    About this ebook

    Will Tristan's nemesis sweep him off his feet?

     

    Tristan knows he's got issues. His latest ex-girlfriend knows it, too. He can't blame her for dumping him—even if she sent her brother to do it. Since he can't stop staring at said brother's package, he figures it's about time to put a label on those issues. He likes guys.

    He heads to the local bookstore with a foolproof plan to find someone to show him what he's been missing. But who should crash his little adventure? Officer Michael Truax once gave Tristan an expensive ticket back in high school for skateboarding without a helmet.

    Michael has been trying to catch Tristan for years...to give him a second ticket. Suddenly faced with "Sparky", all grown up and looking to get laid, Michael's protective instinct kicks in—and presents him with an opportunity that's hard to resist. After all, the kid must know what he's getting into, so why not?

    But when a man with a plan connects with a man with a hunger, the result is nothing short of explosive.

     

    ★★★★★ "This is a fun tale of new love between a newly minted gay guy and a slightly older but not necessarily wiser older guy who just happens to take that whole "protect and serve" thing literally. The writing is entertaining and laugh-out-loud funny in spots while being sweetly sappy in others. There are issues here involving the boys in blue that I've not seen in an MM romance before, and I quite liked the way that it was handled…"  — Hearts on Fire Reviews

     

    ★★★★ "Overall, it was a sweet, sexy read. I would recommend it to readers who love age difference love stories and don't mind a couple who falls hard and fast for each other…." — Reviews by Jessewave

     

    ★★★★ "This was one hot read. I was not expecting this book to be as hot as it was. … As much sex, as there was in the pages of Crossing Borders I felt that the love that Tristan and Michael found was done into a really sweet love story. The sweet and sexy worked well together. …." — The Jeep Diva

      This story was written before same sex marriage was legal and when Borders bookstore was still around, but apart from those small issues, the story holds up pretty well.
