Formula Q is the fastest motorsport in the world. Only the highest-performing athletes can make it to the grid. They drive fast, work hard, and play hard, but off-camera, anything goes.

The public knows me as Daisuke Matsuro, aka ‘Kid Dynamo,’ the rookie driver from Japan. What no one knows is how close I was to one other driver on the grid growing up.

As a teenager, Robesy Robespierre was everything to me. He was my best friend, we were closer than brothers, but I pushed him away. Now, we’re neighbors who race against each other in front of the whole world. I want a second chance more than anything, but he hates my guts.

Over time, though, that old familiar spark returns between us. After a series of unthinkable life changes, Robesy and I become closer than ever. Nothing in my world will ever be the same, but I refuse to move on without earning his forgiveness.

I thought my dream was to be a professional Formula Q driver. Now, though, all I want is to drive back to Robesy. He’s my home, this is our race, and everything is on the line.

You're formally admitted to Creelin University, known locally as “Creepin U.” The only things wilder than the monsters prowling around campus are the spicy male-male love stories unfolding between classes. “Dryad, Try Again” is book two, starring a hard-working human, and the tree spirit shifter who never stopped caring about him. Each book is a standalone M/M spicy, spooky romance, but we hope you enroll in them all.

I didn't think I'd ever see my first crush―a human―again after humiliating myself as a sapling of a kid. But now we've both bloomed, and we're going to college together. What's a tree spirit to do?

I never fit in anywhere until I got to CU. Now, I have friends, I help the staff, and I'm acing my studies. No serious relationships for this dryad, not after the disaster of my childhood.

But like a willow in the spring, my past has returned. I knew they were letting in humans at CU, but what are the odds that I would befriend my childhood first kiss?

Tanner has more than a few emotional scars from his youth, not least of which was how we met. He claims he's fine, but I instilled in him a deep-seeded fear of the trees I love. I make it my mission to teach him all about forestry from a first-hand perspective, as well as life living with monsters.

Between the shared laughs and stolen glances, it's entirely possible the sprouts of attraction between us were never uprooted. Spending time with him could be the second chance I never knew I needed. But now that we're not saplings anymore, can I convince him I've turned over a new leaf?

I've had my branches tangled over Tanner for years. With two hearts on the line, it's time for this dryad to try to be the perfect monster for this human.

Returning to my hometown should mean starting fresh. Instead, I'm drawn back to my preteen crush, Natie Shiba―the same dude who can't stand me.

Moving back to Newlantic is my fresh restart. I've got a new production business, a sister who's getting married, and years of regrets to close the door on. The only complication is my job and my sister's wedding both putting me in close quarters with the one and only Natie Shiba.

This dude was my first crush as a preteen, but somewhere along the line he grew to despise me. But I'm not that giant, stuttering teenager anymore, and Natie is all man.

I can ignore these stupid unrequited feelings as we work together. But over time, this town becomes a place I can call home again. After clearing the air, Natie genuinely becomes my friend. Between our meaningful messages and private walks on the beach, I find myself peeling back the layers that make Natie who he is. With the way he looks at me, I'm hopeless to resist opening up as well.

We have a decade of miscommunication and crossed signals to fix. With all the old wounds we need to patch up, it won't be easy to forge this relationship. But winning Natie Shiba's heart after all these years might be worth it.

In the game of love, it's not always about playing your cards right. Sometimes, it's about starting fresh and choosing to redraw your hand.

“Redraw Your Hand” is a male/male adult romantic comedy featuring stuttering teenagers, beachside weddings, romance book chats, and yes, second chances at first crushes while playing board games. Roll the dice with book four of the Single Gamer's Society. Each book can be read as a stand-alone with a HEA. These queer nerds are looking for love, and bluff or fold, they play to win.
