Impromptu

by Carole Cummings

Ailin knew there was something wrong with Garreth the moment his lover arrived with a storm trailing behind him. The man who'd just walked through the front door wasn't his normally bright and brash Garreth, as if he'd been ensorcelled into someone darker and maybe even a little dangerous. But while Ailin finds the difference disconcerting, he's also finding it surprisingly, shockingly erotic.

Impronte d’amore

by M. J. O'Shea N. A. M.

A Austin Lloyd forse manca una laurea, ma è bravissimo a curare gli animali che frequentano il suo salone di toelettatura. In amore non ha fortuna, però, e la sua famiglia vorrebbe che si trovasse un brav’uomo. Austin e il suo golden retriever, Maggie, non potrebbero essere più d’accordo. A causa della sua famiglia complicata e del suo passato difficile, Evan Partridge non è bravo a far avvicinare le persone, ma al suo carlino Dexter piace davvero tanto il proprietario del salone di bellezza per animali. Austin ed Evan non cominciano con il piede giusto, ma il loro rapporto di amicizia si trasforma piano in qualcosa di più. Purtroppo, il carattere riservato di Evan rischia di rovinare la loro relazione, e l’amore che sta sbocciando tra di loro viene quasi distrutto dall’arrivo di sua sorella. Non parlarsi li fa soffrire, ma Evan non sa come continuare a frequentare Austin e al contempo aiutare la sorella: l’unica cosa che sa è che deve provare a farlo. Riconquistare la fiducia di Austin richiederà però parecchio impegno.
