WELCOMING THE RECLUSE

A reclusive veteran living on a mountain. A small-town doctor who’s also a single dad. What starts as an unexpected connection slowly becomes something more… but the past doesn’t stay in the past.

Welcoming the Recluse is a super slow burn, friends-to-lovers MM romance set in a small town, featuring two older single dads, a bi awakening, and all the hurt/comfort. It is book 7 in the Forestville Silver Foxes series (but can be read as a standalone).

Available as a signed paperback, ebook, and audiobook.

Releases 14 May.
