Boiling Point

<p>Ricky:<br /><br />
My double life is crumbling around me. Denying who I am isn’t fair on anyone: the girls I tried so hard to date the guys I’m too afraid to flirt with or my family who don’t know the truth. I’m afraid of coming out to my mom—but if I don’t I’ll remain in fear that she’ll find out from someone else. I’m torn between expectation and truth and I’m not sure I can keep hiding behind a cocky grin.<br /><br />I’m not ready for the gorgeous guy who challenges me in my own diner. His every word turns me on and I’m drawn to him like a moth to flame but if I get so close that anyone finds out we’re both going to end up burned.<br /><br />Cedar:<br /><br />I’m too clumsy to hold onto anything good. Everything I touch breaks and now I’m dependent on my ex’s good graces. He runs our urban gardening charity and his dad pays my rent. I do the dirty work which is all I’m good for: I dig holes and plant seeds. Standing up for myself feels impossible so I start easy. At least it was supposed to be.<br /><br />The cocky cook who couldn’t crisp up my bacon sure crisped up my sausage. Everyone knows closeted guys are a risk and I’m great at scaring people away. But Ricky gives me the strength to be me and I can’t stop falling for him. Not even chipped Brooklyn sidewalks can stop true love blooming.<br /><br /><em>Boiling Point is book three in the Brooklyn Boys series where good men find their happily ever afters in a hectic metropolis. It has an HEA and no cliffhanger. There will be awkward first times cops at the door hiding in thrift store racks a trouble-making bouquet a mama’s boy coming home and an uncontrolled flame.</em></p>
