Blurb:
Dom and sub couples Peter and Devon, and Max and
Swan, are joining their lives together. After a week at The Briar Rose, they
know there’s a lot of work to do, and they’re all committed to making sure what
they have together succeeds.
Peter is the easygoing sub, while Max needs
discipline and rules to keep from falling back into bad habits, so both Masters
worry about making sure that each boy gets what he needs without making either
sub feel neglected. It’s a balancing act that winds up taking some fancy footwork
and the stress takes its toll.
As they learn to live and bond together, they
discover things about each other that makes them fall more deeply in love,
helping to cement their relationships.
Then an unexpected attack on Peter and Max threatens
to upset the balance they’ve created, and Swan and Devon must join forces to
give their subs what they need to push through and thrive. Will this stumbling
block break apart their hard-won new family, or will it forge a stronger
foursome?

Excerpt:
Peter
loved Maxie’s house. It was this crazy old Victorian mansion, tons of room,
tons of space. It needed organization and some sense of style, areas for all four
of them—him, Maxie, and their masters, but it had solid bones and he could
definitely see himself living here, fixing it up, and making it theirs. All
four of theirs.
Because
they were going to do it. Move in together. All four of them. Two couples merging.
They
had spent a week at a B&B training for this. He wasn’t even going home
right now. They were going straight to Maxie’s house. Swan’s house. All their
house. Whatever.
Devon
turned around in the front seat and smiled at him and Max. “Almost there. Are
you excited?”
Peter
and Max looked at each other, and then Max nodded. “I am, very much.” If Max
was excited and not worried, then it was good.
Devon’s
smile was warm and happy. “Good, good.”
“Where
will we sleep, Maxie?” They usually used the green suite when they stayed over,
which happened on occasion.
“Your
rooms? Are you going to want those permanently?” Max asked, eyes wide.
“We’re
going to need to talk about that, about how exactly we want everything to
work.” Devon tilted his head. “I’d like to sleep together tonight, if that’s
good with everyone.”
“Our
bed should fit us just fine.” Swan stretched, rolling his shoulders. “Everyone
okay with ordering in for supper?”
“I
could whip us up something, but I have to admit, I’d rather do you guys, not
supper.” Devon’s grin looked rather wicked.
“Master,
we can order Greek. We all like it and it’s super easy to clean up.” Max smiled
at Swan in the rearview.
Peter’s
mind, though, was on the kitchen, on what his master needed in a home kitchen.
“Greek
sounds great. We have this place around the corner,” Swan told Devon.
“I’m
in.”
“I
love Greek food.”
Maxie
grinned at him, red hair wild from riding with the window down. “You should.
It’s El Grec. We used to order from there all the time.”
“Oh,
I’ve heard stories about this place.” Devon chuckled. “I’ve been trying to live
up to Peter’s memories of their Greek potatoes for years.”
“It’s
a good place. Lots of finger foods and they deliver.”
“Finger
foods work really well for Max.” Swan pulled the car up into his and Max’s
driveway.
Peter
took a deep breath. He was going to get to redo this house. Him. It was going
to be their house. He’d been dreaming of the things he could do with this place
ever since Swan and Max had bought it.
Turning off the engine,
Swan turned to the back and smiled. “Welcome home.”

Meet the author:
Often referred to as
"Space Cowboy" and "Gangsta of Love" while still striving
for the moniker of "Maurice," Sean Michael spends his days surfing,
smutting, organizing his immense gourd collection and fantasizing about one day
retiring on a small secluded island peopled entirely by horseshoe crabs. While
collecting vast amounts of vintage gay pulp novels and mood rings, Sean whiles
away the hours between dropping the f-bomb and pursuing the kama sutra by
channeling the long lost spirit of John Wayne and singing along with the
soundtrack to "Chicago."
A long-time writer of
complicated haiku, currently Sean is attempting to learn the advanced arts of
plate spinning and soap carving sex toys.
Barring any of that? He'll
stick with writing his stories, thanks, and rubbing pretty bodies together to
see if they spark.
