THE OTHER BOYFRIEND

When the one who’s been tormenting you for months is suddenly the only one you can trust…

A year ago, Jonas was swept off his feet by his handsome older boyfriend, business owner Richard Taft—a virtual prince charming with a big house on the lake, multiple restaurant franchises, and who only has eyes for Jonas. Everything should be perfect.

Except for Jonas’s nemesis: Lee Cross.

Since their boyfriends are brothers, Jonas and Lee spend a lot of time together. But Lee never misses an opportunity to taunt and humiliate Jonas with a passionate hatred that seems to have no cause. When their holiday plans are abruptly canceled due to the brothers leaving on a work emergency, Jonas snatches the opportunity to at last confront the man who has been making his life hell, determined one way or another to get to the bottom of it.

But the truth reveals a far greater mystery than why Lee doesn’t like him. And that Lee might not be his nemesis after all.
