Love...or freedom?
As a youngest son, Jag Martin has eagerly walked a life-long
path toward the priesthood. Then his once-great family
falters under a mountain of debt. Their only
hope—marry Jag off to an appropriately wealthy suitor.
Brace Rivers desperately wants more than just a short fling.
However, his economic and political reality makes finding an
appropriate male partner next to impossible. When the Martin
family offers Jag's hand, it's a dream come true. But his
suspicions mount that the young man is being forced into an
unwanted marriage.
Compassion wins out over loneliness, and Brace offers Jag a
pearl ring valuable enough to both save his family's
fortunes and give him freedom. There's just one thing Brace
wants in return—twenty-four hours together.
Brace can only pray it's long enough to convince Jag that a
life together is worth more than all the pearls in the sea.

One night, no defenses...
Weston Scott is happy with his simple, quiet life in a small
English village. Yet he is haunted by deeply closeted

heart, Weston wears an emerald ring on his hand.
Mark Goudy has a secret of his own, one that drove him to
live far away in London rather than betray his best friend's
trust: He's always been in love with Weston. Now he's back,
but not for a friendly visit. Mark's through denying his
emotions.
And if he can manage to slip that ring off Weston's finger
for one night, he's sure things will change. For both of them.

thinking about.
As an artist in New York City, Calvin Shumacher finally has

him to come back to Illinois—his father's funeral. All
he wants is to bury his dad and hightail it back to New
York, but a sniper at the graveyard puts those plans on
indefinite hold.
So does Matthew Soto. The gorgeous gunman who speaks of
monsters wearing human faces. And predicts there won't be a
body for police to find.
Calvin doesn't know what to think when Matthew claims he
didn't do anything wrong. All he knows is that this man's
haunted eyes seem to pierce right into his soul.
But as each of Matthew's assertions comes true, Calvin
slowly realizes this killer could be the only thing standing
between him and an unspeakable evil...
