Sweet & Spicy Gay Romance Deals for October 5, 2023

Hotheaded Desmond Vance is a rising star in the world of championship wolf-shifter fighting, a lone omega in a sea of alphas who all want to take him down. Definitely not an environment conducive to meeting the love of his life. A reading from the Moonstar Dating Agency's psychic match service could be what he needs to finally find a mate, but when the astral clues begin to come into focus, Desmond can't believe who they seem to be pointing him toward.

Chasen Broadcote is the top alpha in the league and Desmond's most hated opponent. Born into a dynasty of champion wolf shifters, Chasen has everything Desmond doesn't. But his privilege isn't all that it seems to be, and all that he's worked so hard to achieve hangs in a precarious balance reliant on his continued victories.

When a fight gone awry forces the two rivals to become training partners, Desmond and Chasen discover how thin the line between hatred and desire can become. Can Desmond ignore what he saw written in the stars? Can a sworn enemy really be his fated mate?

His secrets catch up with him, but luckily, protection is in his blood.

Dominic has big shoes to fill. His promotion to the Lead Protection Officer for the king came at a price no one wants to think about. However, it’s something he is very aware of. When his past comes calling, he has to make even more split-second decisions, and he's terrified of the potential consequences. Not for himself, but for those he cares about and protects. Including a certain PA who's never too far from his thoughts.

How can he keep everyone safe when the clock is ticking?

Protecting his Past is a kinky, age gap romance with a handsome, secretive bodyguard and a personal assistant, who thinks he’s too old for love.

If only my feelings were as fake as this "relationship" with my former teammate.

I’ve been the NFL’s “problem child” since my rookie year. If there’s trouble, I’ll find it. But my biggest weakness has always been Houston McRae. We were secretly together in college before it blew up in our faces.

So, when I see him again years later, you’d think I’d know better than to end up in an airport bathroom stall tearing his clothes off. To make matters worse, because of mistakes I’ve made, I find out afterward I’m being traded... to Denver. Where Houston lives. Because of course.

I’m not taking responsibility for the two of us ending up in a fake relationship. That’s all on him, but I can’t pretend I won’t enjoy it. As long as I don’t let myself fall for him again, I’ll be fine, right?

Xander Corey lives simply, sustainably, on the outskirts of Osprey, a small, quaint town in Upstate New York. He’s a librarian when the town’s budget can afford him, a good friend, kind neighbor, and also... a witch. And while that’s of no concern to anyone around him, there are others, non-humans, who have a vested interest in Xander’s family land. Xander knows something dark and dangerous is brewing. He’s just not quite sure what.

And that’s not the only mystery he’s dealing with. The new chief of police is giving him heart palpitations and homicidal thoughts. Xander can’t decide if the gorgeous yet infuriating Lorne MacBain is on his side, or trying to drive him insane. Added to that, the man doesn’t believe in magic, and since that’s who Xander is, their future looks anything but bright.

But Lorne is not the unimaginative, stick-in-the-mud Xander thinks he is. And a rock to anchor him as his life is turning upside down is just the thing Xander needs. Now if only the two of them can stay alive...

When Judah Madden flees his tiny suffocating home town in New Zealand for the dream of international ballet stardom, he never intends coming back. Not to Painted Bay. Not to his family’s struggling mussel farm. Not to his jerk of a brother. Not with his entire life plan in shreds. And certainly not into the tempting arms of Morgan Wipene, the older, ruggedly handsome fisheries officer who seems determined to screw with Judah’s intention to wallow in peace.

But dreams are fickle things. Shatter them and it’s hard to pick up the pieces. Hard to believe. Hard to start again.

And the hardest thing of all? Finding the courage to trust in love and build a new dream where you least expected to find it.

FBI agent Aidan “Irish” Talley had it all until a harrowing car crash left him with a heap of survivor’s guilt and a hole in his heart where his happily ever after used to be. Aiming to fill the void, he returns to work - and to a new partner. Charming, smart, and athletic, Jamie is the last thing Aidan’s bruised heart needs.

Cyber agent Jameson “Whiskey” Walker joined the Bureau three years ago and has pined for Aidan ever since. Working with the Irish expat is a fantasy and a challenge, one Jamie intends to win by earning the surly older agent’s trust and respect.

Except there’s no time for team building when a hack on a high-security biocontainment facility spirals into a larger terrorist threat. With targets on their backs, Aidan and Jamie are forced to trust each other as they’re pushed to the explosive edge. Even then, it may not be enough to save the thousands of lives at stake, including their own.

Where passion is as hot as the ice cream is cold...

Eduardo Mancini is going to be a star of the London stage and screen. Or that was the plan. His alter ego Eddy March hasn't got further than the chorus and a bit part in a TV series. His parents aren't supportive, his agent can’t place his particular skills, and he's finding it hard to hang onto his young dreams. Things go from bad to worse when he's late for an important audition, hasn't got enough money to pay the taxi fare, and is chased across the streets of Soho by the irate driver.

Eddy reaches what he believes is sanctuary - With A Kick, a store where ice creams are blended with alcohol and imagination, and where his friends can help him. But Nuri the taxi driver is persistent in his steady pursuit, above and beyond the money he’s owed.

Despite their very different characters and background, Eddy and Nuri’s relationship goes from a complete unknown to a wary balancing act. There are still mistakes to be made, and hurdles to clear. And both of them have to admit that their life so far hasn’t gone the way they planned.

But maybe being caught by Nuri was just what Eddy needed - both for his job and his heart.

QUINN: Straining my groin is bad enough. It puts my hockey career, my future, but even worse, my dignity on the line. Having to get massages in that area from Vance Landon, one of the team trainers, is mortifying.

It’s impossible to hide my feelings toward him. If my constant blushing and bumbling doesn’t give it away, my body does. It’s getting to the point where I wonder if hockey is even worth the embarrassment. Trying to avoid him only makes him seek me out more. He’s determined to rehab my injury, but all I want is for him to leave me alone.

Or fall for me. One or the other.

VANCE: Ayri Quinn isn’t your typical jock... except for the fact he refuses to admit when he’s injured. I’ve seen more than enough professional sportsmen lose the career they love due to injury, and I’m not having it happen again. Especially not when the guy in question happens to be the sweetest, most awkward, innocent jock I’ve ever met.

When a night out leads to Quinn reinjuring himself, I create a care plan that keeps me hands on, literally. Unfortunately, working with him in close proximity brings all those feelings I’ve been trying to ignore to the surface.

I just need to get him better so he can be back on the ice and out of my bed. Ah, my massage bed. Because if this goes on any longer, I might mean my actual bed. Ayri Quinn is impossible to resist.

Daniel is so overwhelmed with being an undergrad that he's hopeless

The thought of finding someone to shower him with love doesn't even cross his mind. To make matters worse, he's the main target of the college's bully - Blaze. A young man in his early 20s can only withstand so much, so he quits. His stuffie, Mr. Wheely, promises him that a great change is about to come. So, he goes to Bound Bliss, a local BDSM club, where's rescued by the caring and attentive sheriff.

Alex's heart is broken after his terrible experience with his former Little

Even so, he hasn't given up hope. He goes to Bound Bliss without great expectations and stumbles on Daniel, a sweet and shy Little who's so hurt he has a thick shell around himself. After narrowly escaping an abusive Big, he's paranoid that Alex might not be so different. Yet, as the first gifts come, each time they play together, and after they first make love - he knows that the man 15 years his senior is the right one.
