Obsession
It was a simple assignment. Write an article about Val, the newest DJ on the scene. Behind his decks, he glows. Val doesn’t play music, he shapes it, radiates it. I’m not the only person obsessed with him. And when I save him from an attacker, he rewards me with a kiss.
Addiction
It’s careless, maybe, two men living together in 1995. We’re risking our jobs. But I’m as addicted to Val as he is to the pills and powders he uses to silence his ghosts.
Sanity
Walking away was the hardest thing I’ve ever done, but we’d become toxic. My life is good—I have a daughter and a satisfying career. There isn’t time to miss Val, even if he visits my dreams nightly.
Love
It was just a chance meeting in the grocery store. Val looks healthy. Clean. And the old fire flares hot between us. This could be our second chance at love, but are we risking everything we’ve overcome to be together again?

Like Cracks in the Sidewalk is a 78K tale of two bi men in 1995 who are living their lives day to day, riding the wave until it nearly swamps them. Content warnings are listed at the beginning of the book. Mental health, folks!
