Twenty unanswered questions… but only one matters.When I went on vacation with my boyfriend Alex, I never expected to end up with another man’s lips on mine. My savior, fashion photographer Nino Toussaint, only intended to bring me back to life after a surfing accident nearly ended me. Still, his lips spark a connection that turns my safe world upside down by offering a lifelong friendship worth keeping, even long distance.Bogged down in a slowly suffocating relationship that oversteps my boundaries, I turn to my new friend as a breather. Doubting Nino will accept me as I am, my overthinking head turns to my favorite game, Twenty Questions, until he raises more life-altering questions.As life unravels, ghosts from the past continue waking me up at night and haunting me during the daytime. I’m willing to risk everything for a positive answer to this lingering question…Can Nino be the answer I am truly seeking?Twenty Questions is book 1 in the Foolish Games Series (M/M - Gay Contemporary Romance).Twenty Questions features a wary cinnamon roll with spicy kinks and a French Caribbean fashion photographer with trust issues, but these two are so sweet and hot together that they'll melt your heart. No cheating. No cliffhanger. And a guaranteed happy ending... It's a romance after all!Like my other stories, there's a French flair. This time, you'll get to travel to Bali, the East and West Coast of the US and France. You'll also get a bit of kink between consenting adults.The Foolish Games Series is a contemporary M/M series with interconnected stories that can be read as a standalone. Each book follows a different couple.I suggest the following reading order to better enjoy background stories and Easter eggs:- Seven Minutes In Heaven: prequel to the series (novella); James and Alex's story. An exclusive novella that's only available to my subscribers for now.- Twenty Questions: Book 1; Ash and Nino's story.- This or That: Book 2; Mike and Troy's story.Book 3 is a WIP at the moment. Stay tuned by subscribing to my newsletter or following me on social media.Twenty Questions was previously published as a novella called Lip Service as part as an anthology that's no longer available. Since then, I've expanded it to a full-length rebranded novel with new content, fresh edits, and more swoons moments between Ash and Nino. less

Sometimes, a kiss can knock you out faster than a blow to the head, rendering you unable to think straight. It shouldn’t have happened, but now... all bets are off.A stranger shoved his tongue down my throat. A first! The out-of-place cowboy gave me a taste of my own medicine after I stole a sloppy kiss in a Parisian club. I was out of line. He was unapologetic. My assumed-straight orientation didn't erase how my body ignited under his touch... moreSometimes, a kiss can knock you out faster than a blow to the head, rendering you unable to think straight.
