Snow Place Like LA

Could this summer be hot enough to make the sparks fly again between Angel and Luca?

After Angel and Luca connected on the set of Duke the Halls and had a whirlwind romance in the literal snow globe of Christmas Notch, Vermont, Luca found himself falling in love. Hard. He’d never been one to believe in fate or true love, but one thing was certain: Angel was his person.

He knew it as well as he knew the history of American figure skating. But when Angel left for an art school semester abroad without a word, Luca’s already brittle heart was broken. No one ghosted Luca. Unless he was in a haunted house.

But with the spring semester long over, Angel is back home in Los Angeles for the summer, and unfortunately for Luca, this big town is turning out to be smaller than either of them ever expected.

Seas and Greetings

Sink your teeth into this blazing hot queer enemies-to-lovers romp!

This is Krysta Morton’s last job. She’s done with being a bodyguard. But when Addison Hayes’s manager offers Krysta a ridiculous amount of money to keep the high-maintenance singer-turned-influencer safe on a cruise, Krysta can’t make herself say no.

Addison’s dream of expanding her empire into hotels and cruises is finally within reach. As she curates the passenger experience and oversees the debut run of The Lion and the Lamb, her first attempt at producing a musical and her ode to all things Twilight, security is a must.

With Krysta’s no-nonsense attitude, Addison is certain her newly hired bodyguard loathes her. Then a steamy shore excursion reveals that Krysta’s icy shell is hiding her simmering attraction to Addison. But when Addison starts receiving threatening notes and cast members start dropping like food poisoned flies, this cruise isn’t turning out to be smooth sailing after all.
