About this ebook
Thanks to a lucky win on the Power Ball Lottery, Joel has fulfilled his ambition - an island of his own. All he needs now is to show it to Gray, his best friend and ex-lover, who had shared that childhood dream. But life moves on and people change. So do connections. They can transmute into something wonderful and lasting, but only if both men feel the same.
Chris Quinton
Chris Quinton Chris started creating stories not long after she mastered joined-up writing, somewhat to the bemusement of her parents and her English teachers. But she received plenty of encouragement. Her dad gave her an already old Everest typewriter when she was ten, and it was probably the best gift she'd ever received – until the inventions of the home-computer and the worldwide web. Chris's reading and writing interests range from historical, mystery, and paranormal, to science-fiction and fantasy, writing mostly in the male/male genre. She also writes the occasional male/female novel in the name of Chris Power. She refuses to be pigeon-holed and intends to uphold the long and honourable tradition of the Eccentric Brit to the best of her ability. In her spare time [hah!] she reads, or listens to audio books while quilting or knitting. Over the years she has been a stable lad [briefly] in a local racing stable and stud, a part-time and unpaid amateur archaeologist, a civilian clerk at her local police station and a 15th century re-enactor. She lives in a small and ancient city not far from Stonehenge in the south-west of the United Kingdom, and shares her usually chaotic home with an extended family, three dogs, a Frilled Dragon [lizard], sundry goldfish and tropicals

Falling Again
I. Don’t. Like. Boats.
The words were bitten out with an ice-cold precision that should have warned Joel to back off. But never let it be said that a Considine ever did anything as sensible as taking heed of warnings.
"It’s only a small boat," he coaxed in what he hoped was a persuasive tone.
The size,
Gray Marchant snapped, is inversely related to how much I am not going to get into it.
I’m not asking you to row the fucking Atlantic,
Joel cut in, rapidly losing patience. They’d been friends since first grade, had explored their sexuality with each other in their teens, and had been lovers all through their years at UCLA. When they went their separate ways after graduating, everything had
