From Bad to Worse

FROM EXCITING AUTHOR OF LGBTQIA ROMANCE GIN VANE

Book one in the Southern Awakenings series

Both detectives know that there' s different kinds of dangerous— the obvious threat you clock on approach, and the one you never see comin' ...

Colt Harkan' s not much of a laughing man, or he might more appreciate the biggest joke of his life. Fresh from his time undercover, that first day at Mason PD finds him partnered with Everett Kane— a man determined to stumble through life and still come up the golden boy.

Makes it all look so easy, talking to people with his sun-bright smile. Everett just... cares. It' s like the man can' t help it.

But even in Mason, Colt sees darkness at the fringes, and catching that State Rodeo case starts two unexpected obsessions: proving Patrick Combs was a murder, and screwing around with Ev in the backseat of their car. Seems to work out fine for them both, when Ev isn' t busy with his women or his wife.

One of these days, Everett' s gonna find the rock bottom he' s digging for, and Colt can' t help but push him along. Because the bosses won' t admit it, but Combs was a murder, and that bigshot Richard Edwards knows something for sure.

Ev would say it makes him a pessimist, but Colt just has that feeling, an ice-sharp truth learned in days spent dodging death. Gettin' honest words from Edwards and Everett both might be what kills Colt yet.
