Not Open Yet

Ethan stopped dreaming the day he lost the man he loved. His Daddy. The coffee shop they planned to open together was just a painful memory of a future that was never meant to be. But grief has a way of making you believe the best parts of life are already behind you.

He’s wrong about that. And when he finally decides to start living again, opening the coffee shop feels like the right first step to do it.
What he doesn’t expect is Kyle.

Mr. Rupert, as Ethan knew him back in high school, has been looking for someone to call his own for longer than he’d like to admit. He’s a natural caretaker with a very particular gift to offer, and Ethan is exactly the kind of broken that Kyle knows how to fix.

Not Open Yet is part of a spinoff of The Lactin Brotherhood world. It has darker edges but the same loving relationships full of strong yet vulnerable men who naturally lactate and the boys who love them. This M/M romance by Della Cain and Aria Grace has heavy themes including depression and past loss of a partner.
