Six women have been murdered, and Michael is nowhere near knowing who killed them. But he is certain the barman Spyros is involved in some way. If only he can stop thinking with the wrong brain whenever he’s around the man.<br><br>Spyros wishes he wasn’t sexually attracted to the police officer who arrested him for murder. The feeling builds whenever they’re around each other.<br><br>After they’re snowed in at the Derbyshire Dales building, the men find themselves together more than they should. Spyros has no idea if this is a blessing in disguise for him, while Michael toys with the idea of giving in to his attraction is worth it. One’s a suspect; the other’s the law. Not the ideal combination for a perfect relationship. But can they make it work?

Snowed In: Michael and Spyros

That felt like a lie even as Michael told it to himself. He cleared his throat.


“I don’t have a hard-on for him.”


“I didn’t mean the sort of hard-on where you think he’s the killer.”


“Stop it, Lorraine.” Michael pulled himself closer to the desk as someone passed the door. He didn’t want to explain why he was sitting there talking to a female colleague with an erection. “I just think that Spyros is the key to this somehow. He’s not the killer, but he’s playing a part. And I don’t think he knows he’s playing it.”


“If you say so.” Lorraine tapped the open notepad at her elbow. “I’ve still got him on the list of suspects. All the girls were at Level 2 the night before they died, and all of them have been seen on CCTV flirting with him.”


“Gay people can kill as well. And maybe he said it just to throw you off.” Lorraine sighed. “But, sadly, all of his alibis check out, so it wasn’t him.”
