Derek T. Cole Part Five of The Harden City Chronicles:
Nate knows that falling for a straight guy is a bad idea - everyone, including his rational brain, tell him so. But sexy, masculine, athletic, and charismatic Chance keeps making it hard to back away. He takes him on dates, he cuddles him at night, and he keeps breaking the rules about keeping their hands to themselves.
Nate meets more people from the courtyard, including Byron, who turns out to be an excellent lover and a potential distraction from Chance. He also tracks down the Hunter he was asked to spy on, and turns over potentially damaging information about him to the rebels. Garth's relationship with Dean is put at risk as a result.
Finally Nate becomes so frustrated with Chance he seeks help from Parne - and Parne is afraid if Chance doesn't figure out where he stands, he'll lose Nate - as a roommate, or as potentially something much more significant.
Straight Man Blues II is a short novella and the fifth book in The Harden City Chronicles series. It's a gay romance urban fantasy with erotica.
