About Safe House
It’s never too late for a new beginning…. Kyle Shimoda is an asshole magnet, has been for as long as he can remember. At forty-seven, he doesn’t see much chance for improving his luck in love. His friends who run Buchanan House, a gay retreat on the central Oregon coast, know he wants to find “someone nice” to settle down with, and they set him up with Officer Brandon Smith. Kyle has a turbulent history with law enforcement, but he can’t deny his attraction to the buff cop.
Brandon has been a police officer in Lincoln City almost since the day he graduated from high school over thirty years ago. He’s cultivated the facade of a serious, disciplined law enforcement officer, but beneath his overdeveloped chest beats the soft heart of a drama queen. A cancer scare shifts Bran’s focus from finding a serious relationship to having as much sex as he can—putting his goals squarely at odds with Kyle’s. If he can’t find the courage to be honest about his feelings for Kyle, the happiness they’ve both been searching for could slip through their fingers.
Meet Brandon in the excerpt below.
Chapter Two
This isn’t getting me to work any
faster. At least work will be a
distraction.
He hurried home and changed into
his uniform. His quick spot check in the bathroom mirror turned into a
lingering appraisal. Brandon
ran an open hand over his chest, not to smooth the impeccable fabric of his
uniform shirt, but to reassure himself that nothing had changed. He grimaced at
his reflection, thinking a little less gray and a little more brown in his hair
might be a nice change.
During that forty-seven minutes, he
would have been happy to trade his broad shoulders for a smaller frame.
Since I’m making empty wishes, I
might as well make one for a better-looking face. A face that could attract a
handsome young guy like Kyle instead of scaring him half to death.
Bran’s stomach roiled at his own
thoughts, and he resolved to not even think the word death again
until—unless—he had to. He was tempted to forgo shaving the sandy brown stubble
from his face but fell back on the habit, hoping for the comfort a routine
could provide, and reached for his electric razor.
Everything seemed to be happening
so fast. Less than a week ago he’d gone in for his yearly physical, and now he
was waiting for the call that would tell him whether he needed to make another
appointment for that week or next year. In the interim he’d been squeezed into
a tube and had a biopsy. And relived the worst time in his life over and over,
the time when he’d learned about his father’s diagnosis.
About Charley Descoteaux
Charley Descoteaux has always heard voices. She was relieved to learn they were fictional characters, and started writing when they insisted daydreaming just wasn’t good enough. In exchange, they’ve agreed to let her sleep once in a while. Charley grew up in the San Francisco Bay Area during a drought, and found her true home in the soggy Pacific Northwest. She has survived earthquakes, tornadoes, and floods, but couldn’t make it through one day without stories.
Yes, but it wasn't great. Let's put it this way. A big wave was able to knock it over. Thanks for the excerpt!
