Gravity and love work in similar ways. Sometimes they even make people into Satellites of one another.

Robbie and Mark are young Irish musicians, on the brink of massive worldwide success. Robbie is secretly in love with Mark but hides both his feelings and his sexuality to protect their friendship and the band they’ve built together. When Mark begins to suspect that Robbie might be gay, their friendship begins to shift and Mark is forced to confront feelings he never anticipated and question everything he thought he knew about himself.

Spanning more than ten years, the story follows their lives, their rise to fame, and the complicated evolution of their relationship as love, friendship, and ambition become impossible to separate.

I missed my characters so I wrote new stories about Robbie and Mark, frontman and guitarist of a world-famous band, as they balance their relationship that’s both private and public. There’s a bit of humor, some teasing and jokes in the first chapter I wrote, and of course their closeness, as they’re so comfortable with each other, even with cameras and fans catching glimpses of their moments.

I might write more if inspiration strikes.

At a high-stakes Easter swim meet, sunshiney GWU swimmer Austin gradually breaks through the icy rivalry of Georgetown star Petr, turning competition into a steamy romance.

On the eve of her birthday, a single, reckless wish knocks something loose, and a stranger enters their lives to rearrange the furniture of their desire.

What begins as a staged surprise becomes a slow-burning reckoning. As Nora watches the man she loves become someone she's never met, she must decide whether reinvention is an act of love, or a controlled demolition.

The past has a way of catching up with you and it can turn your life upside down. When you haven't faced things completely, but hover in between, it is easy to fall into a complex of lies and half truths.

You may think you know what you want, but life has a habit of throwing a curve ball. Will Alex and Matty come through unscathed or will events prove to be overwhelming?

Whatever the outcome there will always be a sense of doubt.

Avery “Ave” Amerin is a sensitive guy with a messy romantic past, who hits it off with Clint Stafford, a charming tech leader he meets at a work party—even though Ave’s still dealing with baggage from his toxic ex and sometimes gets overwhelmed by his own feelings. [80% smut, 10% humor, 10% drama]

Hi, I’m Skylar. I’m sixteen, gay, and trapped in a high school satire where every internet trope you’ve ever read shows up with glitter and trauma. I’ve got a closeted jock crush, a cheerleader nemesis who smells like body spray and hate, and a best friend who hands out condoms like Tic Tacs. This story has locker room angst, hallway drama, and possibly a car accident that isn’t that serious but still ruins everything. It’s messy, dramatic, and honestly? I wouldn’t have it any other way.

This is a collaboration with Aero1107.

John asked if he could use my main characters from "A Ticklish Thriller" in his story, "My Ticklish Grandsons," and create a backstory for Mikey and his family. I was extremely flattered and eagerly accepted and was even more surprised when he asked if I'd work with him on developing his story. Then that started an idea for a stand alone sequel to Thriller using his characters The Giovanni Clan which became "The Ticklish Brotherhood."
