Summary
The stranger leaned against the stall and crossed his arms, still smiling. “So you’re the one who has to do all the dirty work around here, eh?” He winked.
The wink threw Ciro off. “Oh, I don’t mind,” he stammered out eventually. “I’m just lucky to be here.”
The man’s eyebrows shot up. “Lucky?”
Ciro found it hard to think, being the focus of this man’s attention. “Yeah. I love horses, and so working here, it’s a dream come true for me.”
“It’s a dream come true to spend the day shoveling shit?”
Ciro’s cheeks heated. “I-I do other things too, señor.”
The man threw his head back and laughed. “I’m just messing with you, man! What’s your name?”
“Ciro.”
“Nice to meet you, Ciro.” The man’s dark eyes danced like flames. “My name’s Eduardo, but you can call me Lalo.”
Ciro, an impoverished stablehand, catches the eye of the notorious narco Lalo Salamanca. After a whirlwind romance, Lalo whisks Ciro away to his private estate, where Ciro is forced to confront Lalo’s dark nature—and his even darker secrets.

Summary
Thomas Barrow had only wanted to get over his foolish crush on the insufferable Jimmy Kent, but somehow found himself in a brutal battle of courtship with FIVE men in an era where being...his sort was illegal at best. While trying to make sense of this dramatic turning point of his life, Thomas struggles with the darkness of his past. His position in the house as under butler is shaky at best, but there is an opportunity on the horizon, one that might be too good for Thomas to pass up.
Jimmy, Andy, Edward, and Philip have no idea who the fifth man is, but it comes as a surprise to the world when Thomas Barrow's dark knight finally reveals himself. Who is it? Who will Thomas Choose?
(Sybil is alive in this because I said so.)
