Sean Stirling isn’t having a good day. Hearing snide comments on a photoshoot, he storms off, not caring that he looks every inch a celebrity throwing a tantrum. Things get worse when he falls on the ice-covered street. As a car comes barreling toward him, there’s nothing he can do to prevent his fate. Luckily, Emerson Willis is there to save the day. Emerson pushes the man from the street, then gets bamboozled into accompanying the stranger to the hospital. After Emerson sees himself on television, he realizes the man he saved is a pop star. Now, Sean is smitten and eager to thank his rescuer. Emerson, whose mind is still spinning, can’t tell what to think about the sudden attention. Can the musician convince Emerson they’re made for each other? Or will Emerson dismiss it all as the passing fancy of a rich and famous man?

Double Act

Sean wrapped his fingers around Emerson’s shaft and gave a small stroke.


Emerson shut his eyes and buried his face into Sean’s neck. He gave himself over to the sensation of Sean grasping him tight.


“I’ve wanted you from the moment I saw you,” Sean said, emphasizing his words with a sharp tug.


Despite himself, Emerson laughed. He raised his chin to look into Sean’s eyes. “The first time you saw me, you couldn’t even think straight.”


Sean shook his head. “You captivated me. Love at first sight.”


Emerson drew in a quick breath, first from Sean’s expertly moving fingers, and second from Sean’s words. Love. No, it was way too soon for that. Emerson ignored the phrase and returned his head to Sean’s neck.


“I want to please you,” Sean continued. His tone, low and breathy, was so different from his normal speaking voice and his singing. How many sides did the man have?


“You do. You are. Sean, you’re amazing.”
