Brookstone: Discoveries of the Present

Brookstone: Discoveries of the Present is a slow-burn M/M romance packed with heat, heart, and emotional vulnerability.

Brock Curry isn’t looking for love, just a fresh start. A rugged real estate developer from Atlanta with a bruised heart and a reputation for no-strings encounters, he arrives in the small town of Brookstone, Alabama to transform its forgotten warehouse district. What he doesn’t expect is to be drawn into the very heart of the community or to catch the eye of someone he can’t shake.

Deputy Jim Williamson has always followed the rules. He’s spent his life serving his town, keeping his feelings under control, and staying well within the lines of what’s expected. But when Brock shows up, tall, confident, and unapologetically himself, Jim finds those carefully kept lines beginning to blur.

Their chemistry is undeniable. Their connection? Complicated.

As Brock fights to earn the town’s trust and Jim struggles to understand feelings he’s never faced before, their paths keep crossing in public and in private. But in a place where everyone knows your name and your business, desire comes with risk. And both men have pasts that threaten to get in the way of something real.

Told with warmth, wit, and depth, Discoveries of the Present explores what happens when a guarded heart meets its match, when pride gives way to vulnerability, and when two very different men find something they never thought they’d need: each other.

Perfect for fans of small-town queer romance, age-gap dynamics, emotional growth, and characters who take their time falling hard.

This is book two in the Brookstone series but can be enjoyed as a standalone.
