Riley Hart ist eine Autorin, die ihr Herz auf der Zunge trägt, eine hoffnungslose Romantikerin mit einer tiefen Vorliebe für sexy Geschichten und leidenschaftliche Männer. Sie zeichnet sich darin aus, Erzählungen zu schaffen, die die komplizierten Schwierigkeiten erforschen, in die ihre Charaktere gemeinsam geraten können. Wenn sie nicht gerade schreibt, ist sie höchstwahrscheinlich mit einem guten Buch in der Hand anzutreffen.
In Riley Harts meisterhaft erzählter Liebesgeschichte treffen drei sehr unterschiedliche Männer – Mateo, Josiah und Tristan – aufeinander. Jeder trägt seine eigenen Wunden und Sehnsüchte in sich. Gemeinsam erleben sie einen emotionalen Sturm, den sie sich nie gewünscht hätten.
Josiah Evans, Mateo Sanchez und Tristan Croft. Eine ungewöhnliche, starke Liebe. Allein waren sie einsam und zerbrochene Teile eines bislang unbekannten Ganzen. Gemeinsam sind sie komplett, ganz, zusammengefügt zu einem perfekten Kreis. Während sie daran arbeiten, ihre alten Wunden zu heilen, ihre gemeinsame Liebe und Stärke zu akzeptieren, kämpfen Mateo und Tristan noch immer mit den beinahe übermächtigen Schatten ihrer Vergangenheit. Josiah hält sie zusammen, gibt ihnen die Liebe und Kraft, die sie brauchen, um für ihr Leben gemeinsam zu kämpfen. Doch noch während ihre ungewöhnliche Beziehung ein Gleichgewicht findet, tauchen alte Feinde auf. Nun muss sich zeigen, ob sie an den neuen Herausforderungen letztlich vollends zerbrechen werden, oder ob sie es schaffen, für ihre Liebe zu kämpfen und den Kreis fest zu schließen.
Für andere sieht es so aus, als habe Ben alles im Leben. Geld, Einfluss, Charme und ein fabelhaftes Aussehen. Doch hinter seinem Lächeln und seinem Humor verbirgt er seine Depressionen. Er trinkt zu viel, macht zu viel Party in den Clubs, hat zu viel bedeutungslosen Sex, und nichts davon hilft. Traumatische Erlebnisse aus der Vergangenheit, eine Entführung, und die Tatsache, dass der Mann, den er liebte, ihn nicht zurücklieben konnte, machen ihm zu schaffen. Kurz davor, die Kontrolle zu verlieren, trifft er in einem Club auf Dante. Dante hat seine eigenen inneren Dämonen zu bekämpfen, aber für eine Weile schafft er es, den Nebel aus Bens Gedanken zu vertreiben. Doch die Schatten der Erinnerungen dringen immer weiter vor, auf eine Weise, die Ben zunächst nicht versteht. Und was er letztlich herausfindet, könnte ihn für immer zerstören.
BRODY - A night on the town after a long workweek at my family's distillery should include shots and dancing-not a hot kiss with a handsome stranger. I'm straight ... at least, that's what I figured until I find myself locking lips with a sexy city boy. Now all my circuits are going haywire, and the spark that ignites between us makes me even more curious. Unfortunately, I kissed the one man who's off-limits: Cohen Mitchell-the sole surviving heir to the Mitchell Creek distillery, a rival neighbor my family has feuded with for nearly a hundred years
Mason Alexander thought all he wanted in life was something to call his own—something without the family name attached. He got that when he bought his bar in Blackcreek...but then a hard truth opens his eyes that he’s been lied to his whole life, and he’s tangled amid the family that loves him, a truth that haunts him, and torn between the life he wants for himself and the obligation he feels for his family. Gavin Davis knows a thing or two about living a double life. Being a gay man with strict Christian parents who believe he’s going to Hell, has never been easy. Instead of dealing, Gavin lost himself in his career. Teaching music gives him solace. So when he loses his job at a private school for helping out a gay kid, he feels like he lost more than a job. He lost his identity. Blackcreek is a new start for both of them, two men, loyal to a fault, who both feel obligated to people in their lives. What Mason and Gavin don’t expect to find in each other is the place where they can be real. They know they want each other, it’s the rest of it they can’t figure out. Caught between loyalty, obligation, fear, tragedy and family, Mason and Gavin’s lives threaten to pull them away from each other if they don’t get real, and stop playing pretend, for good.
