JAMIE
Jamie’s a former child star who’s trying to leave his past behind him. He’s working at a coffee shop and living in a converted closet room while he tries to follow his dream and become a writer..
Silas and Bran are lovers, two Daddies just looking for a boy of their own. They’ve helped a lot of boys in need, nurturing them until they find a daddy of their very own. While helping others out has been fulfilling, they both yearn for a time when the boy they help istheirboy.
Jamie bumping into Bran and spilling coffee everywhere is an inauspicious start to their relationship, but it is a start and Silas and Bran see something in Jamie that calls out to them. He’s certainly a boy in need and Silas believes he just might be the one.
Jamie’s never even heard of Daddies and boys, but he’s drawn to the loving couple and as long as everyone’s okay with it, he’s willing to have a threesome.
Can Silas and Bran show Jamie what he’s missing and convince him that the two of them are exactly what Jamie needs?
CHAPTER ONE
Silas walked into the Funky Bean, looking around for the party he was meeting and grinning when he saw the group of Daddies at two tables, while the boys had pulled extra chairs around a single table, their heads together.
He found himself whistling. He did enjoy these get-togethers, even when he and Bran didn’t have a boy of their own. It was good to have people to talk to who got you.
He gave everyone a wave and went to the counter to put in their order. His lover Bran would be along shortly.
A sweet barista blinked up at him, sherry eyes big as a doe’s. “Good afternoon. What can I get you?”
He felt that gaze in his guts and in his balls. Sexual and Daddy attraction. It was a heady combo. He stared for a moment, taking the boy in. Then he shook himself mentally and placed his order. “Hi there. I’d like a large caramel latte with whip cream and a caramel hot chocolate with whip cream, please.” His Bran didn’t do coffee. Silas liked to tease that was the reason he was grumpy in the morning. However, he didn’t teaseinthe morning because hello—already grumpy.
“Absolutely. What name goes on the order?”
Silas could eat him up.
“Silas. With an s at each end.” It was amazing how many ways people tried to spell it. Especially when he considered it a pretty easy name to get right.
“Silas. And s at each end. Got it. That’s thirteen fifty, please.”
“Morning, Silas!” Christian bebopped up and kissed his cheek. “Can I have another squirt of whip, James? Please?”
“You’re hard on my cream quota, buddy.” But James squirted more cream into Chrissy’s mug.
“Hey, Christian. Are you and the boys having fun?” He’d never seen Chrissy in a bad mood, not since he’d hooked up with Jerusalem. The man was a fantastic Daddy and he loved the hell out of Christian.
“A ball. A total ball. This was a great idea to meet here for a change. Mix things up a little.”
“I’m so glad. I’ll see you there once my coffee is ready.”
“I’ll bring it to you, if you’d like,” the barista offered, and he almost got a smile. Almost.
“That would be very kind, thank you.” He spent another moment admiring the lad. He couldn’t wait to hear what Bran thought of this James. No this Jamie, that felt more right to him than James.
Christian led him over to the table. “Look who I found, Daddy.”
Jerusalem looked over and gave him a grin. “Silas!” Jerusalem got up and gave him a hug. “Where’s your better half?”
“He’ll be here soon.”
“Come and have a seat. Do you want Chrissy to get your coffees?”
“The boy behind the counter is bringing them.” And he didn’t want to miss that. He took a seat next to Jerusalem. There was enough room for Bran to sit next to him when he showed up.
“So how have you been? It feels like it’s been a hundred years since I saw you last.”
“I don’t think it’s been quite that long, but it is true we haven’t been here in a while. We needed a little bit of time to ourselves after saying goodbye to Geoffy.” They’d nursed the boy back to health, taught him to trust again, to live again, then found him his forever Daddy. Some of the boys they took care of were harder to let go than others and while they both knew Geoffy wasn’ttheirs, it had still been wrenching to say goodbye.
