Gift of You
Matthew
Since the death of my wife a year ago, I’ve led a quiet life running a small town book store and narrating audio books on the side. At least it was quiet until a nearly naked man came knocking on my door just two days before Christmas.
Louis is vibrant and brash, but there’s also a loneliness in his eyes that looks suspiciously like the loneliness in my own. And when preparing to narrate a queer romance has me questioning my own sexuality, it’s Louis who’s occupying my new fantasies.
Louis
There’s no bigger reminder of your perma-bachelor status than spending the holidays with your family. Thankfully, an out-of-town wedding becomes the perfect excuse to escape. That is, until I find myself on the doorstep of the broody man living next door to my rental.
All evidence points to Matthew being straight, but when a Christmas confession proves otherwise, I make an offer that soon has me realizing I might be in over my head.
I’m only here for the week, but I’m starting to think I might want forever.
A chance encounter leads to an unforgettable kiss…
TJ

He’s shy and reserved, but I think what he really needs is someone to show him his worth, and I’m determined to be that guy. But just as I get him to truly open up, a once in a lifetime opportunity has me making an impossible choice…
Jimmy
Once upon a time, TJ gave me the confidence to find myself, but life has whittled it away until I don’t even recognize the man I’ve become. But when TJ comes back into my life for a third time, I realize it’s time to make some changes, to become the man I’ve always been meant to be. And hopefully, this time, TJ will stay.
