His House, His Rules
One arrest. One spare room. Far too many house rules.
State trooper Sam Hollins expects the end of his shift to be uneventful.
Then a rainy Oregon rest stop puts Jerry Trent in his path.
Jerry has a backpack, a sharp mouth, nowhere worth calling home, and very little reason to trust a man wearing a badge. Sam has an empty guest room, an instinct for fixing problems, and a habit of making rules nobody asked for.
One meal becomes one night.
One night becomes a routine neither of them planned.
Soon there are GED forms on the kitchen table, grocery shifts, arguments about laundry, cowboy boots in inappropriate places, white briefs that become an ongoing joke, and a growing attraction that is considerably harder to laugh away.
Sam knows how to arrest someone.
Jerry knows how to survive.
Neither of them knows what to do when temporary starts feeling dangerously like home.
Good Cock, Bad Cop is a gritty, funny and unexpectedly tender M/M age-gap erotic romance about desire, protection, belonging and two men discovering that some of the hardest rules to follow are the ones they make for themselves.
From the Author
I wanted Good Cock, Bad Cop to begin with all the obvious ingredients: a cop, a pair of handcuffs, a young man with too much attitude, and enough bad judgment to make the situation interesting.
What surprised me was how quickly the story became about everything that happens after the cuffs come off.
Sam shows affection by cooking too much food, printing forms, giving unwanted advice and worrying about bus schedules. Jerry responds by arguing with him about almost everything. Somewhere between the jokes, the rules and the attraction neither of them handles particularly well, Sam’s house starts becoming something neither man expected to find.
The dirty parts matter. So do the pancakes.
