Crunch

“I listened to you, years too late.”

Tattoo artist Floyd Turner's faith in justice was destroyed as a rookie cop. After a rough few years, he now runs a tattoo shop downtown. His high school reunion is coming up, and he's dateless, aching for something more. His family is chasing him for a debt long since paid. And then his former patrol partner walks in.

Greyson Peters finally found the healthy outlet he needed as a fitness instructor. Now home, he's slowly healing, but he wants his scars covered. The reminder of his past is too stark. It's hard to be a playboy when his self-confidence keeps taking hits. Worse yet, his family keeps pressuring him to get back into the force.

Both former partners are openly gay now. Why not be each other's fake dates for the reunion? But as their feelings strengthen, can they even hold out until the reunion to admit that they're both afraid of wanting more? And can they open their eyes and see the support all around them?

Crunch is a steamy, stand-alone gay romance novel with a HEA ending and no cliffhanger.
