Summary: I’m known as Lace around campus at the performing arts college I attend because I use lacy ribbons sometimes in my dance routines. I’d like to believe I’m unforgettable because I’m highly skilled in many forms of performance art, but I have a feeling it also has something to do with what I can do with my body. What do I mean? I’m very . . . bendy – a contortionist of sorts, which comes from many years of training and being able to control every muscle in my body. I began as a kid doing classical ballet then moved on to more contemporary dance like swinging on poles and my favorite, aerial rope performance. My goal after I complete college is to join a major dance trope and share my fluid grace with audiences around the world. The unexpected bonus to being this flexible? I bring self-pleasuring to a whole new level – and I do – often. My roommate, Brick learned this when he walked in on me the first day he stepped into our dorm room. Since then, I’ve been awakening things inside of him he hadn’t realized he craved – until me. Now we can’t keep our hands off of each other and we’ve created a whole new meaning behind pole dancing. Bending For Him, is Book 5 in the Illicit Heat Series. This is an erotic tale of approximately 12k words, low angst, an HEA, and no cliffhangers.

Summary: Joshua and Colin built Camp Pride—a place where LGBTQ+ youth could breathe, belong, and finally be seen. But not every child can make it to camp. In small towns across Virginia, there are kids still waiting. Still hiding. Still wondering if anyone will ever come looking for them. So Joshua does what he’s always done when the world falls short. He builds a way forward. With his Outreach Playbook in hand—a blueprint born of experience, compassion, and hard-earned truth—he and Colin take Camp Pride on the road. Alongside David and Nate Gardener-Reese, Trent Peterson, and Alex Mayfield, they set out across sixteen days and six rural towns, carrying more than supplies. They carry hope. But what they find will test all of them. Young people holding their breath. Parents caught between fear and love. Communities where a single conversation can feel like a line drawn in the sand. And not everyone wants them there. There are still voices raised in anger. Doors that close before they can knock. Moments where showing up doesn’t just take courage—it carries risk. And beneath it all, a quiet, unrelenting question: Can you change a life… just by showing up? For Colin, the journey becomes something else entirely. Because he’s learned—again and again—that love doesn’t always save people. And this time, he may have to face what that really means. Some journeys are measured in miles. This one is measured in courage… in connection… in the fragile, stubborn belief that someone, somewhere, will finally say: You matter. We hear you. Hold on. We're coming!
