Years after messaging his many hookups to tell them he’s officially off the market, Charles Heppel discovers his exes never left that group chat. In fact, all his past booty calls, one-night stands, and friends-with-benefits have become real-life besties.

Welcome to Exes & Happy Endings, a series of interlinked MM romance novels set in Great Britain where, with a little help from a happily married Heppel and his husband, one ex at a time earns his own HEA.


Meet Blake Reid AKA Massive Cannon.

Summer School Ex

I’m not codependent. I just want what I can’t have with my bestie.

I only ever fell in love once. Twice, if my career in the Household Cavalry counts. Losing both taught me to give up on long-term happy endings. That’s why one-off hookups suit me best and explains how I ended up in Charles Heppel’s phone contacts. He gave me the no-strings nickname of Massive Cannon, yet since my regiment galloped off without me, all of Heppel’s other exes think Corporal Codependent suits me better.

The British Army made me the opposite of clingy, so I should reject that label. And I would, if it wasn’t for Adey Hinton, the man I’ve spent the last year with. Not that we’ve been banging—Adey’s too young for me. Plus, he thinks sex is never casual. But his sabbatical from teaching coinciding with my retirement has kept my broken heart beating.

Until now.

You see, Adey has the chance to reboot his vocation at a summer school on a remote Cornish island. Helping him score a six-week spot there seems like a good plan right up until I meet the headteacher in charge. Luke Lawson is stern, mature, and sexy—everything Adey once let slip he finds most attractive. Even worse, getting on that sexy headteacher’s good side could land him a dream teaching gig in New Zealand.

That leaves me with a tough choice.

Retreat before Adey discovers that codependent label might actually fit me. Or help him score that happy ending and break my own heart for a third time.
