A Solitary Man Receives Three Honorable Mentions in the 2016 Rainbow Awards!

A Solitary Man receives three Honorable Mentions in the Rainbow Awards!

"Well-written story dealing with an emotionally charged subject. The authors succeeded in taking the protagonists to their respective emotional edges without spilling over into melodrama."

"A solid mystery well told. The lead characters work well on their own, but the story truly shines and the pace picks up when they come together and combine their forces."


"This was a super fantastic read. It has all the elements I enjoy in a story. Action, Intrigue, Hot Men! The plot went by smoothly, leaving me wanting for more of these two guys and the world that surrounds them. The setting was lifelike, bringing me deep into their world and living what they lived, experiencing their emotions, etc. The characters are people whom I wouldn't mind being friends with. Loved the writing, smooth and deep. Keep at it! Well done, Aisling. You've accomplished something not many stories do, making me a part of your world. And for that, I thank you! I can't help but give this book a perfect score! I'd love to read more, not just from these two characters but from Aisling's other stories as well."

Sparks fly when Chance meets tall, sexy Xav at a Wilmington bar and they have the hottest one-nighter of their lives. But Chance doesn’t do repeats, Xav seems detached, and they go their separate ways without a word. Later, when closeted Assistant District Attorney C. Evan “Chance” Fairchild meets Dare's Landing's newest deputy sheriff, Xavier “Xav” Constantine, Evan isn’t only wary. He’s irritated as hell.

Xavier is a former FBI agent turned deputy sheriff who is hot on the trail of a South American child prostitution ring. Evan is fighting to put an end to rampant cocaine trafficking and chafing under the thumb of an election-hungry boss. When someone tries to kill the eleven-year-old witness who holds the key to both their investigations, they’re forced to work together as they put their lives on the line to protect him. As Chance and Xav collide in the heat of a sweltering North Carolina summer, dodging bullets and chasing bad guys isn’t the only action going on.
