Summary: Mark has always been a Dominant. The Top in every relationship. Just ask Leon, his very ex-boyfriend, because that’s what he told Mark he was. Okay, Mark’s only had the one relationship so the ‘always’ was a reach, but it didn’t matter. It was more than over with now, and Leon was long gone. That is until Leon felt it necessary to show off his new boyfriend, a gorgeous mountain called Rogan, by evidently telling him that Mark was stalking, bullying, badgering, harassing and get this, abusing him. “He’ll kill you, Mark, because he loves me and wants to protect me.” From whom? Skinny little Mark? What a joke. Because all Mark has ever done was exactly what Leon told him to do and that now included staying as far away from Leon as he could get. But how can he do that when Leon is hell-bent on proving all the lies he’s told Rogan about Mark were true, and by any means possible except the actual truth? Thankfully, it seems Rogan’s not quite as clueless about Leon’s wild imagination as Mark has always been. In fact, the big, beautiful man has come to Mark’s rescue a couple of times and has made it clear, Leon and he are not a thing. At least, not anymore. Which is good since Mark is going to need Rogan’s help. Mainly because something else is out to get Mark. Something not Leon. This something isn’t even human…

Summary: Brock is content with his successful construction business in the small town of Prairie Brook. The local dating pool for a gay man is basically a puddle, but he’s mostly happy with his life. However, Brock’s easy, somewhat lonely life is in for a shake-up when he comes face-to-face with a man he’s never quite forgotten. Calder ran from Prairie Brook several years ago. At the time, he convinced himself he was running toward a fabulous job and bright future. Now, after wasting years of his life at a job that went nowhere—and spending years getting to know himself better—Calder can admit he’d been running from unwanted feelings and a man he never truly pushed from his mind. Brock and Calder both bid on a job at the rumored-to-be-haunted Prairie Brook Mansion only to find themselves smack dab in the middle of a tragic, romantic ghost story and their own second chance romance. *The Ghost Who Saved Us is a steamy, second chance, M/M Halloween romance with a pain in the ass ghost, a basement that defines creepy, and a satisfying love story—or two.*
