MalloryThe day Christopher Johnson decided to kill me, I already knew what it was like to die. I had already experienced it once. Having the life leeched from my body, blood stolen from my veins, oxygen pulled from my lungs.When he decided to walk back into my life, I was in the middle of my third resurrection, healing from the loss of my brother when I was still raw from losing him.It wasn't going well.I guess the human heart can only stop so many times, can only take so much damage before it questions whether it's worth it to be revived. My heart is on its last leg, but even that can't stop me from seizing the chance to have him again. Even if it's just for a little while. ChrisWalking away from Mallory Kent is one of the hardest things I've ever done.The devastation that marred her features that night still haunts me. Refusing to let me forget that the knife I plunged into her heart to protect her had pierced mine as well. Dogging my steps as walked through my miserable life without her.Coming back had always been a part of the plan. Even as I gave in to the forces hellbent on tearing us apart, I knew we weren't done. I just didn't know we'd come back together like this: under a cloud of unexpected grief with the pain of our stolen future lingering just beneath the surface.This time together was never supposed to happen. I hadn't accounted for it when I started working to clear a path back to her, but I'm thankful for it. For the opportunity to comfort her in a way no one else can. For the chance to hold her until the demons in my life force me to walk away again.

It's a shame he is about to run, not walk, right past his own boundaries. Tay is the Dom's Dom, the experienced Head Trainer at Delphic. He is the man the Dominants look up to, and the Submissives drool over. But Tay has secrets. He's banned from contract work, and he's in therapy with Dr. Cashel. Cash never put a professional foot wrong until he let Tay under his skin. Tay never felt such desire as when he realized Cash has never had a man, let alone one like him. They are colleagues. They are therapist and patient. They are an expert Dominant, who was born into a Leather family, and a theoretical Submissive, who has never even been kissed. They are crossing every single boundary there is, and it could ruin both of them, in every way possible. PAID TO WATCH is part of the Delphic Agency Series of mm romances, and features a closet submissive, a leather Dom who yearns for a true love to call his own, and plenty of steamy kink exploration as they go from colleagues to lovers and beyond in search of the HEA they deserve.

Un mondo al di là dell¿immaginazione e un mondo al di qua dell¿immaginazione: due ragazzi, stesse sembianze, stesso nome (Leonardo), due mondi diversi. Ma il mondo al di qua dell¿immaginazione ha necessità del ragazzo del mondo al di là dell¿immaginazione per garantire la vittoria delle forze del Bene sulle forze del Male. Leonardo e Leo cresceranno insieme, acquisiranno coraggio e fiducia in loro stessi, salveranno Fantastica dalle forze del Male ma poi ognuno continuerà la propria strada, nel proprio mondo. Un padre scrive un libro per il figlio (sì, proprio la storia di Leonardo e Leo), che sarà per lui uno stimolo per uscire dalla malattia, un ragazzo gravemente malato che passa le sue giornate dentro un ospedale¿ e un figlio scrive un diario per il padre, per fagli capire che esiste la malattia fisica ma esiste anche la sofferenza che si prova nel non poter crescere liberamente. Attorno a questi protagonisti ruotano una serie di altri personaggi, ognuno a rappresentare un modo diverso di vivere, un modo diverso di essere, ognuno con un obiettivo da raggiungere a completamento della propria crescita interiore.
