Found at the Library Story Description:
His entire life, Tommy Garrett has dealt with self-doubts. He thought he’d conquered the majority of them until a chance meeting with an author brought his illiteracy to the forefront...again. Growing up with un-diagnosed dyslexia has left Tommy barely able to read, but books are his Nirvana. Now he spends his life creating art dedicated to the love of those “untouchable” items.
Robert McIntyre, Mac, is a best-selling, highly celebrated author. But his point of view has become a little bit too narrow...until Tommy opens his eyes. That chance meeting has changed everything about his world. He has no idea how to find the beautiful man he met, and offended, at the library book sale. But when he does, Tommy’s life is in crisis-mode. It’s the holidays and Mac can’t just standby when Tommy needs help, whether Tommy wants it or not.
Two artistic men. One shared passion for books.
Life is hard, and sometimes when conflict arises you have to write your own plot twist to pull yourself out of the fray.
Excerpt from Found at the Library...
That tight ass,
with high, muscular cheeks, was the first thing Mac saw when he entered the
room in search of the artist. Then the whole, very fine, body turned and
shifted. Mac’s nerves caught fire as he recognized that curly mop of hair. The
look of complete surprise on the man’s face would have been humorous if it
hadn’t precluded his hard tumble to the floor. This was the guy from the book
sale. Tommy.
And he was
naked.
So naked.
Mac knew he
shouldn’t, but he looked. This man had a body that looked so much better than
Mac had ever suspected...long lean muscles that were slightly defined, a nice
dusting of chest hair, and nipples the color of his favorite candy caramels.
Mac just thought insomnia had plagued him before. From now on, every time he
closed his eyes, this vision would fill his mental picture. And wow, what a
vision it was.
Despite being
tall, Tommy’s long legs and limbs complemented his broad shoulders and hard
chest that narrowed to his tapered waist. And there it was... holy cow, his
cock was impressive, even in its completely relaxed state.
Mac tilted his
head. Well, maybe not quite so relaxed as Tommy’s dick began to harden under
Mac’s gaze.
“Hey, perv,” the
man yelled as he tried to cover himself with his hands. “What the hell do you
think you’re doing? Get the hell out of my loft. This is private property.”
Despite his
hands shielding the member, Tommy’s cock hardened more. The sight gave Mac
ideas...ideas he hadn’t had in years. When was the last time he’d had the urge
to bottom?
But as he
glanced up at the red-face of the beautiful man, Mac realized the guy was
right. Damn, he was being a pervert. Mac turned his back to allow Tommy to
untangle his long, muscular legs from his jeans in private.
“Sorry,” Mac
said. “I wasn’t expecting you to be naked, and then I got overwhelmed by the
sight of all that luscious skin of yours. You’re right, that was pervy of me
and I apologize for it, but I’m assuming you’re Thomas Garrett.”
Clothing rustled
behind him.
“Yeah, and who
are you so I can give the right information when I call the police?”
Mac winced. Yeah, this wasn’t the way he wanted to
start off this relationship ...again.
