A Beautiful Lie by Tyler Robbins
Be Warned: m/m sex, frottage, rimming
Jesse Reagan has had more than his share of
tragedy, and he may have been dealt another blow when, once again, cancer
threatens the sister who raised him. Faced with the possibility of being left
behind, Jesse vows to care for her young son, though he’s not convinced he can.
When Trip Cantrell returns to town, he’s
blindsided the instant he’s reunited with his kid brother’s lifelong friend,
Jesse. His inability to find happiness in the years he’s been gone, suddenly
makes sense. Love’s been waiting at home all along.
Life begins to look promising, except for
the fact that neither have come out of the closet publicly, and that’s not even
their biggest problem. Someone has a secret so shocking they may never find a
way past it.
Will they be accepted in their small Texas
town, or will secrets, lies, and the threat of tragedy destroy everything?
Some small
towns just aren’t meant to hold big secrets.
Excerpt:
Trip could feel the tension radiating from
the other man. Following his instincts, he gripped Jesse’s shoulder and
squeezed. “You’re not alone you know. If you ever want to talk or need help
with anything, let me know.”
Jesse turned his head, shocking the hell out
of Trip by leaning in to where Trip held his shoulder, slightly brushing his
cheek against Trip’s fingers.
Trip tightened his grip, savoring the feel
of Jesse’s skin touching his. Was he imagining it?
Jesse slowly lifted his chin as his green
eyes, darkening by the second, settled on Trip.
Trip’s heart raced, and his hardening cock
pressed against the zipper of his jeans. Was this really happening?
He inched closer, inhaling deep, losing
himself in the aroma of Jesse’s quite memorable cologne. He swallowed hard, his
lips tingling at the thought of Jesse’s mouth on his.
Jesse’s chest rose and fell, his breathing
grew louder by the second, infiltrating Trip’s mind until his own breaths
caught up, matching Jesse’s pants breath for heated breath. Jesse’s eyelids
lowered to half-mast, his desire obvious as fuck.
Trip reacted on instinct alone, no thinking,
just doing. He pulled Jesse closer until their lips were centimeters apart.
Jesse’s exhales warmed Trip’s skin.
The night went silent the instant Jesse’s
soft lips grazed Trip’s.
Seconds felt like hours until Trip engulfed
Jesse’s mouth all together. With hungry sweeps, Trip dove deeper, sucking, and
tangling his tongue with Jesse’s. He cupped the back of Jesse’s neck, and held
on as their mouths warred for dominance over the other.
Trip gasped when Jesse’s wandering hand
discovered his erection through his jeans. “Fuck.”
Hot air poured over Trip’s neck as Jesse’s
kisses blanketed his throat.
“I’ve wanted to do that all night.” Trip
splayed his fingers through Jesse’s silky, black hair, hoping against hope
Jesse would move his mouth lower.
Jesse fumbled with the buttons on Trip’s
shirt, and plucked the first few open. He worked his way across Trip’s chest,
circling Trip’s erect nipples with his warm, wet tongue. “Shit, Jesse.” Trip
struggled to catch his breath.
Everything was so intense, moved so fast, Trip
could hardly tell if it was real.
He leaned Jesse back, seizing the few stolen moments
he hoped were actually happening. His kisses grew heavier, and his need
increased. He’d take it as far as Jesse would let him. He had no choice. Please let this be real.
