Manhandled Series by August Jones

Gideon York is one of the most famous queer men in the world, but since his very public sex scandal, he’s on the verge of being permanently cancelled.

Should be a cakewalk... moreGideon York is one of the most famous queer men in the world, but since his very public sex scandal, he’s on the verge of being permanently cancelled. Up for three Grammys this year, he needs to get through his six-week European tour without further incident or bad press. That’s where I come in. Call me his security detail, bodyguard, babysitter, or handler—I’ve been hired to keep him within my line of sight and out of trouble until the award ceremony. Should be a cakewalk. But nothing about Gideon or his life is ordinary, and no interaction I have with him feels anything less than charged. He makes me question everything I thought I knew about fame, desire, and sexuality. The more I know him, the more he invades me. The more I let him in, the more I lose myself. Gideon York is no cakewalk. He’s a recipe for disaster. And it turns out—I’m here for it. less

Music is my life, and no one knows the industry better than I do.But I’m also a Townsend and the Townsends made their money off of the city of Los Angeles itself, which is why I’ve also inherited the ownership of a Major League Baseball team—The L.A. Flames.But the team isn’t what I’m known for. I’m best known for one thing, and one thing I manage Gideon York, the most famous pop star in the world.

Drowning in loneliness and misery and alcohol.So when the Flames rookie closing pitcher Adam Haas recognizes me from rehab, I’m quick to shut him down, until I realize he’s one of the only people in the world who knows the real me. Beautiful and vibrant and fighting for his sobriety, Adam enraptures me from day one. But am I making the same mistake I made with Gideon all those years ago? Falling for someone too young for me? Too beautiful? Too promising? Too quickly, my heart wants too much, and my body demands even more.Once again I find myself head over heels for a man I can’t possibly have, and once again I have to hide my love, my heart, my weaknesses behind a wall not even a 108-mile per hour fast ball can penetrate. less

The last place I want to be is snowed in with my arrogant teammate and the complete stranger he’s crushing on.Vince Rossi is everything I hate. Too good looking, too talented, and totally unwilling to give me a pass for making one mistake. He treats me like every other cocky jock did growing up. And the stranger, Elio Basso, is the former porn star who owns the cabin we’re stuck in who looks at Vince like he hung the damn moon.Watching Elio and Vince seduce each other makes me uncomfortable. Jealous. Confused. Agitated. The harsh feelings confuse the crap out of me, but nothing triggers me more than feeling left out. The only problem is—I’m not gay. At least—I don’t think I am, but the passionate way they kiss is just… It’s like everything I’ve always wanted but never let myself have. When Elio and Vince tell me there’s room for one more in bed, I catch fire. As the three of us give in to cabin fever, we burn too hot to remember that fevers, like winning streaks, are meant to break.The Director is a full length MMM standalone romance. The third installment in The Manhandled Series features hate to love, forced proximity, bi-awakening, and scorching heat. (18+) less
