Too Thankful For You

A gorgeous guy showing up on your doorstep unexpectedly should be a dream come true, right? Well, not if it’s your boyfriend’s ex…

A home invasion that killed his parents wrecked Xander's sense of security. After a few rough years, he's finally found happiness with his boyfriend, Greyson, in an old farmhouse north of Boston.

On the weekend before Thanksgiving, Greyson's ex from college shows up uninvited. Reminiscing of glory days is tedious at best. But when the ulterior motive for the reunion is exposed, it fuels Xander’s hidden fears. Could Greyson ever get tired of living with Xander’s anxieties?

Suddenly, he finds himself questioning a lot of things he took for granted and realizes that the biggest threat to happily ever after is not the ex at the doorstep, but the secrets both men have been keeping from each other.

Xander and Greyson have a few years of love and happiness on their side, but will it be enough to hold them together?

Too Thankful for You, a contemporary m/m romance, is the second short story in the “He is the One” series. There’s a soulmate for everyone, but sometimes love needs honesty. Trigger warning: In this story one main character struggles with alcohol addiction.
