Welcome, lovers of LGBTQ+ books! Huge thank you hugs to everyone who has made it such a fun place to visit. I’ve been looking forward to the support and encouragement in your comments every week–and not only on my own posts!
Today’s snippet is from my WIP (that’s due Monday!), Book 3 in my Buchanan House series set at a queer retreat on the central Oregon coast. We’re in Brandon’s POV today (the love interest :)). Previous snippets can be found here.
Brandon sat at his desk trying to get caught up on paperwork, but not having much luck in forcing his mind on task. His current interior monologue centered on why he’d hidden out at his mom’s on his days off instead of going back to the camp and pursuing Kyle. He and Minnie had both enjoyed the conversation and the cribbage and her garden had needed attention she wasn’t up to giving it anymore, so at the time it hadn’t seemed like hiding out. Hindsight forced him to question his motives.
Why? A hookup is a hookup and that’s all it was, all it was supposed to be, wrap your mind around that, Smith.
Thanks for reading!

Brandon, quit hiding and go for it!
All that it was supposed be, maybe, but it doesn’t sound like that’s really all it was.
Oh, how he knows it’ll be more than a hookup! Smart guy, I like him 😉
It’s so easy to hide when you’re trying to fool yourself. So many tantalizing hints.
Hmm, it sounds like more than just a hook-up to me 😉
Cribbage! Great stuff 🙂
Ah Brandon sounds like you’re kidding yourself here.
The denial is strong in this one.
Ha! I love how he himself thinks of it as an interior monologue. We are each the star of the film of our lives.
Ah, the perils of hindsight XD
Quit hiding and go after Kyle! 🙂
I really enjoyed that–easy to picture what was happening 🙂
