Blurb
Adopted at an early age by a wealthy family, Jake Davis’s life appears
easy. Even in college, he is blessed with good grades and an apparently clear
path to a pro football career. Good thing his best friend keeps hanging around
to keep his head from getting too swollen.
Zakiya Incekara has always been...odd. Being fluent in six
languages and having a flair for international cooking should open the world to
him, but those skills leave him isolated.
When Jake sees Zak for the first time, with water beading down his
slender form, something inside him shifts, and it hungers for Zak. To have him.
To claim him. And Jake knows that whatever it is, it won’t be denied.

Excerpt
Jake's
hand was rough, his skin dry. Zak loved how his fingers gripped tightly, but
not so much that it hurt. Jake said nothing as they walked along the streets of
the campus. There were few people around, but Zak did not care if everyone was
watching them. He was confused as to his attraction to Jake, but it was
something he could not deny.
The soft jazz music poured from the door
of the pub when Jake pulled it open. Jake's hand on his lower back urged him
inside. Zak sniffed appreciatively at the scent of Cajun spices, no doubt from
the blackened catfish special. His stomach protested, and he heard Jake
snicker, but he could not seem to raise the ire he should. Jake escorted him to
a booth and allowed Zak to sit back against the brushed leather.
“Two dinner specials coming up,” Jake
said brightly.
Zak gazed at Jake's hulking form as it
moved away, marveling at the sinewy grace as he dodged patrons and servers. It
was odd. He had never met anyone like Jake. He doubted there was anyone like Jake. He felt
comfortable in his presence. Jake’s size did not intimidate him. In fact, that
made him all the sexier. But his eyes were what made Zak melt into a puddle of
goo. The way they twinkled in the dimmest of light. When Jake so much as
glanced at him, Zak felt he was the sole thing Jake saw.
Jake turned from the bar, and Zak watched
as the bright smile turn into a sneer. He dropped the tray, the catfish
crashing to the floor, before he stalked to where Zak sat. Jake grabbed a man,
probably about forty, by his throat and pushed him against the wall.
“You don't so much as breathe near him,”
Jake snarled.
The man looked cool as he smiled and
croaked out. “You are everything I had heard you would be, and more, my lord.”
