The Last Thing He Needs
Since he was fifteen years old, Tommy O’Shea has managed to keep his younger brothers and sisters fed and out of foster care—without any help from his alcoholic father and drug-addicted stepmother. The last thing he needs is rookie cop Bobby McAlister pushing his way into their lives. But maybe it’s time for Tommy to realize sometimes the last thing you need is the one thing you can’t do without.
The Last Thing He Needs is an M/M contemporary romance full of heat and heart.
Ben & Gavin
Ben Cartwright may have made the biggest mistake of his life when he let go of his younger lover—the love of his life, if he’s being honest. Now he has one goal: get Gavin Van Loen back and figure out what to do from there. When Gavin’s estranged sister turns up, it complicates things further, but that won’t stop Ben and Gavin from falling in love all over again. This time for the right reasons.
Ben & Gavin is an M/M contemporary romance with an established couple, an age gap, second chances, a little laughter, a little heat, a little too much stubbornness, and a lot of tattoos.
Ben & Gavin’s short prequel, The Best Parts, is now included as the prologue in this version of their story. It was previously only available on the author’s blog.
Bonus Material:
All Bets Are Off, a Halloween flash fic for The Last Thing He Needs, previously available on the author’s blog.
Tommy hates Halloween, but this time, he has a good reason.
Everything He Needs, a Christmas story for The Last Thing He Needs. Part of this was available on the author’s blog and part on the author’s Facebook.
Their first Christmas together, wherein Judy knows best, Tommy’s heart grows three sizes, and Bobby is Bobby.
Better Late Than Never
Written from a prompt for a contest winner that, to the author’s knowledge, has never been posted.
The proposal, set during the time skip at the end of The Last Thing He Needs, before the epilogue.
Favorites
A new short story for The Last Thing He Needs.
Bobby just wants to marry Tom. Tommy doesn’t know what the hell he wants. Other than Bobby.
Favorites is a short story with an existential crisis, a meddling family, too many side characters, and a wedding that’s nothing like Tommy pictured but better than he’d hoped for.
As Long As It’s You
Previously only available in the GRL 2015 Swag Omnibus
Tommy and Bobby get tattoos and hang out with Ben. And then make use of their hotel room.
Chapter from the upcoming sequel to The Last Thing He Needs, where Tommy realizes he’s already kind of a father. Took him long enough.
Deleted scene from the upcoming sequel to The Last Thing He Needs.
Tommy and Bobby go to therapy. Tommy hates it, and Bobby, of course, doesn’t. Deleted because the author discovered therapy isn’t a requirement for adopting family, and there’s no way Tommy would go to therapy without being forced into it. (Spoiler alert: Tommy and Bobby adopt the twins in the upcoming book!)
