“I think I just fell for my boss’s biggest rival…”
All Cam ever wanted to do was work for his favorite author Madeleine Stevens. But when a harsh review of her latest book is published by her rival Serge Faletti, Cam’s sense of loyalty sends him marching to Serge to demand a retraction.

Things are getting real between Cam and Serge, but Madeleine’s scheming threatens to tear them apart before they have a chance together.

Noah’s an out-and-proud roller derby player, and his team is right in the middle of qualifying for next year’s national competition when he suddenly loses his job–and therefore the work visa that was keeping him in the country.

Unexpected help comes in the form of Jace, his straight best friend and ‘derby husband,’ the guy who always looks out for him on the track. The solution to all of Noah’s problems? Get fake married to Jace, get his green card, and get to play out the rest of the season after all.

Things get messy when Jace begins to realise he may not be as straight as he’s always thought he was. Between a jealous rival, Noah’s ex-boyfriend, and the mother-in-law from hell, Jace comes to realise that he wants more out of this marriage than the chance to head to the national championships.

All he has to do now is summon the courage to tell Noah that. And win the rest of the games in the season. And deal with his new mother-in-law. Simple.

He’s liberal-minded & modern-thinking, but underneath it, all Ben’s shook up when his work colleagues come out. Macho construction workers and gay loving do not go together in his brain. So of course, he can’t stop thinking about it.

Tom is slowly getting over the heartache of his past when he’s swept away by a straight-acting but flirty scaffolder. With enough baggage of his own, should Tom spend time with Ben when he discovers Ben wasn’t acting?

Is it time for Tom to ditch the low paid work, pick up the threads of his life and resume his professional career?

Ben may have always considered himself straight, but his feelings for Tom are very real (so is the lust). How can he tell his family, his friends and his son (about the love not the lust)? Will Ben be forced to choose between the important people in his life? His son and Tom?

Kyle and Justin are just friends, right? Well, friends who have weird superpowers—like Justin turning into a tiger and Kyle being able to control the cold (sort of). But maybe they’re more than friends, too…

Justin doesn’t want to admit to his feelings, especially since Kyle is a little younger than him and seems so vulnerable and damaged.

There’s more at work in their lives than sometimes out-of-control powers or teasing and flirting: there’s a protective and easily annoyed boss, and unexpected danger. Because even out-of-control powers are of use to somebody.

“I’m not into football, but I still play. I’m not into guys, but…”

A hip injury gives Basil an excuse to stay off the football field and sends him to Lucien, a gorgeous physical therapist with an amazing touch. Basil embarrasses himself with an unintended physical reaction on the therapist’s table, but the more they get to talking, the more he genuinely likes the guy. They have a common interest in medicine and helping people, and Basil can get his famous football-player father to help Lucien on an ad project. But Basil hasn’t told Lucien that he’s never met his father, and now that he questions his own sexuality, he’s even more scared to meet him.

“I can’t get involved with my patient.”

Basil isn’t the first Stanford football player to physically respond to Lucien’s therapeutic touch. But he’s the first to have a great conversation with Lucien and offer to accompany him to his one great passion, volunteering at a free clinic at UCSF. Lucien dropped out of UCSF when he lost his previous boyfriend, and he’s not sure whether he can love again, much less study medicine again.

Kyle Kelley is a center fielder with an ego as big as his potential. He’s always been the star of his team, the star of his school, the star of his town. Natural talent mixed with nepotism meant he never had to work hard if he didn’t feel like it.

College is seriously different.

No one’s willing to put up with rookies with bad attitudes, and when Kyle gets his first ever taste of discipline, he discovers a part of himself he never knew existed. A part that craves structure and consequences and good, hard spankings.

While Lev is eager to add the buff bouncer to his list, Austin takes exception to Lev’s bratty attitude. He’s not willing to be one more forgettable conquest. But as Austin schemes to make this an encounter to remember, something unexpected develops: feelings.

Will Austin come to understand why Lev needs to shield himself? And will Lev allow Austin past his longstanding defenses?
