Blurb(s):
Adopted at an early
age by a wealthy family, Jake Davis’s life appears easy. Even in college, he is
blessed with good grades and an apparently clear path to a pro football career.
Good thing his best friend keeps hanging around to keep his head from getting
too swollen.
Zakiya
Incekara has always been...odd. Being fluent in six languages and having a
flair for international cooking should open the world to him, but those skills
leave him isolated.
When Jake sees Zak
for the first time, with water beading down his slender form, something inside
him shifts, and it hungers for Zak. To have him. To claim him. And Jake knows
that whatever it is, it won’t be denied.

Excerpt:
Jake's
hand was rough, his skin dry. Zak loved how his fingers gripped tightly, but
not so much that it hurt. Jake said nothing as they walked along the streets of
the campus. There were few people around, but Zak did not care if everyone was
watching them. He was confused as to his attraction to Jake, but it was
something he could not deny.
The soft jazz music poured from the door of the pub when
Jake pulled it open. Jake's hand on his lower back urged him inside. Zak
sniffed appreciatively at the scent of Cajun spices, no doubt from the
blackened catfish special. His stomach protested, and he heard Jake snicker,
but he could not seem to raise the ire he should. Jake escorted him to a booth
and allowed Zak to sit back against the brushed leather.
“Two dinner specials coming up,” Jake said brightly.
Zak gazed at Jake's hulking form as it moved away, marveling
at the sinewy grace as he dodged patrons and servers. It was odd. He had never
met anyone like Jake. He doubted there was
anyone like Jake. He felt comfortable in his presence. Jake’s size did not
intimidate him. In fact, that made him all the sexier. But his eyes were what
made Zak melt into a puddle of goo. The way they twinkled in the dimmest of
light. When Jake so much as glanced at him, Zak felt he was the sole thing Jake
saw.
Jake turned from the bar, and Zak watched as the bright
smile turn into a sneer. He dropped the tray, the catfish crashing to the
floor, before he stalked to where Zak sat. Jake grabbed a man, probably about
forty, by his throat and pushed him against the wall.
“You don't so much as breathe near him,” Jake snarled.
The man looked cool as he smiled and croaked out. “You are
everything I had heard you would be, and more, my lord.”
