Blurb:
Terry’s had a
crush on his second cousin Justin for what seems like forever. He’s hidden it
as well as possible, knowing that the other man is out of bounds, forbidden
fruit. Second cousins getting together isn’t actually illegal, but for Justin
the relationship is too close—he just can’t contemplate them being together.
But when some
new information comes to light about Terry’s birth and his place in the family,
the whole game changes. Suddenly the relationship isn’t so impossible, and
things soon begin to get hot and heavy.

Excerpt:
Terry
deliberately averted his gaze as Justin tugged off his T-shirt and dove into
the pool. The last thing he needed was to see him topless. His libido was
already in overdrive and he was having trouble not jumping Justin’s bones. In
fact, the only thing that held him back was the fact that Justin was his second
cousin. They hadn’t been brought up particularly closely, so it wasn’t as if he
were lusting after someone he considered to be a brother, but still. They were
related and it was weird. Or it would be weird if anything happened between
them, which it wouldn’t, of course. It would be wrong and they both knew it.
Terry assumed
that was the reason Justin was avoiding him, anyway. They got on well and there
was an obvious spark between them, but nothing inappropriate had ever taken
place. For the most part, they acted as cousins should. Every now and again,
though, he’d catch Justin looking at him. Equally, Terry would drink his fill
of his cousin when no one else was looking. Apparently it was getting increasingly
difficult for Justin, too.
Right now, at
the annual summer get together at Terry’s grandparents’ massive house in rural
Warwickshire, the tension between them had never been higher.
What made the
whole thing ten times worse was that neither of them had come out. So ending up
together would be a double whammy for their families. He could see it now. Hey,
everyone! I’m gay—and so is he. We’re together. Now as you were.
He didn’t know
whether the reaction would be favorable or not.
He also knew that
part of his frustration about the situation was because he hadn’t yet seen any
point in coming out. His feelings for Justin ran deeper than he cared to admit,
and for that reason he hadn’t been in a relationship with anyone—ever. Not a
homosexual relationship, anyway. He’d had girlfriends back in the days when he
hadn’t realized what his urges meant, but since then he’d been by himself and
remained a virgin. He was surprised, actually, that no one in his family had
asked whether he was gay. He could only assume that because he was so private
generally, they thought he would only introduce them to someone when he felt it
was absolutely right. That was his plan, in fact. To come out and introduce his
partner at the same time. But until he got over this damn infatuation with
Justin, he was never going to be any farther forward.
His thoughts ran
on for several minutes until he was interrupted—and startled—by droplets of
cold water falling onto his bare shoulder. He turned. Justin stood there,
shaking his blond head and sending the droplets flying around. Apparently he
wasn’t avoiding Terry anymore.
It was hot and
he was wearing casual clothes, so Terry wasn’t bothered about getting wet, but
for some reason, he snapped at Justin. “For fuck’s sake, do you have to do that
here?”
Immediately
Justin stopped and stared at him. They’d never had a cross word between them,
not even when they were children. “Sorry, mate. I was just messing around. I
didn’t think it would piss you off.”
His blue eyes
were wide and Terry felt his irritation dissipating rapidly. He continued to
rake his gaze down Justin’s half-naked form. His broad shoulders and wide
chest, which was sprinkled with a handful of pale hairs. His toned stomach, the
six-pack nicely defined but not too body-builderish. His arms were thickly
muscled but suited his athletic frame. Deep-blue swimming trunks hid the area
he most wanted to see but he relied on the glimpses he’d had over the years and
his overripe imagination.
Thick thighs and
calves and, unbelievably, nice feet—he didn’t generally like feet—finished off
the package of perfection and Terry was suddenly extremely glad he had a book
in his lap, because his cock was beginning to swell and press against the
inside of his swimming shorts. He realized that a dip in the pool would be a
pretty good antidote—the chilly water should take the heat from his cock. And
if not, at least no one would be able to see the bulge unless they swam
underwater.
It was stupid,
really, trying to hide his erection from Justin. They both knew there was
something between them, and he wanted to bury his hard cock inside Justin’s
mouth or arse, not hide it beneath a fucking book.
He began to
wonder whether they should just get together, and to hell with the
consequences. It wasn’t illegal.
Justin sat down
on the sun bed next to Terry and flashed him a smile. “Am I forgiven, then? I
haven’t got your book wet, have I?” He reached out to grab the book, presumably
to try to dry it, but Terry slammed his hand down quickly, catching Justin’s
fingers beneath his in the process, not to mention giving his cock a bit of a
smack.
“No,” he ground
out, wondering how he’d managed to get even a single word to fall from his
lips. As soon as their fingers had touched he’d felt a spark that had run
straight up his arm and multiplied throughout his entire body. His ebbing
erection had immediately jumped back to attention, lifting the book slightly.
He hoped against all hope that Justin hadn’t noticed but he had no such luck.
The blond’s gaze
dropped to their still-touching fingers and, presumably, to the book and the
thing beneath it that had caused the movement. He stared for a few seconds that
felt like hours, then looked back up at Terry’s face. He opened his mouth then
closed it again. For the first time ever, it seemed Justin was speechless.
A huge splash
and a series of laughs from the pool broke the spell between them. Justin
snatched his hand back and raked it through his hair. He opened and closed his
mouth again, but for the second time nothing came out. He let out a heavy sigh
and stood up looking dazed. He appeared to have trouble putting one foot in
front of the other, as though he were drunk or had just woken from a very deep
sleep. Of course, only the two of them knew the real reason for Justin’s
behavior.
Finally Justin
got his limbs to cooperate, and he made his way across to the table that held
food and drinks, sheltered from the bright sunlight by a large, green gazebo.
Terry watched
him go, a tumult of emotions running through his brain. Disappointment,
confusion, anger, lust…they all assaulted him, though admittedly the last was
screaming the loudest, a fact certainly not helped by Justin’s damp and topless
state.
Now a feeling of
despair took hold of him. What the fuck was he going to do?
