So Like, I Edited A Book 2: Stubborn Things
Have you ever heard people discussing the Boston Massacre? Do you want to learn more about that event and the actual "facts, [which] are stubborn things" (to quote one John Adams in his defense at the Boston Massacre trial) beyond the lore it's come to represent?
Do you want to do all of this while reading omegaverse MM romance with some hilarious historical side characters, a lot of angst, touching yet complex father-son relationships? Do you like your romance forbidden and secret?
Well then. Do I have the book for you, available on June 17th.
The book I edited now has its sequel, which is actually just 2/7 of the full set (all these works are standalones, though!)
“It’s not justice anyone wants! It’s vengeance! It matters nothing if you want justice when you’re the only one.”
Matthew Kilroy has never fit. Not in his home, where he was too big in a Quaker family that was already too big to feed. Not in the army he ran away to join, where he is desperate to be equal to his older comrades. Not in Boston, where the townspeople hate His Majesty’s soldiers.
Abijah Dawes is the most eligible omega in town. The only son of two only sons, he has a massive dowry, a Harvard education, and a clerkship under renowned lawyer John Adams. His only flaw, whispers Boston, is that he prefers raising objections to raising children.
Introduced by a snowball gone awry and united by a midnight robbery, Abijah finds himself drawn to the kindred spirit he senses in Matthew. While Matthew knows he is unsuitable for Abijah in every way, Abijah’s warmth convinces him that maybe, just maybe, he may finally belong at his side.
But when tensions erupt into gunfire, five people lie dead and dying on the cold streets. With Matthew imprisoned under the threat of a noose and Abijah desperate to spare his life, the secret affair that sustains them may also prove their undoing. Both must grapple with the limits of the law and love if they hope to create a life together… and if the mob and Matthew’s internal demons don’t steal everything first.
