Roommate Not Wanted I'm a forty-year-old homeowner and former detective. My friends think a roommate is the solution to my recent funk, but I know that's the last thing I need. And even if they're right, sharing my home with Cal is a bad idea. The prickly SEAL rescue diver has muscles for miles, haunted eyes, a wounded soul, and wandering feet that won't be happy for long in Safe Harbor. Yet those fathoms-deep blue eyes have me making an offer I'll surely regret. Our arrangement may be doomed, but Cal is an amazing roommate. We're soon cooking my mom's favorite recipes, watching terrible TV, accidentally cuddling, and trying not to cross the line from friendship to fling. Until I discover Cal's sexy secret. Boundaries blur, and I forget I'm not supposed to fall for Cal. Every kiss, touch, and discovery we make together pulls us deeper until there's no denying our feelings. I want nothing more than to keep Cal in town, in my bed, and in my heart, but Cal seems destined to swim back to his solo ways. Can I bear to let him go, or will our love make him stay forever? MAKE ME STAY is a hurt/comfort roommates-to-lovers MM romance. It features two mature, wounded heroes, disability rep, a proud pansexual, a SEAL having a demisexual awakening, and sexy discoveries involving rope. Deep feels, dual point-of-view, and big fluffy HEA guaranteed. MAKE ME STAY is book two in the Safe Harbor series from acclaimed author Annabeth Albert. This small historic Oregon town has a tight friend group, memorable secondary characters, quirky businesses, and long-held secrets. Each book stands alone with a fresh couple, but the background mystery of the town's secrets ties the series together, making reading in order more fun!
