THE JOCK SCRIPT is Available Now on Amazon KU!
THE JOCK SCRIPT is LIVE! mybook.to/The-Jock-Script
Woohoo! THE JOCK SCRIPT is here! The nerd, the coach, and the hookup… The complicated kind of hookup that requires a script to restore balance. LOL
Each book in the Script Club Series can be enjoyed as a standalone, however, you might also be interested in checking out Book 1, FOLLOWING THE RULES, and Book 2, RULES OF PLAY. And YES…there’s a nerdy holiday novella coming your way soon! Be sure to preorder your copy of THE HOLIDAY LIST!
Happy Reading! Lane xo
BLURB:
The nerd, the coach, and the hookup…
Asher-
Swipe left, swipe left, swipe left. Sure, the idea of a quick, no-strings intimate rendezvous via hookup app sounds oddly thrilling, but it’s simply not me. Or maybe it is me, because it happened…and I liked it. Until I realized he looked familiar for a reason. A bad reason. Now I’ve made a faux pas with the sexiest man on planet Earth, and my internal karma system requires me to fix it. Help!
Blake-
I may seem like I have it together, but the truth is, I’m a hot mess. I’m so deep in the closet that I can’t remember my real name some days. That’s okay. The benefit of one-night stands is anonymity. Until Asher. Not a total surprise. I’ve always had a thing for geeks, but I’ve never met anyone like him. He’s a pint-sized dynamo on a quest for perfection who can help me come out…if I follow his script.
Hmm. I’m in.
The Jock Script is an MM bisexual, geek/jock romance starring a bowtie wearing nerd, a sexy lacrosse coach, and a shenanigan inducing script!

STARTING FROM THE TOP is LIVE!
STARTING FROM THE TOP is LIVE on Amazon KU! 🎸A FAMILY STORY WITH ALL THE FEELS…Age Gap❤ Family (Kids, dogs, cats…the whole enchilada)❤ Hurt and Comfort
Johnny and Sean’s story is very special to me. The premise of the family you make and the people you choose is one I think so many people can relate to. And let’s be honest, it’s not a seamless endeavor. Making room for new people takes patience, time, and a willingness to accept that love isn’t always easy. Sometimes you have to work for it and maybe even make room for children and pets. But it’s oh so very worth it!
In Starting From the Top, Johnny is a free-spirited guitarist for a band who’s about to skyrocket and Sean is a no-nonsense businessman and a divorced father of two kids. An impromptu offer to teach Sean’s struggling son guitar turns into an unlikely friendship, and then…so much. I can’t wait for you to read their story!

Leaning Into the Look is LIVE!
Leaning Into the Look is here a day early! Woohoo!
https://www.amazon.com/Leaning-Into-L...
Grant and the oh-so fabulous Miles's story is the third full-length novel in my newest self-pub series set in San Francisco. (There are three short stories too!). There’s nothing I love more than a tale about two very different people who begin a journey as polar opposites and eventually realize they have more in common than they imagined. And better yet, they’ve found the person who sees them the way no one else can and challenges them to be more than they thought possible.
Miles is sassy and self-confident with a whole lot of fabulous and Grant is a good-looking guy with a great group of friends doing his best to please his traditional family. This is a humorous yet reflective story about finding and accepting the truth underneath “the look”. And yes, readers will have a chance to connect with the guys from the previous books in the series. However, if you haven’t read the others, don’t worry…all of my books can be read as standalones.
Here's the blurb from Leaning Into the Look:
Grant Kostas made a career based on his looks before joining his family’s real estate firm. He may not love his job but he’s better at sales than he thought. And when he’s poised to bring in the biggest account of the company’s history, even his father is impressed. Unfortunately, the extra attention highlights Grant’s personal life. His parents accept that he’s gay. They just wish he’d meet a nice Greek man.
Miles Harrison is a fabulous red head going through a rough patch. Between getting dumped by his long-term boyfriend and finding a new place to live in the city, he’s nearing his wits end. He’s not sure why he thought rooming with his boss’s friend was a good idea. Miles has had a crush on Grant for years. However, he knows attractive people aren’t always pretty on the inside. As the two men grapple with external problems, they form an unexpected bond of friendship and trust that feels like the real thing. The only way to know for certain is to let go of fear and lean into the look.
Happy Reading!

A Way with You is live on Amazon now. This novella is Book 2 in the short series I wrote for Felice Stevens' Memories of the Breakfast Club Kindle Worlds launch. At this point, it's only available in the US but I'm hosting a few giveaways. Be sure to stop by my FB group, Lane's Lovers for info.
https://www.facebook.com/groups/16202...

Happy Reading! Lane xo
https://www.amazon.com/Memories-Break...
Reeve Nelson is determined to make it in Manhattan. He’s hardworking, dedicated and willing to put in the extra hours required to be successful at his new job at a prestigious real estate firm in the city. There’s no way he’s going back to small-town living and an ex-girlfriend who won’t let go. But his boss isn’t making it easy.
Leo Rodriguez enjoys his reputation as a ruthless businessman. He’s a lone wolf who’s scraped his way from the gutter to rebuild his life and launch a distinguished career on his terms. When an opportunity to expand in the market comes up, Leo wants the eager new agent with a sense of wonder on the project. However, nothing goes quite as planned. Reeve expected to be intimidated and overwhelmed by Leo, but the explosive mutual attraction and fierce desire between them is a big surprise. Neither man is looking for love and yet, something special just might happen if they can find their way…together.

Leaning Into Touch Cover Reveal!
Leaning Into Touch will be here in two short weeks! Mark your calendars for October 5. I can't wait to share Josh and Finn's story. Check out the details on my blog along with information about joining my Lane Hayes fan group, Lane's Lovers on Facebook!
https://lanehayes.wordpress.com/2017/...
Here the blurb for Leaning Into Touch:
Josh Sheehan is unlucky in love and now… newly unemployed. He’s not sure what to do next, but he’s sure he should give up on romance. Especially after last time. His friends warned him that falling for the hunky Irishman was a bad idea. Josh can’t help feeling torn even though he knows it’s best to move on. But when an unexpected dose of family drama blindsides him, Josh finds himself leaning on the one man he’s supposed to forget.
Finn Gallagher is driven by success. He makes no secret that building a name for his tech company is his number one goal. Finn left home a decade ago with a ton of regret, a heavy heart, and a vow to never repeat the same mistake twice. However, there is something undeniably appealing about the self-deprecating man with the silly sense of humor that makes it difficult for Finn to remember why falling for Josh is a bad idea. It soon becomes clear they’re both in deeper than they intended. There is no way to remain untouched. And there is so much to gain, if they’re brave enough to lean in.
Happy Reading! Lane Hayes xo
