BLURB
Detectives
Mark Ruxsberg and Chris Green are very good at their jobs. Being the
enforcers for God and Day's notorious Atlanta PD Narcotics Task Force
causes the crazy duo to get into more trouble than they can often get out
of. The pair never misses out on an opportunity to drive their
Lieutenants crazy with their dangerous, reckless, and
costly stunts, landing them in the hot seat in front God... often.
Ruxs
and Green love their jobs and they don't mind the very demanding schedule that
leaves them little time for socializing or dating. It was fine with them, they
enjoyed hanging out with each other anyway.
However,
most of the men in their close circle of friends and colleagues are pairing off
and settling down. God has Day, Ro has Johnson, and their Sergeant
Syn has Furious.
For
the past several years, Ruxs has only sought out the advice
and company of one person, his partner and best friend Green, and vice
versa. Both of these alpha males are presumed straight, but neither can
deny the heat that's building in their once 'just friends' relationship.
Excerpt
The table was silent for a moment while they continued
looking at the menus. Ruxs didn’t care that his date was mad. She’d really shit
bricks if she knew that he’d called and asked his partner to crash their date.
This girl was annoying to no end, and a motor-mouth.
“Are you gonna eat, Green?” Ruxs looked at his best
friend.
“I ate earlier.”
“Ate what.”
Green looked up at him and grinned. “Pasta salad.”
“Fuck you. The Greek pasta with that good cheese?” Ruxs
turned to face him, his mouth curling up in a sneer. Green knew that was his
favorite. He’d made it when he wasn’t there, the little fucker.
“Yeah.” Green chuckled softly. “Just order it here.
You’ll like it.”
“But I want a steak.” Ruxs leaned over, his chin
practically on Green’s shoulder, looking down at his menu.
“Order it as a salad, with your meal.” Green shouldered
him back over after stealing a quick look at his fuming date.
The waitress sat down their drinks. Smiling broadly.
“Okay. I know you guys are ready to eat. What’s it going to be?”
Sarah looked smugly at Ruxs before ordering her food.
“I’ll have the prime rib with a Maine lobster tail. And a glass of your most
expensive wine.”
Oh, Ruxs was pissed now. Now she was trying to break
his wallet. Seriously. He puffed his chest out, ready to tell the waitress they
were going Dutch. Another pull on his hair. He turned and frowned at Green.
Fuck that. This little witch was doing this on purpose, knowing she wouldn’t be
seeing him again.
Green shook his head slightly and turned his attention
back to the server. “I’ll just have an order of mozzarella sticks with ranch
dressing.”
Ruxs’ eyes narrowed as he glared at his partner. How
the hell had he gotten into this mess? He guessed it was sort of his fault. He
never should’ve invited Green, but then there was no way he wouldn’t have
shoved a saltshaker in Sarah’s mouth before their date was over.
“Order your food,” Green hissed.
Ruxs turned back and saw the waitress was waiting on
him. “I’ll have a sirloin, medium rare with the Greek pasta salad.”
“Sure thing.” She scribbled in her pad and tucked it in
her smock so she could collect their menus.
“What cheese do you use in your Greek salad?” Green
asked the waitress.
“We use provolone.” She answered quickly.
“Can you use feta cheese please? He doesn’t like
provolone,” Green said and handed over his menu.
“Aww. You two know exactly what the other likes. I wish
my man could order for me like that,” the waitress cooed, giving them a
sparkling look before shuffling off. Green closed his eyes and shook his head
like he possibly just screwed things up for him, but he had no clue. Shit was
fucked before he even got there.

I love this extract the underlying connection, friendship, attraction, fear & denial... I wonder if they will start finishing of each others sentences next, as they already know each others dislikes and likes, which should be a clue they are right for each other?
Thank you for a chance to win an ecopy of this book :)
I've read a few of the excerpts from this book, and this just may be my favorite. All this scene needs is for Ruxs to feed a couple of bites from his plate with Green. ;-)
Thanks for the giveaway, and best of luck with the new release.
