realizes that, like the vehicles on the trail, he must adapt to survive. But is he ready to lose control and face the biggest twist of his life?

Playing with Fire
A grumpy/sunshine duo. A motorcycle rally. A slow burn MM romance with sparks, scars, and second chances. Carlos // The thing about fire is, you never notice how close you're standing until it burns. Chuck's that kind of fire-short fuse, sharp tongue, and the kind of stare that pins me in place. He drives me crazy, which would be fine if he didn't also make me laugh, listen, and look twice when no one else does. I told myself helping him plan this rally was just a favor for a friend. Then the late nights started feeling like something else entirely. Chuck // I don't do sunshine. I do engines, late shifts, and keeping my head down. But Carlos has this way of worming into my space, bright and relentless, until I start looking forward to the sound of his laugh more than the roar of my bike. He's everything I don't deserve. He's soft, open, good. And somehow, he's the one thing I can't seem to stay away from. 📖 Part of the Road to Us Collection The Road to Us Collection is a series of interconnected standalone queer romances about friendship, found family, and falling in love against the odds.

The House
A charming roommate. A hopeless crush. A coming-of-age MM romance full of humor, heart, and heat. Liam // I didn't plan on falling for my roommate. I just wanted to survive college without embarrassing myself in front of Morgan-who, for the record, is everything I'm not. He's confident, charming, and somehow even looks good doing laundry. I keep telling myself it's just a crush, that the late-night talks and inside jokes don't mean anything. But every time he smiles at me, it feels less like a phase and more like falling. He's completely out of my depth. Morgan // Liam's chaos shouldn't be my problem, but somehow, it's become my favorite part of the day. He's awkward, loud, and way too easy to care about. I've had flings before, sure, but nothing that's ever felt like this-like coming home to someone who actually sees me. The rules were simple: don't get attached. But with Liam, the line between friendship and something real keeps blurring, and I'm not sure I want to stop it anymore. 📖 Part of The House Collection The House is part of The House Collection, a series of interconnected queer romances about messy friendships, found family, and falling in love when you least expect it.

The Road to Us
A class clown on a motorcycle. A shy librarian with a guarded heart. A slow burn MM romance about love, healing, and belonging. Hudson // Colton rides through life like he's allergic to brakes. Reckless, loud, the kind of beautiful that feels like trouble. I should know better. I've spent years choosing silence over risk, libraries over chaos, certainty over the unknown. But he looks at me like the world isn't something to survive-it's something to live through, messy and fast. Every time he grins, something in me unlearns caution. Maybe I'm finally ready to stop being the safe choice. Colton // Hudson's too careful for his own good, always hiding behind pages and plans while I'm out here chasing wind on two wheels. I never meant to fall for someone who thinks before he breathes, but damn if he doesn't make me want to slow down. He looks at me like I could be something steadier than a storm, and it scares the hell out of me. Because when the road turns rough and old wounds split open, it's not the crash that worries me, it's what happens if he's the one I can't outrun. 📖 Part of the Road to Us Collection The Road to Us Collection is a series of interconnected standalone queer romances about friendship, found family, and falling in love against the odds.

This is the type of love you wish you found in high school but probably know way too well that it only exists as fiction. Today I'm turning my fiction to reality. ❣️•••❣️ Excerpt: Just as I was about to seek shelter under some building's roof, the tires of a car come to a halt, I wonder who might pity the lonely girl walking in the rain. The passenger window rolls down, and I spot the most unexpected person seated behind the wheel. "Get in" comes out his voice, and I must've stood there agape for a few moments because next comes his rhetorical question. "Are you getting in or continuing walking in the rain?" Eyebrows raised expectantly. He sounds annoyed, like he regrets his decision to ever stop and help me. ❣️•••❣️ #5 in cynical #2 in loveandfriendship #1 in opinionated #4 in ihatelife #10 in nerdgirl #10 in HighschoolRomance #26 in GoodGirlBadBoy *contains mature themes. *contains cursing.Complete

Noah Reed Wants The Moon (bxb) ✔️
"I always thought I was the ocean, you know? Always reaching for things I can't have. Always crashing into people who don't want me back. The moon pulls. The ocean follows. Even when it hurts." "You don't have to, Noah. Why can't you stay? Why can't the ocean stay with the shore?" *** Noah Reed has spent years trying to outrun the boy he used to be- the one who froze under his father's fists, the one who kissed a stranger under the stars and watched him disappear. When Noah and his mother escape their violent home and move to Novacrest, he's prepared to rebuild quietly: new school, new friends, a job at a café, and maybe-finally-something like peace. Milo, the sweet, steady football player who keeps showing up for him, feels like exactly that. Until Noah sees him. Eli Blake. Quarterback. Golden boy. Untouchable. And the first boy Noah ever kissed. Eli acts like he doesn't remember him at all. But his eyes say something else-fear, anger, longing, something sharp enough to cut. Thrown together for a biology project, their old summer-camp secret forces its way back, tearing open every wound Noah has tried to bury. And just when Noah's heart begins leaning toward Milo, Eli breaks through his defenses... and kisses him again. Now the past is unraveling, the truth is clawing its way out, and Noah has to choose between the boy who makes him feel safe and the boy who makes him feel seen. Because oceans don't choose what pulls them. But Noah has to- before he breaks apart for good. Book One in the Ocean & Moon series.Complete
