In every life, in every time, I am always drawn to you.

Whether they are band mates on a cross-country road trip, lovers in a late-night double feature, or ancient warriors bound by an Emperor’s boon, the connection between Darren and Miles is a force of nature. Their love is an anchor; their devotion is a sanctuary.

Joshua Tree: When band leader Miles’s world falls apart, his best friend Darren is the only one who can pick up the pieces. A spontaneous road trip to the desert in a beat-up hippie van turns into a journey of rediscovered longing and the realization that some feelings can’t be buried forever.

Late Night Double Feature: A post-midnight feature party provides the perfect cover for a different kind of performance. In the quiet darkness backstage, Darren and Miles explore the boundaries of their desire, proving that the best stories happen after the credits roll.

The Emperor’s Boon: In a world of ancient honor and armored duty a single command can change everything. When Emperor "Maelius" grants a rare favor, they must navigate the shift from the battlefield to the bedroom, finding peace in a life defined by service and surrender.

Heat level: 5

About the Author

I’m A.E. LeMercier, and I write cozy, high-heat romance for readers who want to explore their wildest fantasies without worrying about toxic drama and non-con squicks. My mission? Making sure everyone feels safe exploring their spicy side. Think: Heavy hurt/comfort, earnest, character-driven plotlines, and the kind of "Found Family" vibes that make you want to move into the book.

A believer in the infinite capacity of the heart, I frequently explore polyamorous and multi-partner dynamics. In my worlds, the measure of love isn't found in exclusivity, but in the profound devotion and trust shared between partners.

What you’ll get from an A.E. LeMercier book:

Spicy & Cozy Vibes: High-heat intimacy and BDSM balanced with the "warm and toasty" comfort of relationship building, aftercare and emotional healing.
Comfort & Healing: Longing and angst that always resolve in a satisfying, heart-warming "Happily Ever After".
Green-flag Heros & Dominants: Kink and power exchange employed by protective partners in love, never in anger.

Whether you're here for Cozy-BDSM, Romantasy, or glamorous contemporary, if you’re obsessed with MM Romance where the protective hero is a total green flag and the feel-good triumphs are just as intense as the heat, you’re in the right place.
