Hello Snippetteers! I hope you’re well. ❤
This week I’m snippetting from my upcoming release, Satin Sheets, Kink Awakenings: Book Two. The series follows men who don’t know they’re kinky through their awakening (or Awakinkening as the kid says) and their HEAs!
I’ll drop the blurb and lovely cover below, but first the snippet! This is an introduction to Wes and almost for Eoin too, all in a little over 6 sentences. I’m going over a final edit tomorrow so if you see a comma out of place it’s my fault (and I hope it doesn’t hurt too much :)).
At the thought of Aaron—his best friend since before pre-school—Wes nearly fell headlong into a panic attack, but the outer door opening distracted him. Distractions didn’t always pull him out, often the effect was the exact opposite, ratcheting up his anxiety until he could barely breathe—forget functioning around people. But the therapists had all told him things would get easier and if that was starting to happen, Wes would be nothing but grateful.
It didn’t hurt that the man who walked in, brushing rain from the shoulders of his coat, was handsome as a movie star with wide shoulders and a graceful neck. Wes loved broad shoulders, as long as they weren’t stand-ins for an actual neck. The man’s dark hair looked blood-red in the subdued lighting of the foyer.
Another association Wes pushed away as quickly as it popped into his head.

Satin Sheets, Kink Awakenings: Book Two
How do you know if you’re kinky?
Wes Roberts always thought his need for adventure was only a desire to see the world. After starting a job at a private kink club it becomes obvious he’s not as vanilla as he thought. Less surprising is his attraction to the tall flirty redhead he meets his first night.
Eoin McBride, former Army brat and self-described drifter, relies on his kink and the club that has become his home. Eoin is stunned when the lovely younger man returns his interest. But that’s nothing compared to how he feels when Wes approaches him for guidance in the exploration of his new-found interest in bondage.
If Eoin can stick around he just might be the perfect man to help Wes discover his kink, and maybe even find the love they both crave.
Warnings: this book contains sexually explicit scenes, depictions of the effects of PTSD, descriptions of injuries sustained while in the military, legal drug use, off-page death of a minor character, and the scattering of ashes without a permit.

Intense!
Sounds like Wes is in for an adventure.
I can relate to the PTSD and anxiety described here.
Interesting look at his anxiety issues
Love every letter of the descriptions here, from Wes’s anxiety to the description of the handsome stranger.
