&‘The Lonely Ones' by Bailey Bradford Marshall's all city, and Rex is all cowboy, so it's no wonder sparks fly when they meet. Marshall Evans never wanted to inherit his grandfather's Thoroughbred horse ranch. He doesn't know much about raising and training racehorses, and he knows even less about the man who left him what he sees as a burden. His grandfather wasn't a nice man at all, and he left the ranch to Marshall more as a fuck you to the one person who did want the ranch, who had tried to buy it, and had put up with years of verbal and at times, physical abuse, only to have his home yanked out from under his feet. Rex Martinez had only ever had one home, and that was the ranch. Now he was about to lose it. Marshall arrives in the small town of Erring, NM, only to be confronted by this silently furious man, and together, they're going to have to work out what to do. The will stipulates that Marshall can't sell the ranch to Rex, because Allen found out Rex was gay. Rex didn't know he knew, but the old man had no idea about Marshall since Marshall hadn't been raised anywhere near him. It's not as simple as selling the ranch, either. Marshall thinks it will be, but no. He can't put Rex out of a home so easily. &‘Racing for Home' by Morticia Knight/STRONG Groom Charlie loves the Piedmont Farms horses—but not nearly as much as the man he can never have, Edward Piedmont. At the age of twenty-two, Charlie has lived at Piedmont Farms—the largest race horse breeding facility on the east coast—for eight years. For five of those years, he's been desperately in love with Albert Piedmont's oldest son, Edward. At one time, he believed Edward's declarations that they'd be together forever. It was a brutal slap in the face when Edward married a local heiress and moved away to live with her on her family estate. Only his love of the horses, including one in particular, has kept him from complete despair. Edward knows that horse groom Charlie must hate him after being abandoned when Edward married Alice, but he'd thought he was doing the right thing at the time. After three years of a sham of a marriage, Alice has found someone who she really wants to marry, and Edward is free to divorce her. Edward moves back to Piedmont, desperate to get Charlie back, even if they would still have to hide their love. Charlie wants to believe that Edward still loves him and that he can believe in him once again. But love between two men in 1912 America is even worse than love between someone of a higher and lower station. Charlie fears that it would never be possible for them to truly have a life together. Edward's father, Albert Piedmont, is also hiding. However, his secrets pertain to the possible loss of his once wildly successful horse breeding farm. When everything begins to rapidly crumble, Edward has to make a desperate move to secure a future for him and Charlie before it's too late. &‘The Secret of Delville Wood' by Helena Maeve A handsome, naked man in his bed is the kind of surprise Silas lives for. The dead body hanging outside his window, not so much. In the shadow of the Great War, three soldiers made a fortune on racetracks either side of the North Sea. Their families thrived with the clandestine passions of youth, wanting for nothing while whole nations suffered the scarcities of peace. By their grace and generosity, Axel, a young man once forced to sell his body, became a champion. Yet the lure of fast money hides many dark deeds and Pia Eckdahl's manor on Lake S&ågtr&äsk is no exception. Hired to cleanse the Swedish socialite's house of evil spirits, Nigerian-born Silas doesn't care
