Pretend for Me by Ian Finn

About Pretend for Me by Ian Finn

Wes:

My boss’s son has been hitting on me at work. I devise the perfect scheme to politely turn him down, by saying I have a boyfriend. Unfortunately, my loud-mouthed cousin happens to overhear me. She says I just have to bring my new boyfriend to the family reunion this weekend. The boss’s son seems skeptical, and says he can’t wait to see photos on her social media accounts.

Okay, so maybe it isn’t the perfect plan after all. Now I have to come up with someone to be my pretend boyfriend. I randomly name my neighbor, Flynn. We have nothing in common, and I don’t even know if he’s gay, but I think he’s hot.

Can we manage to pull off the perfect fake relationship all weekend to save my job? And, perhaps more importantly, can we manage to keep our hands off each other while we share a room, to save our hearts?

Flynn:

Who does my next door neighbor think he is? That he can just ask me to play the role of his boyfriend in front of his rich, uppity family? I’m a blue collar kind of guy, and I don’t even know what we’d talk about all weekend. But he’s cute, in a spoiled rotten kind of way, I’m always down for a challenge, and I need a favor of my own.

When I find out we both play music, things get more interesting than I thought. Perhaps that favor I had in mind can turn a little more physical. I know he’s just using me for his own purposes, so why not use him to satisfy my own raging libido?

There’s just one little problem – in the midst of pretending to be his fake boyfriend, what if I’m falling for him for real?

Pretend for Me is an opposites attract, rags to riches/ blue collar to billionaire, bad boy next door, fake relationship male/male romance. It mixes humor and steam, with everything from family reunion treasure hunts in the woods to sneaking off to have private man on man action in the leaves; a friendly game of tug-of-war to bedroom games involving a very different sort of tugging. In addition to a happy ever after, it also features plenty of unique musical numbers, but no cheating and no cliffhangers. It’s a standalone full-length novel of over 65,000 words in the Morning Madison series, which can be read in any order but are best enjoyed together, and with a big glass of water nearby due to so much heat in addition to all those feels!

Because You Came Along by Ian Finn

About Because You Came Along by Ian Finn

My life goal is simple, and nearly complete: Get the f*ck out of Baytown.
Then Colin’s hot self has to come along and complicate everything.

On my last day of work as a nurse at Baytown ER, a stranger runs in screaming at me, demanding that I treat his daughter for an allergic reaction. Colin may be over the top dramatic, but he’s also super handsome, filthy rich, and a loving, doting single father.

They’re in the middle of a road trip together from Los Angeles, and when Colin hears that’s where I’m heading, he invites me to come along with them on their way home. As we navigate the trip with a sometimes bratty, sometimes darling tween prone to health issues due to severe allergies and grief issues because of the death of her other parent, I start to realize I’m falling for this man and that I want to be a permanent part of this little family.

But am I ready to make such big changes? Giving Colin my body is easy: he’s quite skilled at blowing my mind… and other things…. in the bedroom. But giving him my heart out in the open is a lot more difficult.

Can I completely come out for him and deal with everything that entails, including a grandfather bent on suing for custody and a society still biased against gay co-parents?

Or will I decide that the safety of living a lie in small town Baytown outweighs the freedom of being with the love of my life, wherever our journey may take us?

Because You Came Along is a full-length standalone single father, coming out, small town, road trip, rags to riches, opposites attract, billionaire/commoner gay romance novel that combines humor, heat and heart. It has no cheating, no cliffhangers, and a very happy afterever.

Return for Me by Ian Finn

About Return for Me by Ian Finn

Duncan:

Be manly. Don’t ever let the world think you’re weak, and certainly not that you’re gay. Or that’ll ruin everything.

That was the advice my dear old dad always gave me before he passed away, leaving me in charge of Reed Enterprises. His words have served me well up until this day: I’m one of the richest and youngest CEOs in the country. I work hard and play hard—in secret.

After a long day of work, I go home with men my assistant procures for me. They’re attractive, they let me dominate them, and they sign a Non-Disclosure Agreement so that no one knows my dirty little secrets.

But it’s only once I meet Tyler Lewis by happenstance on the street outside my office building that I realize these one-night trysts can’t give me what I truly desire and have never had– true love and acceptance. He seems familiar, and I fear my strong drive to be near him, but I can’t seem to resist the pull.

Will my dad be right and my whole world come crashing down if I break my own rules and see him again?

Tyler:

I have what you might call a little obsession. I can’t ever get over Duncan Reed, a fellow high school music camp nerd. Back then, we kissed. And then he told me to forget about it, and to never do anything like that again— that it’ll only make everyone pick on us for knowing we’re “weak.”

I listened to him, bulking up my scrawny frame and joining the military. I acted every bit of a strong manly man but now I’m back in Madison trying to get my music career to take off– or at least trying to get a job— and I’m not happy without seeing Duncan again.

I often walk by his fancy office building when I’m out looking for gigs. One of these days, I’m going to go inside and confront him. I know he’s a hotshot CEO who takes charge in the bedroom like he does in the boardroom. But now it’s time he listens to me and lets me call the shots. It’s time he gets down on his knees and makes up for pushing me away long ago.

But is he capable of being true to himself and letting me fulfill the wildest desires of his heart and body? Or will he hurt me again like he did back then?

Return for Me is a second chance, coming out/ out for you, opposites attract, rags to riches, male/male romance. It mixes hot dom/sub action of man-on-man parts in the bedroom with sweet voice/note action of man-on-man musical numbers on stage. It has lots of steam, no cheating, no cliffhangers and a very happy ever after. It’s a standalone full length, 53,000 word novel in the Morning Madison series, which can be read in any order but are best enjoyed together, and with a big glass of water nearby due to so much heat in addition to all those feels!

Because You Came Back: A Baytown Boys Coming Out Male/Male Romance by Ian Finn

About Because You Came Back: A Baytown Boys Coming Out Male/Male Romance by Ian Finn

Who’s that handsome stud behind the wheel?
Fancy seeing such a sight in this small town.

It’s just another service call until I see that the broken-down car on the side of the road is a luxury BMW, which is out of place here in Baytown. And then I about faint when I see that the delicious-looking man inside it is Ashton Falls, my old high school classmate, and the object of my obsession ever since.

Back then, I wanted him bad, but never let on. I was the popular football jock, and he was the nerd who tutored me. I had a reputation to uphold, which included staying closeted.

After graduation, Ashton moved away and became a Silicon Valley tech billionaire. He’s back in Baytown for our ten-year high school reunion. Meanwhile, I stayed here to take care of my mom, and opened a mechanic’s shop. And I’m still in that damn closet, because there’s a stigma around these parts against gay men.

Our worlds are about as night and day as they could get. But soon they collide with a night of passion in which I discover that Ashton is as attracted to me as I was to him, and that he always has been.

He can teach me more than just math now, and he’s as athletic in the bedroom as I was on the field. I want him to stay with me, and in me, for good. But will both of us be willing and able to change our lives enough for that to happen?

And, first things first, after hiding my true identity from fellow Baytown residents for my entire life, will I have the courage to show up at our high school reunion with Ashton on my arm?

Because You Came Back is a full-length standalone coming out, small town, second chance, rags to riches, opposites attract, billionaire/blue collar gay romance novel that combines humor, heat and heart. It has no cheating, no cliffhangers, and a very happy after ever.

It’s Book 1 in the Baytown Boys series. It can be read alone but, due to related characters and settings, is best read with others in the series… and a tall glass of water to cool you off after so much steam.

The Degenerate Opportunity

About The Degenerate Opportunity:

The Degenerate Opportunity is told from the point of view of the anti-hero protagonist Sebastian. He is on a mission that he believes is his destiny. Sebastian is a multi-millionaire with a dark past and a darker future. He sees the present world as dystopian and goes about changing it in his own unique way. His actions are not normal – playing with knives and swords, hanging around a council estate, and seeming to help the homeless. But he has a purpose – he is here to help the world.

The more a person reads the novel, the more addictive it gets and Sebastian draws them in. He is gay, as are the majority of characters in the book, but the story is a move away from erotica or coming out stories which seem to dominate gay literature.

Throughout the book, as the main story unfolds, this complex character narrates in his unique way on so many different topical subjects. He criticizes current twentieth century life which he feels is dictated by the government; everything from commuting, working, clothes, property, dating, immigration, homelessness, reality television, Santa Claus to society itself. Covering numerous cultural phenomena in his own unique way makes the book appealing to everyone as the thriller unfolds.

“THEY let everyone believe that money is the main motivator, the driver of life. That money makes the world go around, that if you had it all your dreams would come true, so you must work to obtain it. Be a good degenerate, go to work and pay your taxes. Then buy goods and services to keep the economy going. This lie, and the belief in it, really gets to me. The number one driver of life, more important than money, what everyone wants above all else, the engineer of the universe is—opportunity.

Societal problems would not exist if the world was fair and THEY did not exert their controls on everyone. However, THEY do, and until I stop them the world will remain disjointed and out of control.”

The Maddest of Men by Ofelia Gränd

About The Maddest of Men by Ofelia Gränd

Is lying to a living polygraph really a good idea?
To prove his loyalty to Cham Hovda, one of the local drug lords, Grayham is willing to do anything—and he does. He helps Cham run his empire by finding out the truth by any possible means. It’s not as hard as it may seem, all he has to do is ask the right questions, and his internal polygraph will tell him if someone is lying or not. And when they lie—well he deals with that too. Life as an inquisitor can get quite lonely, not that Grayham plans on doing anything about it. It would kill him to have to off a lover.
Creed is a retrieving agent on a mission. He is to infiltrate one of Carona’s drug organisations to get to the inquisitor. Rumour states the man with the fiery red curls has supernatural powers; it also says anyone coming close to him disappears. Creed has no idea how he’s going to make it out alive or why his supervisor sent him in without backup. But, when an opening to work as a waiter at one of the drug lord’s parties presents itself Creed sets to work.
In a world where people compensate for the years of bombings and starvation with clinic bought physical perfection a man with crooked teeth and mismatching eyes stands out. Grayham notices the waiter watching him straight away. If he’s there to harm Cham, he’ll deal with it. Creed knows he must get his hands on the inquisitor so when he is invited to the man’s flat he agrees to come even though he knows it might be the last thing he’ll ever do.

Note: This story contains graphic violence, on page death of secondary characters, and sex acts between male adults.
