Hidden Heat

Alex has been secretly in love with his straight roommate Jordan for two years, watching him, wanting him, burning for him in silence. Jordan doesn't care that his best friend is gay; he barely even registers the longing stares. To him, Alex is just the reliable guy who makes coffee and never says no.
But late nights, shared secrets, too much alcohol, and moments when the apartment feels too small start to chip away at the walls. What begins as harmless teasing and accidental touches slowly turns into something neither of them can ignore. Jordan tells himself it's nothing, just blowing off steam, just curiosity, until the lines blur so completely that "straight" stops meaning anything at all.
A slow-burn, secret, and painfully intense romance about obsession becoming devotion, about a straight boy who swears he's not into guys... until he's only into one. Raw, messy, and unapologetically horny when it needs to be.
