When dreams comes true, they don’t always look like you expect

Aaryn
I was living every nerd’s wildest dream — hot tech startup, hot girlfriend — until I walked in on her bent over my business partner’s desk.
Back home nursing my bruised ego, my old best friend Errol gives me a shoulder to cry on and a place to stay. But the unfamiliar gleam in his warm brown eyes makes me think he’s got more than just rekindling our friendship in mind.
I was never into guys — not until a surprising, scorching encounter gives me a taste of the sultry submissiveness beneath Errol’s stoicism. When he challenges me to a high-stakes game, the intimate truths we discover about each other make me realize the bond we share goes deeper than just lust or friendship.
Can I be both the friend Errol needs and the partner he deserves?

Errol
When the best friend I haven’t seen since we were teenagers walks into my dive bar, I’m thrilled. But before long, I’m struggling to hide my feelings as I face a painful reality: The geeky goofball with the sunny smile I fell for years ago is now way, way out of my league.
Even after the lines between us start to blur, I know it’s impossible. For starters, Ran is straight. And he’s so sweet and protective of me, he’d be horrified if he knew how badly I crave punishment and degradation.
But when one wild night reveals a dark ruthlessness under his poised professionalism, I risk our friendship in the hope that Ran could see me as something more.
Will my gamble pay off, or will it end up costing me everything?
