XavierWhen my wife died five years ago, leaving me alone to raise our three young daughters, only my duty to them and my work as a psychiatrist kept me from losing myself in grief. I did my best to be a good father through the darkest days, but now I can see I’ve been distant and cold. Things need to change. I've pledged to my daughters that I’ll start doing better. Be more involved. Show them what a great dad looks like. If that means soccer practice, violin lessons, and sitting through a dozen dance recitals, then I’m all-in.ZedPliés, pas-de-deux, cheerleading practice, and enough tutus to last a lifetime— how is this my life? I’m a fisherman up in the Bering Sea. In the offseason, I travel through Alaska and, on rare occasions, drop in to see my sister and her four sons in Gaynor Beach, California. This year? She’s laid up with an injury. Suddenly I’m running her dance studio, and I’m a fish waaaay out of water. Then I meet another guy who’s equally uncomfortable. He’s working so hard to be a good dad, and I keep hoping he’ll notice me. Except, when my sister’s healed and fishing season starts, I’m out of here. Right?This gay romance is a slow burn, mid-angst, age-gap, opposites-attract, instalove story with a fisherman who needs the ocean, a counselor who needs therapy, three young girls in need of love, and a found family that’ll change their lives forever.

Cade Scott embodies every rule I’ve never dared to break...Which is comical coming from someone whose ex-husband broke all the rules. But not me. Nope, I stayed in my lane, raising our daughter and supporting him while he chased his dreams–and every woman in a fifty-mile radius. Now I’m a divorced, single mom pushing forty… and starting over completely. Good times!Obviously I’ve sworn off men completely, so of course this would be the time that a man as delicious as Cade Scott should happen to walk into my life. He’s half my age and I can’t even believe I’m about to do this…But when the sexiest rock star you’ve ever laid eyes on promises the kind of passion you’ve only ever read about, the only appropriate answer is yes.And Cade has me screaming it.

She’s strictly off-limits, but that only makes me want her more...When my old friend, Joel, asks me to stay in New Zealand and help his little sister search for a long-lost family heirloom, I’m tempted to say no. Returning home for my father’s funeral has stirred up memories I’d rather forget, and I’m eager to escape back to my luxurious life in Europe.But only I know the location of the treasure she’s hunting, and I owe her family a debt I can’t ignore. Nine years ago, I was the troubled boy who made the mistake of kissing the deacon’s daughter—an innocent kiss that got me banished by her furious father. I never forgot that kiss. Turns out, neither did she.Elora’s all grown up now: stunning, smart, and a hell of a lot tougher. Joel made sure I know she’s still out of bounds, but I’ve never been good at following rules.Ten days alone with her under the southern stars. Ten days to break down her defenses, to seduce her into reliving that forbidden kiss—and maybe more. Well, resisting temptation has never been my style…
