At
War With a Broken Heart
by
Dahlia Donovan
Genre:
M/M Contemporary Romance
What's
the perfect recipe for an emotional MMM romance?
One
autistic coffee shop owner, one morose mug maker, and a mostly
cheerful police detective.
Fie
Morogh Russell goes off to war with a broken heart and returns with a
shattered spirit. He hermits away in Bideford, Devon, making mugs,
with his service dog, Haggard, for company. Post-traumatic stress
turns every memory into a minefield, and life is dismal with one or
two rare exceptions.
Davet
Heuse drags his younger brother to Bideford for a new start. Both
autistic, the two siblings have fought hard to enjoy freedom by the
seaside. While Davet runs a coffee shop from his tiny house, his
brother pursues his dream at university.
Detective
Sidney Little has transitioned from military service to the police
force easily. His unrequited crushes and his estranged father are the
only points of frustration in his life. He hasn't quite figured out
how to deal with either problem.
When
a tragic accident brings Davet's world crashing down around him, can
Fie and Sid help him through the pain of loss?
In
this May-December romance with a twist, three men struggle through
one obstacle after the other to somehow find themselves in love on
the other side.
“You
refused to call me anything at all for years. And how is where I live
any of your business?” Fie honestly didn’t want to revisit their
failed relationship. “What’s changed? Did your latest fling kick
you out?”
“I
missed you. Us, even.” Edmund gestured towards Haggard, Fie’s
blue merle border collie service dog, stretched out across a blanket
in his corner of the pottery shed. “I can help. What can your old
mutt do that I can’t?”
“Help?
You broke me. You lost the right to put me back together.” Fie
wiped absently at the sheen of sweat on his brow; he hadn’t even
gotten close to his kiln yet. Why
am I suddenly overheating? “Sod
off with you back to your posh London penthouse.”
“I’m
sorry.”
“Hell.”
Fie dragged a hand roughly through his greying hair. His dark brown
eyes examined Edmund and found him relatively unchanged. Still
as selfish as ever.
He’d missed seeing the fault in his ex-lover’s personality until
far too late. “Well, I hope the apology made it all better for you.
I still feel like shite.”
“I’m
sorry.” Edmund was trying for heartfelt, but it came out sulky to
Fie.
“You
sent me off to war with a broken heart.” Fie stood up suddenly,
knocking his stool over. He dwarfed Edmund with his tall, bulky,
almost bearlike frame. “Now I’m shipping you off to London. I
imagine it’s far less dangerous than disarming explosives in the
desert, and you’re certainly not as emotionally shattered as I
was.”
Dahlia
Donovan wrote her first romance series after a crazy dream about
shifters and damsels in distress. She prefers irreverent humour and
unconventional characters. An autistic and occasional hermit, her
life wouldn’t be complete without her husband and her massive
collection of books and video games.
