Proof by Contradiction

by Alex W. Wells

First week of an economics degree. Ewan Carrick is eighteen, three days off the train from Lewisham, already certain he's leaving. The halls smell of damp. The grey is non-negotiable. Then Dr Laurence Haldrey walks into a lecture theatre and uncaps a marker. Haldrey is thirty-one. Oxford-trained. Held together by rolled sleeves and rigid self-control. He doesn't bend rules. He doesn't look twice at the boy in the back row who sees the answer before anyone else and refuses to raise his hand. Except he does. And Ewan looks back. Office hours become dangerous. Problem sets become pretexts. And what neither of them can prove on paper could end one career and unmake the other. -- Slow burn. Single POV. UK English. HEA. ~107k words.

Freedom to Me - An M/M Romance

by Sidney Quinn

London native Felix Brixton, rich and sheltered, leaves his old life behind on a whim to pursue his dream of running a tall ship tour boat. A mid-life crisis brings him to the small Southern California town of Carino Bay, where he buys a ship, the Freedom. What Felix doesn’t know is he’s also buying a dark secret and complicated history. Jay Valdez, tattooed and leather-clad, lays eyes on the sweet, buttoned-up new guy in town and is intrigued. He can’t resist the temptation. But Jay has personal demons which may cost him everything he holds dear. Carino Bay, a queer haven full of misfits like him, offers Felix a new start in more ways than one. But he uncovers deep-seated crime and corruption closely tied to the man of his dreams. No matter how intensely their attraction pulls Jay and Felix to each other, the town’s history and their complicated lives threaten to keep them apart.
