More Than A Friend

Everyone knows you shouldn’t date your best friend’s brother.

Tim Walker is a free man. He’s broken up with his girlfriend and is ready to move on to a new relationship. But the relationship he wants to pursue is fraught with challenges. Firstly, Scott Richardson is a man, and only Tim’s closest friends know he's bisexual. Secondly, everyone knows Scott relishes the single life. And then there’s the big one: Scott is the younger brother of his best friend, Paul.

Scott can’t deny an attraction to his brother’s friend Tim. Lean, fair-haired, and blue-eyed, Tim is hot and hard not to notice—especially since Scott and Tim work together. Too bad he's straight, and too bad Scott worries how his brother Paul would react if he hooked up with his best friend.

Tim and Scott want to see if there’s a chance for more than friendship between them, but neither of them wants to lose Paul. Together, they must find the courage to follow their hearts and find a way to have it all.

More Than A Friend is the second book set in the fictional town of Blue Point. This small town on the coast of Australia features family, strong friend bonds, lots of romance and a dash of spice to keep things interesting.

I love this novella. I'm not a huge fan of novellas but this one was like a cherry on top of a perfect sundae. Tim and Scott had me all sorts of giddy. Sometime novellas or short stories within series' add a certain substance to the world the author created. More Than A Friend did just that. This novella was heartwarming, sweet, and emotional. A terrific addition to this series. It is absolutely a friend to lovers story, which is one of my absolute favorites. You're sure to love this series.

Summary: The forest is withering, and with it, the guardian goddess Inaria's hopes of survival. The loss of the goddess's emerald heart has doomed the Forest of Grenarion, if it cannot be retrieved. Aiyana, a brave fae woman, takes it upon herself to reclaim the heart. If Inaria and the forest are to live, the goddess's luminous heart must be returned to her sacred grove, and there it must stay. This is a deeply personal quest for Aiyana, as she and Inaria have a sapphic soul bond. Long has she avoided it in favour of village life, but now she can't dismiss the feeling that her future and her unclaimed love have been stolen away. Who, really, is this mysterious goddess whose erotic touch she is yet to feel? All she knows of her is devotional prayers and dreams of the nature goddess gazing back at her. Aiyana doesn't know who's stolen the heart, but every year poachers, thieves and bandit gangs grow more brazen. Her village has been attacked before and its small militia readies for the day it will happen again. A Luminous Heart is a story of adventure, magic, and steamy sapphic love. It features two women who will realise their destiny and fight for what matters most – their world and each other.

Summary: To escape an arranged marriage, the king needs a fake fiancé. Stat. King Bastien’s father locked him into an ironclad betrothal contract with Lady Helena Rey when the two of them were only seven years old. Bas and Helena have never been friends—and not only because she marked their first meeting by dropping a frog down his shirt. He’s been unsuccessfully petitioning Parliament to annul the damn contract ever since he took the throne nine years ago. But with the deadline for officially confirming the engagement rapidly approaching, Bas is getting desperate. Enter commoner Nico Pereira, manager of the Royal Crest Vineyards, who nurses a secret crush on the king. He’s at the New Palace to unveil a wine that’s the first joint venture between North and South Abarra. No problem, right? Except Nico has a secret: He has a superpower. Not a very strong superpower, but because powers are a privilege reserved for Royals, it still puts him at risk for arrest and prosecution. Nico can usually mask his limited foresight gift under the guise of being an incredibly efficient administrator. But when King Bastien asks him to be his fake fiancé? Well. Nico never saw that coming. Nothing if not loyal, Nico accepts the faux-posal, although close proximity to Bastien makes him more than a little… uncomfortable, and the increased scrutiny of government officials threatens to expose his illegal ability. Good thing this engagement is temporary, because being the king’s ex will be a lot less onerous than prison or exile. Or, if the attacks from a shadowy conspiracy continue, with being dead. King’s Ex is a 52,000-word M/M superhero rom-com featuring a fake engagement, class differences, improbably pristine clothing, dueling secrets, a guaranteed HEA, and a kitten.
